Fair

I agree we are here now. Things are already collapsing.

The person I was commenting toward appeared to be all for accelerationism, regardless of who gets hurt.

And it's hard for me to tell left and right acceleration apart. Within that context.

I'm an anarchist, in action. So, I stand up to authority. But I also recognize that setting a match and burning it down is going to hurt a lot of innocents.

Not just people, other life on this planet too.

Anyway, their comment reminded me of somebody that would vote for Trump even though they are leftist just because they want to see the empire burn. Or someone who would stay home on their couch and refuse to vote for Harris for similar reasons.

Left accelerationism and right accelerationism both cause lots of vulnerable people to suffer.

Give it a break. Do you see Bernie out there doing this shit?

Maybe take his lead and look to the future instead of the past.

They already are. Montana passed an indecency bill targeting trans folks.

Project 2025 plans to make trans ideology pornography. So me being in public would be exposing a child to pornography.

I expect they will pass that within the next two years federally.

Because it's not about majority rules but the bottom line.

In other words, those 30 some odd percent could be so disgusted by LGBT content that they will cancel. Or stir shit up and cause a boycott. Where as the majority just really doesn't care one way or the other.

The majority may be vocal about this, but that doesn't matter as long as the bottom line isn't affected.

Giving into a toddler who is throwing a tantrum, is not how you get what you want from a toddler .

It's how you get more tantrums.

Yeah, I actually picked up on that yesterday.

Someone that sent to traditional medicine gave me some. I think I will avoid it in the future.

And I edited my comments above to reflect that this morning

Okay crypto-fascist whatever you say

I appreciate the correction. I'm not sure where I found that about endocannabinoids.

Anyway, ghost pipe does contain an aspirin metabolite and is medicinal. It also may be toxic.

Actually don't suggest using it as traditional medicine and I will add that to my original comment.

It has the same chemical in it aspirin does when you metabolize aspirin, so it's good as an anti-inflammatory.

Edit: after doing a little bit more research and being corrected below, I am editing this.

While ghost pipe has been used as traditional medicine, and some people still use it as traditional medicine, it could also be toxic.

I don't disagree. Still, Trump threatening world war 3 is a big deal because Russia and the US have most of the nukes.

My point stands, the world needs to pay attention. I'm sure they are though.
