So, by that logic, what is your problem with Hamas?

We need a party that is actually anti-oppression and doesn’t just pay it lip service.

Explain then. What happened before then that gives anyone the right to starve millions of people to death and bomb 10,000’s of children?

What magical mystical process bequeaths one all power over life and death?

Is it written in a book somewhere? Perhaps an old one that’s been translated and transcribed a whole bunch over thousands of years so the original meaning is lost to the ages? Sounds EXCITING!

I’m not really sure what you are insinuating. That I think history in the Middle East started with the division of Palestine and Israel maybe?

My comment was that nothing happens in a vacuum, unlike what the Zionists and other extremists would have you believe.

It did. And then the following years happened. And before Oct 7, a whole bunch of other years and days happened. Those all factor in too you know, right?

As am I. Want to set up a little lemonade-esk stand outside the capital? We can sell big pitchers of distilled rage. Or crystalized rage for the heavy user.

That’s what I don’t get. Like, yes people will take advantage of anything. Literally anything. But the absolute maximum amount that someone is able to screw out of SS is PALTRY compared to even a SINGLE BUSINESS’S unpaid taxes that the GOP seemingly cannot even perceive.

You and me, brother.

That’s my favorite Bible story.

Ok but actually though, who the fuck has $3000 in CASH just for going out to eat???

Sounds like there’s going to be a lot of bodies in line (and on the ground) during voting.

But when the left calls the right Nazis for disappearing people off the streets for daring to speak out against them, we are called alarmist or virtue signalers or whatever the fuck. For the right, those extreme views are rapidly becoming the mainstream.

Maybe the left should follow suit. Just dive headlong into polarization.

Ok but only the craziest fringe believes any of that.

Like you’re taking the most extreme “leftist” views and labeling them the same as all liberals views. To be quite honest, if the entire dem party ACTUALLY believed the things you listed, we would be making great progress.

But it’s just nonsense to drive everything even more right because obviously you don’t agree with those CRAZY Dems right? They want to NUKE ISRAEL!!

Please explain how that could happen? Because it would take a hell of a lot of energy to stop the rotation of the core

I am fully on board with you. When I said humanity would live a few hundred years I meant “there is at least one human alive in some vault somewhere.” It’s entirely possible that you are right, and it’s certain that 99% will be dead in the time you laid out, I just think that it’s surprisingly difficult to kill 100% of anything.

I have considered it as a reason his masters planted that in his head, yes. Or it could just be something he said once and then dementia latched on to it.

Well think it through. Even if the world heats up by 10°C, Antarctica will still be at a livable temperature. People will eek out an existence there like living on Mars, with greenhouses and suits to go outside. It won’t last forever though. Civilization collapse within 50 years, but full extinction will take some time.

Then we shall die on our feet.

Nothing we could conceivably do could ever possibly prevent that entirely. Shit is going to get BAD no matter what we do. We are still maybe able to prevent our extinction/near-extinction in the coming centuries. But famine and disease will be rampant once again in every country. Borders will be guarded with machine guns that are used liberally in many modern western countries.

Are you aware of what everyone is doing in their garages or planning in their minds? Not everyone talks openly about very dire measures that they feel may be necessary in the future. A big part of the pepper community is to not tell people about your stash. I imagine that line of thinking extends to this as it’s basically the same mindset
