See picture.
Stop waiting for perfect. Good change happens over time it’s rarely immediate. If you wait for perfect you’re liable to miss people doing enough good to allow perfect to happen later.
People are nuanced and we don’t live in a black and white world. Hillary. Kamala. Gavin. Obama. None of them are perfect but they’re on the path there.
People need to stop being so pious around their politics.
The counter point is don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.
As do many who come from nothing or have nothing.
I’m thankful as a Canadian I came from meagre beginnings and my dad was a post-war baby in bombed our London. I have first hand experience in knowing what nothing is.
Let it burn.
But will it make things better? Worse?
“the commons” has largely been privatized online. That is the result of what you have stated.
We should all be ashamed, and afraid.
It really frustrates me as a non-American that they don’t get it. As a general human being he is disgusting. This is who, on a world stage, they feel represents them.
Are they so dumb that they don’t realize, or so self-indulgent they don’t care? Either is scary.
I want to highlight again (I have numerous times in the past) as a human being this is who Americans said they were ok with. Forget policy. Forget politics. Americans twice have elected a man who openly thinks women are less than men.
I’ve seen enough rumours I am genuinely curious if they were eating kids. Reading between the lines they were doing something extremely fucky.
We back to the 80’s baby!
I’ve dated non American Christians. When I tell them I’m agnostic they more than understand my relationship with God is personal but I do have one. I wish Americans could understand this
There is such a huge difference between American Christians and global Christians. If you’re American all that good you’re missing is by and large in the global Christians because by and large the global Christians come from poverty. What America has done to Christianity is disgusting.
I mean I’m stirring shit because the former is actually useful but java and JavaScript are both shit so they’re not wrong.
My main job is supporting ServiceNow. I understand JavaScript now far more than I should. It’s a garbage “language”.
Say what you will but that fucker loves them OLD lol
I appreciate them saying this but NDP need to get their own house in order.
Be the change you want to see then?
I’m in Canada but also a very diverse group of people around me at all times. I make it very clear with everyone that politics aside, I have all their backs regardless of race, colour or creed. Differences are what makes us stronger not weaker and anyone who is afraid of differences shows themselves as weak.
Let’s be honest. Knowing American history this fits. Of course it’s just a group of thugs. That’s what America is. There’s no organization. It’s just hate.
I do respect how being spit on is how respect is defined. - RTJ
I hear you and I want to acknowledge that people are complex and many otherwise good people are caught in these echo chambers doing or supporting bad things.
That said, it’s no fucking excuse to not educate yourself and stay up on the news.
