“Let this radicalize you rather than lead you to despair” - Mariame Kaba
A better world is possible for us all. Let’s build it together.
Hey kids it’s shut the fuck up Friday. Here’s some friendly advice for when shit like this happens - you don’t have to say shit to law enforcement without a warrant. Get yourself a camera on your door to check when you have unexpected people at your door - I don’t even blindly open mine for contractors soliciting work.
The second he flipped his badge out the right move was to tell them to come back with a warrant and shut the door.
SHUT THE FUCK UP
I am vastly more concerned over the actual people being affected by this admin than destroying some stupid building. Who cares this much about the white house? Are we serious? Are we really talking about banding together to save the white house rather than the people being kidnapped and assaulted on the streets every day?
Gross. I wonder how this compares to the spyware Microsoft is doing with Windows and if that’s part of why it’s Mac only.
Are Mac users harder to farm data with and this is a path to drain them of useful info?
Uh oh my precious AI bubble!
What a strange first example where ostensibly you are expressing support for the pro slavery dude who did the beating with the cane.
IMO the question is more around when it starts having demonstrable negative effects on your life. Missing obligations to family and friends. Work getting done poorly. Not taking care of your own health. Stuff like that.
Where were any candidates representing the people?
Actually where there any Democratic elected officials at these protests? Without even looking into it we all know the answer.
100% keep it up comrade. If you hadn’t wrote something I probably would have for the same reason lol
What a terrible headline. We’re comparing opportunistic fascists to Zohran now? What the actual?
God bless you taking the time to entertain the incoherence of this comment. I fear it is fruitless here but I commend the effort.
Yet again China calls his bluff and proves to be right for doing so. The US is a paper tiger.
Jesus Christ this has the exact same vibe as the findings after we were finally able to go into Auschwitz.
Who is looking for an argument? You asked for an explanation?
Liberals love to call people calmly explaining things with impassioned language as “being fired up” as if caring about things or speaking on them with a modicum of authority is bad.
Thanks for your meaningful contribution to this conversation lol
Fuck Obama. What a slimy grifter he is. Hope and change my ass.
Edit: Liberals man. Obama was objectively a liar who campaigned as a progessive and governed like a centrist liberal. He spent his whole admin engaging in endless war crimes abroad while tirelessly working to destroy the left in our country paving the way for the fascist surge we are seeing today.
He could have done stuff to move us away from this path but instead doubled down on it. Go read a fucking a book y’all are remembering history with rose colored glasses.
Annnd there is the other shoe finally dropping. I am somewhat disappointed I was correct.
“Every government is just pulling on different levers and creating different flavors of the same problems”
This statement is so braindead because it ignores the INTENT behind why governments do things. It just boils all of them down to just being the same thing where all governments are trying to do the same things (which from the rest of your message must be conquest and domination if you think most countries would trade places with the US - I have to believe you are implying all the things that come along with “being America”) which is patently not true. Comparing the two largest super powers in the world right now demonstrates this clearly - the US and China have two wildly different governmental structures that are acting with wildly different intent both domestically and internationally. What are their goals? Why do they act the way they do? Why do they interact with other countries the way they do? Why do they have the problems they do? How do the policies exacerbate or relieve those issues?
Like do you think places with a lower standard of living just are like that because the people running the government just don’t give a shit for some reason? How do you think you have places where income is low but everything is affordable? Just dumb luck while governments be doing government things?
There are some constants in our world on the boundaries of class, but even then those do not manifest the same everywhere in the world because not every government treats the issue the same.
“Then you got all varieties of societal stuff” oh brother
Like I get it you didn’t drop your whole ideological world view in some Lemmy post you made taking a shit at work, but I just couldn’t help but eye roll so hard you resisted taking any kind of stance on anything. Shit just happens with no real rhyme or reason.
Ah the enlightened centrist take that succinctly avoids any kind of analysis of WHY things are the way they are. Things just are the way they are and that’s that I guess.
pushing internet lies as drama is funny or something I guess
Finally decided to bend the knee. What a loser.
