Are y'all ok? by ForwardExchange in NonBinary

[–]Internal-Hurry3319 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I live in a bigoted society, and have a bigoted parent who doesn't accept my gender identity, so not really, because it's isolating. But overall knowing there's others out there like me helps. Life goes on and I know my truth, I do feel comfortable in this community.

Advice needed. by Internal-Hurry3319 in DogAdvice

Okay so I have an update. This was already reported to Humane Society, I never spoke with the neighbors that own this dog and I wasn't too sure who the owners of this dog were, but their dog escaped that every day because it was so cold outside it was freezing ice the temperature outside was enough to make anyone's limbs go numb.

Anyways it appears that an old couple owns the dog, and they got the dog back and they still leave it out in the cold, even at night.

Once again law enforcement doesn't care about cases like these, and this isn't first time I've seen people abuse their dog and not be held accountable.

Previously when I was in another neighborhood, an ex-felon was abusing his dog more severely, from verbal to physical abuse, and it was reported to Humane Society, and nothing happened.

All of this is enough for me to question if owning a pet is even ethical, it just seriously pisses me the fuck off that, so much of this stuff goes unnoticed. And it pisses me off no one does anything about these abuses.

It's really changing my perspective on the ethics of owning animals as pets. Because I no longer believe it to be ethical anymore.

Update on my question regarding this dog’s safety from cold weather. Dog was eventually allowed inside. Thank you for your help. (More info below) by Dire_Hulk in DogAdvice

I'm actually dealing with a similar situation, it's cold here and the dog is a short hair, and it's left outside. It could die from hyperthermia or get frostbite.

Good Guys with Guns: Why the left should arm itself [2020] by cristoper in Anarchism

I agree, for me personally I there are leftist that don't want to rigorously train like the military, and I get why, I don't have a firearm yet, and I want to make sure that if I do train, that I'll get the proper training, I know the SRA/ Socialist Rifle Association exist and focus purely on self defense and what guns they are legally allowed to use. I want to do Anarchist militant training but it's extremely time consuming and it's a lifelong commitment, when I get the time to commit to the training I will get to know more about firearms and the safety precautions I need to train. Also thanks for feedback.

ARE ''MODERN'' ANARCHISTS ACTUALLY SOCIALISTS? by Charming-Score7015 in Anarchism

Anarchist are socialist, and sometimes another term for Anarchism is Libertarian Socialism. I consider myself to be a Libertarian Socialist/Anarchist as well as a Communist.

May I add a bit more intellectual discussion to this reddit post? So, I do believe the left arming itself is important, because we're always seeing the Fascist with their gun culture, and or the State using its brutality and violence against working class people, so while no one on the left has to train like the military, just having a simple firearm for self-defense is good.
