i’m still holding out for some federal agency or the joint chiefs to step in and stop this administration. that would be a hell of a lot easier than depending on the people to do it.

and if we had a time machine we could fix all this. STFU. GUNS.

you could be dead either way. why not take some with you?

how about who cares? we have to take a stand for humanity at some point, the law be damned

it’s not about me or you. it’s about the generations that follow us.

and yeah, if the ends justify the means, then the ends justify the means.

civil liberties are for those who are civil. i’d put the entire southern US (and parts of the western red states) in reeducation camps without a bit of guilt if i knew it would ensure generations to come wouldn’t have to suffer living alongside people who deny basic reality. if the end result is less suffering, the ends justify the means. it’s just logic. sometimes you have to divorce yourself from reactionary emotions.

not all Jews are religious

i too am a human with an ethnic background

please don’t defend religions

all abrahamic religions always were. destroy them all. people still believing in gods in the 21st century are a liability to the welfare of this planet. the easiest solution is the obvious one. build a better world. start today.

you mean like in the same way that learning an instrument takes time and dedication?

yes. we are cancer. i live on as little as possible but i don’t delude myself into thinking my actions have any effect on the whole.

i spent nearly 20 years not using paper towels until i realized how pointless it was. now i throw my trash out the window. we’re all fucked. if we want to change things, there’s only one tool that will fix it. until people realize that, i really don’t fucking care any more.

brian eno is cooler than most of you can ever hope to be.

Here we are using recycled bags, banning straws, putting explosive refrigerant in fridges and using led lights in everything

lol, sucker. none of that does shit and industry was already destroying the planet just fine before ai came along.

because the american citizen was not the target. an al-quaeda operative was the target. the kid happened to be in close proximity.

oh well. i guess there’s nothing else you can do but put your head under the boot.

guns

you still don’t seem to grasp the point i’m trying to make.

how do you think we defeat the fascists? with hugs?

of course everyone thinks they’re the good guys. no one thinks they’re the villain, but you and i know who the good guys are, right? no? well, you can end up in a pile with the rest of my enemies.

you don’t get it, do you? whoever wins the war we are in gets to decide who the good guys were. there is no compromise. there never could be. it’s always been a war. and it will be over when one side capitulates. don’t be on the losing team.

you think the other side won’t do whatever it takes to win? they’re doing it now. do you want them to win? then you need to be prepared to do whatever it takes to stop them. THIS IS HOW WARS WORK. don’t think we’re in one? you’re delusional.

it’s okay when the good guys do it. it’s not ok when our enemies do it. goose and gander comparisons should never be made if it justifies your opposition. i’m just trying to get people to understand how wars work. “by any means necessary” is what it takes to win. if the victory defeats an existential threat to humanity, then whatever it took to do it was justified.

the point is that it takes messy solutions sometimes. we need to come to peace with that if we want to truly resist the current administration. you can’t stay on your high horse forever if you want to survive.
