okay I have an actual question: What's First Mate: a pirate ship's steering wheel, orangered color ? I don't think I see it mentioned here...

[–] Aatube 1 points 1 week ago

psssst the descunder "First" should probably be "or FOSS" instead of "nor FOSS"

sure, see what happens, it's discourse. in the best (and naïve) scenario we can effect change by only banning many individual users who use bad-faith rhetoric

Based on your argument, one cannot justify the person in the swing state voting for Harris? And again, how were they defending Harris's genocide policies?

edit:fixed think-o lol, safe→swing

Opinion discarded.

While I agree that the sentence is imperialist apologia, I disagree with this approach. There's something to be learned from everything, especially when there's much mroe than what you're focusing on.

Then how may I explain that voting for the lesser evil is the best course of action in my state's scenario? And again, how were they justifying Harris's genocide policies?

[–] Aatube 5 points 8 months ago (3 children)

That sounds a bit too extreme if it's a one-strike

[–] Aatube 6 points 8 months ago (5 children)

How were they justifying Harris's genocide policies? Isn't defending voting for Harris defending the shitty choice?

Isn't "we lack agency" the exact argument you removed? Casting others in either black or white is unnecessarily flaming and often used by power-grabbers to divide the electorate and drum up perfervid support. Nobody's wholly supporting Harris or supporting her stance on the war here. I saw the thread before it was removed.

I'm confused. Do you now think choosing the shitty option is justifiable or not?

In my country's present institution, you have to either support evil or be filthy rich to live. Revolutions don't happen spontaneously; they build in the back corner while evil is prospering before a great ambush. As a non-white anarchist, Trump will quite possibly kill our movement if he wins. Thus, I unfortunately indulge in activities that will help us in the long run. In the dark, we help build strength. In the light, you'll help arrest the momentum.

I'm trying to upload a 75kb PNG as my avatar. However, it produces a toast on the bottom left saying {"data":{"msg":"Error in store","files":null},"state":"success"}.
