Yeah but being bad and doing a good thing from time to time doesn’t make you good. Your thought experiment doesn’t provide any value because no one is saying everything the bad groups do is always and forever bad. It’s more like the severity of badness outweighs any good they are doing when it comes to the perception of them.

I’m sure Hitler gave his friends very nice and thoughtful presents. At the same time he was ordering a genocide. Are those presents then bad? Not on the surface. Is he redeemable because of that? No.

Why is withholding the WiFi password not enough? Could they somehow piggyback off a different device or something?

This is you “so what if hypothetically Putin solves world hunger, homelessness, and redistributed all wealth so everyone was on equal playing field. Oh, oh. And he disarmed all their nukes and led the disarmament of all nuclear armed nations? Oh AND He helped solved climate change? Then would think he’s a good guy?” Like those hypotheticals are bonkers and useless.

Same, I really like that one a lot.

So you should tell women what to do if YOU think it’s the right thing for them to do?

I think the reality is it should be up to the individuals to decide whatever the hell they want to do. It’s totally fine if a woman wants to take her husbands name. And equally fine for her not to. Vice versa as well, no reason the husband can’t make that decision.

Yes please! So hyped for this! Just wish I could get more Jin Sakai and Yuna. Some of my favorite characters from recent video games.

That and the rise of the unions. It really feels like times in history we only learned about in school but never experienced before.

I see my typo but I’m leaving it because I love your comment

Tbf you also just described trump and ost of the current Republican Party.

So you are implying that Jill Stein is genuine and not most likely a foreign asset. Because that’s the original point of this post, not propping up the military industrial complex.

But I also see the .ml on your instance….so it all becomes clear.

What are you being critical of? You’re definitely being disingenuous. Jill Stein is garbage, has been photographed with Putin and his staff at events, and is working with republicans.

If you wanna defend what the Green Party used to aspire to go right ahead but when they hold near 0 offices around the country, and I believe actually 0 at the federal level at some point you blaming that on dems starts to sound a whole lot like republican propaganda.

Y’all have some false equivalency between dems and trump republicans but you can’t see that most dem voters would be aligned with your views more than the right if you weren’t only trying to spoil our candidates.

I feel like many of these don’t qualify as science fiction. Space balls, much like Star Wars, is fantasy in space, not sci fi.

“This is just Dem propaganda, cooked up by the establishment to prevent valid, wholesome, totally ethical and on our side third parties like the Greens from becoming the powerhouse they could be!” - tankies and Russians operatives on this site probably

No, they are far more extreme than they were before. I literally called Cheney a war criminal. They have never been good, but it’s absolutely true that they are worse than before (republicans). You seem to think in very binary terms which helps makes sense of your simplistic world views.

Most dems are not clapping like seals from Cheney’s endorsement. Most of us want him to fuck off. But we can also look to instances like that of how far the Republican Party has fallen when a literal war criminal is like “this is too much even for me”.

colonialism never went away. Europe loves to look down their noses but a ton of countries still have colonies all over the world. The only change from past centuries is we think it’s a thing of the past. US as well fwiw.

Oh hi universalmonk or verdantbanana !

Can you imagine if Jill Stein was progressive? Yeah me neither…
