 they vandalize synagogues and kick people when they're down because it's
 practice for them.
 
 they practice what they preach.
 
 leftists don't really preach about killing nazis. we're too human for that.

 leftists: social media is bad guys, and here's why: [insert perfectly valid
 reason, of which there are many possibilities]
 
 leftists: watch me be an exemplar who practices what they preach
 
 [nobody sees them because they aren't on social media anymore and people don't
 know how to make friends IRL anymore preferring instead to speak into a void

 it's exhausting, but what are we supposed to do? Lie down and rot? That's
 incel thinking. I'm not going to do that.
 
 They've already placed the last straw. It's only a matter of time now, the
 tide has shifted. You can't prepare for everything, and it's not a good idea
 to waste yourself in self-conflageration, but they are increasingly forcing us
 to orient our lives around them.
 
 They deserve what's coming.
 
 The oppressed are not the defeated.

 that's totally fine, a fish does not do well in a tree, and so too does a
 leftist not do well in an environment without the potential for stable bonds.
 Essentially all you'd be able to do is "hey leftism right?" "oh yes I also
 leftism" "neat" which isn't very productive.
 
 I also live in an environment like that. I do my best to identify people who
 stay, because in my experience there are often people who stay. I do this by
 walking around the neighborhood when I can, making up excuses to walk to the
 dumpster or mailbox at random hours, riding my bike around the area, using the
 communal spaces like gyms, swimming pools, and picnic tables, and sitting in
 my hammock on my porch lazily noting people who walk past.
 
 People who stay will tend to remain in your mind the more times you see them.
 They are better people to talk to than the renters who disappear after 3
 months or whatever.
 
 I don't always do all that stuff at once. I take breaks. I do one at a time.

  I wanna say something to people who work in tech-related jobs in America: this is still a field where most people hate the rise of fascism and want to stop it. I know the media & amplification of the tycoons makes it seem like that’s the whole industry. But it’s not. And we still have power.

 He's an accomplice to mass murder
 
 Democracy only works when the losers in an election consent to be governed by

 He did not consent, and his followers did not consent.
 
 They are enemies of democracy.
 
 They are fascists, for many reasons besides.
 
 They seek to be the end of us,

 all my leftist friends are paralyzed because it feels like they're alone.
 
 why do they feel alone? where is the... everyone else?
 
 why are they alienated? I can't help but think to the large protests the
 liberals attend and fight for. where are those? is everyone just... too tired
 these days?
 
 maybe that's why they gave us a biden presidency. /sigh
 
 is anyone ACTUALLY a liberal these days or are we all still stuck on the idea
 that there's fewer leftists than fascists? I don't believe that's true, I
 never believed that's true, but now they've got the guns.
