  • It truly is the way too many enthusiasts on any topic think.

    Like they can’t fathom the idea that other people are focused on other things despite this being 100% the reason humans were able to create what we have.

    If humans all focused on the exact same things, we’d have a very narrow scope and much less innovation.

    It’s why its so hard to find good advice.

    You go to a cooking subreddit, and they’d have you thinking that unless you knew every artisinal craftsman shop in your area (your local butcher, your local baker etc etc), you must not know food, and that you need 400 dollar pans to get utility out of your cookware when literally just a common stainless steel set would do you just fine, and even if you had to replace it 20 times, it still wouldnt be the cost of the more expensive one.

    People live in their own bubbles and expect that everyone else not only could but should meet them where they are in their bubble, rather than realizing that guess what, food is just to eat for most people, not some passion they want to dedicate multiple hours a day to.


  • part of it is that the working class, poor to people who incorrectly think they’re middle class included, basically everyone who is not ownership class (where owning things is the primary means of making them money), utterly fail to organize, and sometimes actively work against their own interests (like the “lets make a third party!” morons, the “I am morally superior for not voting” morons, and or course the actively malicious “I let the billionaires tell me that them fucking me was actually brown people’s fault” morons.


  • The most important thing is to first have a governing body that governs the police, without being police.

    Without this, nothing here matters because they haze, and brutalize those who do not conform to their awful internal group standards.

    You can literally see what happens to good cops. They get forced out.

    The problem with your post, is that you can’t help someone who does not want to be helped.

    Ideally that type of person would be kicked out of the force, but instead they comprise of the majority of these forces.

    Just to be clear, many if not most agencies have mandatory psych evals, visits etc after different types of incidents, but as you can see, they just don’t solve the problem.




  • They cannot.

    The republican party is complicit, and supports the evil he does, and more than that, he commands their supporters, so it would be political suicide for them.

    Why can’t the democrats? The republicans control all 4 parts of government and even if they had control over the senate, they would need 60% of the votes, a number that is unprecedented in recent times.
