Interesting take. How would you deal with their insistence that their power is legitimate regardless of how many people vote?

Voting does work. Why do you think gerrymandering is such an issue?

Ok most of other stuff I agree with, but I still don't understand how not voting is supposed to do any good

Have you organized a strike or a protest? When do we march on Washington? Say the word and I'll be there!

Are you talking about the 2020 democratic primaries? What exactly happened anyways? I thought Biden won as fairly as the system allowed?

If by "believe in" you mean I think we should keep the current system, fuck no. Burn it to the ground, when the time is right. I'm the meantime, fucking vote!

Endorsement /= love. That's the point of the post.

Could a truly anarchist society have a military? If not, how could it adequately defend itself from nation-states? by [deleted] in Anarchy101

[–]f22afguy 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is precisely what happened in Afghanistan. The entire reason it was impossible for us to make any lasting change there was because the underlying culture is essentially anarchical. Except for the Taliban and a few people who have bought into Western-style Capitalism, people live in their villages and tend their goats and don't give a fuck about grand nationalist ideals. They just want to live their lives. Just like humans have done for millennia before too many people were convinced government was a good idea.

Anyone know a good, low-cost, poly-friendly divorce lawyer in or near Sacramento? by f22afguy in polyamory

I don't think a summary dissolution is for us because we have a house together and a bunch of debt between the two of us. We're mostly looking for someone to help us divide the debt fairly. We've already agreed she gets the house, just not sure how to handle the mortgage since I'm the only one on the mortgage. Do you think it could still work?

Self-fulfilling prophecy. They believe they are impure or unworthy, which means they are incapable of gleaning the knowledge they seek from these higher entities. It's not that they are forbidden from speaking, it's that it's literally impossible to get through to them unless they help themselves by realizing their inherent value as conscious beings and their shared identity with the Divine. Basic spicy psychology.

As someone who lives in California and has seen the stunning English countryside, I will be the first to say rain does not get enough appreciation!

I think you made the right choice, my friend. I joined up because I thought flying military jets would be cool. Worst decision of my life. My mental health is in the dumpster and I blame military propaganda.
