this style of posting from libs is the exact same brand of capitalist realism as Wall-E.

The point isn't to act on the problem, but just point out the problem ad nauseum to ensure we're locked into bystander-ism.

Same thing that drives this trend of filming acts of state violence as a means of resistance; if we convince people that watching on the sidelines is the same as fighting, then which one will they choose?

So much this. People's lives having become so mediated through "tHe ScReEn" makes me so a-guy

This reminds me of the time kakarot fought a machine people worshipped called luud... Which sounds a lot like luddite. Ha.... Hahaha life is odd vegeta-stare

Goddamn you’re making an excellent point here. Then I saw your username and it all made sense. Clearly you appreciate actions more than mere words. Good stuff.
