Not in a union yet? Not a problem. Become a Wobbly and join the only anticapitalist union out there.
Thanks man. I appreciate this. Sorry you went through that. I think the thing I’m mostly conflicted about the feeling of “mourning.” I don’t want this dude back in my life but it does suck that I don’t have a best friend any more. I’m already introverted as it is, so making friends has always been tricky. Now in my late age, I think I’m just going to be going the rest of my life without that sort of relationship ever again.
In Spanish they are “Royal Turkey.”
Felt like oversharing, might delete later 🤪
It’s not entirely my story to tell so I’ll keep it vague.
It turned out a guy I considered my family groomed someone he met through me. His victim recently confided in me what he did to her years ago. I believed her so I confronted aforementioned “best friend” who spent more energy trying to gain sympathy over how he was “in a dark place” and that’s why he did what he did than acknowledging that he did something absolutely despicable. I kicked him out of my place and told him he’s dead to me. I’m still in the fallout of the whole situation.
Have you ever heard of Smedley Butler?
Whatever happened to that “libertarian” way of thinking? Used to be that they wouldn’t listen to no goddamn politician now every one of those gadsden flag touting fucks are on their knees awaiting their favorite politician to tell them to say “ah”.
Time to smash the looms.
I’d love to hear the Unabomber’s takes on “taking a piss/shit.”
It appears Quinny has indeed, lost it.
You know who likes to split hairs between liking children, prepubescent teens, and teenagers?
Why would it create a black hole?
I really don’t think we can say the pendulum isn’t being shifted in massive strokes overnight when this administration is literally destroying our way of life in massive strokes every hour. The time for the “lesser evil” was ages ago. The time for direct action is now.
I’m always glad to stumble upon another NJ person on Lemmy! My anarchism flies out of the window when it comes to loving Jersey. It’s my home, despite people arguing I’m not from here due to the color of my skin. In my lifetime, sea level rising will reshape what this great state looks like. Homelessness in Atlantic City is bad now, it’s going to be a thousand times worse when the area is under water. This is why I don’t think we can settle for small changes. We need drastic actions, yesterday.
These living conditions were won with blood, sweat, and tears. They have been stripped away from us through deception, isolation, and manipulation. We can still make our lives better, it is going to require a lot of work and discomfort.
Truthfully, do you think voting for the less evil is a better course of action than directly addressing an issue? If the Rs say “deport all non-whites” and the Ds say “deport non-whites with records”, do you really think we should vote for the lesser evil instead of stopping the racist deportations?
The party is conservative, their constituents are being lied to. They just need to realize that electoral politics will not save us. Hopefully they do this before it’s too late.
Harris assured Trump voters that nothing would fundamentally change. The Democratic party is sitting on their thumbs while the fascists are taking over. Electoral politics don’t save us from fascism.
So they will with due process. Lol. Lmao.
More gay than you! HA!
