@jpaskaruk@aral@Radical_EgoCom@simoto@Daojoan Yes, but i think an international of socialist libertarian revolutions would be the only way to save our species (and many others) from decimation or extinction by the ruling classes and the rich and the military and police élites, be it for the climate problem and-or the wars it's already contributing a lot to spread in the world, just because our masters don't want to renounce their privileges. The greatest evil, for me, is any concentration of power and money and access to material resources.
> Umm, you do realise that when fascists come into power they don’t respect existing norms and will do whatever the fuck they want anyway, right? > Restricting hate speech and calls for violence is not an assault on freedom; it’s a defense of its boundaries. Your freedom to speech ends where it encroaches my freedom to live. A tolerant system cannot tolerate intolerance.
I do realise what you wrote in the 1st paragraph, and i totally agree with the second; i'm just sure voting democrats now would only and *perhaps* delay an insurrectional attempt by the "alt-right". And i'm not totally against violence, https://invidious.lunar.icu/watch?v=jf9d3cwVWBY 🙂
I'm not the cynic here, please read again this branch of the thread; and i just think the same of any "representative democratic system". It's not cynism, it's 47 years of personal experience, and some historical knowledge.
@aral@Radical_EgoCom@jpaskaruk@simoto@Daojoan If i was in the u.s. and biden or another democrat promised they would stop financing and sending weapons to israel and to establish a new, real welfare, and to turn off the ghg polluting industries and to build the sustainable alternatives... i still wouldn't vote, because they already made big promises in electoral campaigns so often, and with less radical programs, and, after the electoral campaign, didn't do what they promised, and did the opposite (except maybe for some internal welfare, but i'm not informed enough on that). Biden promised in his electoral campaign he would have stopped giving fossils extraction concessions on federal territories, and then when he got elected, did as much as trump (1/2)
@aral@Radical_EgoCom@jpaskaruk@simoto@Daojoan Also, he removed the clause by which the u.s. could, before, use nuclear bombs only in response to direct attacks to the u.s. territory. I can't trust this shit, and i think no one should. (2/2)
Mi piacciono molto i cachi - I like persimmons a lot.Boost = wish others readStar = i agree-like (if i don't completely, i usually comment)I don't boost posts with undescribed media attachments, because https://mastodon.help/#DescribingMediaI often hate it when i'm right and i often love it when i'm wrong. I believe in the revolutionary, progressive power of truth, but i think it's necessary and not sufficient. I'm naked.Other accounts: @geranio, @jones
