Comment on Finally an explanation
SarahValentine@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 hours agoI find it amazing that you’re seriously advising people to fight the foot soldiers to no end instead of, you know, the handful of people in that “government” who are responsible for enabling them. The people with the wealth, influence, and technology to rig elections, make enemies and evidence disappear, controvert the law with impunity, and psychologically manipulate the masses.
But yeah fuck it, let’s just stay mad at Bubba on Facebook with a room temp IQ.

You see the problem here is you’ve decided what I’m arguing and suggesting people do, rather than actually reading my comment. I don’t think I’ve ever stated anywhere that you can’t apply any of what I’ve said to politicians rich CEOs and anybody else who’s at it.
But there is a very important distinction to be made between the people who are actually hurting people and the people who are using because the people who are using them won’t do anything on their own they need their foot soldiers as you call them. Diminish their footstep holders and you diminish their power too it’s all one thing.

Again, hilarious. You’ve talked yourself out of correctness and into victim blaming. Congratulations, you’re no better than them for the good of all mankind. Toodles.

I’m confused as to what your suggestion is. Do you think people who are “just followingorders” should not be held accountable for their actions because they were not the ones issuing the orders?

Hey do you remember the part of WWII where they landed on Omaha Beach then just sat there for the rest of the war killing wave after wave of dudes?
Yeah me neither, cuz it didn’t happen. They pressed forward. They went for the commanders. The generals. They went for Hitler. Don’t ask me stupid questions like that again.
