Another one bites the dust.
I admit it, I once assumed Elon was a genius.

Okay, not a genius, but a good businessman.

Okay, a bad businessman, a good PR person.

Okay, a bad PR person, but not a Nazi.

Well fuck, he's a Nazi supporting conspiracy theorist.
God damn, if I was that wrong about one person. I'm just gonna stop having opinions about famous people. It's all smoke and mirrors.
Random guess, it grants some sort of overreaching privilege to some agencies and they are clinging onto that overreaching power?
Anyone got a real answer?
The court was respected when I was a kid.
The court no longer has respect.
What right wing institutions are trying to do (and in many cases achieving) with governing bodies is transparent.
The court is as corrupt as the Congress and the Senate. A government of lobbyists, for the corporation, by the corporation. Fuck the people.
I don't get it. Well I do. But I've yet to have a satisfactory conservative response to the following :
Intersex people exist. That is, at least 1 out of every 1,750 babies are born with both sexual organs. Therefore by their existence we know that there is a blurred line between genders and those people exist there. Even if I go along with them that transgender behavior is a mental illness (it's not, this is just a thought experiment), what exactly do they propose we do about intersex individuals who are literally neither male nor female?
1 out of 1,750 would put the intersex population in the United States at approximately 194,000 individuals. For reference, that would be about 10% of the population of Nebraska or Idaho. That's how many people I am discussing and who seem to always be left out of the conversation.
Ah, he's emotional. People shouldn't be outwardly emotional, especially men. Otherwise I can't absorb the content of their message. /s
Joke aside, did you have a point? One could alternatively say that he's passionate about the fights he chooses. Should we not all aspire to be passionate about the fights we choose?
I suppose I'm not making the connection with what this comment has to do with the content of the video. At which timestamp do you feel he was emotional and how do you feel it effected the overall message?
"Is he bipolar schizo?"
What a cunt of a human being. He used a child-like level of insulting language, escalated at evey situation, tazed needlessly and without warning, and made zero attempts to do anything but bark orders to a person who is CLEARLY in a distressed mental state and unable to comply.
As bad as it is, situations like these make me do a little cheer in my head every time I see an article where a police officer dies.
They kill so many people compared to every other civilized nation, hopefully they die at increased rates as well. It's only fair, right?
I admit I feel guilty to feel that way, but it's the result of seeing the police betray the public at every turn. Crushing protests, shooting people running away, beating people senseless for seemingly nothing, slamming a man to the pavement walking to work which broke his skull and left him with life long brain damage. Shouting at EVERYONE for EVERYTHING. Illegally arresting people shouting "STOP RESISTING" as the person is contorted and unable to move. While raining punches and knees down on men, women, children (especially black children) who are face down on the ground. All while communicating like impatient children. Expecting the public to bow to them without question. It's all so old and ubiquitous.
There are thousands of these videos at this point. They've been terrors for long before we all had cameras. Now we just see it.
Just remember, if you have a problem and call the police, now you have two problems.
Fuck the police. ACAB. etc.
Nope. They found out most folks are cool with the gays, educated people found out the "blacks commit crime" is actually "poor people commit crime", everyone uses thc, we're increasingly done with religion, media is representative of more than white cowboys who can only grunt "I'm manly!", and we are friends with aethiests, hindis, muslims, and jews.
Therefore we are obviously insane and have to die.
I'm glad she's doing this, but for reasons opposite her agenda.
I grew up long enough ago to remember the vitriolic hatred people had at even a suggestion that they might be gay. Kids would violently attack other kids to assert their straightness. And hearing the f-word was a regular occurrence. Literally any disagreement? F-word came out.
I could be wrong about this, I'm not a kid today, but I assume kids today don't understand how bad it was. I'm glad she's doing this because the majority of kids are fine with gay and queer lifestyles in a way that would have bent my tiny brain when I was a kid. So they might have a hard time imagining how strong the hate for those things once was.
This woman serves as a villain, to show kids that hate is still out there and that being an ally to the queer community matters. I think that her plan will eventually backfire, because the way to combat folks like her is to normalize being gay even more than it is now.
She will go down in history as a relic of hate. A woman to be pitied and nothing more.
How awful that she ruins peoples' lives as a game. What a horrid husk of a person.
No surprise.
"I'm the victim! I'm so much the victim that if you don't recognize it, I will discriminate against myself! Okay done, now that I've been discriminated against (by my own words), can we shoot the protestors like Palestinian children?"
I'm not trans, just a middle aged dude, but it gives me a bit of hope that the trans community has these sorts of options when it feels like half the world wants to deny you your preferred existence. Shitty that you have to, but glad that you can.
Fuck the bigots. Fuck the church. Fuck bad-faith politicians. Fuck the lies of conservatives. And fuck the people who can't or won't see the media doing the same thing to trans folk they did to gays mere decades ago.
Idiots, cruel intolerant, controlling idiots, the lot of them.
Say what you want about Hitler, but he killed Hitler.
