I mean it is vague what a downvote even means. Does it mean you disagree? Is it you calling someone a reactionary? Are you trying to shame someone for speaking nonsense? There really is no real consensus to what the votes even represent, what they do do is give you some sense of a general consensus.
yeah I just don’t get why someone would want to have a conversation with a chatbot. Is it just comfort? There is no repercussion to sounding ignorant, or mean spirited, or depressed, etc. So I get why if you feel the need to chit chat something that can fundamentally not stonewall you could feel good, but you aren’t progressing in any form of real relationship, there is nothing on the other end that hears what you told it, its an empty enigma of information that will be spit out what you told it to some other person who finds its comforting to spew their thoughts into that void. Its also shit as an intermediary, even text leaves out basically every form of emotion, body language, tonality, etc. to socializing, why would you want your message to be tailored into something you didn’t come up with.
I find that you have to have some outlet where you are able to just get lost in that thing. I don’t look at the pursuit of happiness of something you focus on, but the resisting of unhappiness being something that you improve by doing things that you don’t exactly focus on but your mind gets lost doing them, this doens’t mean your mind is not working, its similar to a flow state, your mind feels at ease even if the task is challenging or just something simple as talking a walk in nature.
There’s a reason why BDS isn’t just B. Boycotting has many limitations.
because hating nazis isn’t anti-german bigotry. The same way hating zionists should never be anti-jewish bigotry. There are black and brown skinned nazis, fascist ideologies aren’t coherent and blanket hating of jews and not qualifying them when they are zionists is exactly what Israel wants the common sentiment to be. Do I care if palestinians or yemenis aren’t careful with their language while actively fighting Israel though? No. Israel stamps jewish symbols onto these peoples heads, they can sort out the language after their struggle.
Its like artificial selection to get rid of autistic kids. Sweet jello already bothers me, savory or fishy gelatin seems like a nightmare.
muh parliaments
Reddit is in full vote blue no matter who mode. That includes any and all forms of veterans who have “decorum” but likely killed, directly or indirectly, magnitudes more children. Brunch libs will never learn that ICE, the police, and the military are the same wing of “state violence”, ala imperialism.
had me in the first half, happy bday comrade.
On the ground combat in gaza says otherwise. These will be used to infiltrate places a squadron would attempt to.
I’m in the US as well. Even if its tiny, the small push-backs you make towards platner, even if the average american lib never understands what it means to be anti-imperialist, chips away at the hegemony of ideology bit by bit. You already have moronic reddit libs who aren’t nearly as sinophobic as they once were just 5 years ago. People sucked off Elon musk not long ago too. Even if there is an absolute limit to where the American left/liberals can reach, agitating is still better than not, being alive doing as much as you can (don’t get tripped up on the idea that since you are in the imperial core its all or nothing) still chips away at the hegemony of political thought. Remember you probably landed in this space because of things you read that sounded ridiculous at the time now resonate with you. Keep doing what you know is true.
