Ahh but you see they also revile fat people.

That would be tragic, but indications point to him being actually ideological

For once I would like to see the powerful people feel devastated

Bioregions now!

Which I guess is a kind of loose line in itself, based mostly on water tables, but I like how it emphasizes land stewardship.

Oh well that specifically wait and see, sure. But obviously it shouldn’t move the needle on your opinion of the state of Israel and their unconscionable siege of Gaza, is what I meant.

Well yeah, but we’ve got plenty of facts already. Decades of facts, in fact.

It’s like climate change. Yes, we’re constantly learning new things, but the fact that we are in crisis is not disputable.

We have more than enough facts to condemn and convict Israel and Netanyahu of crimes against humanity.

Same thing here. There was a brief period where I thought I could just worry about my own affairs, get a little informed, then vote once in a while — trusting there were adults in charge of the boring business of government, with our collective best interests in mind — well, fuck me for assuming those that seek power would know how to use it responsibly, because now I’ve got to get involved in my local politics and activism just to be a good citizen Ig. But God damn do I wish I could just focus on handling my own personal shit, because that is hard enough on its own, let me tell you…

Maybe the real antifa were they maga who kept killing each other along the way

Something tells me soy is about to get a real big brand facelift soon

Not nearly enough names. Keep going. I want to be shocked and dismayed. I want to find my blind spots. I want the names of people I thought were allies. And then I want us all to have a great, international cultural reckoning to ensure this doesn’t ever get this far again.

Good work, Italians! 🤌🇵🇸🇮🇹

They also aim to slay hope in a livable future, because hope allows us to imagine a world different/better than our current one. And to see just how thin the membrane is between that world and this grey, futureless one that they’ve constructed.

Previously, I wouldn’t have believed someone so sick with fear and hate could exist.

God speed!

I’m curious why you used @ in your comment—oh I see, you’re on a mastodon server, cool!

Yeah since his death I watched a couple of videos and he is was so robotic and insincere. Like he would just cut off his opponent if he detected a keyword that relates to some lukewarm rebuttal (that anyone with a passing familiarity with the topic would see through) and use it as a rhetorical trap, to stop having a thinking debate and pivot to simply spewing talking points.

Smelling the feculent turn, the crowd would then cheer and whoop him on as he would pile on more and more bullshit over the original dishonest dump.

Then his Move: he would ask a question based on this insincere tower of turds. He would repeat it, it’s a simple question, right? Just answer the question.

Obviously the original point is buried under several layers of shit by this point, so it’s hard to tell what the debate was even about…

I think that’s what honest people failed to realise when debating Kirk. It wasn’t about anything other than winning the debate.

Yeah just like send an email to a journo, call a quick conference, say it in a meeting, or even just post it on social media: Palestine is a sovereign nation and it is under siege.

And the “West” is currently helping them commit genocide.

Food didn’t actually spill and video doesn’t even show anything breaking. Bah! I’m happy it worked out, but I was kind of hoping to see a tragedy within the bounds of human comprehension for once.

This is why I’d be a bad politician. I couldn’t stomach pretending that the party leadership cares about democracy or fair play

Damn that is excellently put.

Very understandably, most reasonable people are uncomfortable with violence* but then we seem powerless at the state level to stop the gradual rise of violent ideology that everyone knows will end in classes of vulnerable people who are no longer protected by the prohibition on non-state violence.

* state violence that is part of the script of life isn’t scary for some reason though.
