i got into a huge argument in comments over whether or not socialism is a form of humanism

Humanism is critical thinking, socialism isn't

yeah, i mean socialism clearly isn't critical

but then I see articles like this - https://thehumanist.com/commentary/what-is-socialism

If our nation is so fragile as to be brought to it's knees by some harsh rhetoric, and it's so easy for it to be subverted by a single political party who has weaponized our system of laws and the attention span of the citizenry, then we weren't exactly in the best position in the first place.

Just "being nice" to each other won't fix these problems, and just kicks the can further down the road for it to come back even more vicious

Maybe thats the plan? <:think_woke:378717098681171988>

@Broo TulsiGang 2024 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 Irish PM looks like a confidence trickster, just looking at his face

@Fitzydog Fair enough, but while changes take place, 'being nice to each other' is a good secondary priority maybe

like when you do a military mission, there's priority 1 and then priority 2

eg. Priority 1 capture the base and occupy it, priority 2 rescue civilians

"Being nice" just let's the globalists/socialists continue to make things more difficult to undo

lol no, i think being nice is just something people do to survive in the social climate

if they're able to undermine what being nice does, then they've already won, imo

like if they have that much spiritual control or whatever

Alex Jones level of psychic control

Like, how do you undo giving 16yos voting rights?

You don't. That's lost territory.

lol

hm

as an example

do 16 yo's have votes

should be considered major electoral reform to lower the voting age

Did you see the link above? DC wants to give them rights. And other Dems on the east coast have said the same

ah ok

no, i was just curious whether or not it already happened

yeah i dont agree with that

lol

It's on the table, which means it will become a platoform issue at some point

voting age :16, drinking age: 21 <:what:382980756139409409>

"Voting is practicing how to be an adult."

It's entirely about getting more votes for their team

yep

The slow march towards "social democracy" and authoritarian nightmare fuel doesn't get reversed.

so what's that thing about article 5 being used

Not without a lot of pain

yeah, but the republicans are going to get a full house

come mid terms, semper fi

etc.

Yeah, but then you still have 50million people at least in the country who want to continue the march

meh, so they riot

and then the other NPCs react
