  • The Republicans should never have gone down this road in the first place.

    I think this is the crutch of our disagreement. My question to you is why? The Republicans want power. They want to turn the US into a Free Market Theocracy. Why shouldn’t they do what they are doing? I personally think what they are doing is bad, but why should they care?

    Getting mad at the Democrats for not being good enough to stop that is akin to victim blaming.

    I am more interested in your response to my first point, but I couldn’t let this stand. It’s such a bad comparison. Both the Dems and Republicans are fighting for power, they are not a victim and an aggressor, they are both aggressors.

    Do you blame the thief, or do you blame the homeowner for not having better locks?

    I blame the police for not arresting the thief when they revealed their plans to rob my house before they robbed it.


  • I don’t think you understand. No reasonable person thinks that republicans are good or not to blame. Blaming the republicans won’t stop them from taking power. They have done and continue to do what they have said they will do and the Democratic party has done nothing to stop them.

    It’s like your sky diving, and your parachute fails to open. Do you get upset at gravity or the guy who packed your parachute? Yeah, gravity is what is going to kill you, but it doesn’t care, that was the plan. The guy who packed the parachute is your only real way of controlling the situation.

    The Democratic Party packed the parachute and it isn’t opening. Hopefully it does soon.












  • If they do it right, you won’t even notice or feel like you have no choice to buy something.

    They want to know you better than you know yourself. I doubt they would be interested in any information you would provide because it would be useless compared to what they can get.

    Most of the phyc research is done by large companies to crack all our brains open so we open our wallets.

    You’re probably depressed because that is what they want you to be. So you maximize screen time for adds and purchases.


  • Get mad. Slowly diying while depressed and high is what they want you to do. They set up the system for you to suffer like this. It gives them power and money and they don’t give two shits about you.

    Maybe you can’t win. But you can at least be a massive thorn in their side before you go. If you can’t take them down, setup others to take them down. Maybe not this generation, but the next.

    Don’t forget to enjoy your life when you can. Without pain, there is no joy.

    Who is “they”? You have to find out for yourself. Start by trying to figure out who is benefiting from your suffering. Keep asking questions. Try to make sense of the world. You’re doing good so far.

    This right here is why the Linux community needs to pick a single desktop that just works for people who are switching over for gaming purposes.

    Yeah, having the choice of multiple Distros is great from a technical perspective. But most people forgot what it was like on Windows.

    Gamers are not interested in distro hopping on their first time attempt to get Linux to work.

    If we’re going to say that a benefit of Linux is the multiple distros to a new person, you had better warn them that some distros are not as easy to work with as others. Looking at the cool desktop pictures on the website is not a sign that a distro is easy to work with.
