You’re what an internet turtle philosopher describe as “the pretentious dude at a party who thinks he’s got everything figured out. Really now? You figured out the meaning of life and you’re certain of it?”
Okay, then why do you care about human knowledge and want to learn as much as possible? What about the application of that knowledge?
Do you care about knowledge or wisdom?
To what end do you apply that knowledge?
To what ends will you acquire that knowledge?
This is plain dumb and the same rhetoric that got America into its fascist me first bullshit policy in the first place.
The system got hijacked. The people speaking out are getting arrested and deported to a foreign death camp. The US will course correct, or need help doing so.
Sit your militant LARPIng troll ass down and let the adults figure this shit out. A war is not good for either country, nor is a need for constant paranoia like you’re suggesting.
Yeah, blocked hexbear too.
Those people are absolutely fucking unhinged and do not engage in any sort of good faith argument.
After one round, I got name called, after round two asking for clarification, I just left.
Time is precious, the squirrels in my yard are more coherent than these chucklefucks.
Hell, even two crows would be better
No one is saying don’t make thrilling drama. But there’s a wildly successful British baking show that proves wholesome works too.
Instead of defaulting to cynicism and worshipping money/power, let’s make some thrilling drama that don’t involve shitty rich people.
I bet you watching rich fuckers eat shit would sell very well given the current climate of neo-feudalism
Not necessarily. Smart people have interesting lives too.
You don’t lose a character arc just because you have more than two brain cells
The goons in John Wick have more credibility than cops. I’d love a franchise where it’s just John Wick gunning down these IRL goons and knock it off with this thin blue line propaganda horseshit
I do agree with and appreciate the nuance, it’s clear from your careful wording you understand conservatism by definition doesn’t have a cause to stand for, hence reactionary. It’s apt in a good faith discussion.
My problem is supplying ammunition for bad faith discussion. Like what “libertarians” are to conservatives. They’ll claim they’re not conservatives, they’re just libertarians. All the while supporting the same goals with a different name.
Just call it what it is. It’s fascist. It’s the fascist party. All of these - afd, maga, same unimaginative shit.
Inventing new terms is what these fuckers want. Remind them they’re not new and been wrong before.
I didn’t realize muscle was so flabby
At least then they could afford to have a heart attack. Heck, have two
They can issue orders. Not all are legal. But since they replaced the JAGs, this might be closer to reality.
Well, AOC is often only referred to by her initials
Actually, I think it shows how susceptible people are to what media tells them. The word is getting out to resist and organize. Traditional media doesn’t have full control, but it is working to slow the reaction down.
Furthermore, people have a much tighter leash to their corporate overlords/sponsors, they have to be strategic about which protest (if they even have the energy).
So yeah, it’s dumb and circumstances. But we’ve been been engineered down this path for the past few decades, it’s coming for you too.
Fuck capitalism.
Get this sanewashing propaganda shit outta here.
You’re saying there’s a corner of the bathroom not smeared by the diarrhea shitstain and spinning it as good news.
Someone still has to clean the mess. Fuck you.
Get this sanewashing propaganda shit out of here.
More reason to get off Google maps
I think the bigger issue isn’t even cost. Fuck, most people in CA can deal with $30 if the process was instant. Let’s not pretend that’s what stopping people
The real issue is taking the day off from work to wait your ass in DMV lines when you really rather just stay home in bed if you’re gonna spend a day not grinding down to a mental break
Wealth tax can treat early infections if used aggressively enough.
You’ll need surgery to treat the current condition.
It’s not meaning. It’s just a mechanism. It’s the canvas to what we do and ascribe meaning to.
Then again, our “meaning” might simply be a mechanism to another system
