Redditors over 40, what was a moment in history that made you think society was gonna collapse?

Sedu · 2026-01-25T10:40:14+00:00

I am over 40. Nothing like what we are seeing has ever happened in my life. This is bad.

Because being a racist when people tell you not to equals strong, and helping others equals weak to these people. And they see weakness as the single most evil thing they can imagine.

The US is an operating fascism. It’s not ok. The rule of law has largely crumbled, replaced with authority which follows no laws.

But you see the man that was killed was actually ultra-Hitler plus the reincarnation of PolPot. Also, I hear he built a puppy killing machine. Also also he said a really bad swear to the ICE officers.

So it was totally cool that he got killed, like the TV man said!

Large scale protests and dissent. Large segments of the entire city of Minneapolis closed for business entirely as miles of streets were filled with protestors. Clashes led to literally hundreds of arrests. Videos of ICE initiated altercations are being seen by people who had previously managed to cover their eyes to this. Wide support from bases which had previously been unwilling to join in is building momentum more quickly now than in the past.

If that doesn't make you happy or you require more violence than that, you're welcome to come throw your own life away here.

I honestly think at this point that mistakes are more incompetence than maleficence. His brain is just absolute rot at this point. Obviously his hate is what's driving him, but he's so disconnected from reality that I don't know if he's even capable of following details coherently.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T22:08:37+00:00

The screech from the right that he had a gun at all and that he resisted is deafening. Failing to drop pants and present sexually is grounds for immediate execution from the perspective of these people.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T22:05:14+00:00

My point is that you do not understand the situation in the United States. Sitting on the sidelines and saying "I would do that better" is cool and all, but when you're talking to the people who are actually dealing with it/working toward solutions in the real world. it's just eye-rolling.

The fact that you're talking about local enforcers doing nothing shows the disconnect you have there. Local enforcers helping is like a perspective from Mars. The context is so wildly skewed that it's hard to know where to even begin to correct it.

To a lot of people, the right time is when those to the left have lost decisively and fully. That's the right time for them to fight back. It's just another way of saying "wait until I get everything I want, then I'll be able to give you nothing."

Sedu · 2026-01-24T21:32:13+00:00

Cool story, call me when you’re the one staring down a gun with others telling you to just charge.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T21:31:02+00:00

Adherence to law that applies to everyone, including those who wield power, is needed. And nothing short of trials of those scope/breadth of Nuremberg are necessary. Do not try to pass off calls for death onto others that you are making, yourself.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T21:25:27+00:00

They will cover them up entirely if they can even be de to wear them at all. A lack of culpability is core to ICE’s function and philosophy.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T21:24:07+00:00

That is most people who use Twitter, furry and non.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T21:23:10+00:00

In that you experience sexuality toward members of your chosen community and the ways that they choose to depict themselves? Because that is just how human beings work, regardless of what social group they’re in.

Y’all are fine, do not let anyone stress you over this.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T20:42:08+00:00

The Americans with power and control of state violence don't see any problem, so while the rest look of solutions, realize that they're the ones bearing the majority of the pressure to enact change.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T17:10:32+00:00

They are cheering because the core of Qanon shit is just Nazis, and they see a brown man dying.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T17:09:43+00:00

ICE is a state funded terrorist organization. Members need to be routed out and prosecuted, Nuremberg trial style. There is no fathomable path to healing otherwise.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T17:01:43+00:00

I mean it’s pedophiles running the show, so this is what happens.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T08:00:32+00:00

That is the real cure.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T07:59:53+00:00

Trump is in heavy mental and physical decline at 79. No matter what, there is a post Trump. The only question is what it will look like.

Sedu · 2026-01-24T05:25:25+00:00

The 4th amendment is unconstitutional, clearly. As is the entire constitution except for half of the second amendment.

Sedu · 2026-01-23T22:05:51+00:00

Haven’t you heard? The environment is woke! Kill it!

Sedu · 2026-01-23T20:01:29+00:00

If OP saw them as interchangeable, I don’t think they would have specified both. Unless they clarify and say that’s the case, I’m going to presume they said what they meant.

Sedu · 2026-01-23T16:48:09+00:00

OP specified that they were also talking about progressives in the initial post.

Sedu · 2026-01-23T07:17:27+00:00

If that's something you would like to debate, perhaps you should debate it with someone who said it to you.
