I got banned for far dumber reasons, so yeah, I belive this 100%. Reddit is a cesspool, and /r/politics is one is the worst examples of propaganda out there. They silence people that voice opinions they don’t like on bogus charges every day.
They actually sometimes are the same thing.
Would any sane person advocate against Hitler’s death after learning what he did?
The difference is that our government sanctioned that target ~80 years ago, but this one was against the law. Both people brought large numbers of innocent people to early graves in this world.
As someone who never uses this platform, this comment made me chuckle.
As a photographer, I can tell you emphatically that it’s not perspective.
Yeah, but Chapelle wouldn’t know… He took a bribe from Musky Boi and now many of his former fans think he’s trash (me included).
Imagine a candidate running against the wealthy. Like, just actively shitting on them daily. They’d get my vote.
Instead, we have Trump… A manchild whose never had to work a day in his life, and had everything handed to him. And Musk (similar story) helped him win. Both are rich bastards that exploit the lower class just like this CEO did.
Yeah, I hear the popular falling out of the window treatment in Russia will definitely end all of your aches and pains!
I have often dreamed of pissing on this thing. If it’s got guards, I’m going to fill a jar and drop it via drone.
It’s this real? Like… Even for Elon this is pretty pathetic and disconnected.
Lol, “humor”? People seem downright giddy, and it’s not a joke at all.
Lol, I appreciate that final line in your comment. So many of us were that close back in 2020… Now things are slated to be worse, and I think I speak for at least millions of Americans when I say we are just fucking over it.
When we’ve tossed out any semblance of justice in our country at the highest levels, literally ruling that the president is immune from all prosecution (you know, like a fucking king), then asshole corpos that indirectly murder countless people getting gunned down doesn’t exactly concern us. In fact, this sort of thing genuinely seems more just than what our highest courts are allowing.
Shit is fucked up in this country, and I don’t think many of us want to pretend otherwise any longer. I’m not advocating violence, but I definitely don’t think I’ll lose sleep over this situation.
Trump has proven this, and the fact Elon (the richest manchild in the world) is literally in his cabinet now only exacerbates the situation.
I don’t think things are radically worse, that’s the interesting thing… It’s the fact we’ve discarded any semblance of justice at the highest levels. Like, nobody is even pretending now. The highest office in the land is about to be occupied by an openly corrupt idiot.
When people lose hope in their leaders, they realize it’s up to them to change the world. Great acts are often done in the fallout of such times. Both acts of great kindness, and great violence.
Injustices become things to act on when you have zero hope of change from the people who should be enacting change.
We really are just a few years away from Cyberpunk, aren’t we? I’d actually say a mix of both that, and Cloud Atlas’ last timeline.
Obama was just like Joe by his second term, he was a piece of shit that did next to nothing. Fuck the democrats (after thoroughly fucking the conservatives, of course). We deserve better than these shitty fucking parties that do nothing for the people.
Your thinking of a plutocracy or a senate.
Lol oh, I allowed it? I’m so sorry, you’re highnesses… But I only get one fucking vote every election. Fuck off now, thanks.
The CCP! Oh, wait… Shit. I lose.
This is even less than a Schrutebuck.
It’s ridiculous seeing people upset by this. Like, do these people have any idea of the long, corrupt list of people Trump pardoned?
I know this is whataboitism, but let’s be real for a minute. Biden sucks, but he’s a saint compared to Trump.
Is this now the real-life “V” Guy Fawkes mask equivalent?
