I could ask what is, but there's no point in answering if you think I'm a bad faith actor. The conversation is basically over anyway, since you've withdrawn your effort.
The only reason I "glowed" is because the alternative is to perform the very dull back-and-forth that I can find on 4/pol/. It creates an unsubtle argument vacuum, with many baits like "why doesn't anything happen" and "no one will do anything" (designed to make lurkers consider violence while being too afraid to speak of it). I have no intention of allowing this space to fall into such a mire.
Did anything come of that New Zealand shooter that had his accelerationist stance on the society, or did a gun law get passed
Did you read his manifesto? That was one of the things he wanted, because it suited his accelerationism. He completed his goals. They just weren't good goals.
But don't sit there and advocate for anything that would get me killed or imprisoned
I actually would recommend peaceful solutions if at all possible. I have heard nothing to suggest how possible it may be over there. It's in the best interest of most governing bodies to keep its citizenry feeling like they have some method by which their problems can be resolved without violence. Especially a government which wishes to hold a monopoly on violence.
I do want the best for others, and for them all to decide what that entails. I suppose I'm being a bit of a stereotypical american by suggesting violence, considering how our independence came about.
But you are not here in Australia, and you do not know the social structure and just how compliant the people are.
I'd welcome any insight you have for this. I've heard another aussie poster here mention it, but he was a bit too mopey to strike at the heart of the matter.
I'll even be explicit and ask: are there peaceful options remaining for your country?
Take your walk backs
I have no idea what this means, is it an aussie curse?
Take a look at the protests from 21/8, and then look at the responses from officials. Notice how they didn't back down or even consider anything
Well, yeah. If you're a power-mad tyrant, you would never admit to a mistake or surrender power. You'd double down at every turn. Why should you care about some filthy peasants? Who has the authority to deny anything you declare?
We see this type of insanity often around here (as it fuels new topics of discussion for us), but we have no real means of correction. Luckily, most of the looneys don't achieve power over lives. From what I can tell, the expectation is that they'll eventually be eaten by their allies because all of their allies are power-hungry just like them. Terrible mess, though, and a real pity to behold.
