hateful*

I think a better question is, do YOU think that Israeli/Russian/Chinese people fucking suck, or do you only hate entire groups of people when it directly affects you?

Hating an entire group of people <> "suffering the right way"

I hope you becomes less of a hateful person. I'll leave you to it and hope our interaction inspires others to be less hateful and ignorant than you seem determined to maintain.

And it's Isrealis who are genociding Palestinians, Russians who are invading and killing Ukrainians, and Chinese that are genociding Uighurs, but it's ignorant and hateful to make blanket statements like "Israeli/Russian/Chinese people fucking suck," as any fully-formed person understands that having no control over a group you were born to does not indict you for the crimes of the very worst of that group.

Grow up.

Cis people fucking suck. In my experience most cis people, cis men especially, are extremely toxic, hateful and again, in my experience

Replace "cis" with black, or gay, or any other human descriptive to see how fucked up what you just said really is.

Your in my experience tag isn't softening your hate - "I'm just saying that in my experience black men are toxic." - see how that sounds? That's how you sound to everyone else.

Realize that you're being just as hateful as the shitty individuals who hate you for what you are, and choose something better.

You're half-right.

It's real, researched, well-produced journalism which is definitely a relic of the past at this point.

I don't think that's what you were saying, though. Since your opinion hinges on what "people have been calling" it, I think you probably don't watch it and believe that since it's an old show and format, it must be inferior to.. sound bites, inflammatory remarks, click/rage-bait, "X slammed Y," etc.

And that's sad.

That's not true.

It was also fun watching his leg break.

Dude. You're a badass.

not even that good at his job

There's no need to shit on public defenders to make your point.

If you're in America and not already 69 I'm not optimistic of your chances of making 70.

^ this person isn't worth anyone's time or effort. Ignore and/or block and don't fall into the trap of trying to use logic to change the mind of someone who didn't use logic to get there.

Launching a probe is so, so far away from what it would take to "grow a pair."

The people downvoting you don't want to be burdened with the understanding that their yelling at clouds in online forums isn't just worthless, it's the best possible response a fascist coup could hope for.

People get to feel like their shock and anger are being heard and their likes and upvotes comfort them that they're not alone. Then they go to sleep that night telling themselves that with a post that got that much traction, surely someone out there is going to go out and change something. But they're not, because they're making their own posts and comments, believing that they're also doing their part.

The Civil War, The Women's Suffrage Movement, Civil Rights - none of these things would have started much less succeeded if social media had existed then. People would still be posting today about how it's so reprehensible that white people can own another human, get their upvotes, and wait for someone else to do something about it.

I can't believe people don't want to drive their own swaskicar.

Big, tough words from another armchair revolutionist. It's easy to tell other people to put themselves and their families in harm's way when your "contribution" to the fight amounts to screaming at clouds. You call other people fools when you've thoroughly fooled yourself into believing that all your anger and hate in internet forums is comparable to real sacrifice.

Rules only matter when people demand their enforcement.

I'm not sure how that's possible. He appears to be the weakest, most fragile coward one could imagine.

I'm sure she's not as amenable to all the biblical rights that men have over her.

Jesus Christ, get fucked

As of this comment, I'm guessing the 3 people who down-voted this post do.
