Always the least funny guy showing you a standup comedy clip on YT- maybe it’s something that you have to see in person because I’ve never seen a special that made me forget the time I lost watching the next big sex pest fail to leave a positive impression on anyone in the crowd who won’t follow them through their “career” until they capitulate to the right to regain a shred of notoriety

Folks being brutalized and ripped off the streets- sent to continents some of them have never stepped foot on. Yet the most heavily armed populace in the world has yet to lift a finger.

Any cop who’s scared or distrustful of the average civilian is delusional, and unaware of just how pacified the U.S populace is.

You want to coddle them- I want to give them pretext for fear and see you justified to be worried on their behalf, yet still wrong for seeing them as people worth any care.

Break your electoral chains

“If we could just get rid of one guy all would be saved” good one

You’re in U.S occupied Korea so you should know shit’s fucked beyond just one guy

What’s improved since you impeached a 3rd president in the last 20 years? A less outwardly corrupt president was elected?

Yes.

I need my Tankie siblings to look at these comments and tell me it’s worth conversing with any of these people lmao, let them play in their own shit. If they’ll ever be convinced, the material failures of their worldview will do it for us, if not- the future’s ash and fertilizer welcome them.

Yes, funny that you mentioned the American perception of danger.

Any time I mention visiting a country outside of western europe / the caribbean tourist hell- I literally get told I’m going to be chopped up or murdered.

I think any american willing to travel outside of the aforementioned places is someone with a mind already changed. For me it only confirmed what I already knew about the rest of the world.

And some of your replies are very correct, and a surface level conversation with most american hogs will prove it: the majority have not traveled abroad and many aren’t even well versed in the states / workings of their own country.

I think the death penalty is silly even from an evil standpoint, death is a kind release compared to life in an American prison.

This is a difficult topic because on the one hand I don’t believe banning weapons addresses the root problems of violence in the first place (access to automatic weapons in the USA has decreased yet mass shooting are way up), but at the same time recent events have shown that despite being the most armed populace in the world, U.S americans refuse to even lift a finger while people are being ripped off the streets and shoved through concentration camps.

An armed people can still be a docile people.

I will mention though, even with bans- it is extremely easy to produce automatic firearms both conventional and 3-printed. I’m not convinced that a ban would be effective at hindering mass shooters in the U.S. We can bring up the statistics of other countries that lack the same firearm access of the US but I’m not sure those are apples to apples comparisons given the differences in material conditions.

Trust that I agree with you on this, I use the word “master” intentionally though- as we are subjected to their whims without any say in the matter.

There are also many of us who are (unwittingly) dependent or addicted to their products / services. You and I both know plenty of people who give into almost every impulse incentivized by these products, especially when in the form of entertainment.

Our communities are now choc full of slaves and solicitors- a master is an enemy yes, but only when his slaves know who owns them.

It will be as bad as it is now with an even higher intensity.

We will see it continue to be used as a substitute for research, learning, critical or even surface level thinking, and interpersonal relationships.

If and when our masters create an AI that is actually intelligent, and maybe even sentient as depicted in movies- it will be a thing that provides biased judgments behind a veneer of perceived objectivity due to its artificial nature. People will see it as a persona completely divorced from the prejudices of its creators as they do now with chat GPT. And who ever can influence this new “objective” truth will wield considerable power.
