Sure. But Nash specifically has a lot of nimby bigots - so while 2 car park spots is great, they won’t vote for a future in which no car spots is acceptable because that would mean an increase in public transit. cf the whole light rail idea that was killed even though a light rail from downtown to east or bellevue would have been fantastic.

what’s truly funny about this rhetoric is that the US has a documented history of being dangerous with nuclear weapons. The ONLY nation, ever, actually.

“Ain’t no war but class war, baby .”

I truly don’t think there are any except for working class factions trying to push back colonialism and genocide - and specifically regarding the US/Israel, the reason it’s not marketed as a world war is because there is documented proof they are doing the evil here.

We are already “in” ww3, except because the US and Israel and their allies are the bad guys, it’s not marketed as such.

100%. In my opinion, if a state “must” exist, becoming a citizen should be a 15 minute process. Do you have fingerprints? Can you sign your name? Ok. Welcome, citizen.

my neighbors are immigrants from Ukraine. A family of hard working people and a new baby! I worry for them and do not look forward to interrupting ICE when they raid and I see them on my cameras. “seen these people?” “nope also who are you, get off my lawn.”

stochastic parrots. all of them. just upgraded “soundex” models.

this should be no surprise, of course!

i don’t understand - true (late stage/elderly/aged) capitalists are fascist because fascism is what it takes to keep a dying capitalist class alive after it “peacefully” extracted all it can from the working class.

the kgb is the fbi is the kgb as they are all arms of a state trying to make its bones via capitalism.

naaa, because he’s a capitalist is better.

being yourself in this world in ways that are comfortable to you is the way to go. activism is comfortable to some. you being you, in this day and age, is a form of activism sadly. stay strong and happy and healthy! :)

sure on public free “you’re the product” sites.

communism is when bike lanes.

that’s it lol. thanks!

i feel like i saw this strip format recently and his face was more realistically orange.

Holliday, mo. when I lived there the population was 300. but I only ever saw ten people. I commuted to work in Columbia.

capitalist mutual masturbation and manufactured cognitive dissonance / distraction so they don’t have to actually change anything and effect profit potential. while they wait for daddy dictator trump to open their proposals in the form of a cotton sack with a dollar sign on the side.

*Zionists dislike.

There are plenty of Jewish folks who hate zionism.

we do not really hang with the cops, truly honestly. we have a small “city” of about 13k. a full volly fd and ems. paid cops. some of whom know my stance, I’m honest. others pretend to wanna be chummy at scenes, but we largely just ignore them or stick them on traffic.

I once did a rescue of a woman with a mental problem, she started her house on fire. admitted it to me. then punched me in the face. ran back in. I donned my mask and went and “kindly” dragged her out. into the hands of the cop who saw and arrested her.

cop got a “life saving” medal. hilarious and we fd side joke about it all the time. other cops? I’ve seen them do chest compressions for a long time cause they got there first and be sad after losing someone; I still don’t want them in charge of shit and know they come with an ever present chance of violence.

there are probably 3 “full” lefties on my dept, and we do our best to shut down any standard rhetoric you might imagine we hear from some of the more “redneck cosplay dip spitting yee haw” types in the dept. but after being in 20 years I truly don’t keep my mouth shut at all. recent example was a young ff who was “complaining” about some unhoused folks squatting in an apt bldg vacancy who would not let us in a 3rd time to the apt. I kindly reminded this kid, even if they don’t “own” it they still need a place to feel like they are safe. (I had what info I needed, this guy just needed to exercise some sort of power.). I shut him down, and after some reflection I think he realized what I meant cause his demeanor changed.

sorry to ramble! being a 1st responder is a huge part of what I consider “community mutual aid.”
