Maybe they just want a future where billionaires aren't burning down the planet.
Course they could pick up pitchforks and take matters into their own hands. Quit blaming other people for their problems right?
If i where to agree with your argument then the wokes would do the only thing they can and ban me for my speach cos that would be advocating for violence. That being said i stand by my argument of they shpuld take action to achieve their goals and quit whining blaming everyone else.
By "Take action" do you mean building a gallows outside the Capital for the Vice President, and assaulting police officers in order to trespass and interfere with the results of an election that nobody has been able to find evidence of fraud?
Is that the kind of "taking action" that will make people earn equality?
At what point have people suffered enough that they deserve to be treated with respect? What action have YOU taken to deserve any of the rights you currently enjoy?
I dont agree with them but they certainly took someone effective action. Imagine if a climate protest executed the american VP do u think any pro oil world leader would ever feel as though they and their family is safe ever again? I dont support this but it seems u should read a little about the french revolution. My ancestors got my rights for me back when we owned all the land.
How was it effective? People were injured and killed over a lie. No fraud was revealed, no elections were overturned. It was the opposite of effective, there were costs to everyone involved and ABSOLUTELY NOBODY GOT ANYTHING OUT OF IT.
Ok, so YOU did nothing to earn your rights. Why do you expect other people to have to fight hard enough to earn your approval before THEY deserve the same rights you were handed at birth?
Ur talking about it so it was effective at something.
I never said they didnt deserve rights i think all people deserve equall rights. I simply think if u have an issue go do somthing more than blame everyone else for ur problems.
And I simply think that if people are asking for help, we should see if there's a way we can help, and even if we can't, we should at the very least not complain about how annoying it is to constantly hear the whining and suffering of others.
However, if they start murdering and looting, THEN they will have your respect?
If all ur doing about ur issues is whining then u probably are going to continue to suffer. My whole point is stop whining go do somthing.
I dont respect anyone who hasnt earned it. Murdering and looting worked for the french.
Don't take this too personally, but you're an asshole.
You don't have to be that way, but as of right now that's the path you've chosen.
Why? Well, if you're truly an asshole, you don't care why, but if you aren't...
People are suffering around the world, and I'm not unrealistic, I know we can't fix everything, we're just regular people. But you're not just apathetic, you're going out of your way to complain about them wanting dignity and respect. How dare those people ask for respect! They should be out sowing chaos and bringing MORE misery to others. Of course, you don't do these things, you never had to, but the unfortunate ones must prove to you that they deserve to exist, by doing things that you WISH you had the balls to do. Evil doesn't destroy evil. Be better, nobody respects your macho edgelord bullshit. You sound like a child. Stick with playing Minecraft, and let the adults work on the real world.
Im definitely an asshole but i am a reasonable one. I didnt chose to be this way it chose me when you decided my opinions made me an asshole. Yeah people around thw world are suffering of real significant issues. Tuberculosis killed 4000 people yesterday to put that into perspective the entirety of israel Palestine total deaths since October 7th is slightly more than 2 weeks worth or tuberculosis deaths. Tuberculosis is a curable disease i donate money to help cure it for people around the globe. Its called perspective people are fucking dying of a curable disease and u wanna complain about identity politics bullshit.
I and Just Stop Oil are glad of your support and understanding.
Research has shown that just stop oil is achieving its goals very effectively.
So you will continue to complain while doing nothing?
