Only authoritarian governments crush student protests

With police, an apparatus of the state.

You have to work harder to come to that conclusion than just going “hey isn’t the police employed by the government?”

I fucking love pirate medicine. Fuck the US healthcare system, what good is having the “best healthcare in the world” if you can’t even afford mediocre healthcare?

Another thing of note. If you see car hoods up, take out your camera and film. The pigs will pop their hood to block their dashcams.

Of course that kid grew up to be a cop

The queers:

No matter how much I hate corporate pride, I cannot find a fiber of my being that hates this

My friend is a teacher. He has heard kids say your body my choice.

Straight? I was straight once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with femboys. And femboys make me not straight.

Hopefully the concentration camp helps me with my ADHD if he kicks me off adderall /s

I skimmed the article and noticed that women are more likely to identify as LGBTQ+, and I wonder if that’s related to the fact that more and more men are becoming conservative, and women are becoming more liberal.

I know I wouldn’t have thought about queerness and my identity if I was conservative, I probably would have thought something silly like “Oh, it’s perfectly normal to be romantically attracted to some men, you eventually grow out of it” instead of asking myself “Am I bi?”

I probably would have also associated my discomfort with my own masculinity with something weird, or over-compensated to account for it.

I think this is a good example of how vigilantes often work to support the state's goals when it can't legally/easily complete their goals.

For every fascistic government still bound by laws, there will be fascists willing to ignore them to support it. See this. See the KKK carrying out lynchings on people who are barely escaping the grasp of the state. See the settlers illegally settling on Palestinian land to carry out the state's goals of ethnic cleansing.

That’s absolutely disgusting. The state should not kidnap children when their housing conditions cannot be met by a minimum wage.

Fuck nationalization of social media. Honestly, this is one of the worst ideas I’ve heard.

The idea that giving the government a monopoly on the biggest data hoarders is somehow better than having the capitalists own it is mind-boggling.

The government doesn’t need a warrant to search through its own data.

The last thing we need is to give the state more power over our lives, more insight into our lives, and more control over the narratives we learn.

Every time humans have centralized more power into fewer and fewer hands, nothing good comes from it. We need more decentralized forms of media, not more centralized forms.

I loved shopping at 2 am. It was basically me, nighttime truckers, and people who worked weird shifts stopping by after work. When I shop in the day the aisles are congested and shelves occasionally need a restock, and checkout lines out take forever (looking at you costco)

This person would 1000% call MLK a left wing fascist, fuck this guy

I want to meet this person, someone with such strong opinions on food is either the most amusing person to talk to, or an insufferable zealot and I really want to know which this person is.

When I read the first bit of the headline I was like “Sure, I can see Churchill being a big villain, after all be is a piece of shit. Worse than hitler? That’ll need quite a bit of justification since I don’t think there is any way to justify that position. Then I read the second half and realized they are using “historian” to give that neo-nazi a bit of credibility while they do a bit of holocaust denial.

This officer deserves to be imprisoned.
