The ultimate “my body, my choice.” Guess Republicans will now favor gun control, after all.

I’m happy for them. They had the balls to finally rest in peace unlike me.

Maybe you can ask them to sell you an individual one or see if they give out free samples.

I can give you more current ones but they’re all from gun magazines, and I’m not sure if that’s allowed here. But I suggest you just google “ammunition prices rising” if you want to know.

Unless you prefer to keep your prejudiced opinion, I guess.

Late stage capitalism is alienating. Many people are faced with the reality that there’s little point to live when your only purpose is to be a wage slave for billionaires. There are no prospects of owning a home or being comfortable ever unless you’re born into wealth or willing to exploit others and put them into bad situations just so you can have a bit of comfort.

No, othering people is alienating. And this is by no means a partisan issue because almost everybody does it.

Democrats: “it’s the Republicans’ fault, they’re evil”
Republicans: “it’s the Democrats’ fault, they’re evil”
Communists: “it’s rich people’s fault, they’re evil”
Capitalists: “it’s poor people’s fault, they’re lazy”
Women: “it’s men’s fault, they’re evil”
Men: “it’s women’s fault, they’re evil”

The more you keep blaming other people for everything that’s wrong with the world, the more you end up isolating yourself and retreating into your own bubble. You might think things would be better if you only spend with people who think like you and who validate your complaints and feelings, but in fact, that only serves to increase your alienation because it increases the gap between you and those “others”.

It’s been about a quarter century since I’ve spent meaningful time with a billionaire, and I’d wager that few here have been that close. What does alienating ourselves from the world’s ~2,700 billionaires ,who already lock the world out and work to escape to other planets by explaining out why they’re the problem cost us, exactly?

Remember folks, don’t criticise Nazis - you’ll alienate yourself from them, and that’s bad.

And if you get behind, there’s the stigma among conservatives about getting a helping hand. Bootstraps and all that, it’s sad.
