Crime rates maybe go down because you’re going hyperbolic with the state monopoly on violence but also that kind of authoritarian regime often has control over the data. When you don’t care for process you generally don’t care for integrity.

Idk man, i forgot his name since i commented. Fast news cycle cuts both directions. Visuals and memes have a little bit more lasting impact. Punch nazis kid is much easier to remember.

Idk what you mean. I’d rather remember a good person. If his goal was attention then he failed utterly as the other kid got the credit

This post is the first time I’ve heard of him and I’ve seen the video and memes. At least for me you’ve done more to promote awareness of him than anyone else including spud himself.

Couldn’t agree more. To serve and protect would have been to take the scalding, not their life. If you’re an officer the standard of conduct and consequence must be higher than for the citizen.

DON’T UNDERESTIMATE FASCISTS.

They’re as much attracted to the ideology as they are to the strongman. It gives then an escape from facing their own insecurities and failures. It might be an internal fight but they will find their next man-god.

An opposition will need pressure at that time to take notice and action

Is it so hard to hold in your mind the concept that multiple countries may be evil?

Or are you just saying one is worse than the other? If so, why even? They both need dismantling.

I haven’t generalized anything beyond the extents of

1. my area geographically
2. The groups in my area which i interact with
3. An individuals weight within a community over time.

I have not said it’s impossible to do for me and have made no claim on the ability for others to do it.

I’ll give you so much as i didn’t append “for me” or “in my situation” to every sentence, but the statements lay within the context provided in the rest of the post.

I’m not denying it’s technically feasible. I do deny learned helplessness. I have limited energy in life. Using it on making a change I’m not passionate about is a recipe for severe burnout. If i get more involved and find there’s sentiment towards a migration away from FB then I’d spend some energy on building and facilitating that. Barging in and making demands isn’t an effective way to build community. You can introduce ideas and develop them over time to show that it comes from care for and dedication to the org.

So yeah it’s unrealistic on the time scales I’m concerned with.

resorting to going to school instead of looking for work

I think they looked for work before considering more debt.

Ah shit you’re right! They’re going to love having their social media on stevesbasement.social. So accessible to the general public!

They’ll ghost you even if you do give them everything they ask for. I can’t even make a new account under my real name or anything close to it anymore.

It sucks it’s the only realistic platform for discovering and getting info from interest groups in my area.

I prefer complaining and screaming loudly while ‘barely surviving’.

No thats just how american law works lmao

They’re replying in context with the post. Luigi is not a criminal and will not be one unless/until convicted by the court.

If you’re speaking in generalities then that is the nuance that needs clarification in your earlier comment.

Technically it would just be “suck” he wouldn’t let other people get him “off”/finish the job because that would be a sexual act.

The Dollop Podcast

She’s been resurfacing every 3-6 months to give a bad take as well as ruining DNC electoral strategy for 30 years now.

She’s respected in the DNC politic because of her “experience” but her experience is having the wrong take every time.

I guess she also has money and can keep quiet about the nefarious sexual exploits of her colleagues.

Streaming on Prime Video!

Seriously don’t be a dick, just absurdly relevant.

Simple compliments help a lot too. "Nice work!“ or whatever can really make sometimes day!

A weird assumption that an occupation would cut down corruption.
