And nothing would happen.

Can’t it be both?

Religious?

Here for it

That’s exactly how it works.

My inbox is nothing but absolute muppets tying themselves up in knots to defend their cowardice.

Imagine what it would be like to be the one bootlicker who downvoted this

This would require the bullshit “opposition” to stop cowering. Non-starter.

I’ve lived both, am fully addicted to my phone, and genuinely believe we were better off then.

Two outta three?

I hope you get everything you deserve.

Some beliefs require retribution. Some causes are righteous. Fuck off with your false equivalencies. Rioters aren’t employed by the people- law enforcement is.

Especially those unwilling to fight back.

I mean… yes.

To be fair, your brain is a pattern-matching system.

When you catch a ball, you’re not doing the physics calculations in your head- you’re making predictions based on an enormous quantity of input. Unless you’re being very deliberate, you’re not thinking before you speak every word- your brain’s predictive processing takes over and you often literally speak before you think.

Fuck LLMs- but I think it’s a bit wild to dismiss the power of a sufficiently advanced pattern-matching system.

Someone just tried to educate you. Which part of what you were just told are you taking issue with?

To Americans, their national heroes are just Disney characters without families, jobs, or dreams who never actually had anything to lose and whose victories were guaranteed.

Then stop giving them cover for their cowardice

Americans are cowards. Period.

The constitutional right to be ARMED TO THE TEETH and they’re all pissing their pants in fear of… losing their jobs? They literally sat there, watched the worst of humanity seize power, and spent their political capital trying to limit their ability to fight back.

They deserve whatever they get.

not with the house in the hands of republicans.

It’s almost like you should do something about those Republicans.

Best hope there is enough democracy left in the US to swing it back to the Dems in 2026.

This is the silliest fucking thing I’ve ever read. Go fight.
