it doesn't have to be either/or and you don't have to pretend it has no effect (when we're literally discussing the effects as they are occurring!) in order to support organizing. There's no "taking" of energy, like, what? How can an event which is presently inspiring thousands to discuss it and the evils of American healthcare "taking energy"? It is literally galvanizing discussion. And that isn't "great man theory," it's literally just having open eyes and ears witnessing how people are reacting.

and nobody has "given up their life" yet, the guy got away. So far.

There's like 27 different layers of automated moderation automatic banning bullshit ostensibly to stop bots AND YET IT'S STILL FULL OF BOTS

we coulda done that but NOW IT'S BEING SOLD

they're those big fuckin' things that block the road for like, what feels like forever, and sometimes they like to troll by stopping and going back and forth for a bit. idk whose genius fuckin idea THOSE were

pooping is so fucked up honestly, everybody just walking around with a tube full of shit inside em

In other words: a lot of words to ultimately say nothing. Much like this comment.

still not beating the liberalism allegations

Rude to lock a megathread when i'm getting upvotes
