  • They can’t grab your fingerprints while you’re walking down the street minding your own business. And genetic samples are regulated. Them building a database of facial recognition in one of the most surveilled countries in the world should be a cause for concern. Think zero privacy. It’s the same with phones. We don’t want that information just out there, tracking every single thing. same concern. (For those of us that care about privacy, that is)

  • That’s part of the American mythos that’s honestly not much more than brainwashing. There is no “revolutionary American spirit.” Not since the country was founded, actually. Sure, leaving the British, but then…nothing. I don’t think we can call something that last happened in the 1700s “part of who we are.” We are the face of global hegemony and capitalism.

    We’re not all still sperm just because that’s how we became people, yknow what I mean?

  • The c(rule)ty is the point

  • Eh. I mean, the cruelty shouldn’t be our point. In revolution, violence against the monsters of the ruling class isn’t celebrated for being cruel—and laughing in his family’s face is undeniably cruel. We aren’t the cruel ones. They are, and comeuppance isn’t meant to be cruel, it’s meant to free us.

  • Say someone is holding a bunch of people hostage, at gunpoint.

    Is it justified to “murder” them?

    Now turn the gun into a massive industry that puts itself between people and healthcare in order to profit off the need for care. And turn that room full of hostages into 1/3 of the country.

    Morals are relative. If this CEO was in his truck running down the sidewalk crushing people, it’s justified to shoot them if you can.

  • Yeesh. I mean, chronically neutral people are fucking garbage, we can all agree. But the lack of nuance in political discourse and in the actual understanding and worldviews of seemingly everybody is a massive problem. People not even grasping that there can be nuance on issues is incredibly devastating to political discourse. Social media is definitely a big culprit, but the “catchphrase politics” era was most definitely part and party to this too.

  • They would never divert that money to air marshals because those are seats the airlines won’t be able to sell. They’ll spend millions to lobby against it, ironically.
