I think this goes well beyond just this movie. Humans seem highly vulnerable, especially when in groups, to thought-terminating cliches like this. I wonder how you fight against it?

There’s a rabid strain of environmentalism that’s downright anti-human. The only moral good is for us to do absolutely nothing/not exist. I can’t ever take those people seriously, vs people who see it as humanity’s role to be good stew

Ok? So make a redneck cringe compilation. I’m sure plenty of those exist on YouTube. Hell we have “idiots in cars #63767” going strong. The difference is powerful politically-connected groups don’t start hunting you down via insider basebal

I mean, in their defense some of what they shared was pretty far out there. This isn’t Bernie stuff, it’s furry red army level.

So my understanding is this is an account that simply reposts (unedited) hyper-liberal/leftist videos uploaded to tik tok? How exactly was this a problem? Meanwhile, the implications here are scary. If you’re truly wanting to be a soci

How did our corrupt, evil government force XYZ to happen? I’m sorry but your entire logical structure comes off as absurd to me. We have a fundamentally evil and absurd government, and you’re asking me how anyone was “forced” to do anything

Nah, you’re coping hard for the existing system. All the established players need to pay, deeply.

Paternalistic nonsense. I, not anyone else, need big daddy government to protect me. We are the dominant global power in decline, our recent excursion into the nanny state is evidence against not for your hypothesis.

_Yawn_. They caught a few small-fish bad guys. While I'm glad they're going down (from my limited information on the subject) this pales in comparison to the active harm the SEC perpetrates against the average joe on a daily basis

I've been saying this for a long time too. The VAST majority of stop-signs in the US should be replaced by yield signs. Also roundabouts are far superior, even many 4-way light intersections could be replaced with them.
