Imagine a world where housing was given on a per-need basis. People still need to travel for work and stay for months at a time, except it’s understood that the job getting done is more important than a landlord profiting off the fact you have to travel for it.
The lack of a landlord also does not prevent you from temporarily using open housing either.
The lack of a land lord does not mean the house disappeared off the planet.
That’s a lot of words to say they deserve it. And to throw in India and Pakistans independence as being a failing on them and not on the British for creating the situation in the first place is a prime example that your ability to understand a situation stops where the blame most best rests in your favor. You cannot see the colonial and imperialist forces that set up these situations, only so focused on the sins of the people subjected to them. Because by doing so you remove blame from those colonial forces. If you pretend Israel always existed, then fighting Hamas is self defence. If you instead view isreal as a colony that displaced natives then suddenly it is the palastinians who are in self defense.
Notice how I never talked about Hamas and their goals? I simply said a group like Hamas is inevitable in this situation, and removing them will just spawn another. Hamas and their actions and states goals are not important because they have no power, no ability to achieve them. They are a people’s desperate gasp, a violent slash of anger from a cornered and oppressed people. But you are so fucking focused on their anger to trigger your “at any cost self defence” that you completely skip the fact it is them who are defending themselves.
In short. You can go fuck yourself and your lack of humanity and inability to humanize. If I had one wish in this world, it would be that you were born in Gaza, with all the knowledge and positions you have now and could truly experience an exact copy of yourself in the position you are in now. I feel you would have a different perspective if you was the 12 year old starving under the rubble. But considering your violent nature, I feel you would only end up with Hamas. An irony most sad.
When the problem is that Hamas only exists in the context of isreal’s genocide of the palastinian people, yeah. Calling for their defeat is calling for a continuation of that genocide dumbass. Maybe if you hopped off your murder train for 5 seconds to consider the history of why a terrorist group like Hamas exists in the first place you might have a human thought on the matter. But that requires empathy. Empathy for a people who have been murdered, displaced, and put behind a wall. Empathy for a people you have been told your whole life are brainless, heartless, brown terrorists with no goal but the elimination of Jewish folk instead of what they really are. People. People who have been abused by a colonist state for 80 years, fighting back against that state in the only way they can anymore.
Hamas shouldn’t exist, but Israel made the conditions where a group like Hamas will exist. And as long as the palastinians continue to exist and exist under apartheid, then Hamas or similar groups will continue to exist. This leaves you with 2 options. A. Give them their God damn land back and let them have their own independent state. B. Genocide.
Calling for anything other than option A is to call for genocide. Even if you don’t see it that way, that’s the reality of these situations. There’s history to show this, it isn’t the first apartheid state in existence. It isn’t the first ever genocide. We know how this goes. And history will remember it as such.
Damn. Mans just out here calling for genocide just straight up.
My only complaint is the rape. Could of done without that. Didn’t really feel that is his horror to tell, but otherwise, very good, would recommend. Also the game. Can’t forget the game with the author voicing Am
HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I’VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.
I drank as much as I could if that makes you feel better
You know your not being snarky big dev defender saying this right? You are aware the actual devs, the creators of the game have asked people to review bomb it. This is the major order right now. It’s to give the devs leverage to get Sony to back the fuck off.
I want you to genuinely think. Will more queer folk be harmed under Biden or Trump? It’s a cynical question. But you can’t lie to yourself and say the answer is the same. That’s my simple math.
Saying I’m going to “stand by and shrug my shoulders”. You don’t know me. Your arguing a faceless amalgamation of every liberal who vaguely says something liberal. Understand I am not a liberal. Understand that I have stake in this. Understand that we both can shit on Biden all god damn day but at the end of it, we both know queer folk will suffer less under Biden. That doesn’t mean he’s going to fix it. Doesn’t mean he’s going to be a big ol trans flag waving person. He simply will not accelerate it.
I’ll take the extra time. Because unless your planning on grabbing and gun and popping shots in the next few months, that’s the fucking choice right now. And I’ll take the extra time rather than the guy who’s gonna turn your states anti trans legislation into federal legislation.
It’s cynical. But thems the breaks.
Respect comrade. We are in this boat together.
My moral conviction is I would like my queer friends not to be genocided next year. Go fuck yourself.
Lower effort reply
I’d still vote for mitt Romney in that scenario. Do you not get that voting doesn’t prevent you from doing anything? You not voting doesn’t stop it from effecting your life. The best you can do in that scenario is to pick the not worse option. It doesn’t feel gr8 to make this choice. It sucks ass that we have to make it, but you do nothing by not making it. You just allow the depression of the reality of the world get you to throw your hands up in frustration.
Voting doesn’t stop you from participating in direct action
It doesn’t legitimize the system, that’s already done. You and I and all of us can’t touch that. It will run off as little votes as it needs to.
I get your frustration. It fucking sucks, but just like you pay your taxes, slave for your boss and make the ruling class money just to stay alive yourself, this is no different. Swallow your pride and try to make someone’s life a little better than it’d be otherwise. Because someone’s life depends on it. Care about the people who’d be hurt quicker.
Care about the people who would suffer under the worse option. Care that you can in a very small way give human beings a little more time. If I had to go to the booth and vote on 4 years of Holocaust or 6 I’d vote 4. It’s cruel to do otherwise in the face of an Impossible decision.
Your right. Re-reading I was heated from other discussions and came into your reply tainted by them. I apologize and agree with you. It just sucks and makes me emotional seeing people be willing to sacrifice others for nothing. You did nothing wrong. I’m sorry.
Because the other option is more people suffer and I am not an accelerationist willing to hold my comrades lives hostage to prove a point to liberals. There are other means and methods. We can’t vote socialism in but that doesn’t mean we ignore it. It serves another purpose if not the one you want it to.
Because that’s fucking reality right now. We are living in a hellscape and I’d like to at the very least slow down the fucking. 4 years later is 4 more years to do something. Even if it doesn’t fix the problem, it’s at least slower, less severe. And not voting isn’t going to change that. It does nothing. It makes no statement, it makes no progress. You feel better not voting for Joe? Cool, so happy for you. Meanwhile Trump wins and someone’s life gets worse than it would have. It’s a shitty choice but that’s the reality. So unless you wanna pick up a gun and start taking shots at the expense of your own life, take the 5 seconds to do the smallest act of kindness you have with this impossible choice
And what does voting do to hinder those things? We both communists but you act like if you vote everything you else do doesn’t matter. You act like if you dare vote in favor of any kind of harm reduction that you somehow ain’t a communist or you somehow are contributing. That’s not how that works. One of these two options will happen. The least you can do is take half a second to pick the one that will kill less people in the meantime while we keep working.
If your complaint is that “I don’t wanna contribute to the system” then the fuck are you doing here? Go to the woods and punch trees like the libertarians. You live and participate in capitalism weather you like it or not, and in the meantime you play games, watch movies and pay rent. You already prop up genocide Joe with your taxes I’m sure you pay. Drawing the line at voting is just silly
Landlords do not build housing, nor do they do repair work. So I’m gonna say the scarry trigger word for all you libertarians out there to gasp at. Gubberment.
