Make sure to agree and amplify. Women are also the victims of trans-male gaze. The violence against women's liberation perpetuated by bi and pansexual men is still causing real harm to our fight for equity.
Maybe they're looking to make a live action adaptation of The Corpse Bride?
I don't disagree at all with your statement on workers, but when I'm currently working at a mega corporation that quite literally has carboard cutouts of Fauci, with a 6 ft. diameter ring taped to the floor around each, telling people to social distance, I have a bit of a different perspective on holding companies accountable for the retarded covid rules they put in place.
Reality check for anyone that has not fully torn the veil from their eyes: the 2 parties are an illusion. The Republicans aren't even a "lesser of 2 evils" option. This idea that you have to hold your nose and compromise on the neocon/neolib is how both sides of political spectrum feel, and that situation is how these people maintain their rule together.
I'm really only posting the Odysee version to avoid sending you to YouTube.
surely not feeding them will starve them out and they'll either radicalise or leave, right?
I wish. Unfortunately, they have become self-sustaining. The perpetually aggrieved have all found eachother on the internet and now no longer require any participation by the sane.
Once again, I wish you all could watch this Odysee video right here in the thread, rather than following the link.
The title of the video/thread is pretty self explanatory. Upper Echelon Gamers uses research from Tel Aviv University to explain where SJWs come from, how their victimhood complex functions, and why they thrive on social media.
Conflict is inevitable, and everything must be approached with that in mind.
We were the people that were willing to face conflict of words. While there are many cowards that couldn't even do that, now we're faced with the reality that words weren't enough. There are just too many that are just too weak willed.
I understand how you feel, because I was one of the fools that thought we could still rely on reason and debate. In fact, I am guilty of having directly argued with people calling for more aggressive tactics, saying that we need kindness to build a larger group of allies. Look what good it did.
However, I will ask that you don't judge us too harshly. We weren't ready to see it yet. Hell, I still don't think we're ready to do what is necessary, even for those of us that can see it now. Even if I want to do my part, it doesn't mean that I know exactly where to start.
gasp how racist!
But seriously, if you put in genuine thought on the subject, it is absolutely horrifying how a group can have their cultural identity mutilated to such an extent. Not only are the factors that are identified as "blackness" in the United States so cartoonish to the point of mocking history, but any actual historical heritage is completely lost. Look at this clown. She is so dark that you can tell her family immigrated to the US not that long ago. She is not descended from slaves brought to the new world. Yet, she has completely adopted whatever you want to call that. I fear what waits in store for the little culture that is left in the world.
Honestly, OP is feeling a bit redundant. If any of us are surprised they would continue doing what they do, I don't know what to tell you. They'll keep chasing and we'll keep slipping between their fingers, until one side dies out or morphs into something new.
When you smash one large spider and then a hundred smaller spiders flee in every direction from the corpse, it becomes exponentially more difficult to utilize spider smashing resources effectively.
They're going to always target whatever has the greatest share of normies, which isn't here.
Wtf is this? I know we're basically a free speech message board, but I'm not sure this belongs here...
The best part is that they are genuinely afraid of actual extremists that oppose them. Given that they will never stop calling you an extremist until you act exactly the way they want, you are left with a tough decision. Do you stand by your morals and inevitably get forced to kneel, or do you give them the monster they were pretending to fight all along?
This gets at something I noticed right after the election, when Biden was crowned by the media and all the stories about Trump disappeared.
The anti-Trump/pro-lockdown people were propagandized to the point of subconsciously making the mental connection between Trump and lockdowns, at least where I live. Suddenly, as if out of nowhere, the people that were most vocal about disliking Trump and wanting people to just "listen to Fauci" were not cool with the lockdowns. It's as if they were confused why they were still in timeout.
I can't speak for the other states, but even if Biden were just going to only bail out CA, they're going to need to print a LOT more money.
People are going to learn one way or another. If you're going to abandon big tech because it is tyrannical, then you better go all the way and act like you're dealing with a tyrannical foe. Pol was right again. People are just larping.
this isn't a game anymore...
How right he is. The trouble I always found with the MAGA crowd was the naïveté of the movement. Maybe that's the crux of why I could never really call myself a Trump supporter, given that his actions didn't always portray the seriousness and urgency required against the enemy he faced.
Regardless of what Trump and his populism accomplished or failed to accomplish, it is clear to me now, unfortunately in retrospect, that our enemy requires the respect of subtlety.
This is the point of no return boys. Even the most basic gripe against seemingly minor globohomo propaganda will out us as enemies of the establishment; all in due time as the noose continues to tighten. If you aren't willing to lose everything, close this page now and never look back. I won't think anything less of you for at least coming this far.
For those who think their convictions are stronger than flesh and bone, know that death and worse may await many of us; regardless of victory or loss.
Fighting for liberty is going to take a level of seriousness beyond just sharing memes, although that will still have its place. The fight against authoritarianism is going to need to go underground, and will require blood. The friends and family you simply argued with are going to become informants to the state, just as they have become liabilities to your rights.
If you want to guarantee that you, or maybe only future generations, are allowed a level of freedom which we were privileged enough to have tasted at all, then it's time to get to work.
Isn't it a compliment to get hit on by a dude?
Quick! What are you wearing? We need to know whether you were asking for it. ;)
Definitely part of it. Another aspect is that the NPC meme is real. So many people just absorb headlines and only want to know the details of the newest Netflix capeshit. They were never going to come close to processing the philosophical battle and were destined to go with the default "hey! that guy's a racist!" counter.
I'm a bit disappointed that Odysee videos don't get embedded in the thread when posted. I guess it can't be helped, given that I'm always going to post alternative media over youtube.
This video is from Upper Echelon Gamers, a channel that obviously normally covers gaming reviews and industry news. I would not be surprised if he was one of us, since he seems like he would fit right in.
As the title implies, this video is about what he sees as the reason for society in the USA tearing itself apart.
Don't bother repealing 230. The tech companies are going to need to be completely dismantled. Their offices might need to be taken by force.
It's funny, but not really, how just last night I was thinking about that time from 2014-2016 when intellectuals were discussing the coming madness. That was the time for words. Yet, we ended up here all the same.
Oh well. Never let them say that we didn't give every opportunity to resolve this amicably.
Could get spicy
Everyone imagines themselves as the hero; however, heroic figures are only idolized because of their incredible rarity. We can't all be right when bragging about saving the day.
When taking the time to self-reflect, I only see how pathetic I am for not having the courage to step forward and risk becoming a martyr. Not being a braggart isn't enough.
Meh. Their ideology is nothing but hatred with a thin veneer of framing for justification. I've no doubt what I wrote will be close to what they actually say, given enough time. Everyone is on the chopping block.
