This is such a crazy timeline. Everyone knows our president is an ephebophile (pedo into teens). He has flat out stated it. No one is unaware of this fact anymore.
And yet we live in a system where good people are being deported or tortured in prison camps. We can't have government that actually works because our laws are so fucked up that good people get hurt while we all know a pedo rapist is running the country.
It's time we realize as a species that this world is ran by pure evil. We need to begin responding differently. I don't know what that means, but even after a revolution there are still charismatic psychos that come along and fuck shit up again. People are just too dumb and fall for it over and over and over. How many times does this process need to be repeated before we evolve as a species?
It is that damn moral highground the left wants to stick to. They will shoot themselves in the foot over and over and while bleeding out ask "what could we have done?"
There no longer is a slippery slope. Outlaw the shit republicans do and lock them the hell up. Cuz you know what, they are tryinging their hardest to do the same.
Obviously that is the correct step in the interim. But how do we prevent this repeating over and over?
honestly i don't know if humans can.
when you look at stories of (semi)utopian societies there is this drive in nearly all people to be good to a fault. people want to work and learn and do things for the betterment of society. real humans will find a way to be shitty no matter how good they are.
i think the only way to get things to work is to define a good but rigid stance on all thing shitty. shame the fuck out of stupid religous and political views. anti science and anti facts should cause your voice to be silenced. this wave of stupidity and hate needs to be treated like cancer.
Heads need to roll over and over again
He is into 13 year olds. 13 year olds are not 'teens'. Yes, I know how 13 is pronounced. He's still a pedo.
i'm just using the technical term.
