Geheimtipp: Aufhören in Hotels zu gehen. Besonders die mit Animateuren. Geh in Unterkünfte, die von locals geführt werden. Und Besuch die Gegenden richtig. Dann lernst du die Menschen auch wirklich kennen.

The solution is a Multi-Party system with coalition and then compromise out of a position of power. We need to accept that in almost all societies the real left are a minority. Humans don’t like the socialist ideas even if it benefited then Right now because they dream of escaping poverty and to then be better than others. If we destroyed the class system they’d have no chance to some day be better than other people. I believe this drive to get ahead is part of human nature and only few are able to fight it and think in the benefit of the whole.

So there are 2 options:

1. Is a revolution, violent and ends in establishing an authoritarian government forcing your beliefs on the majority of people which kinda goes against my democratic beliefs and the right of freedom

2. Go into politics. In europe it would be voting very left and gain enough votes to join a coalition to make the centrists enable more and more socialist policies. This worked very well in some countries like early Germany, netherlands and a big portion of Scandinavian countries. In America basically the only option would be to join the democratic party and advocate socialist policies from within like Bernie sanders is trying for example. Vote more left in the primaries to try and gain influence.

After that when it comes down to voting either of the 2 parties though you probably need to accept the current majority in the democratic party in order to not enable far right.

The time to go more left is between big elections and from within. In big elections like the upcoming its time to set differences aside and unify for the lesser evil.

Never forget that a democracy is a rule of the majority of the population and not a rule of the best policies from your perspective. If you think: Fuck the majority, this is how the country should be run, you are not democratic.

This of course disregards the influence powerful people take in politics which is another topic and way more complicated.

“I respect christians who don’t force their views on me”

No, you don’t. You just prefer not to be reminded that you’re living in sin.

Everybody preaching thinks, everyone must adhere to their personal moral beliefs. They don’t.

And we are not advocating veganism by antagonizing people. That just makes YOU feel better about yourself and doesnt help the animals at all. If you actually care about animal well-being you will set your ego aside and try to actually convince the carnivores by being a good example and adapting your arguments.

I always point out that I will not discuss the morals of killing animals because it’s difficult for a lot of people. I will go on the level how our society treats the animals before killing them. Almost noone is arguing about that. And I’ve convinced a lot of people that way to at least drastically reduce their meat consumption. The rest will come later.

Isn’t it about reducing animal suffering in the world in total? It should be. Making everyone be vegan in no time at all is unrealistic. We are reducing global meat consumption by emphatically making people question their choices and not by antagonizing them. They’ll just get defensive and mock us.

Just look around here. Most of the people here are part of the hate club. Constantly you see posts wishing the worst and horrible deaths on the people they disagree with or who commit crimes/do horrible shit/are rich, and they are being celebrated. ACAB, Trump should off himself, eat the rich, celebrating people drowning on their yachts… But hey, it’s not hate speech if you are on a moral high ground right? Most people here probably agree, that prisons are for suffering, just that so often the wrong people are suffering.

America needs a functioning justice system and people abusing their power is horrible. But you need to fight it by enforcing a system and punishments according to a set of laws. There is no emotion or revenge in justice.

Delete because better response already written in meantime

The US will never stop supporting Israel. They are too dependent on it geopolitically. I believe we may see some more inner political movement against Netanjahu supported by certain US agencies. He will not survive this conflict as prime minister. This will of course not help Palestinians in the long run but it may help with a ceasefire and as a result help the democrats in the upcoming election which would be the main goal right now.

The idea of this super moderated availability of books sounds super great when you write it out like that. But there aren’t even enough teachers around to teach the bare minimum. I don’t know how you imagine that would be manageable.

Side point. If Mein Kampf should be accessible, do you think so should all the hate speech and misinformation everyone tries to ban from social media ?

I mean. Prisoners of war rarely committed any actual crimes right? And I can definitely imagine the Nazis using that term in official documents. Would be stupid otherwise. I think there is a book, the bureaucracy of murder, that talks about those euphemismic language in brutal states. I can also imagine some officers in those camps actually being concerned with feeding the people (or handling the other prisoners watching their comrades die of hunger), just not out of empathy. And finally, it’s just really stupid to take those letters and make a case for the Holocaust being an accident, wtf.

Can someone develop a tool that automatically screens TOS and small print for apps and warns you of agreeing to shit like this?

The court doesn’t give a shit, though. Look at what’s happening with the international court.

Oh, and also, the police is supporting me with weapons to fuck you up if you try to chase me from your lawn.
