How bad do we let things get? Should we wait until the planet can’t sustain life anymore? Should we wait until it’s 100 degrees F in the Artic? Until wildfires blanket entire continents or the last glacier is gone? Should we wait until fascist billionaires take even more from us? Until there are Flock cameras at every mail box? Maybe we should wait until the wells run dry or the tornadoes never stop. When is it going to be enough? I’m so tired of seeing things getting worse. Every. Single. Day. I’m ready. I’ve been ready. How about you?

How do we coordinate? How do we look after each other? What is the signal? If we don’t work together then we are just continuing our slow march to destruction to the drum of the parasitic billionaires. Please, for us, for the cats, the dogs, the birds and trees. The fish and the whales, the beatles and the centipedes. Please tell me it’s worth it to you, that you’re willing to get uncomfortable, that you’re willing to fight. There are more of us than them, and we are rapidly running out of time to make that mean something.

    Dude you were being extremely transphobic. I actually went and read your convo. You were using the fact that Diva is trans so say some really horrible shit. No wonder she doesn’t want you posting in her comm.

    Even if you differ in opinion. You actually do have to be nice to people and you do have to treat everyone with respect.

      Bullshit, post the comments - I don’t need to be nice to anyone, especially not people who sweep for mass murderers.

          Again, why should I be nice? Tell me why I should be nice to someone saying death to America?

          What I said here is 100% accurate.

            Death to America means death to the imperial regime. It does not mean death to the American people. It is not a personal attack on you. It feels like you took it personally and starting throwing transphobic insults. If you want to make the world a better place. You have to do better.

              Wrong, and Diva knows it.

          Literally anyone with half of a brain recognizes that not voting for Kamala was the wrong choice. Congratulations, you and your alt account have proven my points for me.

          Also, sick strawman - post the transphobia.

              Oh so it is your alt account, great to have that established.

              Now that I’ve proven you’re a deceitful liar, what’s confusing about this? I called you a clanker and a troglodyte too - is that transphobic now?

              No, now run along to your safe spaces and cry about me.

                  Oh, no - I have things to do besides brigade on Lemmy. It is funny how you seem to show up any time Diva gets into it, I wonder why that is?

                  I could assume alt accounts but I’ll call it what it is - brigading.

                it was in my first reply to you here, i have two alt accounts, diva@hexbear.net and diva@lemmy.blahaj.zone

                you said that i’m not trans because you don’t like my politics, you dehumanize all of your political enemies. in your twisted cop mind you’re not being ‘transphobic’, because i’m not even human in your eyes.

                  Yeah you keep calling me a cop, you do understand that the DoJ isn’t 100% cops - correct?

                  Beyond which, no - I dehumanize people I dislike. I specifically dislike you, and I’m justified - especially considering every single conversation with you turns into brigading and a circlejerk between you me and Davel.

                  Turns out, I just don’t give enough of a fuck to court extremists! So yes I’ll say whatever the fuck I want, because ultimately it doesn’t matter - if it hurts your feelings maybe you should examine what made me so militant against you in the first place.

                  Spoilers: it’d be you dehumanizing Americans.

                  Edit: No, you’re right about one thing, I can shit sling without dehumanizing you. That was wrong of me - I don’t take any of it back because people like you are the reason Trump is president.

                    i asked if you were a cop, since you sound like one and said that you worked for them. is this a denial? did you have a sudden career change?

                    if it hurts your feelings maybe you should examine what made me so militant against you in the first place.

                    i mean i’m used to cops behaving like you, so it’s not a big surprise, if you’re not a cop its certainly rubbing off from your coworkers

                    it’d be you dehumanizing Americans.

                    are you really that surface level?

                    ‘marg bar ameriki’/death to america doesn’t mean ‘kill americans’, it’s wishing for an end to the american government and its oppressive reign of terror around the world. like in iran they say ‘death to traffic’ and it doesn’t mean they want every other driver to be killed, it means they want it to end.

                    you have demonstrated an extremely poor ability to process words from me and i feel bad for any women in your life when you’ve had a bad day
