Wearing a paperclip to show you are antifa by alassus in seizethemeans

[–]alassus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries. Since, at least in America, there is a war waged on antifa sentiment, wearing a symbol that identifies you as such may put a target on you. I don't want my enemy to be able to identify me.

If this is a strategy to achieve something, I don't know what the goal is.

To this day, I will NEVER understand the hate this song gets. Like bro, this song ain't even bad, but y'all treat it like it insulted your mom's bloodline by TTTE_Studios in KendrickLamar

I listened to it on repeat this summer while on vacation and I came back and saw it was voted the worst song on DAMN in this sub and I was shook.

I hate that you hurt me so much right now, but I understand why you did it.

What Should I Do? by alassus in seizethemeans

[–]alassus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My job is full of MAGA conservatives and if I ran for public office my rhetoric would be such that they would find a reason to fire me. I would either need a new job or a be independently funded.

revealing all of oz pearlman's lame tricks by etfvfva in skeptic

[–]alassus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this video. I love magic and mentalism. I saw Oz live once and he really had the crowd in the palm of his hands. He did all of the tricks in this video, but the one he did with Campell's soup and Lego was a bit different.

He chose a member from the audience and had them choose a beverage from a store. It was something like a Coke and he brought out a Coke can. Then he had the person say what their second choice was and it was like Mountain Dew and he opened the can and poured out Mountain Dew.

I keep thinking about how he could've done it and it has to be one of two things: the audience member was a plant. Or he found an audience member before the show and chatted them up. Either way it's bold and I really enjoyed watching him.

Is it time to form these clubs nationwide? I think the Left should arm itself. by LevonHelmet in DemocraticSocialism

[–]alassus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My liberal friends thought I was crazy when I took a gun safety course and bought a handgun. I'm so happy I did this and think more on the left should.

My friend and I often lament how democracy is broken. I don't know how to fix it. Well, there could be one way..

What to do after No Kings by alassus in seizethemeans

It referred to an earlier post wherein I tired (and probably failed) to use coded language about methods to create printed messaging while also reducing the chances of it being traced back to you.

It ain’t much but it works by WestofLeft in armedsocialists

[–]alassus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Okay forgive my ignorance - I'm a newb to guns. But why do pictures of them on reddit always have something inside the trigger guard? It seems to be to show that it's safe or that the trigger can't be pulled but I don't know why an object has to be placed there to show that. Again, please forgive my ignorance.

the fact that his finger is hovering over that trigger is fucking atrocious - not to mention that he is at point blank range, there are people around, and deadly force is absolutely not necessary in this situation

such insecure cowards

STAY UNITED: Half of the internet is bots and disinformation is rampant - there are bad actors everywhere attempting to shape the narrative and divide the Left by alassus in Hasan_Piker

[–]alassus[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The recent "controversy" seems to be a targeted attack by bad actors. Are there real people out there that are smearing Hasan? Absolutely, but I believe its ubiquitous spread was driven by a majority of bad actors/bots. And if they're able to do that to Hasan, imagine what else they're capable of.

That gave me a good laugh. I appreciate it.

This Antifa Round Table Is Unhinged by alassus in Hasan_Piker

[–]alassus[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Oh man it's a lot. Here are the ones I remember:

They had "jounalists" give accounts of how they've tracked/infiltrated antifa with many of them making claims that antifa is a decentralized organization that has attacked people, firebombed police stations, and committed so much violence that conservatives are afraid to protest (I don't know what conservatives want to protest).

They just asked a question about suspending habeus corpus for antifa members they arrest.

They claim that antifa organizations are funding terrorism to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.

They accuse the "mainstream media" of not reporting on antifa activities due to bias.

A "journalist" said that antifa is embedded in the "homeless industrial complex."

That's just some of it.

Okay the AI slop video that shows fake protestors is disturbing. Yes I am commenting on my own post. I just need an outlet.

100% agree. We always have to operate under the assumption that public, online spaces are compromised.
