My local FreeGeek was selling $5 e-readers in an e-reader bin this weekend.

You claim that each group fighting for their own unique needs and rights is some how splintering our unity. You do know intersectionality is a thing, right? Just because I’m for gay rights doesn’t mean I’m against black rights. Each group has their own unique needs and there is some interplay between them but there is absolutely no shame or downside to communicating those unique needs.

What you claim sounds very similar to an argument I often hear from right-wingers. “Gays and Lesbians already have equal rights. They have the right to marry someone of the opposite sex just like everyone else.”

There is a difference between equality and equity.

You claim that is the fault of minorities demanding equal rights that inequality in wealth has risen rather than put the blame squarely where it’s deserved: the right wing, and people who couldn’t be bothered to vote against the right wing (or worse, the people discouraging others from voting for the only opposition party to the right wing).

You claim that “leftists” are that different from tankies but judging by your own rhetoric which is incredibly hostile to minorities, I’d say they are quite the same.

I think the main thing that is unnecessarily gendered is they are trying to push the “blue is the only manly color” thing in this image.

You make it sound like discrimination is something that only happened recently and that it’s some kind of conspiracy invented by the rich instead of something that has literally been around since the dawn of humanity. Hell it’s not even a trait unique to humanity.

Everyone being equal sounds great and all. Show me a left wing country that’s achieved it.

Pretending everything can be magically solved by wealth equality is pure class reductionism and this fantasy has never been borne out by reality. Different groups experience different forms of discrimination and each has different needs. Not to mention the “left” isn’t without it’s share of abhorrent views. Check out the recent posts of !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works to see transphobia and queerphobia from leftists you claim desire equality on full display.

Maybe if you guys were better at gender bending you wouldn’t have lost the sexuality wars.

I mean it wouldn’t be a problem if people didn’t get angry about minorities having rights.

The reason the rich are pushing right-wing politics is that they know socially conservative people are ready to give the wealthy whatever they want so long as they can tread on the humanity of minorities. So a large part of the problem is there truly are a lot of deplorable people who have some truly abhorrent views and the rich are taking advantage of that. Is the rich taking advantage a problem? Sure, but the bigger problem is that these people with these views exist in the first place and are easily manipulated.

If the rich could get tax cuts from pushing for social rights for minorities they would do that instead, but social liberals are less gullible than the conservatives.

It’s pretty easy to explain too. Social media and traditional media are all owned by billionaires and they want to push a rightwing agenda because that means less taxes for them and fuck everyone else.

Verge? I think he’s been well past that point for a while now.

I took kung fu as a teen and I remember my teachers telling me a story about how the grandmaster essentially beat up a homeless person for asking for money.

I think they were trying to communicate how badass the grandmaster was but it just made him seem like a dick.

where does one get ghost gun STLs anyway? Thingiverse? Etsy?

Asking for a friend

It’s more about how I feel inside.

i mean, they’re not wrong.

I’m naked right now so all of these options leave me naked.

I just need to open my work laptop and watch it utterly fail at even the most basic tasks for me to be convinced our level of technology is no where near where it needs to be to start sticking electronics in people’s heads.

Umm, maybe because they killed, raped, and kidnapped hundreds thousands of innocent Israeli citizens. Hamas deserves to be and must be wiped out. But innocent Palestinians don’t deserve to suffer.

Any speech he makes is bizarre. This is not news.

In America if they saw a brown man pinning down a dude with a knife, the cops would shoot the brown guy.

Bad eyesight confirmed.
