Again, I can agree with the sentiment that it seems like most won’t change, but to give up altogether is to give up on those that would’ve changed too. In favor of what? Watching more tv? Playing more games? It costs next to nothing to be vocal and educated when using social media.
We don’t need to convince everyone of the truth and of reality and tolerance. Just one person is enough for me.
“It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness”
We have a moral imperative to enlighten those who are ignorant in direct alignment with humanities shared pursuit of truth and of happiness. We owe it to the people who inspired us to continue that tradition. In fact, we only are improving our own understanding of Truth by teaching and speaking with others and challenging those ideas. Maybe someone else will inspire us to tweak something and move our collective progress closer to enlightenment
Harris is already thinking about Cabinet choices and looking to get younger, more diverse than Biden
Can we impeach the justices that will hinder progress with this administration?
Plus you know, people in charge of the FUCKING judicial system shouldn’t have ties to war criminals where possible (considering we most definitely are war criminals, I’m not ignorant to that)
I don’t think we have to tolerate those people though either.
It’s called the paradox of intolerance and was pretty simply solved:
Tolerance is a contract. If someone isn’t participating, you do not have to participate with them.
In fact, I think that being tolerant to the intolerant is akin to being complicit. Who would want to tolerate people who are disrespecting your established cultural norms of freedom and tolerance??
Disrespectful + anti American + dated + impedes progress
And you know, it’s valid if you wanna switch course.
I think it’s alright to take breaks but that ideology of “I give up with these people” can be addictive for some and I just wanted to make the contrary view available for people to see too.
Education is ultimately key. You can use their tactics against them too sometimes. Don’t forget maga morons do botnets and stuff too. There’s lots of ways to combat the fascist!
Bingo. They’re filling the lake with shit and piss, you pump in more chlorine.
I totally agree. I don’t think adults should be without education programs if I’m being honest. Businesses usually prefer cert programs which require continuing education to prove historical and continual knowledge, why not do this with adults? I think the media could easily do this if they were somehow incentivized to broadcast more educational material in a relatable way to adults.
Knowledge it power, why are we stopping/hindering adults from continually growing? I see 4 day work weeks work so well elsewhere - that’s another thing. Idk man, the planets burning too.. we have so many problems facing us ahead I just wanna make sure I can do what I can
I guarantee if you educate their children in schools ahead of time, teenage rebellion will encourage more states to become (over time, as older generations fade) more pro-choice
Guaran-fucking-tee it. Yes that involves legislature and voting, but yes it does mean you can sway parents via education of at least their family and/or friends.
What’s with this defeatist shit?
It’s not impossible to show people they’re in the wrong. Often, I’d argue even for most, it’s just a matter of time and the individual being exposed to direct consequences.
That is the most nihilistic and ignorant statement I’ve ever heard in my life tbh
You’re generalizing hundreds of thousands of people and essentially saying “my vote doesn’t matter”
I’m saying this not to be a dick, but because I care about my species - you sound like you’re in a very negative headspace and I’m not sure that’s going to be very valuable for you for much longer. You’re generalizing hundreds of thousands of people to one stereotype and assuming that any and all labor towards educating or advocating isn’t worth it.
Fuck that. Defeatist bullshit is for the defeated, and last I checked, battle is still going. I sincerely hope you are only affected by and not perpetuating defeatist logic into the global population.
No shit, thanks for the snarky comment but ig this is the kind of attention you wanted so here it is
The argument I was making was that SMS phishing has extremely high rates for hitting the majority of the population. Ai-powered phishing could be pretty dangerous but it’s got a higher barrier of entry for fraudsters.
That means limited real-world prevalence at this moment and an unaddressed commonality which is dangerous to most American people.
