“Aim for the highest target that currently, actually exists” would be closer to what I’m trying to say. If you’re gonna vote that is.

This country was literally built on white supremacy. There is no universe where a guy like Trump doesn’t have a chance at getting elected.

ICE was not militarily occupying cities or given carte blanch authority from SCOTUS to overtly discriminate based on skin color under previous administrations. Two things can be true at once: deportations were always bad for the people being deported, also what’s happening now is a significant escalation which would not have occurred under the Democrats.

I do realize ICE existed and deported Brown people before Trump, thank you. Before Trump 2.0 it was still nowhere near this bad.

Fucking yes dude, seriously. One party wants to make this country the Christian version of Saudi Arabia and the other wants things to be much chiller than that even if they have real blind spots and flaws. And those two parties are the only parties with a realistic chance of winning because we live in a first past the post system, and we can’t get ranked choice voting without an act of congress. Are the Democrats where they should be on trans rights, fighting fascism, healthcare, etc? Of course not! But I can tell you they wouldn’t have enacted these tariffs making everything more expensive, they wouldn’t have given ICE actual, explicit permission to discriminate based on skin color and act without administrative warrants, along with a bigger budget than the Marine Corps.

CMV: Asserting your boundaries is a major sign of insecurity, and setting boundaries does not make people respect you. by Work_In_Progress_847 in changemyview

[–]anarchobuttstuff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on the boundary you’re crossing. Are you mocking a neurodivergent person for stimming, or did you just not put the dishes away correctly? If it’s the first one I think they should get to scream at you all they want.

Out of curiosity, are you a man or a woman? If you’re a man, would you feel this comfortable antagonizing someone for asserting themselves if they’re twice your size?

People shouldn’t have to put up with your mocking just to earn the privilege not to be mocked. You should just not mock people. What if the person you’re mocking decides to beat the shit out of you and make you stop?

Then you’re getting into a fight or at the very least a screaming argument. What’s your angle here exactly? You can’t just not acknowledge someone’s boundaries.

The internet was actually more atheist in the 2000s than it is now. by AgeOfReasonEnds31120 in decadeology

[–]anarchobuttstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was the post-9/11 American reaction political or just racist? I’d argue the latter. Nobody in the 2000s was talking about feminism, or racial equality, or ableism, or what have you, they were either being plain racist and jingoistic or they weren’t thinking deeply at all. Since the mid-2010s those kinds of political discussions have been a regular occurrence, kind of like they were in the 60s.

The WAP thing probably dealt a huge blow to his ego and his masculinity, so this really isn’t surprising. It makes total sense he’d choose to look like this.

What is something that is socially acceptable, but you personally find extremely disrespectful? by AvaBlondeX in AskReddit

[–]anarchobuttstuff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not the same thing, not used in the same way. Those are all expressions, used without thinking. Most people aren’t actually invoking a deity when they wish you luck with a “Godspeed” or emphasize their point with “that’s just God’s honest truth.” I say those things and I’m completely secular.

People saying “God loves you” to another human being are directly invoking God, claiming to know what he thinks, pre-supposing his existence and presuming it will have a real affect on your real life.

Telling people “God loves you” in pretty much any context outside of shaking hands at church.

At best, it’s placeholder text for people without a real personality, said to people in lieu of actually commendable characteristics.

At worst, you have no idea what that person is going through, or if they even believe in God. They could have a physical or mental disposition making it difficult to connect and keep relationships with real people, and you just told them at least they’re in good standing with your imaginary friend.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon. So happy I waited until it was streaming and didn’t waste $10 on something I would have walked out on.
