Oh wow, you are right, your title does say those things, and I have now seen the light and throw away my means of defending myself in the face of fascism, since we only “sometimes” need weapons to protect ourselves from blatant fascism according to your holy words.
There, I acknowledged your title, now return to your centrism and fence sitting. The adults are working on dealing with actual issues.
The problem is that you Think there is an opposition, when there is not. The Democrats are not the opposition, they are the collaborators, they merely act as if they are against what is happening while actively ensuring Trump can do whatever he wants. They must also be removed, just like we removed the collaborators in France and other countries after we removed the Nazis. There is a reason why the Dems keep telling us to not fight back, to remain peaceful and to not interfere, to keep playing by their rules. They are paid to be the losing side, the “voice of reason” that does nothing to help the people. The only ones who can stop Trump and the fascists in the government are the people.
“Pacifism is objectively pro-fascist. This is elementary common sense. If you hamper the war effort of one side, you automatically help out that of the other. Nor is there any real way of remaining outside such a war as the present one. In practice, ‘he that is not with me is against me’.” ― George Orwell
The problem here is that you are positioning this as if what we are dealing with today is the same as what those people dealt with in their day, and it is not. We aren’t dealing with rational politicians who believe that they must do something to appease the common people to avoid losing their jobs, we’re dealing with fascists who are willing to crush any and all descent, regardless of how it makes them look, because they are already working on changing the law to ensure they cannot be removed from power.
Speaking of reading, read a little something from one of my favorite authors: “Pacifism is objectively pro-fascist. This is elementary common sense. If you hamper the war effort of one side, you automatically help out that of the other. Nor is there any real way of remaining outside such a war as the present one. In practice, ‘he that is not with me is against me’.” ― George Orwell
There are some amongst us who already have plans for how to run things once the revolution is over.
I’m not merely waiting, I am preparing, arming myself, for the day when the revolution begins.
I’m just waiting for the moment that shots are fired by one side or the other, because once that line is crossed we can finally get real change.
Yes, tell me about the peaceful protests that stopped the Nazis.
Hmm, yes, now tell me how persuasion stopped the Nazis.
Depends on how the DM is feeling and what kind of campaign they are up for running this week.
Sword Art Online Abridged by Something Witty Entertainment, season 1 was fantastic, but season 2 has been pretty flaccid. Goblin Slayer Abridged by Grimjack is fantastic and takes the series in a very different direction. So far it just keeps getting better as it goes on, further refining the jokes. Grimjack also did a My Hero Academia abridged, think it was called My Dumb Academia or something. I think they only did season 1, but it was fantastic. They are currently also working on a Demon Slayer Abridged but it wasn’t for me. Team Four Star is also still doing DBZ content, just not Abridged content exactly. It’s a show called Cell in Hell, focusing on Cell… in HIFL, living with other villains like Raditz and Frieza. Also by TFS is Hellsing Ultimate Abridged, but it was a bit too edgy for my taste.
These ones aren’t really for me, but people do really like Code Ment (Code Geass Abridged) and 50% Off (Free! Abridged).
Technically, the English Dub of Ghost Stories could be considered an Abridged series because the dubbing staff was never given the script and had to just make up what they thought was going on, or so I’ve heard.
Learn Russian history, learn about the culture, then learn about the horrific things they have done in not only the Ukraine war, but Every war they’ve ever been involved in. Then, come back to me.
You’re not wrong, but the US doesn’t need to be wiped off the map. It needs to be Corrected, by force. Re-education camps will be necessary to fix the issues of the culture.
Yes but also no. The difference is, the UK is no longer that which it once was. Russian, still is the monster it always was.
Disagree. Russian culture is based heavily upon many things that are counterproductive and harmful to others. For example, corruption is not merely an aspect of the government, but the culture of Russia. Corruption is evident in every aspect of their society, it is practically expected that your boss steals from the company, and that you steal from your boss, it is why there are stories from before the Ukraine war of people walking into military supply depots and buying military weapons off of the soldiers there. Alongside that is a culture that promotes abuse, that celebrates poverty and stealing from others to get by, it is partly why the domestic abuse rate is so high and why Russian soldiers stole Toilets during the opening of the war. Then you also have the part of Russian culture which insists upon dominating all other cultures around them, as they have done for a thousand years, suppressing the natives and trying to eradicate their cultures, and insisting that Anything that is opposed to this is evil, or “Nazi” as they now use these days. That’s not even getting into issues like the mass raping of children that we saw in the opening of the war, and the fact the soldiers would film it to share with friends and family, who would collectively Laugh at the horrific crimes being done. When citizens are asked about these crimes, their response is always the same; “It didn’t happen, but also they deserved it.”
This is not simply an issue of a horrible government, it is an issue of a culture that promotes Evil and claims it to be good purely because it is Russians doing it. Even their religion is just another arm of this, promoting their evil ways. Also, even if it was simply due to a “shit government” it seems odd that Every Russian government in their history has been mired in horrific things, every single ruler, every regime, there is not one point in time where you can say that the government wasn’t shit.
In the words of George Orwell: “A people who elect criminals are not victims, but accomplices.”
We need to balkanize Russia, and turn Moscow into an irradiated wasteland for good measure. Russian “culture” must be eradicated, as it is explicitly harmful to all others.
There is no “let me know when it’s done.” We must all arm ourselves and take a stand. Everyone is waiting for another Luigi to come and save the day, but we must all be Luigi to do what must be done. Arm yourself, organize with those in your community, and fight back.
To anyone feeling self-conscious about their dick: My wife’s best friend was with a guy for years who had a 3 inch dick, and he was overweight. From what I was told, she enjoyed sex with him quite a bit, it was the rest of the relationship that was awful.
Assassinating Trump doesn’t solve this, it merely shifts the figurehead to the next dictator. We don’t just need to get rid of Trump, we need to get rid of Everyone in power. Republicans, Democrats, members of the cabinet, members of the senate, members of the house, the SCOTUS, all of them. They are all collaborators in the effort to bring about their fascist dystopia, and all must be purged to prevent it.
This is the point where it becomes clear that the law only matters if you are an enemy of the president. There is no legal path to ending the madness, the only way this ends is with incredible violence.
A revolution of the people will need many minds, with many ideals and inspirations. No one person has all the knowledge to fix everything, we must be a collective and work together for the destruction of the oppressors.
