    Something i have brought up before as an example is when i was in elementary school and high school, i was bullied very very badly. They would say horrific things and beat me up. This happened for almost 10 years. Everyone always told me “ignore them. Be the bigger person.”, “if you hit them, you are just as bad.”, “if you ignore them, they will stop.”, “have you asked them to stop bullying you?”.

    Teachers would constantly make excuses and ignore the bullies. Because if they said something about it, the whole class would lie and say i did something to deserve it. I never did anything because i was terrified.

    One day i got jumped again after school by one of them and i snapped. I beat the everliving fuck out of him. The last punch was straight to the throat and he struggled to breath.

    Not a single person in the class bullied me ever again. Not a single word was said to me from that day on.

    My point is that asking bullies and fascists nicely to stop, does not work. They are not playing according to the rules. We are currently “fighting” them with the assumption they have morals and will stop if we firmly tell them to. Did the protest annoy trump? 100%. Probably spend the entire night annoyed. Is he rethinking his fascist plans? Absolutely not.

    I do think the protests are beautiful to see. So much solidarity and love. Its amazing to see with our own eyes that our side is MASSIVE. and that the right does not have nearly as much people as they pretend they do.

    But i also know it won’t change but. Trump is not going to leave. He will not stop advancing his fascist plans. ICE continues their gestapo bullshit. LGBT and womens rights continue to be taken away.

    It’s a beautiful morale boost. But sadly that is all it is.

    Sorry for the rant. I do love seeing the protests and i really have so much respect for the people out on the streets. But i don’t think much, if anything, will change.

    I was so, so very close to directly calling jordanlund a shitlib after it was almost certainly him who mod deleted my comment, in my own thread, in .world, stating that, speaking from a historical standpoint, the only thing that stops fascists is bullets in their brains.

    He of course interpreted that as ‘advocating violence’, because … he is a shitlib.

    But instead, I composed myself and wrote a more eloquent explanation as to why my comment had been deleted… and, so far, at least that response hasn’t been deleted.

    Why not post to power tripping bastards?

    Because we already know the .world mod/admin team is a bunch of shit lib collaborators from how they acted when Luigi was framed for shooting some asshole who murdered tens of thousands of people by overseeing the denial of their healthcare.

    Sorry to rant but goddamnit am I on the exact same wavelength as this post right now.

    Jordan, if you read this, go fuck yourself and keep telling yourself Warren was a better choice than Bernie, you slimy rat fuck.

      Jordan probably is reading this, he loves scanning comments for people talking about him and then whining about it. Same for a few other common .world users.

      But man, Jordan literally banned one of my favorite users from a community because they caught Jodan lying about his poitions and documenting the fact the Dems actively did not care about the lives of brown people home and abroad and queer folk.

      .world is a shitlib encampment.

    Put your money where your mouth is, random writer with an actor for an avatar. Pretty easy to advocate for mass violence on a blog.

          I am not, but good that you acknowledge that this person is actual eponymous, even though you’re being a creepy little shit about it.

            Looking into the source when someone advocates for mass violence is creepy to you?

            Her Patreon has a fuckin Dynasty Warriors screenshot for an icon. Convince me this person is worth listening to because from here, she’s extremely online.

                It doesn’t. But the movie star/video game PFPs and Tumblr rant style of writing heavily give the impression that they’re a dime-a-dozen blogger with little real world experience because they’re terminally online
