Little angel who left too soon.

Whether this argument is pulled by politicians or you, it sounds dumb to me.
Nevertheless, I can live with the fact that some people have different opinions than mine. Accepting that people might get shot for seeking spiritual guidance, on the other hand, I find hard to swallow.

This is apologetic garbage. Nobody forced this guy to do anything. Whatever the country, whatever the religion, shooting someone who is praying is both gutless and inhumane.

I'd rather blame the guy pulling the trigger. And the trash-for-brains who glorify him on the internet.

Dude I assume that you know by now that I lean left.

I understand the injustice about the bashing, I understand that this is unfair, it really is, just like this girl who got condemned to community service in the UK for sharing rap lyrics of her deceased BF favourite track containing the N-word, which I think you shared recently. It definitely is mega-dumb and unjust.

But you are an intelligent person, you HAVE to know that all this lingo, "woke", "radical leftists" etc are just punchlines, talking points, as are "fascist", "nazi" and such. The goal of these terms is to get people to think that there is one reasonable side, and one oppressive side.

When it comes to mass manipulation, I am more worried about the polarization of political speech, which pitches reasonable people of both sides of the aisle against one another. It's not the good democratic leftists vs the nazi racists right wingers, nor the freedom-craving partiotic traditionalists vs the tyrannical woke feminists.

We can talk about freedom of speech, we can talk about abortion rights, we can talk about immigration policy, end of life, environment, whatever. But every time I read "woke radical leftists", it's a little harder for me to listen. And I'm sure you feel the same when people talk about "fascist antisemitic nazis".

I like you, you make fun posts, and you are always on for a debate. But I also think you can't win by triying to "open people's eyes" : If you wanna change people's minds, you first have to listen.

I didn't want to call you out on anything ! You seem like a very chill and empathetic person, just wanted to offer a different perspective !
Maybe marital life is not for her, but still, the fancy ceremony with the gound and the flowers and everything is a little girls dream she wants to fulfill, and it's good fun.
But she also might just be coping with the sad truth that she badly wants to get married and can't find anyone, i don't know !

Obviously it's ridiculous to be prosecuted for something someone else sent.
But if I were to be the devil's advocate (which I love), I would argue that as a public servant, it's normal to be under more scrutiny than if you were only a regular citizen. Also pretty dumb to use official accs to share memes.

Idk dude, people dress up like wizards and pretend they're wizards with their friends to have a good time, but can't be wizards. Is this sad too ?
