WTF are you contributing, exactly? Put up or STFU and let yourself feel a fleeting moment of hope, FFS. 🖕🏼
It’s okay this guy is miserable - kept making comments on other Portland posts too about the naked cyclists. Clearly just jealous.
You are complicit in ethnic cleansing and you demand adulation for showing nips?
Where exactly can you point out my personal complicity?
Clearly you’re just a troll. That’s why you troll around these chats and post nothing but anger and hostility in your comments, demanding people do more but giving no real solutions on what they should be doing, all while you yourself do nothing but berate others online. It’s pathetic and makes me consider you nothing more than a paid Russian propaganda machine.
All this does is show how miserable you are in your own life.
Because you advocate for ineffectual solutions against brutal violence. You want to know a fun fact about Gandhi? He offered medical assistance to the soldiers of the British Empire. Pacifism in the face of evil is bad enough, but browbeating people and sucking all the air out of the room with disgusting antics is complicity. Don't bother trying to hide it, because the double standards of when liberals choose to roll over and show their belly and when they hiss and scratch is pretty goddamn clear!
You can't articulate why this should give anyone hope, all you can do is scold them.
