If you study the successful rebellions and resistance and civil rights movements of the past, you will note that “people who spend their time publicly bumming out everyone around them by emphasizing how totally fucked everything is” do not play a central role, or indeed, any role at all

what i see is a white house whose ambitions outstrip its resources, who did not count on facing mass resistance, and which is scrambling to escalate the situation in hopes that a display of force will make people shut up

Oh I'm sure I got a few of those in the mail too! I was still pretty young in the early '80s so I had to hide them from mother. 😂

There is a whole host of reasons to be critical about every branch of the US military, but suggesting that anyone who signed up to join is immoral and unethical is just wacky.

This represents such a facile and shallow understanding of the military that I don't even know where to start. But I suppose a good start is that the majority of troops signed up when they were kids, often believing the lies they were told about what it would be like to be in service.

Tapping the sign AGAIN. Asking people repeatedly for alt text just adds MORE CLUTTER for visually-impaired users to wade through, and does NOTHING to help them access the fucking content. Do it yourself rather than being a fucking cop.
