Communism is when Bugsnax

At least there is one thing we can all agree on...

The best meal is rubber buns and liquor.

What has this thread become

What has this thread become

Every thread I touch burns

Every thread I touch burns

Honestly, we aren't losing much with you burning this thread

 

[tthousand]

What has this thread become

A reflection of humankind. A look inside the hearts of men. An insight to madness. And also a glimpse of beautiful, unfied future?

Or maybe it has become a gang bang of red and blue, where everyone is getting blasted.

Either way, sometimes we need to find some common ground... and who doesn't love rubber buns and liquor time?

Aren't we though? Aren't we?

And no one was surprised that Biden upholds the neoliberal imperial agenda that our country has run on for 30+ years


Tell that to our government that has stolen from indigenous people/societies for centuries.

Are they looting the government or someone else?

Shouldn't they target the government and not random innocent businesses.

What good are you to the government if you do not have to rely on them?

I'm nothing to the government? I don't know

I dont think they would miss me if I was gone.

But it's a shame when we think the enemy is one another. We will never defeat the true enemy while we are divided.

I clutch pearls over property damage (particularly private property) regardless of the circumstances and I let due process play out. I am all for holding police accountable, however if there is something detrimental to the average American, I'd say groups of violent criminals setting their cities on fire and looting their workplaces, potentially putting business owners out of business and their workforce out of a job, are pretty high on the list. I will not be surprised if food deserts will become more prevalent and unemployment will increase in areas affected by these riots - I wouldn't open or operate a business in an area where it is liable to be destroyed next time a police officer screws up, and if I were an insurer, I wouldn't insure it either.

i don't know who needs to read this, but human lives are worth more than property

I see that the support for *robbing somebody else* and *setting their property on fire* is going strong in this thread - who would've thunk? I'm sure that won't engender any ill will towards the cause. At this point I wonder why people in Minnesota pay any taxes at all - the state has repeatedly failed at its job. The state government has a duty of care, and it's shown to not care enough about its duty.

Could you say "black lives matter" for me real quick?

I'm on the side of "No Lives Matter".

"Someone was killed by the police, therefore it is justifiable for me to rob the nearest Dollar Tree and set it on fire" - this thread in a nut shell.

"No property matters."

"No property matters."

It seems to matter to Americans at large since according to USA Today and IPSOS trust in the police increased while trust in the BLM movement declined since last summer. People are getting real tired of the rioting.

Why do you care? If no lives matter, then the lives of the property owners don't matter. The lives of the people who are tired of the rioting don't matter.

Lol at focusing on the people tired of the rioting without focusing on the people tired of the police violence against people of color and protestors.

If you can't say black lives matter, I'm not particularly interested in continuing to participate in this conversation.

So don't know how many days this is now. Is the world all sunshine and rainbows because the right guy got in? Or alternatively if the wrong guy got in is the world a shit show now? Is it actually more or less business as normal and has been for the last however long regardless of the colour of tie the theoretical big bossman is wearing?

If everybody is special nobody is special.

I am now curious if those words are supposed to be the equivalent of "if I walked into a church I would catch fire" jokes you would get in formerly religious places.

Can you say "black lives matter" for me please?

 

[FAST6191]

Can you say "black lives matter" for me please?

What purpose would it serve?

I can say all manner of lies when it suits me normally -- why yes I am really IT support, no officer I did not see a thing, yes I can see us getting into a long term relationship, nah it is worthless junk miss little old widow, yes I believe in the company and don't just care about being paid...

What meaning would a line of text on a forum have? Either I mean it, or have said your magic spell that somehow makes me a person not immediately worth dismissing in your eyes and somehow not set on fire (which because magic is not real...).

This is also before I split it between what is generally an entirely agreeable abstract and a codified and named organisation that share a term.

Because when a person can't say "black lives matter," it usually means they don't think black lives matter. It's not rocket science.

and all lives matter, which presumably includes the subset of coloured folks, somehow does not count?

But again we are back to you fundamentally assuming people are honest in the text online and will demean themselves enough to be a parrot for you.
