violent rhetoric on the left
violent rhetoric on the left
i have no patience for people talking about violent rhetoric on the left really because every day i read the news and every politician in this country and in most others is saying 'we gotta kill more people'. they use different words to say it. obviously you're not supposed to just say 'we gotta kill more people'. but there's all kinds of polite and okay ways to say it.
'we need to control our borders' is a phrase which here means 'we gotta kill more people, we gotta drown more refugees in boats, we gotta send more people back to warzones and governments that want them dead, we gotta make more camps and we gotta make the camps more fatal'.
'we need to be tougher on welfare fraud' is a phrase which here means 'we gotta kill more people, we gotta make disabled people do more song and dance routines to convince some indifferent bureaucrat that they deserve to eat and we gotta make sure that the bureaucrats say 'no', we gotta starve those kids more, we gotta make sure families and kids and old people are freezing in the winter'.
'we need to tackle violent crime' is a phrase which here means 'we gotta kill more people, specifically Black people, unless we said Terrorism instead of Crime, in which case it's specifically muslims, shoot them, imprison them, surveil them, disappear them, brutalize them, whatever.'
and of course none of this is Violent Speech. this is Sensible Political Discourse. these are Common-Sense Policy Goals. we gotta kill more people: that's an electable policy. you can always count on we gotta kill more people as a platform. we gotta kill more people is gonna sweep the nation baby. we gotta kill more people 2024 -- vote now on your phones. now slow down. hold your horses. did that guy just say we gotta kill more people? well that just wont do. thats why im running on a platform of we gotta kill more people for cheaper, to stop this wasteful madness. and the people just keep dying but seems like there's still some of them left so i guess we're just circling back around to our main thing which is: we gotta kill more people

A lot of being a leftist means spelling out just how grotesque and violent libs are to their faces because they can't connect the dots by themselves. There are no constellations to these people, only twinkling lights.
yep. nothing has ever been associated with something else, history doesn't cause the present day, material reality isn't real
Material reality is a whataboutism. Also, if you don't agree the economy is doing great, it's a personal failing and you're probably a loser.If you can't adhere to the topic at hand in a vacuum, and not bring up other things that make your case, then I have nothing left to say to you. You're helping trump
whataboutism 
a lot of the rest of is is libs getting mad at you and yelling at you red in the face OH YEAH WELL WHAT IS YOUR SOLUTION HUH WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT IM WAITING IM WAITING YOU HAVE NOTHING SO I GUESS OUR CURRENT IDEOLOGY OF DEATH IS WHAT YOU GET
there will never be a moment of reckoning for them, never a moment of self reflection on any scale until the last moment when they realize that the people with power now absolutely hate them and they are the enemy and then they will flee to another country and talk about how awesome they were and how bad it actually was that they had to stop killing more people in their country and they better start killing more people in this country they are in now or they risk becoming like the country they fled who are worse than them, of course
tale as old as time
I remember talking to my dad about defunding the police and citing how one time simply not policing reduced crime reports. I noted things like giving people money, social workers, and addiction rehabilitation all lowered crime rates and kept people safer. I even conceded that sometimes you did need someone with a gun to arrest people but far less than the norm. His ass still did the talking point "what are we gonna do instead?" Cause I remember feeling so frustrated about how I had given him 3 or 4 things to do instead and with a budget the size of a police force, I'm sure you could get some neat programs going. This joker likes to do the "appeal to cinema" fallacy so I don't know what I expected.
Liberalism is structured around a visual occlusion of violence from the people it is done on behalf of.
The market is upheld by force. "Law and order" are maintained by police. That shirt you bought is not a product of someone working 2 hours in a sweatshop under coercive conditions, it is merely $25 and 100% cotton and that is all there is to know about it.
