@cavepainter1@Parody_Nermal@maklelan@LedAshtray Yes, which is why things like the crusades happened or any evil thing that people have done in the name of the bible. Mean to be Christian? There is no reason, you’re just a believer in a number of religions. What does it mean to be Taoist or Hindu?
@kelly_bankk I got a better idea. How about explaining to them that some of those diamonds were dug up by kids just like them—kids who get hurt or even die doing it. That those chains aren’t cool. They’re built on pain. And that no one should wear someone else’s suffering like jewelry.
Warning: Marines are trained killers. We do it well. We do not have a stellar reputation for our de-escalation techniques even tho we are disciplined. Be careful when you issue orders to us. Oh, and feed us or we get angry.
@GalaxyPeaBrain average lib video: progressive Marine shaking his head in disgust at how JD Vance holds a gun
average conservative video: what it would look like if we had a TV network exclusively for pit bulls to watch
I, for one, would love to see a return to extravaganza cinema extolling the virtues of the West. A return of great Roman Empire flicks, Crusader movies, classic American Westerns, good crime and action movies without the virtue guff, versions of fantasy & sci-fi books focused on brilliant writing and acting. This is the stuff I’d like to see with yourself, Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise, @ginacarano and others in, funded by entrepreneurs like @elonmusk or @JeffBezos. That’s what people are crying out for.
I have to do this constantly. It is all coming straight from their mouths, but you sound like a lunatic repeating it to people not following these psychos.
I had to stop myself today when talking to a coworker about how they plan to instate techno feudalism after they demolish the federal government. I had like a moment where I realized just how fucked I sounded.
@esjesjesj Everyone should watch the only good adaptation of Stalenhag's work Tales From The Loop on Prime. Amazing show. Came out years ago and I think about it weekly.
