In my opinion the individual isn’t respected but they’re a stand in to show respect for the people who sacrificed their lives.

Leave Grandma she’s dead weight

It sucks that protest is the only lever we have

I don’t call them protests. I call them “Opportunity to arrest figure heads of whatever movement in order to eliminate momentum and silently kill the cause since no North American protest seems like anything more than cows being led to a slaughter house by cops getting paid overtime to kick heads”

Wait, seriously?

I don’t get how people don’t see this stuff. Yea the average trumpet isn’t out there planning Jack shit. But there are think tanks that are. Remember anti-smoking campaigns. Anti climate change campaign. The precision to purchase advertising into key areas and specific demographics that would spread a message. This is ancient knowledge with modern technology.

Imagine a room full of former Wall Street, quants, established experts from fields like behavioral science and psychology. All with the singular goal to decide where to dedicate a dragons horde of wealth to maximize effect in a world where we all have anonymous pipes directly into our eyes and ears. We never stood a chance. There’s no rich socialist funding think tanks. There’s no counter. We can laugh at the yokel all we want. But the yokel is being puppeteered by some scary fuckers with intention to seize power with the new shifting Zeitgeist. Soldiers don’t need to think. But their generals are. The left are like guerilla fighters going up against an imperial army full of Patons and Eisenhower’s.

Cambridge analytical, heritage foundation, international democracy Union. We’re fucked until we actually recognize why we’re fucked

It’s bait.

They probably have an explanation tweet at the ready to make more sense of it. They just want enough 'hurr durr these idiot" comments before they reverse Uno card this with more context.

Is anyone trying to make stronger copyright laws? Wouldn’t be rich people that control media would it?

Let them. Copyright is bullshit. What’s the issue. He’s right

Vague terms though that makes it easy to think you’re right and they’re wrong. The divide though is that both right and left have different understanding of what is being exploited and what are basic human Rights

I would say maybe it’s something else in that a large portion of their base globally does not see leftist aligned government powers as allies

Lazy Media is a bigger threat

People burn calories at much different rates. Genetics, hormones, and medical conditions, NEAT all play big parts in this equation.

Isn’t that the only thing they do

I think it’s the other way around. Rich people like Musk helped trump reach the white house. Now they’re making him do their bidding. Trump isn’t the master like his base thinks. He’s a puppet for the rich.

I was actually thinking about this. What if Trump is just a Martin shkreli

Hear me out. The board of directors for pharma used Martin as a Patsy to do something illegal. Martin takes the heat while the board reaps the benefits and they throw Martin to the Sharks.

What if this whole thing was all an act and they’re all using trump as a power grab. He’s tearing it all down and it benefits all of them, Democrat and Republican. When trump leaves, there will be so much power given to the owner class in the country while regulation and oversight is not what it was.

You sound like common sense and the other person sounds like they have an axe to grind.

"Just stay away* will only bring it in faster. You need resistance

It’s like when Mom says “just ignore the bullies” a strategy that bullies thrive on because they can bully and know you’ll walk away

It’s like the Nazis how they tried to make everything the same

This is why the left can’t have nice things.

Like this isn’t the point here. You don’t need to be pointing out this stuff. Just dog pile
