Seems like it is no fun living in The Best Country in the World™.
Waking up everyday and it’s a different “thank god I don’t live in the USA” I say, usually after reading any news related to the usa
Can’t believe you’ve got me supporting something hypothetical Trump did
Why the fuck would you support 2500 % Tariffs on anything?!?!?
Ohhhhhhhh. Nevermind.
Typical leftist, won’t even show a shred of empathy to the profit margins of the American cock and ball torture device industry!
(/s because I have lost faith in people)
Why are libral killing the torture industry??
I am really annoyed at whoever taught him the word tariff.
Just live out of spite
Thats how I’m mentally gaslighting myself nowadays
“…I just shrug it off, comment ‘lol’ and go back to work where I slave off to a billionaire and pay taxes to a fascist government”
He’d just be doing that to harass women for breaking the rule.
Bullshit!
The tariffs on the tools required for the mandatory cock and ball torture would be set higher than for everything else imaginable.
In previous news there has been this EU initiative of adopting cute twinks and offering honest woodcutting work for tomboys, maybe it is still up
i suggest leaving.
it’s better outside.
Plenty of people literally can’t leave
far more people can leave.
I’d like to help both.
far more people can leave.
There’s no way this could be true.
it is.
Far more people can leave the US than cannot leave the US.
How are you coming to this conclusion?
Yeah. We are one of the most populous countries in the world. 300 million people. And most countries are shutting down migration.
transportation and travel fundamentals.
???
Where are these hundreds of millions of people travelling to?
Obviously “can” is subjective.
“Can” people afford a plane ticket to somewhere? Probably.
Would their quality of life in that destination be satisfactory? In most cases, no.
““can” is subjective.”
They can or cannot. Pretty clear-cut.
'“Can” people afford a plane ticket to somewhere? Probably."
Yup.
“Would their quality of life in that destination be satisfactory?”
also a strong yup. higher to much higher quality of life.
Higher pay, fewer hours, better social support, better infrastructure, more opportunities.
I have no intention to leave because this is my home. These naive fascists think America is just the government and economy, but those have always been it’s worst features. I’m gonna stay and I’m gonna enjoy myself until the bullet passes through my brain. I’m gonna make sure it stains their nicest carpets and finest dress, because I know they love seeming civil and clean.
nobody is going to make you leave, I’m offering advice and encouragement for people who do want to leave or feel hopeless about their prospects.
couple things here:
“I’m gonna stay and I’m gonna enjoy myself until the bullet passes through my brain. I’m gonna make sure it stains their nicest carpets and finest dress,”
-
it’s much easier to die for a cause than to live for a cause.
-
you can do a lot more damage alive than dead.
-
your life is worth a lot more than inconveniencing somebody’s carpet.
as an example, if you travel for 11 months out of the year, you don’t have to pay earned income tax, and taking away revenue from the government is going to do a lot more harm than you being dead.
especially because I don’t see any evidence for this:
“they love seeming civil and clean.”
I don’t think they like being clean so much as they don’t care about being dirty in public anymore.
Oh, but I do want them to be filthy and dirty in public. In fact, I’m almost pleased that they’re so unhinged nowadays, because it’s not an issue peace lovers can ignore anymore. They put off real resistance for too long.
The main reason I’m prepared to die isn’t because I don’t want to live. I’m just planning on living as obnoxiously and proudly as possible. I want queer people to be an issue no one can ignore, and being visible in today’s world is very very dangerous. I don’t want to die, but I will never live quietly. I’m gonna dance on the carpets of the rich and nothing but lethal, blood staining violence will stop me.
"…filthy and dirty in public.’
they really have been for a while now.
you got your wish.
“planning on living as obnoxiously and proudly as possible.”
go for it, my concern is that you won’t achieve what you want this way.
“I want queer people to be an issue no one can ignore,”
I think this is another goal you’ve already achieved, queer people in general are an issue nobody is ignoring already.
on the good side, the prevalence of queer culture is higher than it’s ever been, even in conservative enclaves like the US.
on the bad side, the most powerful people in a few countries like tge US are so afraid of glitter that they’re trying to override the other two branches of government in a vain efforts to shove the fancypants genie back in the bottle.
but that’s the thing about genies and bottles, though.
“being visible in today’s world is very very dangerous”
in some places, it is.
in other places it’s totally normal and accepted to be as visibly queer as you like, as it has been forever because other cultures have never been binary.
I support whatever course of action fulfills you and hope your activism achieves the further goals you are working toward, and also hope you’re aware that becoming a martyr is not the only or possibly most effective way you can be useful to your movement.
