The fact that every american in a nation with more guns than people seems totally willing to let this fascist keep destroying the balance of power their whole country was founded on is honesty pathetic, and I lose respect for them every day it goes on. What the fuck was the right to bear arms in that dusty old paper even for, if not this?
Oh it definitely doesn’t matter, I’ve been ready to block them since the second post I saw from that instance. It’s just morbid curiosity stringing me along at this point lmao
I’ve been completely unable to tell if they’re right wing or just a bunch of edgy 14 year olds, and I’ve been kinda reluctant to block them till I figure out which
Okay rip I think the post I was using as a status check for hexbear was just deleted lmao, cuz yea now that I check others it’s all there
Thanks lmao
Oh awesome, so hexbear’s back fr then? Does that mean old hexbear posts will federate back onto other instances, or are those still gone?
Either way, glad to see you dudes back and thanks for the update!
I’m glad hexbear’s back, but I’m way out of the loop on this one. Re-federation? Like they were defederated? The most recent thing I know was them losing the domain, and I’ve honestly just been waiting for them to come back with a new one.
Can someone please summarize whatever went down for those of us who missed it?
I just don’t have any faith in the kind of good state laws could do if the state is already at rock bottom. Seems like it’d require federal intervention (that would be against the interests of all the rich states) imo, tho I can’t pretend to know where Americans like to draw the line for when federal aid is okay lol.
Let’s say everybody in a state is equally culpable for electing shit leaders for the sake of the hypothetical: this would be fine at first, but what happens if Florida gets their shit together in 30 years and makes a unified push for a good leader and real quality of life improvements for the people? (please suspend your disbelief lmao). All their votes together would mean nothing because of the shit QoL 30 years of republicans would get them, and they’d be powerless to enact any positive change unless the states doing the best under the new system decided to allow it. That’s what I mean by self fulfilling prophecy; poor states can only get poorer and rich ones get richer.
I feel like that would become a self fulfilling prophecy very quickly, and result in America constantly punching down on the poorest states (instead of just the poorest people, like they do now)
THANK YOU SO MUCH
A part of me CANNOT stop seeing the top left eagle as a duck looking to the right of the image, please tell me someone else sees this too
I’m not american and my culture has no history of stockpiling weapons to fantasize about using them when the government takes our rights, so don’t try to paint me as a hypocrite for calling this out as an outside observer.
Also, please show me where I even implied people should shoot at local cops or turn protests violent? If there was any advocation of violence in my comment (for legal purposes this is an if) it had one clear target, and wasn’t specifically addressed to leftists. I don’t blame you for wanting reasons to write off what I said, cuz I can’t imagine being american right now - not a figure of speech, I literally cannot and I feel for you dudes - but please don’t resort to strawman and false equivalency fallacies to do it.
