People are looking at this all wrong. You can't guilt them. There is no shame when they kill.
You need to understand how to be heartless. You can't make pleas to heartless men. You can't reason like that. The heartlessness builds people like that... It's a badge of honor.
People need to stop looking for solutions via political discourse and start understanding how mafias and cartels work.
The goal is not to shame the administration, it's to point out to the "This is just normal politics" fence-sitters that no, it's fucking not.
That was kind of the point of my comment. Like it's mafia organized crime style now...
Good intentions don't change heartless people.
It seems only someone or something that can exceed their heartlessness could defeat them. And it's like a mind bending hopeful paradox of the possibility that something heartless could be for good... Like the atomic bomb.
If you have ever dealt with real criminals... There is no such thing as "no". The issues are alive until death, and even after death vengeance still carries on.
Again, this is not aimed at the administration
It's aimed at voters who might otherwise sit out.
lol
This guy thinks he's getting a vote
I mean, I'm not entirely disagreeing with your cynicism here, but my point is that the intention of this message is towards voters.
And, for that matter, the same electorate that votes is the same that, potentially, revolts. Though I wouldn't put my hopes high there either.
Paradox of Tolerance
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
The paradox of tolerance is a philosophical concept suggesting that if a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance, thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance.
If we all just idly sit by and let assholes be assholes, all we're ever going to end up with is to be surrounded by assholes. Not only should we stand up and say something or show our displeasure or disagreement with these idiots .... common people should stop voting these morons into positions of power.
These idiots don't get into power because they have any kind of charisma or power over people ... they get into power because most people idly stand by and just watch them as they take control of power knowing that no one or not enough people will stop them.
Russia is for all intents and purposes a Bratva state. Leaders govern like Bratva leaders, eliminate problems like Bratva, and collude like Bratva.
The United States is working as had as it can to emulate Russia. другими словами нам пиздец
MAGA brain: Boston University = blue state = fake study! I can safely ignore this because it wasn't done by the Texas Steakhouse Gun and God Church of Donald Trump the Magnificent. But even if it was, it would be fake news if it didn't say want I wanted it to say.
I just think the empire is in a different position right now to be sparing resources for unimportant things plus Americans are largely (by now) selfish and sociopathic and simply don't care about anyone besides themselves (not even the white kids that die in school shootings changed that!) so what's the point in pretending? It ain't the early 00s anymore, there's a proxy war with Russia that ain't necessarily going super well and another proxy war with China brewing, we can't be thinking about our fake morality at a time like this!
There are opinions and then there are whether this crap is.
Things are shitty, the only solution is to be shittier! /s
More like "the ideology has created fundamentally broken and selfish, if not evil, people, and expecting anything to get more righteous and fraternal in a country/society that was created through genocide and grew/grows stronger through murder and pillage is just silly".
You don't think I pray for the West and wish they would turn to God and righteousness? The whole world basically has suffered the greed and rage of Western Europeans through millennia, I also would like for it to stop! 😭

For some reason, I'm disinclined to take the word of religions which sanction slavery and pedophilia (and expanded through genocide and grew stronger through murder and pillage) as the final word on righteousness.

Lord.
Lord, indeed!
Humans running from the monster they devoted their life to creating and then blaming anything other than themselves.
This is something they can try to run from but the universe is going to reign hell on them for all the time they ignore the truth.
You can't change the wave, you have to learn how to ride it, all else will bring failure.
All the time people spend trying to own the wave only leads to the growth of the monster. All that time wasted when they could learn how to ride wave and basically surf "as one" with the energy of the big-bangs universe expansion.
When you ride the wave... Those moments when you feel completely in the present, when everything is what it is supposed to be, and you feel love, actual love not pleasure... That's what happens when you learn to ride the wave. That's what it means to be with any "God" and what genuine religions and spirituality are actually about.
Oooh, what a lovely and poetic post. Thanks! 👍
