“Nope” hand up. Walk away. The end.

So your hot take is that people with adhd are broken?

@ifbookspod.bsky.social ok, but lists and em dash… did Chatterton just have AI write his book…?!?

Oh that’s ok- Trump has pushed to raise prices here in Europe just to screw over Europeans, and of course these companies are complying… ffs

Oh, I’m sure he’s wished well to other child rapists.

Ffs dude. Your mansplaining to me what I’m actually asking when you haven’t managed to track it at all is truly *chefs kiss*

That isn’t really the answer I’m seeking. I am aware that people have different opinions from each other. That isn’t part of the question. And it isn’t even about Nazis. My question is about fascist ideas, and if those fighting against Germans were against those ideas or just the German part.

Debate and Protest — Disconnect White Power The change you seek in a debate is not with the opposing party in the debate. That is not the point of the interaction, and it is not why you engage.  Hillary wasn’t there to change Trump’s mind ...

This- in terms of talking. www.disconnectwhitepower.com/blog/2018/9/...

But in terms of how dems, they’re talking about what they don’t want, while still buying into toxic systems. There isn’t a vision for what IS wanted. And far too many are happy to keep the peace rather than make waves.

Nah, it’s not about being silent. It’s about not believing what they’re telling you is their motivation, not thinking facts will change their mind. It’s about not changing their mind or trying to but impacting others around. And it’s about deciding what’s wanted, not just what isn’t wanted.

Cont. build an actual vision- what do you want to see, what are your core values, what do those look like in practice. As long as you play the game by capitalist rules you will fail to win people away from fascism.

Call your grandparents racist if (lol) they are. Stop being nice to keep peace.

Nope. The reality is I spent decades doing what you’re doing- and it was largely useless. Here’s what I should have done sooner:
1. Don’t hold hands with fascists incl family
2. Recognise capitalism will always lead to fascism
3. Stop being distracted by the fascist circus which is their rhetoric

Then you have Vance.

So basically, you do the easy comfortable thing and write it down as you doing your part. Got it. Thank you for sharing.

You just don’t go looking to talk about it? Do your goal is to have conversations with people who are easy to talk to but don’t really have any impact on the world and this is what you suggest others spend their time doing?

And yes, you can avoid your family. Many do it.

Because you’re not having a friendly exchange of ideas- you’re being gaslit by people who are wasting your time and energy. Instead of actively building something new, you’re chasing around addressing their false rhetoric- it’s what dems do, and why dems have no actual plan or different vision.

You’re not going to change the minds of the church ladies and men. Trumps policies are the opposite of Christ values and yet they actively support him- they’ve already brainwashed themselves about what they believe and why they’re voting the way they vote.

Why spend your energy on people who have little to no influence? Why con yourself that your work is best spent there?

So one person who has limited if any ability to actually change the views of those around her? Has she actually voted differently? Or is she just telling you what she knows you want to hear because being nice is how she was raised?

Is that a good use of your time and energy?

It’s almost like we think this is new behaviour. It’s almost like we think they care about child SA. It’s almost like we don’t realise this is a distraction.

Trying to stay positive is how we got into this mess. Hoping something works is how we got into this mess. Not looking at reality is how we got into this mess.

First answer why you believe presenting counterpoints to rhetoric works. Have you actively changed people’s minds
AND behaviours? I don’t mean they agree with you but go on supporting fascism. I mean they actively stop supporting the thing in question.

That game is an intentional distraction- literally the plan of the far right and fascists everywhere. But if you want to play that game go for it. Just know that you’re a part of their plan and your compliance to it is appreciated.
Definitely don’t build anything- keep on arguing rhetoric…

You really think liberal men will vote for a women?

Ah yes, pushing for “cleansing”

Thank you for outing who you really are and what your political beliefs really are.

From what I can see, many on the “left” are likely just shills to keep dems distracted.

You have no problem with people’s lives being destroyed- that stuff is all they have- it’s their paperwork, their ID’s.

It’s wild you just said outloud you have no problem with destroying people’s lives.

It’s cute they think it will be a fair election. Or do they… maybe they’re just part of the machine to keep the dems distracted?

Why? Do you actually think any of his supporters care? That if he’s on it they’ll believe it?

Wild that you assume not playing the game you’ve been told to play is giving up.

Or are you actually just pushing for the left to continue to be distracted so we don’t make change?

As long as they’re still simping for capitalism, of course that’s what they’re going to do. They’re getting paid for the role they’re playing.
