we don't have an endless supply of planet to go around, but greed is infinite

turns out the kind of people who want asshole policies are themselves... well... not burdened by conscience

oh. yeah damaging property is kinda missing the "terror" in "terrorism". I get it. Thank you :)

I do think that arresting people for voicing their support is counter-productive, unnecessarily heavy-handed and at the very least controversial from a freedom-of-speech point of view.

But I don't see how the government should not ban a group that resorts to sabotage to achieve their political goals? Any state – democratically legitimized or no – will be very twitchy about stuff that touches national security.

Am I missing some nuance here?

Charming.

There is such a thing as context. Red paint on a street is an annoyance (and may make for very visible and effective protest). Red paint on hi-tech equipment is sabotage (and makes for very unpleasant reactions by the owners of said equipment).

Mandatory Palestine

the UK is against backing "Palestine Action" which is a group that has sabotaged British military equipment. Surprisingly, the British government doesn't take kindly to that sort of thing.

how dare you bring logic to a circlejerk

the strongest countries, period.

China and Russia are colonial powers, too.

i dont know how changing flags every day helps victims of concentration camps.

Probably yes, maybe even more so. Plus, harsh winters. Yay.

what does

Think bigger.

This is what sometimes happens when you give people power without controlling for outcomes (vulgo: without oversight).

Everything else is circumstantial. It can be a religious context, but it doesnt have to be. Bad things have happened in state-run institutions, in foster homes, in prisons, in families - wherever there is a power imbalance that goes unchecked.

and they got pulverized in response

by using a lot less technologically advanced stuff that needed fewer people to sustain.

"meeting real people" has been subject to capitalism since the first enterprising individual opened a pub … a couple thousand years ago.

At Elon’s level of wealth, he can’t even trust that his family is being honest with him.

Well… his trans daughter probably is.

omg yes Trump would be sooo all over Hitler.
