Controversial General Political Discussion

[Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier]

I'm not going to comment on the Kirk situation. I do not think he needed to die and it goes without saying that simply killing people isn't the solution. I also am not a bleeding heart and don't feel bad for him as I have my own criticisms towards him from an actual rightwing perspective (he was not right wing.)

It's not the solution
But Kirk himself said people need to get shot
He just never expected himself to get shot too
It is what it is at the end of the day.

I'd be manning a taco stand in Albania by now if I were him.

For real

dude got a head start cause of that Larry David guy too lmao

Old timer should have charged with obstruction, but that's just me lol

Dude's lived most of his life I honestly see no point in putting him behind bars for simply joking around

 

[Logiko]

It almost made me forget you called me an ableist.

I didn't

If I say "what you said was racist" does that mean you're not racist yourself?
What you say typically reflects what you believe. If you see a white dude running his mouth about how black people only eat chicken and kool aid, chances are you're very likely to just label that dude a racist off the rip.

Not necessarily.

I have a lot of racist, ableist, transphobic, sexist, colonist, meritocratic, classist biases myself.

Does that mean that I'm all those things ? No. I'm fighting against everyday. But sometimes, I'm being told or I understand that something I said IS indead problematic (a lot less now than a few years ago, let's be honest). A lot's of things I said on this very forum I consider to be the result of these biases for ex.

Racism, ableism, colonialism, capitalism, patriarchy..... They are not ideologies, or the result of bad behavior they are exploitative system of domination. This means that no matter how much deconstructed you are, you can't escape the fact that you were educated in such system and as such, you have a place in them, subgegated or exploitative that will influence the way you think EVEN AFTER learning everything there is to know about about activism, historical materialism and all the struggles against those domination system.

Logiko the other day
"I hate white people"
"I understand" he replies


But if someone said they hate other group or minority he lose his shit

That the difference in understanding then impact of a structural system of domination and not understanding them. The hate I understood in that case, is not structural or systemic.

Nah the kidding around essentially turned him into a decoy 😂

He said people "need" to get shot? Lol

 

[Z-Saber]

A joke is by nature meant to be light hearted and humorous.

Well some people have an absolutely terrible sense of humor

 

[Monster Zoro's Tesla Supplier]

I didn't


Not necessarily.

You make everything harder for your self when all you need to do is say less.

So dear old Charlie is more important than the 3000 folks who died on this day, duly noted…

"I hate black people"
"I understand."

From what I heard he was

 

[NAMELESS]

It was indeed a professional hit - 200 yards sniping with winds in play and hitting the neck with such precision with one bullet fired (as far as I know)

Perhaps panic kicked in and he made slips.

It seems he dropped out from your Assassin institution before completing the full course of "how to become a clean assassin"

Nah, not a professional hit, just a hit. Most rifle bullets will be travelling in a straight trajectory at that distance. It's point and shoot. Guy that did it isn't a jedi marksman.

 

[RyoQ]

Kirk was about as extreme as your boomer uncle. Liberals are really celebrating over this which they perceive as a Nazi going down even though this guy was about as moderate as you can get and still be considered a "conservative", which I would not even call him.

 

[NAMELESS]

Don't compare yourself to him. I can in some cases call him an ally, I can't with you.

Whenever you need to touch grass, i will be there for you.

Some random Magat got shot and killed. Did anyone talk about it ? It seems like shooting Trump failed a few times so American violent direct action people are aiming for the others around like this influencer or the CEO killed by Luigi.

Had an aneurysm reading this

 

[NAMELESS]

I can accept it. But I'm not having this conversation with someone who keeps trying to label me ableist simply because I said a person with mental issues should go to an institution dedicated to helping those people with mental issues get on the right track in life.

You missed the point entirely by assuming I'm trying to argue that it's okay to murder him. I'm just arguing it's okay to not feel sympathy over his death.
Again he himself said his death was necessary for the 2nd amendment. HE said that, NOT me.

Ahhh, ok, talking about the Old Testament is Nazism. Got it?

Good. Read it again.
