    Until we actually create post-scarcity luxury gay space communism, there is always someone who is at least somehow motivated to do some crimes. And when there are easy murdermachines lying around, that motivation just gets married with opportunity.
    Your loaded language betrays your deep gun-related motivation so I don’t think you will actually hear me, but I will try to convey this anyway. Improving the lives of 99% of the population necessarily will have to include strict gun control, it is impossible without it, and it’s one of the prerequisites. Not the first one, not even top 5 maybe, but it’s up there.

    It’s not even about how you protest, it’s about what you use protests for. You can have the best protest ever, longest strike imaginable, whatever. If you don’t have the organisation to have coherent changes and then act upon them, nothing matters. No kings, huh? What if by a stroke of magic, Trump gets scared of your rally and tries to appease the public or whatever. What’s the terms? No kings. Well, he’s not a king, he’s the president. Problem solved, continue as you were.




  • In US? Unless you’re very lucky with location, and 99% aren’t, you can’t ride a bike anywhere, it’s dangerous and there are stroads everywhere. You can’t see their friends in real life because there is no place to gather, and nobody is doing that anyway. Kids are talking to each other on various internets and talking in memes the pick up online. You can’t even socialise with non-technology freaks and wonabe amish, they’re all home schooled.
    It’s slightly different in other, more developed countries. But even then, not being able to connect with your peers on discord will cost the kid a bunch of socialising points, and make their social life that much harder (up to impossible) for no reason.
    And that’s just social life, I’m not even talking about the fact that you practically taking away any prospect of a good employment rising them like that.
    Maybe talk to your kids once in a while so they don’t want to seek connection with 30 year old maga predators on the internet as a crude replacement for personal connection, instead of locking them up in a tower.
