I genuinely think shit like this is what promotes antisocial behavior in children. As in clinically antisocial, not just a synonym for introverted.
Children learn hundreds of new words and new things every week. That’s their entire purpose in life at that age.
Deliberately lying to them about how basic reality works for extended periods of time is likely what causes the neural short circuits of religion and conservatism.
There’s no problem with someone equipped to handle violent situations being present.
The problem is if they unnecessarily escalate and get involved instead of standing by.
The solution is to dismantle the entire police system and rebuild from scratch with accountability and training.
We just need to vote for the Democrats one more time and they’ll finally do something about it right? That’s what all the funny memes here tell me. The democrats that are literally sponsored by police unions and advertise that fact endlessly.
“They were valid military targets. Hamas is in the hospitals. Hamas is in the tunnels. Hamas is in Tel Aviv.”
“Just a little genocide is worth it to save democracy. Look, I made a funny trolley problem meme to prove it.”
“There is no genocide.”
They are objectively better insulation than polyfill lmao. Anyone that’s ever worn real down in actual conditions that require it would agree.
You had an argument in the ethical right and then threw it all away with ridiculous hyperbole.
The problem people have with your argument is not the existence of 5.1 surround sound.
Nor is it that the vast majority of households can’t afford a properly tuned surround sound setup instead of haphazardly throwing speakers around which arguably creates a worse experience than stereo.
It’s that the Dolby implementation requires publishers to license it and pay for an unstoppable ad that plays before every session, while benefitting only the petit bourgeois.
Notice how you reverted so quickly to your capitalist brainwashing. May be a good inspiration to see what other ideologies have been implanted into you.
In North Korea, the security forces have no legal obligation to actually stop crime or protect citizens, even if the incident is happening right in front of them while on duty. They are more concerned with enforcing party principles, protecting oligarchs, and the status quo.
Lmao what trite contrarian bullshit, you yourself asserted your high value in this same comment thread.
Get over yourself.
I make more btw, cheers!
My brother in leftism, it can be both. They can be homegrown fascists that are in bed with Putin.
If you seriously don’t think the NRA is a Russian proxy, you have not been paying attention at all.
A dozen senators don’t fly to Moscow on the 4th of July to courier a handwritten letter to Putin just for fun.
Russians hacked both Dems and Repubs and yet only released the Dem files.
Along with the literal thousands of other blatant links between them.
I’m hearing a lot of OG Homeworld fans turned off by this one.
Instead of retaining unique charm, they spent a shitload of money on generic video game story #6 and generic wet-looking cutscene render #4.
Simultaneously, many core gameplay mechanics were dumbed down and made more palatable for the masses.
It’s a tough pivot to make, but what else are fans of the genre gonna play hahahah
Liberals pulling out a Merriam Webster definition and acting like they’re the holy good guys while making no effort to understand what liberalism even is…
Is such a liberal move I’m not even surprised anymore.
Enjoy your right wing echo chamber, real funny how that always happens when liberals and fascists get in a room together.
Yeah it’d be crazy if peaceful protests were violently attacked by right wing terrorists and the cops just joined in on the beatings
If the Supreme Court started ignoring precedent, which they stated under oath they would not do, and started saying cases have standing even if the damaged entity literally is a hypothetical that has never happened
If the largest union action in this generation was stomped down and made to heel
If a violent mob literally stormed the capital while Congress was in session certifying an election and were not all prosecuted as domestic terrorists and hanged, under the most advanced security state in the world that knows exactly who was there using cellular pings
Let me guess, you’re going to say the same thing in 2028 except all these things will have gotten worse and if we just hold our noses and tolerate it one more time the Blues will fix it all, just like they did in 2020 and 2012 and 2008 and 1992 and……….
Since you seem to lack the intelligence needed, I’ll enlighten you! It’s Trump! He will win because Democrats would rather lose than run a viable centrist candidate.
But that’s weird, I could have sworn all you blue MAGAts promised the exact same thing in 2019. Our democracy is at stake, we must vote Blue no matter who to stop fascism.
That’s weird, I could have sworn the same thing happened in 2008 and 2012 as well. I had so much {{{hope}}} but all that happened was a retail debt fueled spending spree and no healthcare. Oh right, the banking industry must have been punished for that, surely? They didn’t just shift the bubble to permanent debt like student loan backed securities and securities fraud?
Damn they said that in 1992 and we got Glass-Steagall repealed. But look we ran a federal surplus, hooray all is well!
It’s so strange, I keep holding my nose and voting blue no matter who but the US keeps getting more right wing and capitalists keep consolidating power.
Can you explain why this time will be totally different? After all, according to your logic, if a vote for not-Biden is a vote for Trump just like you say, then a vote for Biden must be a vote for Trump as well?
I mean, we voted blue so there should be plenty of examples of Democrats taking material action to reject fascism and the wholesale plunder of the working class by capitalists, right?
The blues will fight back this time, right? They’ll reverse the line, right?
You just plow through them, there’s not really much a ship that size can do
The good thing is, sea life of any kind will stop being a navigational concern within our lifetimes!
Liberals: leftist Lenny instances are simultaneously so strong they determine the outcome of a national election yet so weak that they are fringe ideologies and nobody in real life thinks like that
Really not a good look when you continue to align more and more with fascists, as liberals always do when faced with fascism
The problem is for those of us who go out of our way to make women feel more comfortable and safe in male dominated environments, hearing women treat you with the same disdain as a sex pest just makes you stop giving a shit.
Which again, I’m sure has happened with other “women when x occurs” memes as well.
Overall very eye opening. I’ll hold my own doors and stop moderating conversations I guess. Just keeping to my own business.
This entire issue is clearly just another culture war wedge being pushed by right wing think tanks except the target audience absolutely ate this one up as well as the victims.
Hahahahahhahaha, always so cute when they act like this.
As if this is some great “gotcha” that has never been thought of before.
And then what? After they seize the company, they continue operating and working there except the profits go to them and not some lazy parasites.
Mate are you seriously saying System of a Down is a non political music act
In hindsight it was pretty fucking obvious when TD was regularly inspiring terrorist attacks and was allowed to thrive while CTH got banned for saying 17th century slave owners deserve death
I straight up see top comments calling for the death of all black people on front page subs lmao
A 5 point harness like what the pilots wear would be better
But we’re talking about people who couldn’t even wear a little fucking mask outdoors that doesn’t even restrict airflow without having a meltdown and shooting people so….
