Teenage drug use is very dangerous, but fixable with a lot of work and TLC. Even the most sober teenage brain on SM however, breaks them on a deeper psychological level that is almost impossible to reverse unless social society as a whole moves away from SM.

A kalashnikov would be more accurate

Will there be Grammaton Clerics?

Crazy how much people at large have moved past the whole religious zealotry thing, but the people in charge are still having their holy wars and crusades, fulfilling their biblical prophecies and “divine right.” I thought for those in charge this whole religion thing was just a mechanism for power, what’s crazy to me is it actually looks like they believe that shit.

By definition that makes them all rightwing authoritarians aka fascists, which checks out.

::Watches republicans throw the country into turmoil over 30 years with wars, economic collapses, and civil unrest through fascism::

“Goddamn leftists!”

Wait what?

They’re always playing psychological warfare with the population… :(

Why can’t we do psychological warfare on them? I thought they were so much dumber than us.

Did peaceful protest and peaceful organizing stop fascism last time in your country? And you say I live in a fantasy, while spitting on the millions who died to prevent a fascist (from your country no less) by saying that “peaceful protest/organizing” is somehow less fantastical solution to that problem. Have you no shame, or humility for history, let alone your own country?

Did anyone protest when Philadelphia police dropped bombs on their own city in 1985 to kill black people? Didn’t think so.

Everyone seems to forget offshore tax havens, or as I like to call it, ‘The Well of Souls’. (£36 TRILLION as of 2016)

Whatever it takes, and peaceful solutions have proven ineffective for decades.

Change needs to be cultural. So long as we live in our current cultural distinctions of “mine and thine” instead of some sort of collaborative being then this will keep on happening.

history doesn’t repeat itself

True, but history sure does rhyme.

“But what about meeeeeeee” - Americans

The prestige, if you will.

It’s interesting you mention why Republicans are so unwilling to consolidate votes, yet the only time in history where they did consolidate votes was to prevent Hunter S Thompson from becoming sheriff of Aspen.

I don’t live there, and Americans should clean up their own mess for a change. Aren’t there like 11 guns per American? Remind me the reason why Americans allowed kids to be smashed to pieces by AR-15’s in their schools?

Citizens too. If you’re an American, you’re not safe. These people are actively threatening your lives, what are you gonna do about it? Voting won’t help you. Holding up a sign or marching on a Saturday won’t stop Nazi 2.0. Remember what it took to stop them last time and get it over with already!
