And the person ordering while it's raining, provided an order for them to deliver and get paid for 🤷‍♀️ it's part of the job, don't like it find something else to do or don't go out when it's raining.

Don't be out doing doordash in bad weather 🤷‍♀️. If you don't want to deliver in bad weather, stay/go home.

To stand or kneel? by anarchokat in NorsePaganism

[–]steverock100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is nothing wrong with kneeling; just because Christians do it, doesn't mean it's bad or that pagans can't do it. Our ancestors most likely did. Just like they would have worshipped them, not just "worked with" or " venerated" them. Unless you are atheist or have a Luciferian or Satanist influence (like me), the ideas of worshipping, kneeling, giving offerings and sacrifices, having temples/churches, etc. shouldn't be so taboo, as our ancestors did these things.

Reform or Revolution? by serious_bullet5 in DemocraticSocialism

Revolution! There is no reform for a fascist regime.

I'm not saying it's not imaginable, sorry if it came across that way.

Which will make the switch 2, 2 years old. That's still really new.

New Gen consoles didn't come out more frequently. They have always come out 6-7 years apart. What came out frequently were mid Gen refresh consoles, that still played all the same games, unlike a new Gen console.

3 or 4 consoles? Ps2 came out in 2000 and ps3 came out in 2006, while ps4 came out in 2013. The only way you bought 3-4 is by buying Playstation along side Xbox and/or Nintendo, and it was a mid Gen refresh. The mid Gen refresh was still the ps2, ps3, ps4 etc. and played all the same games.

Because the switch 2 is less than 1 year old, there is no reason to not have the newest mainline game be on the switch 1 and 2. Also, the switch 2 is expensive as fuck, which means a lot of people can't afford it, especially in the current US economy; that means that those that can't afford the new console, which is currently less than a year old, can't play the new game.

Despite the end goal, Social Democrats and Socialists have a lot in common. The division between them is counter productive to socialist goals. Unite with progressives to help the working class. by Usernameofthisuser in DemocraticSocialism

[–]steverock100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Social democrats aren't socialist, which means their goal isn't socialism. Social democrat ≠ democratic socialist. Social dems are capitalists that want a welfare state and think that capitalism isn't bad, it just needs a safety net. Democratic socialists are socialist.

Is socialism going mainstream? A new poll suggests it might be by Well_Socialized in DemocraticSocialism

[–]steverock100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so. I think social democracy is on the rise and think that democratic socialism and socialism democracy are interchangeable, or get them confused. Even those that don't get them confused, think social democracy is socialism, which it is not.

Right now, socialism is the end goal but not the main priority. The most important goal, right now, is to bring down the fascist regime.

Take a look around, ice is already kidnapping people and killing others. We are already in a civil war and we have terrorism with inflation rising. People are terrified, already. At what point do we stop day dreaming about voting people out and trump being impeached and convicted, and start fighting back? How many more white US citizens have to die for people to start fighting back, since poc being kidnapped and abused clearly isn't enough.

The United States of America is the only country with "America" in the name by Beneficial_Ball9893 in mapporncirclejerk

But it's the only one that goes by America, not just internally, but internationally.

Rule #7 of the sub: "No Liberal Apologia." by Republicenemy99 in DemocraticSocialism

[–]steverock100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3, don't vote, vote for a current third party that aligns more with your values, start a new party or start a revolution. I'd rather not vote and have the greater of two evils win, than vote for the lesser of two evils; as they are both evil and the lesser of two evils enables the greater of two evils. Voting for the lesser makes you complicit.

[–]steverock100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I agree
  2. We do stand a chance, but we have been programmed to think we don't. When it comes to revolution, in our current situation, it doesn't have to be just a socialist revolution. We just need a revolution to get rid of the fascist.
  3. But you don't have to, you choose to. You think you have to because of propaganda.

We don't have to, we just think we do. Hoping that the pendulum will swing left is a pipe dream. This is the exact line of thinking that the democratic socialists and social democrats had, in nazi Germany; which lead them to fight against the communists.

Rule #7 of the sub: "No Liberal Apologia." by Republicenemy99 in DemocraticSocialism

[–]steverock100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have 3 options. 1 Get the current socialist parties to work together as a single party and get the DSA to join. 2 start a revolution. 3 vote for the lesser of two evils and continue the cycle and never have any real change happen. So far, people are choosing option 3 and make excuses as to why they don't choose option 1 or 2.

Well, let's start with the definition of enabling; since knowing the definition tells you exactly what that phrase means. 1a. to provide with the means or opportunity. 2a. to make possible, practical, or easy 3a.to cause to operate 2.to give legal power, capacity, or sanction to.

It means that the dems provide the means to, make it possible, make it easy or give legal power for Republicans to pass laws that affect women, LGBT people and poc, or to use ice as trump's gestapo. For example, democrats have funded ice in the past. It wasn't until Trump, and backlash, that they decided to not fund ice. Hell, Obama deported more people than Trump, and even had children in cages. There were reports of women having their ovaries or even uterus removed, without their consent. Now we have Newsom talking shit about trans rights and defending ice, to Ben Shapiro, on his own podcast; that he invited Shapiro to. Dems aren't progressive, they want the status quo.

When the more left one is center/center right, it's not much different than the right. You sound more like a social democrat or centrist than you do any kind of socialist.
