And I don't care how sh!tty the excuse gets. If it has even the slightest chance of helping even one person, I'll give that sh!tty excuse with all my heart.

Rules only matter if the rest of the world plays by them; and the rules the rest of the world have decided to play by are the rules in which we need to give awful people sh!tty excuses to treat good people like people.
comment in response to post
I took your advice. Over the past 24 hours, I played a game where the rules were, if I sung about all the injustice in the world while dancing like I was in a Broadway musical, they'd all go away. It doesn't seem to have worked.
comment in response to post
So, your solution to awful people having power is... Wishing they didn't? If any progress is to be made, we need to play the hand we're dealt
comment in response to post
Yet this is still something we need to talk about because, to the people pulling the strings, it's all that matters.

There are the same people in every demographic. There are plenty of people who would be Marjory Taylor Greens but were either born a minority or have a slightly higher level of class consciousness. The left-right spectrum doesn't cover the whole of human experience.

They're called Hasan Piker fans

Then my statement is a general one and not meant for you

The people in question are mostly Hasan Piker fans

Tell that to my mother. Before 2016, she'd never voted for anyone left of the aisle. Now, she's attended several protests and is planning to attend more. Do you think Trump is a king? That's all there is to it. Go to the damn protest.
comment in response to post
I'd love to attend at least one of your protests, but they're all right between 2 12 hour shifts for me. Can you please have one on an odd week instead of purely on even weeks. Some of us work for a living.

If they get that kind of power, they're going to use it against everyone. They would no longer have to "justify" their actions to their base with racism. They'll arrest everyone who disagree with them, after all, they could.

California and New York Dems are almost just as bad as Republicans.

California really is the redest blue state

The media paints it as a move solely against migrants, but if habeas corpus is suspended, even if just for migrants, they won't actually let you prove you're not a migrant.

Unfortunately, "American" is the only common demonym for someone from the US.

I wouldn't say "hates" he's just a more average Catholic about us. Francis wasn't a fan of divorce, but he didn't hate divorcees.

I, too, was hoping for the Filipino.

If Pakistan was a US puppet, China wouldn't be so supportive.
comment in response to post
He tried to ban all Muslims from the US in 2017. They still voted for him in 2024. Religious extremists are all the same.

Don't buy for a food pantry. Donate directly. The pantry knows what they need, you don't.

7% of the way through, we can do this.

I've always believed that no job should be out of reach due to innate traits, but this is from a country that's trying to ban certain people from using the restroom in peace.
comment in response to post
But they don't have to be that way

Other than Palestine, which rightfully belongs to Palestinians, and American Indigenous territories. Free from whom?
comment in response to post
The only reason I lean toward the Pakistani side is because I hate Modi. Unlike Palestine, the situation in Kashmir isn't black and white.
comment in response to post
I'd argue everybody is occupying Kashmir.

Long story short, yes, a 9yo can know. No, I don't believe an outsider can tell, everybody below a certain age is indistinguishable from an aroace from the outside.
comment in response to post
I didn't know anyone was different from myself until people started "dating" in middle school. Even now, I'm not convinced those "dates" were based on actual attraction. I didn't know anyone was different for certain until high school when I eventually asked why people were pretending.
comment in response to post
Due to lack of awareness, most aces didn't fully understand themselves until later in life. For me, I was 21 before I found the term. While it's certainly possible for a 9 yo to realize they're ace, at that age, I personally was still under the impression that nobody was interested in relationships.

I've seen three takes on the device. 1. Leftist = 0% capitalism Liberal = 1% or more 2. Liberal = 100% capitalism Leftist = 99% or less 3. Liberal = 100% capitalism Leftist = 0% capitalism
comment in response to post
1. Tell that to Uighurs and Tibetans 2. China is more capitalist than a lot of people realize. There are desperately poor and disgustingly rich people. There is a massive amount of money in politics over there.

I've seen three takes on the devide. 1. Leftist = 0% capitalism Liberal = 1% or more 2. Liberal = 100% capitalism Leftist = 99% or less 3. Liberal = 100% capitalism Leftist = 0% capitalism Hank is obviously capitalism skeptical like myself. Where do we go?

Then there are incredibly few leftists worldwide. China is capitalist to a point. Russia is arguably more capitalist than the US. The only countries I'd argue don't have any sort of capitalism any more have capitalismed so hard that there's no economic distribution to capitalism over.
comment in response to post
I've seen people say that anyone who votes against Trump is a liberal because they and all "true lefists" would be voting for him.

Being one of the first astrotourists is an accomplishment of a sort. Not one anyone should be proud of, but still an accomplishment.

And an airline passenger is a pilot, I assume? There's a difference between someone who works and someone who just has money.
comment in response to post
Calling a space tourist an astronaut is like calling an airline passenger a pilot.

At this point, I've become a separatist, they can have this trash fire of a country if they let our states join Canada. Only office left to respect is PM.

Leave the mortgages. People who have them are privileged enough.

Is now a good time to remind people that the Northumbrians often celebrated Easter by assassinating their kings? History is interesting.

If you want to get material created by a bigot, there's a way to do that without being a bigot yourself. Steal, pirate, or at least buy second hand, but make sure not a single penny reaches them.
