We have been far past that point for a long while but nobody cares.
Peaceful weekend protests might make people feel like they’re doing something but are not successful. You have to disrupt the economy for people to notice general strikes massive protests.
Our problem is apathy. It is much more of us than them.
If we succeed and still have democracy the laws can be reverted, but as I mentioned the apathy is the biggest problem and the reason how we got where we are.
That is such a funny fucking joke you made there old buddy old pal. “We got out of them” no we didn’t you fool do you see where we are now?? This has been a build up of events that have happened before. Ignoring that is just plain ignorant and dangerous to the situation at hand, we got here because we never truly “got out of them”.
By all means fight the good fight and keep your friends, families, and neighbors safe. However, we need to stop placating people with this rhetoric.
I have given up on the idea of retirement or security/safety in my lifetime a loooong time back.
We live in the worst possible type of dystopia, a world where “evil” won long ago, and has had ample time and opportunity to sink its claws into every aspect of our lives, forever.
And the worst part is that most people won’t even believe it. In fact, almost a majority seem to relish it somehow. Like they want the world to be as terrible as it can possibly be, even for themselves.
And their kids. I couldn’t imagine setting them up for life like this. Then again perhaps they dont really care about them beyond having the “reproduce” achievement unlocked.
My personal take is that the super-elite know there’s no saving our biosphere in our lifetimes so they’re just robbing what they can while they still can.
If your mental health is in that kind of state, please get rid of the gun. The world is better with you here, and we need each other the fight that’s coming.
And if we need guns later, I’m a hobbyist that’s been collecting them for years and I’ve got a TON of them.
Guess I’ll give up on everything, not have any kids and shoot myself at age 60,… unironically. I have the gun already.
This is not end of the world, history is full of bad moments and we got out of them.
We need people to join protests to help change things, not kill themselves. If we accept that we have no power, we will have no power.

Are we beyond the point of protests yet? Our politicians are actively taking affirmative steps to avoid listening to them.

Oh I will, all the way up to age 60. I’m not going to wait quietly for old age. I have lots of time to flick off conservatives.
But do I actually have any hope at all?
nope!

You could do so much more good with that gun.
That’s most millenial Americans’ retirement plans.
I hope they consider overdosing on opiates insteady. Put to sleep, probably the only way I’ll know true peace

I can’t imagine any 100lb bag of rice being worse off because one grain is missing.
Grains of rice don’t live, don’t love, don’t build relationships and societies with each other. People do.
Take your ice cream koan elsewhere.
It’s your life, but you cant predict the future. Maybe there is a chance things work out and you get to a better place in life?
You’re not the only one, though.
