the point of using violence to contest control is to diminish the opposition's will to continue to commit violence, and then to demonstrate that it lacks that will. where you suspect that the opposition begins without the will for that contest, creating it by shooting first is a bad play.

As I did the last time this discourse made the rounds on this site, I invite the ppl cheering this act to read up on the ways that the extremist anti-abortion movement talks about/justifies violence & then sit and think for a moment about how much overlap there is btwn what they say & youre saying.

it's incredible that not only did they pick this battle over Eric Adams of all people, but they triggered an escalating skirmish with the judicial systems strongest fraternity - a nominal ally! - in the process. I can't believe how dumb they are

*wispers* People aren't actually trying to be healthy, they're trying to signal that they are virtuous by appearing healthy by the (insanely fucked up) standard of our time. It's the root of all the RFK stuff.

Genuinely stunned by how hype i am for this Four Nations final. I'm not a hockey guy. the wrestling promo stuff helped, but this kind of quick one-off tournament has actual stakes and thats so cool. really feels as big as anything in hockey maybe outside a gold medal olympic game

think a big part of it is related to this. wonder if the age gap looks different for non-marriage relationships, and if so which direction

this is a huge element of why the NBA desperately needs its media partners to kill off ringz culture btw. You want your fans to celebrate any and all success to forge those connections. If, say, winning the playin game to make the playoffs is construed as meaningless, in the end, then why care
