Oh, it’s a different Dana White
Oooh ok, I was surprised and confused for a second.
This supports my hypothesis that people are mostly emotional. They’re angry and scared so they lash out. They’re not thinking in a calm detached manner.
Somehow we need to direct all the negative emotions towards the people who actually deserve it
It’s mainly an issue in the US. And Americans are not taught how to handle emotions or think critically.
What is exactly an American issue? Because all the issues here are not exclusive to the US, they’re pervasive all over Europe, and as far as I know (second hand), the rest of the world as well.
Post-national wealth is the thing they’re distracting us from. They’re more powerful than countries. They’ve basically bought the worlds superpowers. The axis of power is not nations anymore but collectives of oligarchs. As it stands it’s apparently the Russia, China, and America regions with billionaires toying the world like a board game.
France used to use pitchforks and guillotine for that.
Very triggering posts to the Americans, indeed. If anyone is so close to death that they seek wisdom of that of an Angel, do feel free to message me.
Is Dana white fuckin dudes now?
Well he laid out pretty clearly why we shouldn’t care
Fuck away my man! Well said. Well not man, just…you know what I mean. Everyone should enjoy life in this country so long as it doesn’t bother others. That’s the whole thing expressed in “the pursuit of happiness”. That’s why we’re all here, just trying to be as happy as we can be.
They’re cucks. They want daddy dump to bend them over
Politicians (on all sides) tell us to worry about pronouns and bathrooms so that we are too distracted to question where our taxes are going
One side wants to dehumanize and jail/deport all non-cisgender people, the other side wants them to stop, and you think both sides are the problem because they aren’t focused on taxes enough?
All sides?
I get his point and I agree with it, but I think it’s worth pointing out that people can and often do care about multiple things at once
This can be turned around. The planet is burning and you want to fuck around and argue pronouns.
How should unity be created? By tolerating everything or by surpressing everything in public?
Both are possible. How should the choice be made which one to use?
Nobody wants to argue about fucking pronouns except the people insisting on making it into a fucking issue. Nobody wants to argue it’s okay to fuck who they want except the fuckheads saying you can’t fuck who you want because I disagree.
This is a beyond garbage take.
Preach!
The amount of news over:
two Democrats getting assassinated by a maga pastor
VS
A trans teenager won a sports award in a city competition.
except the people insisting on making it into a fucking issue
Which are enough that society is split and there is no unity to prevent the planet from burning.
It’s one way to call them stupid and wait until they change their mind. I think it’s better to recognize that they insist on their way with the same determination. So instead of waiting forever, we should find a way to overcome the split.
find a way to overcome the split
Good idea, I propose everybody grows the fuck up and accepts people can be different than they are without being evil. If regressives can’t tolerate the existence of LQBTQ+ comrades, the only two morally acceptable choices I see are for them to get their shit together or for the rest of the world to move on without them. I’d LOVE to see a full working class coalition, but keep in mind these aren’t differences of opinion over tax policies we’re talking here - there’s no room for compromise if the stakes are human rights.
Intolerance is not to be tolerated.
How should the choice be made which one to use?
Use tolerance as a social contract instead of a default “everyone is tolerated” type. If you don’t tolerate someone else in society then you are no longer tolerated. Seems simple to me.
Now you might say, but the people that want to be called a certain pronoun aren’t tolerating the hatred of another group that wants to address them “however they see fit”. Well that 2nd group isn’t tolerating the first group. The first group was just living and the second group started the intolerance. Also, if you use hatred to justify why you should be tolerated then you lost the fight.
Hope that clears it up for you.
If you don’t tolerate someone else in society then you are no longer tolerated.
You can only do that if you control society. If you don’t then intolerance towards nonnormative behavior becomes also a possible strategy.
There’s tiger that want to eat you and you want to negotiate a peace treaty with the tiger. 🤣
You ignore your own power. It’s two tigers who have to cooperate to escape a burning cage.
