If your country is doing sex trafficking and slavery (the latter at least is true) then yes, that is something you should take to the streets for. Something happening and something being done with your tax dollars are two completely different things. Don't project your lack of moral principles and/or spine on other people.

I don't even know half the horrible things the US is doing. And the EU is doing plenty of messed up stuff too. Same with Asia. So wait, every single person should be in the streets then? What country are you from? Why are you not in the streets?

Why? You have the sum total of humanity's knowledge between your fingertips and you still can't be bothered to at least educate yourself? "I don't give a shit about other people and neither should you" is not the flex you think it is.

So wait, every single person should be in the streets then?

Literally yes. By the way, plenty of people in your own country are marching and organizing against for-profit prisons (aka slavery). As I said above, don't project your own lack of principles on others.

Why are you not in the streets?

Because I'll be imprisoned for years and likely tortured. How about you?

Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules:

We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.
