My graphic driver’s get corrupted when my computer goes to sleep

Oh look, we are both misunderstanding each other, posting protests as if I am against them. Look friend, neither of us like genocide. We both recognize it as a genocide. We both think action against the state in protest of the genocide to be a good thing. We both have probably participated in similar forms of action to that effect. Let’s give each other the benefit of the doubt on that front. My argument is that voting does not diminish any of those actions. But not voting does nothing but increase the chance of a worse outcome overall both in relation to the genocide of palastinians and the harm that would come domestically to other at risk folk.

Terms like “it legitimizes electoral politics” or similar are nice self justifications for ignoring that choice, but you and I both know regardless of choice in the matter, the genocide will continue. So keep protesting. Keep direct actioning up the place. But also, take the half second to engage in a wee bit of lesser evilism, even if it hurts our pride to do so.

There. I didn’t do any shut up middle school lines. I made an argument.

Them palastinians will sure appreciate your direct action of not voting. That’ll fix them right up.

By specifically acknowledging that no matter the choice, the genocide will continue and purposely putting that concept at the front while also acknowledging between the two options, one will be better than the other. I mean, your currently providing GDP toward genocide. If it was so all encompassingly important to you, you would be more radical than to argue on Lemmy. Put your life on the line soldier, or accept that there is only so much us western haters of genocide can do in this specific case at this specific point in time.

Except that the people saying this are making a distinction between the two. Do you want to interpret what they are trying to say or do you wanna play word games? Disingenuous.

I’d love to see an explanation for that one.

Endorsement means you like them. This makes it clear they do not.

Landlords do not build housing, nor do they do repair work. So I’m gonna say the scarry trigger word for all you libertarians out there to gasp at. Gubberment.

Imagine a world where housing was given on a per-need basis. People still need to travel for work and stay for months at a time, except it’s understood that the job getting done is more important than a landlord profiting off the fact you have to travel for it.

The lack of a landlord also does not prevent you from temporarily using open housing either.

The lack of a land lord does not mean the house disappeared off the planet.

I got banned for fighting pedophiles over stupid Dr disrespect drama. Stupid as in Doctor disrespect is a pedophile and his fans made excuses. I went into their sub like the little dumbass I am and picked fights with pedophiles about why “he didn’t break any laws” isn’t incompatible with him being a fucking pedophile and reddit banned me for “distributing child sexual content”. For telling people that just because it’s legal to fuck a 16 year old in Alabama doesn’t mean your not a fucking pedo.

Appealed and denied at that.

I shouldn’t go picking fights in bees nests, or at all generally. Bad for your mental health and all. But still disturbs me that reddit won’t ban the pedophile defenders but will ban someone picking fights with them.

Lower effort reply

I can agree with your complaint. That is true.

It’s a small level of harm reduction. It is not a substitute for direct action. But it is necessary if you care about reducing any kind of harm in the world no matter how small.
