Well, no, that's now how it is. We could just stop bombing kids. I've gone my whole life without directly bombing anyone, and it's been pretty easy to do. In fact, it seems to me that it's a lot of work to bomb kids. Same with torturing people, same with supporting rapists.

The fact that you think it's hard to not bomb kids tells me a lot about your lack of understanding about how the world works.

It’s not that I advocate for it, it’s just how things are.

But you are advocating for that. You keep fighting against the people who are trying to stop it from happening.

You can work to change things one at a time or you can get crushed by it.

Or there's another option that you keep refusing to consider: The Democrats could just say "Nah, we aren't going to bomb kids", and then actually stop.

See, it's really easy to do. I'm doing it right now!

You leveling all of your anger and blame on me is nothing short of childish, be mad at the powers and systems in control, that’s what is resisting change and bombing children, I’m 100% on board with all the shit you’re saying. I’ve also mever bombed children. You’re being a hyperbolic kneejerk reactionary looking for an easy out and someone, anyone it would seem, to take all the blame. THAT IS SIMPLY NOT HOW THE WORLD WORKS. The picture is so much bigger than what you are painting it to be. Be more pragmatic. There is no quick or easy way out.

I keep saying "lets not bomb kids", but you keep defending it, and the people who do it. If you are against it, why would you support them and the bombs they drop? Your the one saying "bombing kids is just practical for now".

Have you not been defending the Democrats this whole time? Because I thought that was your point?

[–] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 0 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

No, I hate them all. I’m saying be realistic about getting to where things can be better. We are in a long suppressed socio political environment that has gulped up and internalized a lot of propaganda. We’re not getting out of this all at once or any time soon, we need to get every bit we can and not complain that there is a whale to be eaten and nobody that is willing nor able to eat the whale in one bite, especially when the only other realistic outcome is just more whales.

And yet here you are, defending them, and pushing me to compromise with them. I agree that we aren't getting out of this anytime soon, because the Democrats are keeping us here. I fight against that.

No, you fight against any chance at progress by running a disinformation campaign against the only ruling class that actually gives a shit about people.

[–] dubs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Oh? The same ruling class that bombed kids? The same ruling class that has repeatedly sold out it's voters? The same ruling class that made it clear three times that they'd rather let Trump be in charge than someone who the people want? The same ruling class that always asks us to compromise to the right, but never compromises to the left? Yeah, it suuuuuuuuure sounds like they give a shit about all those kids that they bombed. Or all the people that they sent to torture prisons. Or all the people whose lives they destroyed to bail out their rich friends.

Of course, it's easy to call facts "disinformation" if you don't actually pay attention to what the Democrats actually do.

What do health issues have to do with the party that bombs kids, supports Trump, and openly ignores it's voting base?

It's hilarious to me that you still haven't come up with any actual points or evidence. Maybe you should try that sometime.

You’re a childish zealot and detrimental to all you claim to stand for, go fucking die, you regressive waste of space. You are nothing but an idealist reactionary, no different from the GOP, you are using the exact same tactics of bury your god damned head and yell louder about how you’re morally superior. You are actively hurting leftism and progressivism. You are nothing but a reactionary karen.

I’m going to apply some of that pragmatism I’ve been talking about and go ahead and block you and your pointless and masturbatory dogmatism. Have fun jerking yourself off, you stupid myopic fuck.

Me: "I think bombing kids is bad"

You: "I fucking hate you and I hope you die"

Tell me again, what gains the Democrats have brought? How am I burying my head in the sand by bringing facts and data, while you are openly ignoring the data provided? How are the Democrats are helping leftism, by continuously punching left, while continuously compromising to the right? I'm courious how, despite all of this, I am the zealot, but you aren't.

You've yet to provide any evidence, data, or strategy other than "Bombing kids is cool, as long as it's the Blue Team that's doing it". Please, by all means, prove me wrong.

Yes you hate America, you've made that clear. Just like you probably hate women, and any other minority that isn't middle eastern.

[–] dubs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No, I hate America because America hates women and minorities.

You're a joke of a person, intellectually dishonest and both sides-ing puppet

[–] dubs@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 days ago

The person defending rapists, genocidists and child-killers, and saying we need to compromise with them is calling me a joke of a person and intellectually dishonest. Of course, me bringing in data showing the both sides are indeed evil monsters isn't taken into consideration at all.

"I've seen what makes you cheer, your boos mean nothing to me".
