He let’s me freely hang out at his nice place full of amenities so I can’t badmouth him

Lmfao, no, you can, you just like the taste of boot, and the benefits he gives you (that he only has because he exploits people like you) too much to.

Also, those last two points in the meme, as well as this being your only post on a new account strongly suggest that this is a troll, or at the very least, a really sad LARP, rather than observations made by someone who has ever spent any time at all with any actual rich people.

being patient like that definitely a skill that is not always easy to get right, and certainly takes practice.

What it mostly takes is mountains of privilege.

Not to mention that tone policing and demanding faux civility (but only from one side, the other gets to openly support oppressive constructs and still be seen as “well meaning” while those defending their humanity and fighting for survival get framed as the problem) are tools that serve to further oppress already marginalise voices, not uplift them.

Do better.

He’s propaganda for American exceptionalism sure, but also embodies it in an old school New Deal way. The character has been consistently anti-facist over the years.

Pretending that America isn’t only already fascist, but inspired the fascists they are supposedly against is American exceptionalism, and you’re eating it right up.

stickers that I don’t want to waste

Permanently sticking it somewhere? That is a tattoo-level commitment, I ain’t doing that.

I have found my people and feel validated 😂

He also wouldn’t have made it to this point alive were he Black, nor would he have the same kind of support had he previously spoken out about Black liberation or the Land Back movement for example, rather than how “wokeism” is the cause of racism.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - him shooting a CEO was good and inspiring, putting anyone up on a pedestal, starting a cult of personality, and ignoring some or all of the different systems of oppression at play, is definitely not.

You’re still allowed to have a billion

Why? Why do you feel the need to hold on to this “aspiration”?

You will never become a billionaire, stop defending your exploiters.

demotivating

that’s the motherfucking point, bootlicker.

Never forget - war is a racket

Well, I suppose bending over for a couple of dictators to fuck you (but more importantly, your people, and then who ever those two decide to invade next) is a kind of posture… 🙄

All I can say to this bizarre reply is that the whitewashed version of history (never mind current events, since some of those conflicts are still ongoing, violently, today) you were taught at school, or hear about in the msm isn’t the reality, and that none of those conflicts were fucking peaceful, or came to a conclusion because those in power just decided to give it up.

Pick up a fucking book (or watch a video, or listen to a podcast, however you take information in, go and do that, but only if you can cope with challenging your bias, otherwise it becomes a completely pointless exercise)

E: Like, honestly, do you seriously believe there is any point in talking to Putin? Do you think an open and proud totalitarian known for throwing his opponents out of windows is a trustworthy person who will have good faith and stay true to his word? Do you fucking hear yourself???

Lmfao, where did I even imply that? Talk about projecting… 😂😂😂

I’m not sure who “you people” are, but at no point did I claim to know what’s best, but I sure as fuck know, from knowing history and paying attention, that tyranny doesn’t go away by asking nicely. Never has, never will.

So a better question would be wtf is with you claiming you know anything at all about global conflict or fascism? Its like you’re larping as a wilfully ignorant and overly confident centrist who is happy to lay others lives on the line and let war rage on as long as we aren’t mean to a dictator. 🙄

The idea that it is possible to “diplomacy” your way out of conflict with a dictator is so absurd I want to laugh my ass off, but unfortunately it isn’t funny at all.

Putin will happily send every last Russian in to the meat grinder before he accept defeat, and now that he has his American buddy back in place, now with added musk funds, it is seriously delusional to think the situation is going to do anything other than escalate.

Zelenskyy is being beyond naive at best (I honestly don’t believe he believes in what he’s saying).

I love banana bread, but hate fresh bananas, so I never buy any. I guess that’s one way to solve this problem… 😂

Every single one of them is telling on themselves.

It’s much scarier yet (but explains a lot) how quickly some people make excuses for racism.

Like, what was going through their mind?

Racism.

Came here to make a similar comment having had a similar experience.

Judging how “easy” someone might have it based solely on age is a ridiculous thing to do.

Mental illness and or abusive parents or siblings (E: or as someone else mentioned: grief) don’t suddenly stop existing when you’re on holiday, if anything, being away from your own safe space and comfort zone, and in a strange place you don’t know surrounded by people you might not even be able to speak to, never mind ask for help, and your abusers potentially feeling more free than they would at home, can make everything significantly worse.

There’s plenty of shit to criticise in the world we live in, emo kids reaaaaly shouldn’t be one of them.

Technically, might be both
