Violence should never be employed
against someone who is not harming you or infringing on your rights
against a party genuinely willing to negotiate
when your use of violence will seem excessive to onlookers such that they will turn against you
I think you may be the only commenter who actually read the post.
Yeah... we really need to quit making proprietary formats into industry standards.
I'm not sure that's fair. The "death toll of communism" has more to do with authoritarianism and political maneuvering than economic policy. Also, the people quickest to point out this fact don't seem to be using the same measuring stick to tally up the equivalent "death toll of capitalism."
It's just propaganda that doesn't hold up to serious scrutiny. All governments - including 'centrist' ones - have an awful lot of blood on their hands. Enough blood that I wouldn't say there's a significant difference due to economic policy alone.
"There is currently an ongoing genocide against trans people in the United States. I am begging you to take this seriously, even if you're going to joke about it. Especially if you're going to joke about it, because humor is powerful and words have consequences."
I agree... which is why I think this tweet is actually spot on. Sometimes it's actually more important to say the n-word, hard r and all, because to soften it would be to soften the danger.
When we talk about the Holocaust, we don't say Hitler "unalived people" or "put them to sleep." We show them the pile of shoes. We describe the evil in detail, because that's going to galvanize people.
That's not the same thing as disrespecting trans people. It's recognizing the danger and not coddling the people who are facing that danger. Yes, words hurt, but the kind of stuff Trump has in store for people like us will hurt a whole lot more than if you called me by my birth name. It doesn't help anyone to sugarcoat it.
The only way to be safe is to use Temple OS. It's the only os designed by god.
Star Wars is fantasy set in space. Star Trek is science fiction.
Star Wars is, in my opinion, more fun to watch. But I enjoy thinking about the concepts presented in Star Trek more.
There is always the "people's impeachment." I hear it has been popular in France.

If using neopronouns didn't get a reaction out of people, they wouldn't do it.
Respecting all pronouns is the best way to deal with trolls.
No one wants to be a flasher in a nudist colony.
Some of us are. Luigi did.
You might not think I'm pretty, but I can pay attention to you, if you want. I don't mind.
... I'm like 90% gay tho
