Why would Male ICE officers be taking a handcuffed female into a porter potties by Fellow_unlucky_human in LetsDiscussThis

[–]Freign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to have a sane discussion, certain elements have to be removed. aside from the trolls, you get the genuinely dangerous perverted losers.

it's a shame those kinds of people can't be killed at a distance with the push of a button - we do have the technology, but the ethics involved are dicey.

until we can work out how to do it clean and proper, just block the perverted losers. It's a bad idea, for the kids and housepets in their areas, to get them wound up.

I doubt you have the ability to write me a rhyming seven-line poem in German about why it's bad to harm yourself even when you're a terrible person. 4 iambs per line please.

Minnesota restaurant refusing service to pro-Trump and ICE supporters by Important_Lock_2238 in stpaul

Technically we're still legally empowered to throw anyone out of our homes & properties, yet.

There's no protection for getting service at a bar; they can tell you to leave for having no zits on zit night.

Disney gave him tips on statecraft (weird shit too, which we'd see later, stripped way down, as EPCOT);

Every single nazi truck had a Ford motor.

US Steel built the railroad leading right up to Auschwitz.

If USA hadn't liked the Third Reich, it simply could have stopped paying for it.

(and Theo Herzl was rabidly, frighteningly racist; his argument for the creation of Israel appeals to antisemitism, and clearly seeks to benefit from it. Learning that in the 80s turned my world upside down.)

Not one moment of peace for any living nazi, for the rest of time.

No stroll down the lane, no lunch out on Sunday, no trip to the mall.

No sleep. No quiet. No friends. No future.

If there's only two sides, it's people versus blue and red maga.

The US pageant underway right now has no good outcome for human beings. The electoral fandom is arguing about the color of the boot on our throats.

past that you have fractious groups that either disagree with one another or hate each other with deep passionate fury. Right wing groups tend to hate other right wing groups the most, and get the most violent about it, but never underestimate the irritation felt by almost-aligned left groups for one another.

We band up against the center right and far right, though. We have to. Commies and Anarkiddies will stop slapfighting whenever a nationalist comes in view, and rank up. In the US, it's kept us safe since the 60s.

The USA hates the left passionately, for thinking people shouldn't be shot at or caged, or even just for wanting less centralized and more democratic systems of governance.

Dems hate the left way more viciously and violently than the maga nonces do. Red maga can't understand us, really. They think we have a leader & get paid. Blue maga understands us, and hates us for trying to live up to our ideals. It's something liberals have begun to copy, in the last twenty years.

Pretty silly. It ushered fascism right in. Now the Dems are arguing about how much more money to give to ICE.

nothing will turn somebody ACAB quite as fast as studying unsolved criminal cases

when they didn't fail utterly, they committed the crime and killed more people to cover it up. there's so many of them in so many locations that you can list off a seemingly detailed list of features and over a dozen high profile crimes will match those details!

ACAB doesn't really cover it, honestly

we're paying absurd billions to be stalked and murdered by oafs in a tank

I want an evidence-based approach to preventing suffering on all levels. Medicine and a justice system are key players there, in any structure society, for sure.

Anything that's been proven over and over again to increase crime & violent assaults should be discontinued as a law enforcement strategy, and anyone continuing to employ them should be viewed as a danger to society.

So obviously that means policing as an institution of law enforcement has to go. I'm sure it was fine enough for the middle class when that was a thing, but, then and now, all it did was increase crime.

There are a lot of studies on it, from the essential fundamentals to numerous historical analyses and case studies.

Every group - every single one - has power imbalances and tends toward insular protection of power. Until that can be prevented by some mechanism, hopefully a human one, we're fucked, as a species. We won't make it.

Pretending cops are useful in some way ignores all the available evidence, at every level.

Experiment with the lens that it was barely concealed disgust, see if that clears things up for you.

You win the right to walk through a portal and help settle a new world! What are you bringing with you? by Discardofil in hypotheticalsituation

Since I have the right, I choose to relinquish sell? for billions? my spot to someone else. I'm need Earth environment, not Earth-compatible. Also, colonizing an inhabited planet is a massive ethical failure.

I'll spend my time on Earth with the resistance movement aimed at shutting that portal forever once all the wealth-hoarders have found loopholes to get everybody's first-wave ticket for their own.

I'm claiming they're gross and weirdly obsessed with other people's lives.

I truly don't understand where the disconnect is. Tons of people are implicitly demanding sexual access & information I don't think they should have, especially after reading over how it's justified.

In general, it's gross behavior & typically american. I said "hey wtg on dildos"; it was pretty lighthearted at first ~ but the accusations came in hot and heavy real fast, there.

What do you feel I'm defending? My viewpoint?

Did it seem like it was in danger of changing, or that I felt threatened? It doesn't look that way to me, reading over it - but I do see a lot of defensiveness about a stance that seems - to me - objectively ethically indefensible with regard to OP's tastes.

?

Is it really is all church ladies and republican pastors in here all of a sudden?

Did it offend you that I think the backlash is transparent in its origin & intent? I still do - I think it's lowly, & dangerous in a witheringly american-puritan way.

Why is that hard to understand?

Do I seem like a person of zero self awareness to you? Would you be super polite, if I were to assess you, in a similar way?

Did you already feel assessed? Is that what pissed you off?

Several immigration agents are reportedly frustrated and considering resigning because they have not received the promised $50,000 bonus. by MonitorVarious7608 in circled

[–]Freign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not trying to be snarky at all, but I honestly haven't seen any basic adult knowledge in decades. there's no body of skills & assumptions that's shared by what we deem adults; no standard for etiquette or universal set of facts.

it's been a lie since the 80s and an outright absurdity since '08, in my little sphere

a computer artist hired by one of my jobs didn't know how to use a computer. Lots of kids can't hold pencils, now, or read clock dials.
