so you think no one online ever does anything, huh? I'm already preparing. Voting isn't enough... Resistance is best when organized, and I'm advocating for my union to take steps to be ready as well as taking them myself. I'm not standing by idle. I campaigned in election season to help fight it there. And now that we lost the election, I'm taking other measures.

...do you think I'm saying this shit as "oh yeah, you'll be fine if you fight back, nothing bad will happen"? Do you think I'm saying to only fight back with thoughts and prayers? There's never any magical victory.

Anne frank was a child. 16 years old. Not old enough for self determination in the united states(barring some exceptions).

Genocides happen when people don't stand up to stop them. Everyone needs to fight against encroaching evil, in ways small or big, to stand a chance to fight.

I don't see how the blanket statement is an issue. "Bad taste in your mouth" isn't exactly a great argument for or against something.

Fascism is evil. People need to fight it.

Yeah. There's, quite frankly, no real risk of censorship on such a platform to begin with. Kinda takes out the whole point of federation for it

Hopefully, we can stop it

Politicians kept those fucks on

You applied a perversion of my logic.

I did not say all immigrants were cowards. I said "people who emigrate in response to things getting bad are cowards."

You not reading my sentence in full and instead splicing it to fit your image of me is a tad annoying.

Effectively, I'm saying those who flee at the start of when things get bad instead of trying to stop it are cowards. If you can make a difference, you should. That's my viewpoint in life.

"Going somewhere for a better life" is not what I'm against. "Refusing to attempt to stop the decay of your current space" is what I'm against. People like the leadership dems, who flop down in the face of a foe. That's cowardice.

It's an understandable thing to do. That won't stop me from thinking they're cowards.

Not if you have a COLA raise built into your union contract :3

That's really strange that you think people are purely determined by their parents.... Like, seriously, what?

But sure, founded by. A nation isn't determined purely by it's founders. That still hasn't explained how this is relevant to what I'm saying.

Again, I'm very confused on how that's relevant to what I'm saying

Wow, you guys actually think you don't have any responsibility to fight fascism. No wonder it won so easily.

Allowing your local industries to be dominate is common sense. As much as china is smart to subsidize theirs so heavily, the united states isn't wrong to tariff them

He has health insurance. That's what the union episode is about even

I fail to see how those genocidal people have any bearing on my statement.

floors me that it's widely accepted that soldiers murdering soldiers in war isn't murder

Because it's not. Murder is one sided. War, you are fighting. It's not 1 sided. It's killing, and can easily and is often morally reprehensible. But that does not make it murder. Civilian deaths are still murder in a war.

It's not defanging language. Its using it as it is.

Yes, usa car companies are bitches. But it is laughable that you think the reason it isn't more expensive has nothing to do with being subsidized

People who emigrate in response to things getting bad are cowards ...

I mean he is hopped up on several drugs at all times.

I can't imagine even a billionaire doesn't understand what firing thousands of people does to their lives.

He probably doesn't really

I've never had that experience with reddit. I see so much again
