good.

and if you're implying that i'm the problem, then by all means, come and get me. i'd love to give you a lesson in getting shit done.

yet here you are, trying to feel warm and fuzzy about your idealistic moral high ground.

ooo. somebody's looking to score some upvotes for their virtue signaling.

well, i'll tell ya what boss... how about you get out there and start killing nazi's then. otherwise you are one (by your own reasoning)

i'm not defending them. i'm just trying to temper your expectations. there's a lot of uproar of pikachu shocked face stuff. it's all symptoms of the illness. you will be slapping band aids on shit forever if you don't attack the root cause of the illness.

sometimes i think you all just want stuff to be outraged over. maybe you just like to post about it and get upvotes. maybe you just want to be part of an in-group.

does that assumption bother you? because it bothers me that you think i'm pro-capitalism just because i won't join in on your circle jerk.

look, if you're a soulless corporation just trying to deliver profits to shareholders, this is 100% the right move.

the problem is not refusing to go along with some meaningless gesture based in ignorant nationalism. the problem is that we live in capitalism, where the right move is always the one that delivers profits. decisions lacking humanity are always going to get made. focusing on this nothingburger just distracts from the bigger picture.

if you want results, destroy capitalism.

look, fuck google for many reasons, but not this. this is just keeping your head down and trying to survive the shit storm.

i think there are still people in power that actually believe in the merits this country was founded on and would stand up to pieces of shit like trump. it's the only thing i left i have to believe in.

i certainly have no reason to believe that the limp-wristed leftists of social media would ever stand up to anyone about anything.

i'm guessing altheahunter is a grateful dead reference. that's awesome. i'm an old deadhead too. as one to another, you can do better as a human being. the music is supposed to help teach a greater understanding.

how do we motivate them?

i'm just trying to help you understand the bigger picture. you don't have to get smarmy about it.

if you take your modern glasses off and understand it in context, it was actually pretty forward thinking despite its flaws.

it's all smoke and mirrors for "i have a gun. do what i say". the question inevitably is who has the gun?

i want to do than cross my fingers for this. i wonder what the proper channels really are.

they want a hierarchy and the freedom to enforce it. nothing else.

wanna live forever? do something memorable.

who's losses?

does no one else see the ethical quandary of relying on cheap exploited labor for our food?
