Gotcha.
I didn’t think about it that way-- thanks for pointing it out.
I guess it just infuriates me that anyone even thinks that way.
Gotcha.

Get out of here.
A teenager should not have to sell her body for financial stability.
And for power? Power often translates into domestic abuse-- just look at how RFK Jr. drove his wife to suicide by denying her their children by abusing his power.
And religion? That’s even worse.
We do not need to be following any rule sets written in times when humans did not comprehend the complexities of human cognition and healthy mental & psychosocial development.
The only reason you gave that has any merit is that it is recommended that when someone you love is in a victim in an abusive relationship you maintain a positive relationship with the victim so that their abuser cannot isolate them from their support system, which makes the victim more likely to escape an abuse relationship.
Guess what?
Boycotting instructions and lists of MAGA businesses to avoid are spread at the protests.
Maybe you would know that if you actually attended one instead of being lambasted on the internet over your idiocy.
I can only assume you are all bots meant to discourage people from protesting, and others would be wise to report and call out these accounts.
What does protesting even do?
That’s five million Americans standing in solidarity.
That’s five million Americans connecting, organizing, and sharing resources.
That’s five million Americans not shopping or working that day.
That’s five million Americans being inspired to run for office and support others who are.
These protests are only going to get bigger and bigger as the word spreads.
Join them, or STFU about how nobody is doing anything.
Five million Americans protested on April 5th.
Maybe if people like you actually showed instead of burying your head in the sand we’d have the results you are craving.
If you are on the side of Justice, your stance is the wrong one to take.
Solidarity is the right way forward. Take a break when it gets to be too much, but you cannot tune out just because you are upset.
Hey, thank you so much for compiling this! I’ll check some of these events out with bae.
Oh, you rather not hear how you’re getting fucked over just so that later you can be all outraged nobody told you?
Get that “who cares” attitude out of here.
We all care.
Anyone who says it does not matter is a Russian bot for all I care.
I’m proud of y’all. You got this!
Hey, thank you so much for sharing the article with us.
I appreciate it.
Do everyone a favor and don’t reshare their hateful garbage.
The fact that the marines didn’t demand he take his hat off speaks against their own values.
They should not make an exception because he is the vice-president.
This was important for me to read, thank you.
I understand that most nations were founded via genocide, but can you imagine feeling any pride on your country whatsoever when the whole world is regularly watching 4K footage of your nation bombing destitute women & children?
Like, goddamn.
Israel is forever cursed by its own cruelty.
In the United States, maybe.
The rest of the world is doing much better, especially since people are studying what is happening to the USA.
I wrote a different comment you can look up, but to combat red pilling, we all need to get more involved in youth programs and make ourselves available to growing adults and help provide structure & guidance.
The 1% exist because the boomers voted for Reagan and voted for Trump.
And it’s not that boomers are better off dead-- my mama is a boomer, and I love my mama!
Everyone who knows her does!
My mama is an indigenous woman who lives on a mountain, probably has negative carbon footprint on this planet because she never wants anything but good company and old-ass movies. She is always out there helping strangers, taking stray dogs to the vet to get spayed, picking up trash, planting flowers, etc.
She’s happy.
But even she’s like “I’m ready to peace out, the world’s too complicated for me, most my family is suffering, and all the people I grew up are dead or dying.”
That’s not what very powerful boomers like Trump, Netanyahu, Pelosi, Schumer, Mr. Brain-worm-with-measles, etc. are doing, and there’s a ton of them that will not step down until death takes them.
Hopefully we’ll all be the wiser from this experience, about prioritizing happiness over control.
I hear you, if you think about this:
Technocrats are a group of people.
Boomers are an enormous generational cohort.
A cohort that is really struggling to let go of power and allow their descendants to shape the world.
Most of them were raised to always put their careers first, so that’s all they know how to do-- they don’t know how to just smoke a blunt and chill like the cool boomers do.
Likewise, while I’m undoubtedly one of the cool millennials, the time will come when it will be obvious to me that it is time for us millennials and our antiquated ways to go, and allow the new world to use the resources and the space we will leave behind.
It’s part of the natural cycle of life on this planet.
So it behooves us to do everything we can so that our descendants are mostly sad that we are gone, instead of deeply relieved we’re finally dead.
Years ago, I read a scientific journal article about how male elephant aggression increased drastically after the older male elephants (bulls) in the herd were killed by poachers and hunters for their big tusks.
The article explained that the bulls provided structure for the younger males by basically slapping them over the back of the head whenever the younger males did something not very cash money.
Not only that, the bulls were also role models for the younger dudes on how to sweet talk the ladies, because after the bulls were killed, the lady elephants were rejecting the younger male elephants because they were huge fucking douches-- even the fucking elephants are dealing with incels.
All it takes is the removal of safety nets in our communities, and their absence means we are all struggling really hard to work, parent, volunteer, teach, and mentor all these children growing up while being aware their whole childhood that the future looks really bleak for them.
I think younger generations are angry and depressed, and that’s coming out as racism, sexism, transphobia, anti-immigrant rhetoric, etc. They are flocking to Joe Rogan because their only friend at school got into Joe Rogan and well, they don’t have other older gentler friends to smack them upside the head with the elephant trunk of wisdom.
Society has failed them, so they want to change it to what they think would work for them.
If we take the time to engage with as many young people as we can, and provide hope and guidance, we can better combat the red pilling.
Many of us do not take the time to coach youth sports, do the big brother/sister program, or volunteer to help at community events for children.
So when these kids grow up, they don’t have a healthy ring of cool adult models to emulate or ask advice from.
I am proud to say I have many friends 10-20 years younger than me, and I have loved watching and helping to guide them all to grow into compassionate and thoughtful adults.
And at least one of them started out as a red pill incel, so you have me to think for turning him to the side of compassion, love, and critical thinking.
You are ALL welcome-- it weren’t easy.
The boomers will die eventually, and with them, their antiquated ideas.
The world is now aware billionaires are a huge issue and countries around the world are taking more precautions to prevent what is happening to the USA from happening in their countries.
Religious fascists will always be an issue, but we can combat that with education, taxing churches, and persecuting people like Alex Jones, Joe Rogan, and Elon Musk.
That’s why they all rallied behind Trump-- they know their days are numbered and the people want their fat heads in the guillotines.
I’m a birdwatcher.
My eyesight and my hearing ain’t shit.
That child has been failed by her parents and your father is a predator.
I’m so sorry for you and for her.
