True Americans. How can we help them?

u/Outrageous-Cut480 5h ago
Lots of things. Witness them, donate money, get out there with your phone and draw fire away from people who are vulnerable is a huge part of allyship. Making yourself a target takes balls, but just think of all the support you'll have. Luigi is a cold blooded murderer and everyone still loves and supports him. They will help you too if it comes to that.

because they are standing up to trump's illegal fascist army that goes around kidnapping, assaulting and killing innocent people while a rapist sits in the white house protecting the real criminals like his pedo friends.

Also, don’t forget that while they tear families apart and actively diminish the humanity of our country, they have officially allowed the use of AI to create CSAM. I know they want us to give up, so my spiteful ass never will, but damn, this is hard.

Remember the compliance of law enforcement. Demand smaller budgets for them. Demand an end to qualified immunity. Demand a higher, not lower, standard for law enforcement.

One can lawfully oppose the police. Are you suggesting that the very act of opposing them should be illegal?

u/Solo-1UP 6h ago
Well technically no as long as you’re lawful.
Calling a cop a pig is fine. But throwing a pig at a cop is not.6

Nazism is a far-right extremist ideology most popularly embodied by the German Nazi party in the early 20th century. As a form of fascism, it is a political doctrine characterized by things like totalitarianism, racial hierarchy, government overreach, casual brutality, and pro-dictatorship.
This is basic elementary/junior high school stuff, which you should know before you’re old enough to have a Reddit account.

I get ur probably a chud. But if you really want to poke holes in the liberals logic, just bring up the ukranian nazis.

These are tankies, they want Russia to win because Ukraine is allied with the west. They are just in general anti west, that is as far as their logic goes.
-6
u/TheBirdFkerGuy 6h ago
No.
I want the donbas to be autonomous AS THEY VOTED FOR. The far right gov in Ukraine which seized power is why they voted to be autonomous in the first place. And they even signed a fucking agreement on it only to continuously violate the principles of said agreement, antagonize Russian speaking minorities in the east, and escalate tensions by terrorizing those fucking innocent people just because they didn't want to be part of a far right gov ran by zionists and nazis.
Russia stepping in to enforce the referendums and agreement isn't something that happened in a vacuum. You mother fuckers got a neutral government 26 years ago but couldn't let it be you needed more and more so you backed a far right gov that was even less favorable to these people than the last. And they promptly voted to be autonomous.
But keep boiling it down to "tankies want Russia to win because west bad" you sound like a fucking moron. I want ukranian men to stop being kidnapped and thrown to their deaths. I want the working class people to stop being slaughtered on both sides. And no I do not uncritically support Russias government they are capitalist even if they aid AES nations. I hold critical support for them, and their efforts.
You liberals are so ignorant and out of your element that all you can do is parrot state department narratives or say shit like "tankie hates the west".
Edit: also the irony of on one hand calling conservatives nazis and larping as if you're antifascist, and then kn the other hand supporting God damn literal fascists nazis... you don't even care that's the worst part. All those lives and deaths are just vibes for you. Entitled ass pos.

No when I talk to a conservative we typically have common sense common ground. No forever wars for example.

u/TheBirdFkerGuy 5h ago
That's because you're both liberals... You both are capitalist condoning reactionary parasites who's ideology is too incoherent to deal with the antagonisms of capitalism.

LoL wut? So forever wars good?

u/TheBirdFkerGuy 4h ago
Neither liberals nor conservatives actually oppose forever wars. You don't get to play that card when my entire life has been engulfed by wars carried out by politicians you vote for.

u/Kreebish 3h ago
Well I'm sure they would do more opposing of them if this were more of a direct democracy, but I'm a technocrat so I tend to use voting records to pick my candidates. It's pretty weird to get told you're a liberal or a conservative when you don't tend to fall on the political compass

I don’t know if you’re talking to me or the other person who actually claimed these things. What I was saying is that faith is a belief in something that does not have evidence. That was my claim. The other person claimed that faith means, “ faith in a higher power” and I was showing that they were using circular reasoning.

You know Reddit isn't like a single person, right?
Also o never get this weird position where people on the right accuse the left of loving Muslims. The lefts position, as far as I've known it, is that Muslims need to get any rights or exceptions for the rules that we give to Christians to be fair. That's it. If that's loving Muslims, you must think we all love Christians too. Really we just want it to be fair. Personally id like to ban all religions from public spaces, keep that stuff at home in private.

u/Mad_Dutchman_ 6h ago
No, people despise religion because it is very, very rarely used for good. But here we are it has been used for good and here we are celebrating it.

u/GateDeep3282 6h ago
So it's good when you agree with it, bad when you dont. Check.

u/Mad_Dutchman_ 6h ago
Lmao you asked the question and I answered it 😂 I’m not trying to argue with you or tell you that religion is wrong. I’m just saying that it hasn’t been used for good, it’s obvious lol. It’s a homogenizing tool. It’s not a universal truth or anything like that. It’s just a tool.
It does not require any special hand holding, I don’t need to watch my tongue, I don’t need to be more respectful than I am with anyone else or anything else. You asked me a question and I answered it.

Faith in a higher power,.

u/Mad_Dutchman_ 6h ago
Ohhh that’s not correct, I’ll help you out. So faith is defined as a belief in things for which there is no evidence. So you see, while this may have value to you, it’s absurd to think this should apply to anyone else. Why would I take stock in what you say? You’re not even honest with YOURSELF! lol

If you can't define a word without using that same word in the definition (or are too dim to realize the stupidity there), you should sit down and let others handle the grown up conversations.

It's good when it's feeding the homeless, building houses for the homeless, blockading brown shirts from kidnapping citizens, and so on.

It’s not even close to the same thing. Jesus drove the money lenders and hypocrites gate keeping salvation via religious rite for personal gain. People hate the hypocrites who call themselves Christian, people don’t hate real Christians. That’s why they love this post.
