I said it's not good to go off half cocked

2018-09-21 01:45:35 UTC  

Guys, you can't just rely on physical options like water filters and super male vitality. That's only half the battle. You have to reign in the powers those give you with the Gorilla Mindset

2018-09-21 01:45:35 UTC  

I personally want the left to survive, even if they are responsible for an unruly wave of violence and corruption in the present.

2018-09-21 01:45:49 UTC  

If you don't want to go off half cocked have you considered the use of nuclear weapons against all major population centers?

2018-09-21 01:45:54 UTC  

I didn't say helicopter all lefties either

2018-09-21 01:46:07 UTC  

@Beemann Now that you mention it...

2018-09-21 01:46:19 UTC  

not a half bad idea.

2018-09-21 01:46:22 UTC  

The left will always survive as long as we have a two party system and the right is still around. The hope is just to boot the crazies out of the left

2018-09-21 01:46:24 UTC  

But there is a need to hit specific targets to undermine the power imbalance

2018-09-21 01:46:59 UTC  

I think media is an own goal. They're wholly dependent on Trump now

2018-09-21 01:47:18 UTC  

But yeah, I've seen more and more people over the last year who want to use the left's tactics against them, and while I think that would work in the short term I fear for what it would bring in the long term. And I'm not willing to give up on my principles like that

2018-09-21 01:47:23 UTC  

The good news is that the legal system is still largely intact, so corruption, violence, and certain forms of misrepresentation can be tried and righted in a court.

2018-09-21 01:47:25 UTC  

Which leaves us with Academia and basically HR

2018-09-21 01:47:26 UTC  

A couple of Project Veritas clones would be great.

2018-09-21 01:47:38 UTC  

(At some monetary cost)

2018-09-21 01:47:44 UTC  

Infiltrate and expose. Make lefties scared of each other.

2018-09-21 01:47:47 UTC  

I think it depends on what it means when you say "the left's tactics"

2018-09-21 01:48:13 UTC  

Tape conversations.

2018-09-21 01:48:19 UTC  

I mean the extremist left. Basically everything we complain about.

2018-09-21 01:48:21 UTC  

I think generally they mean dishonesty, misrepresentation, and possibly violence.

2018-09-21 01:48:35 UTC  

Right, you don't need any of those though

2018-09-21 01:48:50 UTC  

You need examination, application of standards and actual communal support

2018-09-21 01:48:50 UTC  

Lindsay Shepherd was incredibly disruptive from a single ~30 minute taped conversation.

2018-09-21 01:48:56 UTC  

The problem is, those tactics are designed to produce narratives which energize the left in particular.

2018-09-21 01:49:01 UTC  

And yeah, record all your shit

2018-09-21 01:49:15 UTC  

recording your shit is not a partisan issue, it's a matter of basic prudence.

2018-09-21 01:49:36 UTC  

Sure, but it disproportionately hits the far left

2018-09-21 01:49:37 UTC  

If it is legal for you to record your conversations (which is unfortunately not the case in many places), then you should do it.

2018-09-21 01:49:55 UTC  

Particularly in institutions they depend on

2018-09-21 01:49:57 UTC  

it is so cheap these days

2018-09-21 01:50:08 UTC  

there is no excuse except the legality

2018-09-21 01:50:12 UTC  

Everyone has a phone

2018-09-21 01:50:22 UTC  

well, recording on your phone is a bad way to go

2018-09-21 01:50:31 UTC  

since it encourages you to pick and choose when to record

2018-09-21 01:50:53 UTC  

It's not necessarily ideal, sure

2018-09-21 01:50:59 UTC  

But it works

2018-09-21 01:51:01 UTC  

sure

2018-09-21 01:51:06 UTC  

if it's all you have, definitely

2018-09-21 01:51:15 UTC  

just keep in mind what effect convenience has on things

2018-09-21 01:51:36 UTC  

I'm sure the folks over in <#467577750325297162> will tell you all about the effect of convenience on _compliance with a regimen_.

2018-09-21 02:14:26 UTC  

ugh swedish airplane lady face is infuriatingly dumb looking
