If you're brave there is, just have to time your jump right
It's indicative of the seepage of American culture across the West that non Americans think free speech is some huge deal everywhere. Either she can believe in free speech or she can use the incredibly strict libel law to her benefit, not both
Oh yeah I definitely agree it's still repression. Honestly didn't know if there had been updates as I've not been able to keep up with the news as much
I'm not aware of anything like this but I could be falling behind the news. Ofer Cassif narrowly avoided expulsion in February
Most roads are asphalt, not concrete. You are correct about the mixes with concrete, but asphalt is much simpler and just requires compaction if you're patching
Stolen from Trillbillies, "the memories make the man, and honestly the man sucks. Let's convince him he was a maoist in his youth firebombing buildings"
To build on that, I think it's because "we" actively challenged and continued to grow our understanding to better fit the values held as a liberal. To us, the path out of liberalism is clear if you're willing to really hold true to values like freedom for all and a sensible form of governance.
The contractions are everywhere, and instead of doing anything to show they do sincerely believe what they say, they make excuses or expend no effort to try and make their beliefs a reality. They'd rather blame everyone to their left and right after doing their one act to effect change, voting, than challenge themselves and their institutions.
Ultimately I think having someone who pretends to care about the same things as you be such obstinate shitheads is much more bothersome than someone who doesn't. Stolen valor or something
Came here to post this, so I'll do this one instead
But the white liberals are foxes, who also show their teeth to the Negro but pretend that they are smiling. The white liberals are more dangerous than the conservatives; they lure the Negro, and as the Negro runs from the growling wolf, he flees into the open jaws of the "smiling" fox.
I kept looking at that trying to figure out what it was. When my creole uncle used to make these boils the stuff was covered in seasoning after being dumped out. Not even a speck of pepper on this is incredibly sad
I don't want people to stop protesting, but I also don't necessarily want comrades arrested for this.
If it felt like there was a snowball's chance, then I'm all for putting yourself on the line to extract concessions. Currently it feels like almost the entire US political machine is riding on the "kill a ton of people trolley" and barely registering what all the bumps are. They couldn't care less and will not change based on what we do so catching a charge for this doesn't seem worth the non-existent squeeze.
I understand Palestinians feel supported by protest actions and reiterate my support for those, I'm only pointing out where it might be right to draw the line.
Very open to changing my mind on this though, I want to believe we can actually have an impact and not just show solidarity
