Trying my hardest to be civil in this uncivilised world.

Sounds like post-modern Western BS. Altruism/prosociality/solidarity are already words, the “effective” just makes it sound like something a scammer would say.


Liberal just means “it’s okay to be gay, atheist and smoke weed”, it’s never meant “righteous”, “humane” or “anti-imperialist”.


Fantastic idea! Many already have American passports too. I’m ready for the renaissance of American Jewish humour, they’ve always been a funny bunch. “So what’s the deal with bodegas anyway?!”


They have a homeland, it’s called Poland/Ukraine/Germany/France… I understand that the white man will go full Hitler even with their own but that’s their problem, and certainly not something that should be paid with (actual) Semite blood.


I’m sure their murderous forefathers who came from Europe and killed and displaced their ways into lands and riches, and their descendants who continued their work, were very moral, empathetic and prosocial people, lol.


Morally, being just another Western genocidal settler project, it never had any “right to exist” (whatever that means for ideas and projects). 😞


Some people are easily overstimulated and others are highly unstimulated by default. 🤷♂️ I could never write an essay, for example, without a good playlist in the background!


Depending on mood and activity, it’ll be either Red Letter Media or The Exploring Series. They’re both somewhat popular on YT and have consistent release rates. 👍


They start early, in schools and popular media (Hitler wasn’t even half as bad as Leopold of Belgium, or Cortez and Colombus, but we will hear his name for as long as it makes European non Jews feel bad for European Jews, I guess, since who cares about non white victims, right?), so at some point “support for Israel/European Jews” is somehow just standard and even moral in their very ignorant understanding of the world.


Lemmy is enough for me! Nowhere is perfect but there’s a good balance here, and there are more uhh politically prosocial folks here compared to Reddit so I can’t complain too much. 👍
I haven’t even checked the other fediverse offers, but I assume they’re also better (at least “vibe” wise) than the more popular and problematic alternatives.


Fair, but maybe what I said still stands. I rarely run into any actual “tankie”/auth left content (usually just complaints about them!), maybe I’d have to see where you’ve been to understand your possibly valid complaints, I’d have to see it personally.


I watched The Sixth Sense with my family when I was 6 or 7 (hehe) late at night and the lights went out shortly after so I just had to rawdawg the rest of the night, no Cartoon Network, no Nickelodeon, just me and my thoughts. I don’t think I have been that spooked since, lol.


Not the hyper-auth-left! 🙄
Unironically, if you have a Reddit account and you just wanna have a lil’ laugh without being too critical of the genocidal settler colony turned global hegemon called the USA, you can find like-minded people there. They kinda banned all the “troublemakers”, so don’t be surprised to find them here!


You really know nothing, Jon Snow, and you stand by nothing either else you would’ve replied with what you think is right in this scenario. And you don’t wanna think either. Why must you pester me, when you could just block me? If you wanna have a chat, just DM me.


I’m not trying to convince you, I’m explaining things to you, lol. And, much like at least a quarter of the world, I’m not pretending, you just don’t have the capacity to understand belief in God… God willing that’ll change, though.


If I take a hit on Netanyahu or a random mass murdering maniac, what would the problem be? Do you think they’d be convinced to stop with pretty words? Do you think having the capacity to empower the victims to fight back against their oppressors (which is not the premise of the post even) wouldn’t just create more unnecessary deaths? Or do you think passively accepting the status quo when you actually have the power to make things better is somehow the righteous option? 🤔
Think for two seconds, remembering that God is the Wise, and tell me in earnest that passivity in a world of horrors is what God would want, especially if you were given supernatural powers!


I agree with everything in your first paragraph up until the last sentence! But I don’t wanna start a long argument (which happens to me often… I’m starting to think I’m the reason 🙃) and hijack the thread, if that’s okay. I’ll definitely read the lit hub article though, and thanks for the comprehensive reply. 👍


Certainly. Not because of grief though, revenge is not a good reason, but because many issues worldwide would be fixed with targeted assassinations and it would avoid much bloodshed (since the other option is war, civil or otherwise). Also, imagine the fear the peers of those targeted would feel, they’d think it’s God’s doing or something, and that might stop them from pursuing their antihuman activities.
Ps: idk about killing those who did, how could I be sure that whoever is being problematic (idk, some MAGA dude with the book just murdering innocents because they’re brown or Muslim or trans) would be the one I’d kill? A world with many Death Notes makes it all very confusing. But if I could 100% know this dude is the one just murdering innocents, I’d target him as well, ofc. If I can stop a crazy serial killer with the stroke of a pen, why wouldn’t I do it?!
I just don’t. 🥲
But just like you, after trying out different positions and spending 10-15 mins trying unsuccessfully to fall asleep, I just start living. What choice do I have? I even go to the gym mostly to help with my digestive issues and insomnia but even then, more often than not, the latter remains a problem. I know eventually I will crash and get some sleep whether my brain wants it or not so 🤷♂️. Not ideal but hey, at least I’m really squeezing the juice out of life!
