There’s some kind of program out there that replaces his face with a kitten. My wife has had it on her computer for years
This is a deep cut. I like

“Slowly, I told myself that evolution failed itself by giving a bit more individual selfishness over community/species survival.”
There are a lot of great answers here already, but I would like to put forth the anticapitalist position that the quote above is likely false. Humans can work together, we have developed systems of cooperation that can deter selfishness from destroying a community. This is possible (and despite decades of propaghanda…popular!) What is stopping it is the greed for wealth and power of the 1% at the expense of everyone else and the planet. The masses of people are constantly trying to stop this, and mostly fail. But cracks in their power do open occasionally, and you just have to do what you can until a Crack is available for you to help widen. I think it’s possible to win, but not through personal lifestyle changes and voting alone. Only through activism and protest is it possible. Most humans keep trying to solve this, and that gives me hope.
That’s the one!
What’s the movie? I really identify with corpse #3
Exactly. Almost everytime the chaos is when police beat and arrest peaceful protest. A lot of protest never even got off the ground, so to speak. I saw thousands gather in a park and as soon as they took their first steps to march waves of police moved in and just destroyed them.
Who should Gimli replace in A new hope? I say Leia. The line "short for a storm trooper " would be extra funny. He could be tossed over the gap when fleeing the death star. I like imagining him reacting to his home planet being blown up. And later in the series it would be quite the reveal when he turns out to be Luke’s sister.
Yes and it also, obviously, wouldnt satisfy those who want Israel to control the whole area. And there would still be conflict that would have to be resolved from decades of violence on both sides. But it is an easy first step that the international community could enforce and it would start dialing down tensions. But because of my country (US), the world is never allowed to take that step.
To all the people saying there isn’t an easy solution: you are wrong, the solution is actually very easy, easier than most international problems. It’s the solution the entire political world has been willing to get behind for 50 years or so. If I remember correctly it’s that Israel return to its 1967 borders and get rid of its nuclear weapons. Every couple years the UN votes on this, the results are always like 230 to 2. The whole world agrees, except for Israel and the US, and the US vetoes it every time.
Imagine getting 99% of the world to agree to something, and thinking the problem is too complicated to solve.
Counter measures against warlordism would be crucial for effective anarchism for sure!
I think the easiest approach to anarchism is searching for Chomsky talking about it.
This is correct. If society becomes a place where a few people are running everything by force it is not anarchy, even if technically there are no written down laws. A lot of anarchist philosophy is about how to achieve and maintain anarchy without it devolving back into hierarchical power structures. There are a lot of different ideas that have spawned their own subgenre of anarchy. I personally think some checks and balances combination of unions and community councils is the most likely to succeed. This is anarcho-syndicalism.
How would it work? If I had to guess he will use a giant hammer, or maybe a cute flower that squirts water.
look at that confidence in mickeys face. Little fucker will pull some legal shit at the very last second, just watch.
gonna need some links to some of those lefty shitpost forums or else I’m forming my own splinter group
Boy cant wait to hear democrats start complaining about this. “should we have tried to stop the genocide we armed? No no, it’s the Muslims that are wrong.”
