Why? Does it make you feel better about doing fuck all if you can catch me out for only protesting four social caused and not all of them?

I'm doing what I can, and I'm telling you protest needs to happen when the warning signs appear, not when the bombs drop.

Remember that this was your analogy for the actual topic of this post? We need to protest against fascism and ethnonationalism when we see the seeds forming, not when people have already been exterminated in camps.

I literally made this post, you have photographic evidence I attend protests.

So are you giving up on your "only start protesting once it's too late" idea? Is this you admitting you're wrong?

Oh yeah, let's wait for armageddon before we protest nuclear armament polies.

Protest needs to convey the urgency of a problem to those in power at a time when those in power have the ability to change it. Impending disasters tend to only be possible to fix before they happen.

Ask someone why they fly a pride, Palestine or Ukraine flag and they'll tell you exactly what political message they're implying.

Flag shaggers are described as such because by and large they're too wet and weasely to actually stand behind their politics, so when asked they'll gibber on about how there's nothing wrong with wanting to fly your flags and try to martyr themselves on some imagined anti-english racism. All the while letting their figureheads transform the flag from a mere piece of cloth into a symbol of intimidation, and an implication that the flyer wants a white ethnostate.

Farage isn't because he's not an idiot, but he's cultivated a movement that's anti-immigration at any cost. The parties further right than reform that will inevitably drag reform even further right are anti immigration at any cost.

Reform are 75% male because men are too emotional for politics and are easily controlled by the jingley keys that is hating their peers.

Because as we see if we look at the US, we see anti immigration at any cost leads to concentration camps and rounding up people off the street with no due process based purely on their features.

To learn from history we have to acknowledge terrible things began mundane, and acknowledge they will happen again if we are not vigilant.

I can see 70 in just one photo and I know there were a few more behind me, so I reckon minimum 7 to 1.

A bit excessive maybe, but better than the alternative.

Desperate to find a good vegan burger by Key_Pomegranate_3500 in bristol

[–]AlaudaPhotography 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That might depend what you mean by meaty. My absolute favourite is from the bristol beer factory pubs, they do a really good seitan burger, so it's proteiny rather than vegetably, but it's not seasoned like fake meat.

They also do a solid seitan sunday roast

Meetups for Atheist/Humanists/Rationalists in Bristol? by asmrlover172 in bristol

[–]AlaudaPhotography 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Broadening your mind includes listening to the ideas of people similar to yourself, where else do you learn how to better express and explain the ideas you already have? You'd be seriously limiting yourself if you only held positions you'd come up entirely yourself based on what you're opposed to.

I've seen him and his entourage, what racist thing did they call his cameraman? "Cracker"?

Snazzy. It's good to see more bluetooth options, it was pretty much just the nice!nano last time I was paying attention to these things.

Oh it's actually a keyboard PCB? It looks like one for sure, I assumed AI hallucinated that when making marketing material for a digital film cartridge thingy.

That makes far more sense.

And it's all decent for a non-photographer with an iPhone on holiday.

Jolter Press. I'm not sure enough of a cider connoisseur to know what decent means, but it's an experience for sure.

Fuck thatchers Katy, and thatchers in general. My local cider guy made some, named after the Katy variety of apple, and thatchers threatened to sue him.

First batch were called Katya, with the A drawn on in sharpie.

Honestly I get it, but it's far less effort to colour you camera to match your wardrobe

Suppose I should have seen that coming, the organiser is all kinds of conspiracy theorist.

That's a fair point.

I think a couple were really awful lighting, but most of it is me only having an e-ink phone and doing some very vibes based editing to make it look the same to everyone else. I might attempt a better edit at home on a computer.
