If this is true, why don’t they ever for even a moment shut the fuck up?
Hi I’m a conservative, now in hour three of a rant about how I’m not allowed to speak my mind.
As long as we talk the whole time about not being allowed to speak without ever once specifying what it is we’d like to say: yes.
Good! I love getting $1.7m worth of royalties on my unread book that went bestseller because of a 250,000 unit bulk purchase using now freshly laundered RNC money.
They should speak up! What do you suppose they want to say?
I think if someone says something, I am permitted to understand them to be the sort of person who says that thing, and if someone can’t handle that, I submit that it is they who don’t believe in political discourse.
Lol “evidence,” amazing.

Classical liberals who want to make every interaction some sort of abstracted shadow on a cave wall are just precious.
“When you said that racist thing I was *about* to start considering you racist, but unfortunately my opinion on that was overturned on appeal when it was discovered—given precedent in the conversation THE PEOPLE VERSUS FACEBOOK SHITHEAD—that I collected the evidence improperly.”
We actually believe all these “conservatives are afraid to speak their minds” pieces.

It’s just that we’re *constantly* subjected to a stream of absolutely horrific things they believe already. So we can only imagine how horrible the things even *they* self-censor must be.

One point that’s often missed in all this “we’re afraid to say what we think” handwringing from these purveyors of immoral outrage:

They’re cowards.

They’re *self-professed* cowards, who lack even the courage to blame themselves for their own cowardice.
“I’m afraid to say what I think.”

Everyone Else: Who gives a *shit*? What, d’ya think the world was just YEARNING to hear you make the same five points Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson made yesterday? You’re wearing mirror-shades and a hat behind a truck, BRYCE. WE KNOW WHAT YOU THI
You know should be afraid to say what they think? BLM activists.

When they say what they think, militarized cops will threaten them, arrest them, brutalize them, & kill them.

They say it anyway. Because that's what people do when they believe something and they aren't cowards.

What people who didn’t intend to offend or harm say when they’re informed they have nevertheless caused offense or harm: “I’m so sorry.”

What people who intended offense and harm all along say: “so now you’re telling me I’m not allowed to do that anymore?”

Which is obvious.
Likewise if police didn’t intend murder we’d see some slight attempt or even pretense at an attempt to recognize that what happened was tragic or at least undesirable.

Instead they frame each murder entirely around their license to continue.

They kill who they want to.
Police are fully revealed now as an institution that believes that racist brutality and murder are not only necessary but good; not only good, but *very* good.

I will go further. They deliberately killed people to score political points. The deaths were the crucial part of the plan.
Honestly I believe that anyone who is Republican should be shunned from society wherever they go, and I hope to create a world in which this happens.
Hope this isn’t seen as biased.

LITTLE WOMEN (2019) is, in my opinion, good. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The screenplay is a marvel. It jumps across time but never loses you for a moment. Gerwig channeling the best of Merchant Ivory and of Malick. I’m not missing a single movie she makes.
I may be underrating it.

I love people who treat a clear determination to solve an obvious problem as childish "magical thinking," but believe their persistence belief that the solution is still to be found in same incrementalist reform strategy that has led us exactly here is not "magical thinking."
I know which group sounds like children clapping because they believe in fairies, and it's not the ones who want to do the hard work of totally rethinking how we do society, rather than continue trying to treat entrenched violent white supremacy as a training issue.
I'm aware it's difficult. That's EXACTLY what makes it the grown-up decision.

I don't have the exact plan how, so the point is invalid? Oh yeah, b/c 1st we figured out every single detail of how to go to the moon, THEN we decided to go, right? That's the order of things, right?

The police burned down the Apple store.

They insist on waging war in their jurisdictions against the citizens they are meant to protect, so now they have war zones in their jurisdictions.

No police, no war zone.

No war zone, no war.

The police burned down the Apple store.
Society is composed of people. It is a shared human value.

We permit corporations and police to the extent — and only to the extent — they benefit people in society. We mustn't permit them to think they exist to benefit themselves.

If they forget, they should be destroyed.
Any institution that exists to benefit itself at the expense of humans in society is a failure.

Failed institutions will always breed failure.

We can't have peace if we empower institutions to wage war against our own brothers and sisters.

May we end all failed institutions.
