one of these days, maybe, you'll come to realize that there is no objective morality. there is only the winners that decide how everyone else will live. we all get a choice in who those people are.

i choose to live in a world where rational thought dedicated to furthering humanity and ending suffering reigns supreme. the benefits of that world far outweigh the losses that one generation would have to suffer to achieve it. it's just a simple trolley problem. if you can't see that, then you are blinded by emotions.

educate and build a compassionate society is obviously the correct answer, but we can't do that because there is a portion of society that will never let that happen. remove the roadblocks. anything less is being complicit in prolonged suffering.

there's only one way to fix idiots and sociopaths.

no, WE THE PEOPLE should have global networks that simply remove that kind of brain rot and delete the people that perpetuate it.

i never made any assertions about the documentary. i just don't want to watch it.

the way you keep saying 'you guys' is concerning though. are you a conservative?

i feel the same way about mowing the parts of my yard i don't tread in. something else needs that for habitat.

not gonna do that. i don't need to be convinced that cartels and gangs are dangerous and brutal. i wasn't born yesterday.

my question to you is where do you draw the line at who gets due process and who doesn't?

the right has gotten very good at public opinion chess. they keep putting us in checkmate situations where we have to defend the villains in order to oppose their authoritarian methods. most leftists and liberals fall for it - hook, line, and sinker.

i think it's time we stopped playing these games, flipped the table, and put a knife to their throats.

you have a point. we can't defend our institutions by making heroes out of what the public sees as villains. we can, however, say "yeah, most of these guys probably are violent criminals but that doesn't invalidate the rule of law and the right of due process". the former will not help change public opinion, but the latter might.

but i'm a bit of a paradox. i happen to agree with trump's methods. i still see him as a dangerous narcissist, but if i could take that same power and use it to deport evangelicals, capitalist sociopaths, and conservatives, i absolutely would.

it's a war. we just have to win it. by any means necessary.

but we can change that any time. change the demographic by arming yourself and not being one of those people.

speak up? how about get armed and coordinated?

this requires coordination. we have to work harder.

yes. you're right. i understand that it's more than that and that it's not really viable as an economic strategy, but i like to show support where i honestly can.

preach. it is for reasons such as what you stated that i fully give my blessing to women transitioning to men. level the playing field by any means necessary. this is survival.

i try to embrace my male archetype because i think the worlds needs strong men, but i have come to understand the feminist perspective and i don't think there's any conflict with masculine men being empathetic. as a matter of fact, i think a truly confident man doesn't need to worry about being vulnerable and is in touch with their feelings. the macho american culture is not who we are. it is an aberration directly resulting from abrahamic religious values being hijacked by sociopaths to pave the way for authoritarianism and further subjugation of women.

and i think it's up to all of us to break these insecure macho idiots down into kneeling before a new age of humanity. make them heel to understand that they were weaklings all along.

if people were serious about stopping this dystopia they would be armed and calling all others to do the same.

revolution when?

how about we just skip all that and have the leftists in this country grow a pair and do the right thing?

the individual is not the issue. it's the process. i'm not going to go to bat for some rando who might very well be involved in nefarious shit, but i will damn sure defend the idea that every person is allowed a chance to defend themself. this is the issue. people need to stop treating this dude like a saint. it could very well backfire.

in fact, leftists and liberals in general need to stop automatically assuming the opposite of everything a conservative claims is true. that's a fucking trap and it's illogical.
