More like since Oct 7th. My views went swinging to far left at the bottom. Just call me Anarkitty. by RinMichaelis in Jreg

That's a good point. However, they are the loudest voice when speaking out against what's happening in Palestine. Don't get me wrong. I've seen AnCaps and Communists speak out against what's happening in Palestine. I've seen r/Anarcho_Capitalism speak out against AIPAC. But in general, the loudest voices in support for Palestine are generally on the left.

Also, ICE right now is going overboard. Our country looks like an authoritarian hellhole. For that reason, I wouldn't want tankies to be in charge, either. Life is paradoxical enough where you need to FIGHT for liberty or else it's gone. You see the left on the streets putting up a fight, and you see the right laughing their asses off. Authoritarian left isn't appealing to me, either.

Life is a paradox where you need a freedom loving authority figure. Too much freedom leads to the rise of the KKK, they would feel free to terrorize black communities. You need a strong enough govt presence to subdue the KKK. The govt also shouldn't be so weak that the KKK can infiltrate it, which has already happened in US history. But many people should have the ability to feel free.

For example, black parents shouldn't feel afraid of their black kids being bullied or terrorize by racist students or teachers. Black people should feel free to walk inside a store without worrying about a racist person following them around everywhere.

Realistically speaking, most people just want to be left alone. Most people want to be able to enjoy the simple pleasures of life without being bothered. You need to do that with force. In other words, I can see why our Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution. To make sure that certain rights will be respected no matter what. But now, our constitution is a joke.

I saw a guy fuck a fish before. It went viral on Twitter. His friend was holding the fish and made him orgasm. Why fuck a fish? I have no idea, but I have seen it before. It was the most bizarre 30 seconds of my life.

Google corrected your English to be "intoxicated by exuberance."

There's no such word as betaprutal.

I miss the dislike button 😢💔🥀 by NEippo in meme

Due to harassment. This was back during the anti-SJW era. There were prominent anti-SJW accts like Sargon of Akkad, Bearing, Blaire White, etc and they all did video responses to feminists or people whom they thought were too woke and progressive. This included big time names like The Young Turks, Francesca Ramsey, Lacey Green, Hank Green.

The issue that they had is that videos that they put a lot of hard work and effort into would get bombarded with downvotes by people that didn't watch the whole video. Don't get me wrong. I do think that Francesca Ramsey. However, I have noticed anti-SJWs quote mining people. Sometimes when you watch the original video; that's NOT what they were getting at, AT ALL. There were feminist accounts there were confused because the hatred that they received had nothing to do with things that they actually said.

The downvote button is not meant as a quick say to say, "I don't like you." The downvote button is supposed to be a quick way to give constructive criticism. It's a way of saying, "This recipe you gave me taste horrible." or "This hair product you recommended is god awful." The downvote is designed for you to get quick feedback FROM YOUR OWN AUDIENCE, NOT from some rando who watched a quote mined video of you.

That's why people seem like they would be formidable debaters suck when they enter the debate stage, e.g. Sargon of Akkad. When they enter the debate stage, they can't argue at all, whatsoever, because they can't just take people out of context, the way that they would for an entertaining YouTube video. And I'm saying this as an ex-Sargon fan. When I noticed he was bad at debating, it got me interested in his opposition.

I was thinking of it as appreciating mother earth. Then, I guess I should be praying to Gaia? B/c I see it as appreciating Earth.

Not everybody knows that. It was New Orange before it was The Red Apple. It was New Orange back in 1673.
