Oh yeah, I think that’s part of the fascism standard set. Like first it’ll be non-christians, and then catholics, and then the “wrong” kind of protestants.
There’s some political cartoon that was like
Gay man pushing a trans person off a cliff. nazi smiling.
Gay man: “Glad we worked together to get rid of the trans menace! What next?”
nazi: [keeps smiling]
Gay man: [concerned expression]
nazi: [pushes gay man off the cliff, too.]
Side note: I hate how markdown doesn’t do linebreaks unless you add two trailing spaces on the end of the line, or add a whole ass extra line break.
Conservatives tend to live in an eternal now- what’s good for me now? This explains why they don’t care about hypocrisy.
People act based on emotions, specifically feeling like they’re part of the in-group. You know the old saying “Would you jump off a bridge if your friends all were jumping, too?” Well, the answer is clearly yes. Most people are stupid like that.
I mean, we all are sometimes. It’s impossible to know and verify everything so we trust our friends. But for some people it’s reached a toxic level of “vaccines are bad” and “banning books is good”
With violence, though a lot of spaces will tell you it’s gauche to talk about violence. Stern words only.
Also, as a USian, even though my grandparents fought the Nazis the US was still garbage at home.
This is correct. They don’t care. It’s just in-groups to protect and out-groups to bind. It’s “what’s good for me right now?”. There’s nothing deeper.
By any reasonable metric they are bad people
Spotify kind of sucks. I’ve been buying music from the musicians (mostly via Bandcamp) for years. Buying one album a month for like $8 means is cheaper than a subscription, and I now have a huge library of music.
Maybe. These aren’t normal times and I feel like being neutral in the face of a rising tyranny when you have a big platform is collaboration.
You proud now MAGAts? Does this make you proud?
They don’t care. All they care about is their in-group is strong and the out-group is punished. They’re shitty people.
Trump is just the highly visible part of a whole cancerous growth. All of the right wing, with its “outgroups to bind and in-groups to protect” worldview, needs to go.
I put off playing ME3 for like years because EA sucks etc. I finally got around to it and… It’s pretty bad. Just a real disappointment. The story set it up like it’d be a 4x game (like civ) but there just wasn’t any substance to the reaper war.
Also the ending was stupid.
I feel like if a car is parked in a bus lane or bike lane, people should be allowed to do what they want to it. Sure , go ahead and park there, I’ve got my baseball bat ready.
They don’t really take much of an anti-fascist stance. They’re more “neutral”, which enables the oppressor.
They don’t explicitly support trump et al, but they don’t really use their platform for good. They could do a lot more to resist and organize.
I guess riots break out all around the world?
I feel like this idea that people are just going to riot and do mass violence is some right wing fear.
Most people, most of the time, are pretty social cooperative creatures.
Public funding shouldn’t go to private schools. We shouldn’t even have private schools.
Capitalism remains a root problem.
One, I don’t think RFK believes in HIV. He doesn’t believe in germ theory. (Ars is kind of a bootlicker site, but their news is pretty good)
Two, everyone who works at ICE should be shot dead. If we have a future, people are going to look back at us with scorn. “You knew about the horrors that lead up to ww2, and you just sat back and let it happen again?” Basically yeah, we’re all scared and disorganized, and about a third of our country are rabid fascists who want this to happen.
Counter-hot-take: Rip the charisma stat and its skills out of the game. It’s half-baked as it is. The cha classes can be moved to int or wis.
I had an issue with installing mint. Never figured it out. Got the older LTS and it worked fine though. Maybe try a different version?
Javascript is like Dungeons and dragons. It’s a mess, weighed down by legacy decisions, too heavy in some places and too light in others, and used in far more places than it should be. It also has some diehard fans, and some diehard fans who have never used anything else.
