I’m talking way back

Egypt is the only way in but I guess they do what Israel says. Ironic given their history.

Your feelings are valid. I hope you find what you’re looking for.

EDIT: Please read about calling out vs calling in if you haven’t done so already: https://edib.harvard.edu/files/dib/files/calling_in_and_calling_out_guide_v4.pdf

You seem very frustrated. Let’s break it down.

1. Fox News used cancel culture and “wokeism” to get people fired up whether it was through lies or not.

2. Some people on the left were in fact aggressively calling people out on the right for their wrongdoings and condemning them.

3. These actions validated Fox News’ assertions of the left’s behavior and elicited fear and shame in people on the right who may feel targeted because of their racism and bigotry.

4. Donald Trump stood up for the people on the right when other presidential candidates on the left did not.

5. Donald Trump becomes a hero and is idolized partially due to being a savior to them during a time of “cancel culture”.

Where we might disagree is #2. If you believe that people were not being canceled and attacked, then no point going any further. That would be strange though since it sounds like you might be in favor of more aggressive approaches.

Don’t feed the machine. Be smart, compassionate and the hardest part is be patient.

Absolutely do that. Just don’t try to hurt people in an effort to change them. That doesn’t work unless your goal is also fascism.

I sense that you were personally offended by my comment. Apologies if you are using it for medicinal purposes. I am in no way condemning your behavior. You do what you need to do. Others abuse it. Hope you are healing or as comfortable as you can be with whatever you are treating with marijuana.

The overwhelming fanaticism was partly fueled by the aggressive response from the left. You yourself said it to be true because the media like Fox used it to get people fired up. If you’re denying that people on the left may have been overly aggressive in their condemnation of people on the right, then we will have to agree to disagree.

I understand your frustration, but you misinterpreted what I was saying. I’m not saying they weren’t racist or prejudiced before. I’m saying the revolution against them pushed them to look for a hero, and Trump is that. Some people on the left display a certain level of aggression that is not conducive to positive change. Just be smart and don’t be like the people you dislike.

Go do stuff. Just don’t be dumb. That’s all I’m saying.

I’m not talking about medicinal users. The overwhelming majority of people smoking weed are using it recreationally. Weird comment.

Thanks I’ll check it out!

EDIT: woah that shits expensive

He’ll try to do it if he can. Why wouldn’t he?

For those kids that survive, the trauma that they’ve endured is going to have massive repercussions on their adult lives. Like maybe growing up to start another group like Hamas? And the cycle continues.

Everybody should use a flower vaporizer like G Pen. Clean hits, low dose, and none of the crap that’s in concentrates.

Compared to what I even had when I was a kid as a millennial, these vape pens are wild. Dabbing all the time. It’s like casually taking shots of alcohol. There is such thing as marijuana abuse and even addiction.

But is that favoring genocide or just avoiding conflict?

I think you misunderstand me. I’m not suggesting complacency, just a focused approach that doesn’t exacerbate the issue. The more divided we are, the more power we lose, and that goes for all political parties. Both sides profit off of our hatred and fear towards each other.

We need action. 100%. I’m just saying be smart about it. If violence is the answer, so be it, but you have to go all in and you have to win.

A lot of the reason Trump fanatics exist is because it’s a reaction to the “woke movement”. People got some validation and ran with it, spreading hate for ignorance instead of teaching tolerance. People need to feel heard and just like Hitler, Trump is the leader of those who feel ignored.

The hard part for most is patience. Real change takes time, unless you want to be a fascist on the opposite side of the spectrum. Either way works, but at the end of the day a fascist is a fascist is a fascist.

I’m not saying it wasn’t a setup by people on his side, but the “assassination attempt” made this person a hero. Like I said, unless you’re gonna go all the way, everything else is fuel for the fire, and it can grow slowly leaving time to put it out, or it can blow up.

Good point. We’ll have to see if the Supreme Court has any authority. Justice unfortunately takes a long time, especially at the executive level.

Anger quickly gets out of control. Especially en masse. You do what you gotta do. All of your feelings are valid.
