No, not really, and I mean that genuinely.
There are too many people on here that say shit like “You should firebomb a Walmart” and mean it with their whole heart. We already had that with the Kimberly-Clarke warehouse and we got diaper shortages. Firebombing a Walmart only hurts the locals in the area who won’t get food.
Even with bombing a police station, pray that locals actually care about each other and can respond to emergencies appropriately. I absolutely think police need reform but I’m not gonna sit here and go “I don’t need to call the cops if someone breaks into my house”
Firebombing a billionaires house? Absolutely, it hurts no one else but them (pray that no house workers are in there). Fireboming cop cars when they’re attacking protesters? Sure.
But people are fucking stupid. Luigi
shotdid nothing to that CEO and that’s great and all, but it didn’t change anything. Now we got a chucklefuck who shot a random pharmacist because “Big Pharma Bad.”I just think that too many people on here are encouraging senless violence rather than actual, planned, and carefully considerated operations. And i do not want to see innocents get caught up in brash, half-baked bouts of insanity because a person thought they were “helping.”

Oh I mean, If you wanna go back to BLM where Americans set fire and destroyed several businesses sure. People act like Americans have never destroyed property, the problem is that it wasn’t properly coordinated and people were burning down random fucking businesses rather than actual places that deserve it. All it lead to was food deserts and small businesses shuttering.
Never mind the fact that we could and would absolutely get shot for rolling up on a cop car like this but, sure man. I do love getting my daily reminder from non-US people that I should go outside and get myself killed today.

Plenty? I have never been to any restaurant that didn’t take cash or credit card, and especially not one that FORCES you to use Whatsapp to get a code so you can pay through their shitty app.
Have YOU been to a restaurant like that in the US? Not saying they can’t exist, but I just imagine it’d be extremely rare.
- Comment on We can't keep tying healthcare to employment 2 months ago:
Cool. Did anything change with our healthcare?
I’m not shedding any tears over that shitty CEO getting killed but people act like everything magically got better because a CEO died.
Legislation is the only thing that can actually stop the next hydra head from popping up. People with wealth and power will easily outpower peasants. How many rebellions ended with another tyrant in place?
- Comment on ‘Close to zero impact’: US study casts doubt on effect of phone ban in schools 5 months ago:
I distinctly remember my elementary school not being able to call my parents because their area code wasn’t the local area code but okay.
Phones should be allowed in schools, just take them before class starts and hand them back after.
- Comment on EU vs USA 6 months ago:
Oh so BLM didn’t happen huh?
In some cities people literally set fucking buildings on fire, and guess what? It didn’t change shit. Mindless fires, looting, and destruction of property doesn’t mean you’ll magically get the government to care. It gets all the local mom-and-pops to close and the grocery stores to leave, giving you mothing but a food desert.
I’m so fucking tired of all the EU people on Lemmy making fun of people for at least getting out there and showing others we should care. Senless violence will not solve all of our issues. Someone could shoot Trump tomorrow and sure, maybe we’d get Civil War (so fun am I right!), but that doesn’t mean his chain of succession won’t exist. Are we going to kill the entire fucking cabinet then?
Also isn’t the UK struggling with Isreal protest arrest right now? Where’s their mass violence and fires? Why don’t we care about them?
I’m getting fucking tired of coming onto this site to see endless outsiders eagerly jeering at us to risk our lives in a random blaze of glory that will lead nowhere without a true guide and rebellion. The gun fetishsts are not the ones who hate Trump. They fucking love him. Us normal people hate the idea of touching them. The only people willing to do a suicide mission are those who have nothing to lose, and most people aren’t there. Go be Luigi, and watch how you either die or get stuck in jail limbo for decades. What did shooting the CEO change? Absolutely nothing. Our healthcare system still sucks, because this isn’t a violence problem, it’s a legislation issue.
Should we make fun of HK protesters for being peacful? Iran got a dictator blown to bits and is still going to be in hell.
I genuinely will be curious to see how all of these armchair rebels react if there’s ever a case of mass government corruption in their country in a decade or so. I don’t want for anyone to be in a situation like this, but we’ll see if you keep that same attitude up when it’s your lives on the line.

Would’ve been a perfect video without the bashing on women for using the Tea app, and “shitty taste in men” in general, but okay. Just straight up ew; gonna ruin the rest of my night thinking about that.
(A littlw after 8:25 for anyone who’s curious)
