It would break the economy if people stopped buying shit they didn’t need. I really wish these numbers didn’t correlate to whether or not people had food or housing or healthcare, otherwise that sounds like a wonderful way to slow the erosion of the natural world at the hands of overconsumption

Interesting how this narrative keeps getting used to justify our colonialism. “These are backwards savages and we are agents of progress and feminism” and then, in the course of the conflict, women and girls are raped, killed, and bombed while women’s rights are stonewalled or even stripped away back home

Yeah I’m not going to back up church attendance as a solution but I think the point is they’re missing a real community to hold them accountable and even instill them with positive values in the first place, leaving online male echo chambers of despair to fill that void.

What’s the fucking point of it all if this is the outcome?

To shape a global racial hierarchy and make sure socialism doesn’t get too far

This take from adults always perplexed me. I’m surprised I made it out alive

Well the illegal workers in Florida are keeping their agriculture sector afloat with slave labor so they can’t get in the way of that /s

So driving a wedge between the US and it allies and potentially endangering the entire world are a couple rich guys willing to sacrifice our lives so they can play with greenlandic lives in enacting a libertarian dystopia over its mining resources.

One of the more disgusting things I’ve read today but unfortunately sounds classically American

I actually heard about the new passes and defacement policy a few nights ago from friends of mine in the parks and they’ve already said they don’t give a shit

Yeah, for what? They’ve now decided they want this rotten organization to reform itself after the latest killing? If you can withhold funding, withhold funding

So if younger generations have less and less capital with which to enter the housing market, then where does the value appreciation come from I wonder?

Gotta make sure we make it to working age before they trade our lives for the bottom line

Making their constituents feel represented is a huge part of their job

Kick someone out of their home because they aren’t profitable enough wtf?

You don’t think dropping bombs counts as intent to kill? I think they were careless enough regarding collateral damage to say they killed the victims.

Maybe I’m feeling cornered, vulnerable, angry, as is often the case with these things. But how do you suggest we protect ourselves and our allies from an evil that strengthens itself off of your sickness, your hunger, your homelessness, and has absolutely no qualms about meeting you with violence and coming up with an excuse later?

But we’re not talking specifically about protecting children here, I’d agree with you that less guns are better to those ends. For fighting fascism though? It took a lot of gun deaths to unseat Hitler and Mussolini
