I cant hang my hat on, “some day you’ll see i was right.” I am right and I am right, right now.
Your*
Damnit. I’m not good at wods.
Well, fuck anyone who’s crippled, poor, uneducated and untrained - I guess they’re all baddies.
The people who post stuff like this act like every human being should turn into a robot and shoot the nearest Nazi. Just so you’re aware - what you’re saying will never happen. Nor are the people who are refusing ‘baddies’.
So you’re saying we shouldn’t shoot the nearest Nazi? Uhhhhh….
Just following orders, eh. Gotta make a living.
If you want to know why it will never happen I can provide the mirror.
Edit:
I’m reminded of being told by everyone I know that weed would never be legal. We arent fully there yet but no one, I mean no one, predicted we would get this far.
Following orders? No, you’re the one suggesting people drop their lives and turn into robots. I’m the one pointing out nuance - you’re the one suggesting something unrealistic. Are you even aware that if the govt were actually worried about an armed civilian uprising that they wouldn’t be allowed to own guns?
No, seriously, they can see the mole on your left asscheek from orbit and drop a bomb on you in minutes. How fucking dumb do you have to be to think a civilian uprising has a snowballs chance in hell against that kind of military force?
What you’re saying is divorced from reality. By the way, every country is going through far right authoritarian bullshit. I guarantee I could apply what you’re saying to you, right now. Why aren’t you out there killing Nazis?
No, you’re the one suggesting people drop their lives and turn into robots
You’re the fucking robot bro. Must work beep boop beep boop
I’m not suggesting anyone kill anyone. Though, you’re inferencing it tells me you know exactly the extent to how insidious america has become.
Give me an address I will send a full length mirror.
You wake up tomorrow and live your life like normal you’ve conceded to the baddies
Nice, now you’re backpedaling like a fucking coward.
Protests are planned, blind and unorganized resistance is faulty and doomed to fail. Your advice is shit.
Your the problem. Your standing in the way. Put on a maga hat because you might as well.
Your problem is that you can’t figure out which your/you’re you’re supposed to use. I won’t be listening to a dipshit like you, or any of the dipshits that think what you’re saying is right.
I’m glad we aren’t 100% on grey and black market yet but I’m getting damn nervous
Arm up and never let these fucks take you alive. If they do, you’re already dead.
from the article, and it’s “something”-
Not surprisingly, Van Hollen wasn’t allowed to meet with or even place a phone call to Abrego Garcia, but he was able to meet with Salvadoran Vice President Félix Ulloa, who said that El Salvador “can’t” return Abrego Garcia, explaining that the US is paying for his permanent detention without charges, trial, or even a hearing
yes, Garcia is still in a fucked up mess- and quite possibly dead- but, Hollen did get them to state, in official diplomatic discourse, that the reason for it was that trump’s admin was paying them.
We stop paying, and I imagine Garcia will magically come home. (in what state is anyone’s guess.)
It honestly sounds like there is no human decency and El Salvador is basically absolved itself from any interference even if it’s to defend basic human rights so they can keep Trump happy and continue receiving the piddly funds they are promised.
Both countries can get fucked.
Paying another nation to incarcerate someone indefinitely without due process is beyond fucked up. It’s almost impossible to believe that’s our current reality. That’s the sort of thing that I feel the founders of our country would throw a revolution over.
what gets me is that the current shit you’re in isn’t really news from my perspective. The US has been doing horrible things for 80 years now, and nobody batted an eye when it didn’t affect them. What really bothers me is that people start seeing there’s a messed-up situation now.
It shouldn’t bother you. People reacting to bad things is a good thing. If you get upset when the thing you wish happened before happens now the thing you were upset about probably was something else.
Welcome to Nazis America.
we’ve been here for a while, but now they’re going full mask off.
I don’t disagree, but where meme?
It’s a kind of dead-zone problem in Lemmy atm. Politics won’t allow this, news won’t allow this, microblogmemes (also ‘where meme’) and usa@midwest are the only real avenues atm. Until some enterprising young whippersnapper spins up the new hotness community where these kinds of images won’t get hassled in the street for not being that one where the guy is asleep and then he’s awake with red shiny eyes.
The Politics and News communities are strictly for news articles. Why would they allow memes? This is where they are usually posted as this is where they subjectively belong.
I’ve really enjoyed the USA@midwest community. Not as over moderated as many LW comms.
I am defining meme rules because defying the rules is exactly what needs to be done.
I appreciate your energy, but there are communities out there specifically geared towards catering to this particular void and will garner less opposition. For example:
201 upvotes to 3 downvotes doesn’t seem like opposition to me
Ironically enough, Abrego is only in jail because the executive doesn’t give a shit about the rules
Is it ironic? It’s indicative of exactly what authoritarians do. Rules for you, not for me.
Out groups that the law binds and ingroups that it does not bind.
Wise up. These aren’t platitudes.
I know all that, was just saying it’s ironic based on you saying it’s time to break the rules when we’re in this mess thanks to the rule breaker in chief and company.
Didn’t report you or anything though, I’m not a snitch
No worries. I’m just shouting into the void, anyways.
Continiung to follow the same old rules in an attempt to rein in people in power who gained, retain, and exploit that power by flaunting those very rules isn’t going to work.
Wow. Now I’m mad that it is ironic. Thanks a lot :/
