I couldn’t believe how many people bought that Harry Potter game that came out like 2 years ago. Not only was the game shitty looking ubishlock, but also we’ve known for years just how f***ed up jk rowling is as a person.
Having said that, as I child I remember protesting against the school trying to encourage me to buy Harry Potter at the school book faire. I get now that they were only trying to encourage me to read by suggesting a popular book, but I really didn’t like the cult-like obsession around this book even as a kid, so I’ve had bad vibes around the book series since the very-late 90s lol.
Yep its ableist and privileged to argue against slavery when some people rely on their slaves to support their family. /s
HOLY SHIT THIS ANALOGY IS PERFECT
There’s still slavery in the US, as it is still allowed when incarcerated. No one fights back.
This is exactly what we’ve been conditioned to be. We can’t even bother to do the most basic of tasks to put up an actual fight against the constant upward growth of the billionaire class, but we think we’re so strong that nobody would mess with us. We think that showing up to a protest with a sign is fighting back because we think we’re intimidating enough to scare people into following our orders, but really we’re a tiny dog yapping at an intruder who doesn’t even care enough to shut it up.
We were raised specifically to have so much confidence in ourselves that we continue thinking that we would fight back - and win handily - if we ever needed to, while ignoring all the little things we could be doing, since there’s no point in doing them if we’ll win the fight when it comes to that, but also ignoring the fact that the fight should’ve started years ago.
MLK wouldn’t have been effective without Malcom X.
But which one has a holiday?
Man my teenager to adult transitional cynicism was pretty fucking bad (which of course occurred between 9/11 and the 2008 financial collapse)…middle-aged awakening is even fucking worse.
Seriously. That and Tesla.I live in a progressive city and the number of teslas makes me angry. Some of them have the apology stickers but most don’t.
You can fix that with a mask, a bat, a change of clothes, preplanned routes that you never repeat, and not currently having any other hobbies.
This is a bad idea for the same reason the death sentence is
What, bashing out some headlights?
… what did you think I was implying, breaking into Tesla owners homes and beating them to death?
The cars are one thing, but that horrible excuse for a truck gets all the aggression and hatred I can muster on the roads that won’t lead me to prison. Those things only started to be sold once the Republican’s favorite South African went full mask off. No excuse for owning one of those.
In LA the amount of them is so incredibly cringe inducing. They never, ever stop looking like shit, no matter what crappy wraps or vanity plates with reddit tier puns they put on it.
