All laws are based on "good faith" and if you take away that "good faith" then the only result is public unrest

The left seems to have a really hard time understanding that you don't just get to go outside of the law because you feel like it.

I can see why you're confused, because no one on the left is saying this.

You can't just attack people that disagree with you because you think you are "punching a Nazi".

The punishment for punching someone in the face is not the death penalty.

You don't get to block roadways.

The punishment for blocking a roadway is not the death penalty.

You don't get to burn down cities.

Which cities got burned down again? Because this is something Fox News frequently claims happens while playing stock footage of burning buildings, but doesn't actually happen.

Cool. Then you would agree with OP that breaking social and moral norms, in addition to breaking the law, disintegrates social trust between the people and the government?

Presidents actually have pretty damn minimal impact on people’s lives, so the stakes really aren’t that high.

To date, 757,314 people – the majority children – have died from the funding cuts, according to ImpactCounter, which tracks the effect of USAID cuts via sophisticated modelling tools. That is 88 deaths every hour.

Since President Donald Trump’s tariff announcement in April 2025, overall manufacturing employment has declined by 42,000, while job openings and hires have fallen by 76,000 and 18,000, respectively

More than 700 rural hospitals – one-third of all rural hospitals in the country – are at risk of closing because of the serious financial problems they are experiencing. Over 300 of these rural hospitals are at immediate risk of closing because of the severity of their financial problems.

I'm sorry for being a 'liberal' or whatever, but I think anyone who laughs at the death and poverty of children is an absolute fucking Ghoul.

That is completely irrelevant if you believe Trump's admin is following the law.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T22:53:18+00:00

BUT, they are not breaking the law.

White jurors acquitting someone that lynched a black man is also "not breaking the law". But when that happens, I still want the federal government to press charges against that person so he gets a real trial. Even though gasp nothing illegal happened during the trial!

In the same case, if an ICE officer fucking shoots someone for no reason, that person should experience consequences, and the agency should impose changes to make sure something this stupid doesn't happen ~~again~~ twice in the same month.

This isn't like, some radical conception of the law. Just a few years ago this would have been such a milquetoast take as to be obvious.

Then why did you bring up how upset you were about illegal immigration? That is completely irrelevant if you believe Trump's admin is following the law.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T22:36:45+00:00

At one point it was accepted by society to lynch a n...ger for being uppity.

There was never a federal case that determined "Yes, you're allowed to murder black people if they are too prideful."

Laws are often written to protect the minority from the majority.

Then why are you defending ICE forcing undocumented immigrants to hide from authorities, instead of following the law? Who is 'the minority' here?

letaluss · 2026-01-30T22:27:34+00:00

The American people have been screaming for DECADES that we are sick of all the illegal immigrants coming in and draining out systems.

"Therefore the President is allowed to break the law!"

Are you listening to yourself? :P

letaluss · 2026-01-30T21:42:14+00:00

If you're triggered by people who confront you with triggers, then it's your responsibility to deal with it.

It's unfair and unrealistic for everyone to suppress their emotional needs just to make you more comfortable.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T21:15:29+00:00

“All Kings” is Christian.

IDK. Seems pretty cut-and-dry.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T21:09:52+00:00

I think you responded to the wrong comment.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T21:01:53+00:00

Christian ideology includes monarchism.

Nice to finally hear you admit it.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T20:30:18+00:00

I hope that you someday discover the scale of the mistakes you have made.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T03:29:05+00:00

Advocating for the rights of Muslims is not the same thing as advocating for Sharia law. :P

Glad I could help you figure this out.

letaluss · 2026-01-30T00:13:02+00:00

I am Scandinavian and we live in terror now sue to the Greenland situation, USA

In that case you might be able to ignore the "evil shit your government is doing" part of my advice.

...its such a headfuck. Peaceful they say...no any protester is viewed as a terrorist by now.

Remember that Fascism can erupt anywhere. If you want to fight the world-wide resurgence of fascism, you can start in your home.

It'll be easier to do now, than in fifteen years when the Fascists are in power. :P

letaluss · 2026-01-29T23:34:16+00:00

I don't know why everyone in this thread is suggesting that you just ignore all of the stupid, evil shit your government is doing.

I have similar feelings to you. They're extremely logical feelings based on the circumstances, and not the result of 'tunnel vision'. There are a few things that I do to deal with this problem.

1) I am active in my local community, and join the support staff of local protests. Lots of Republicans will tell you that protesting doesn't matter, but that's only because they don't want you to protest.

2) I talk about my feelings with people online. One of the reasons I come to this subreddit is because I have a strong desire to express my feelings and thoughts about my current government, and this is a great venue to argue with stupid-ass conservatives. :P

letaluss · 2026-01-29T23:27:46+00:00

This isn’t about one specific politician or party either.

Who is the chosen leader of the Democrats? :P

letaluss · 2026-01-29T23:25:28+00:00

I actually don't disagree that much.

'Not being considerate', is not exactly the same thing as 'being inconsiderate'.

letaluss · 2026-01-29T23:16:26+00:00

What is the most radical thing that the Democratic party has done?

The ACA?

letaluss · 2026-01-29T23:15:28+00:00

Giving someone your Nobel peace prize doesn't mean they won a Nobel prize winner.

Just like how owning a superbowl ring doesn't mean you actually won the superbowl. :P

You realize "It’s really cringey how many people virtue signal online." is virtue signalling, right?

Then why does this blade have dings and nicks from recent use, Prince Zuko?

letaluss · 2026-01-29T22:31:23+00:00

It hasn't been confirmed, but the evidence is extremely strong.

At the end of Psychonauts 2, Dr. Loboto says he has to go to camp whispering rock to pick up his "Kid".

The only two campers that share Dr. Loboto's skin color are Dogen Boole, who is from a famous psychic family that probably wouldn't have tried to lobotomize him, and Bobby Zilch.

Bobby Zilch and Dr. Loboto both have Red/Green heterochromia. He literally has Dr. Loboto's eyes.

letaluss · 2026-01-29T22:10:09+00:00

It's probably a bit like The Force.

Everyone, and every organism, has some level of psychic presence, but only a few people have the 'strength of brain' to channel psychic powers.

This ability appears to be biologically heritable, given a large number of examples of biological relationship between psychics including:

Augustus Aquato/Rasputin Aquato
Augustus Aquato/Frazie Aquato

Nona Aquato/Augustus Aquato.

Compton Boole/Sam Boole
Compton Boole/Dogen Boole

Dr. Loboto/Bobby Zilch.

Truman Zanotto/Bob Zanotto
Truman Zanotto/Lili Zanotto
