SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•L isn't a genius. Light is just CATASTROPHICALLY stupid51·2 days agoAction; became cop. Is bad. Yup, all lights green here.
You don’t see cops as the enforcement of capital with a side gig of solving crime. He does. Just because the show doesn’t bother to dive into that aspect doesn’t mean it’s an invalid point especially if we are just talking about “goodness”.
Here’s a better way to put it. Light would view the FBI agents as good guys due to his general views of law enforcement in general so targeting them is light showing that what he thinks is good in the world is irrelevant to his choices.
Instead now we are arguing ideology because you don’t understand perspective in literature. Womp womp and acab

Words aren’t graphic in any way ever. It’s in the word. Graphic. There’s no graphics in books, it don’t have a graphics card!

SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Autism@lemmy.world•I have absolutely no sympathy for anyone who lost friends and family, just because they voted for the current president.1·2 days agoI want you to Google “racist town Texas” and find my home towns wikipedia page. I didn’t grow up in a liberal bubble, I very much understand their view points. They were mine for the majority of my life.
I am also a cis white man. I am not the one directly effected or endangered by those people. But that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t treat their fight as my own because theirs is a righteous one.
No man is an island, Entire of itself. Each is a piece of the continent, A part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less. As well as if a promontory were. As well as if a manor of thine own Or of thine friend’s were. Each man’s death diminishes me, For I am involved in mankind. Therefore, send not to know For whom the bell tolls, It tolls for thee.
In short. Maybe it is not me who is too sensitive, but you who is too insensitive. Perhaps you should spend less time thinking about how you should give passes to offenses in your life and more about the people you fail when you let their detractors say what they want unchallenged. Grow a spine. Stand for something.
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Autism@lemmy.world•I have absolutely no sympathy for anyone who lost friends and family, just because they voted for the current president.3·3 days agoYou see, that’s my point exactly. You wouldn’t call someone a friend who wanted you dead. You might even not talk to that person. I know, what a shocker.
So when a person comes in, family, friend or acquaintance and starts talking about how he doesn’t think trans people should exist, I ain’t talking to him anymore. When some mothefucker comes in saying gay marriage shouldn’t be legal, I ain’t talking with that motherfucker no more.
Because you can’t really talk to someone starting from the position of “you should not exist and your existence right now I find morally apprehensible”. They are telling you they want you dead, gone, or in the closet. Whatever you choose.

How many friends of yours are racists against your race? How many friends you got that actively call for some part of your life that you have no control over to be made illegal? Cmon, how many you got? Mr “disagreement is good” should have a plethora of friends and family wishing you dead.
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Autism@lemmy.world•I have absolutely no sympathy for anyone who lost friends and family, just because they voted for the current president.111·4 days agoMan, we can disagree on politics all day long. But I ain’t spending my free time associating with a motherfucker who wants me and people I love dead, gone, out of sight.
I imagine none of your friends or associates actively call for your elimination from existence. How many Nazi friends you keep around?

You don’t get to drop your vote and move on. If you regret it you apologize as if you yourself had done it.
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•Capitalism is killing us11·26 days agoI don’t insist on continuing. I’m sticking to my word and leaving it there.
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•Capitalism is killing us22·27 days agoBefore I too let the conversation die I just want to point out how much you devalue “political scare tactics” like they have no effect and can be basically ignored by its targets with no repercussions. I want you to think on that for a while. Figure out yourself why that is a self evidently silly thing to say when discussing how they redefined communist to mean traitor and how that means they actually didn’t ban communism.
I bet your a real big fan of the children’s game “I’m not touching you”
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•Capitalism is killing us22·27 days agoIt’s like burning down a house and asking what’s the problem after the fire has gone out. Repercussions last a long time. The cultural changes produced go on for generations.
Anyways, none of that matters cause this is America. We just did the unconstitutional thing at the State level instead.

Please read and hit me with some more complaints. Maybe if I keep knocking them down you will eventually change your mind :)
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•Capitalism is killing us32·27 days agoWould it be? True it’s not communist but also China doesn’t claim to be. They claim it as an aspiration not as a current state of affairs. However we are random internet people. Are we really going to explain to every dumbass how China isn’t communist, only a vanguard state hoping to evolve into one in the future according to the chain of events described in the communist manifesto?
No. Cause that’s a waste of time. Being angry that all that context wasn’t added is pedantic because we ain’t operating with strict definitions that everyone agrees to. We are working with cultural vibe checks. And as far as culture is concerned, China is communist.
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Australia asks China to explain 'extraordinary' military build-upEnglish103·27 days agoAmerica overthrew the Australian government last time they did that. The balls remain firmly in place.
For all you folk who aren’t big history nerds and didn’t know that the US overthrew the government of AUSTRALIA, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1975_Australian_constitutional_crisis
It’s really interesting
SmilingSolaris@lemmy.worldto Late Stage Capitalism@lemmy.world•Capitalism is killing us63·27 days agoYou can have disagreements within a single party. Like how in the US they banned communist parties because it didn’t align with the capitalist ideals that all American parties are required to align with.
That’s saying a grilled cheese wouldn’t be so bad if it didn’t have cheese. At that point it ain’t a grilled cheese anymore so why even try to defend it in the first place? Just eat some god damn bread
