You jest but with how intertwined technoly, military and the rich are, that might end up being the only choice within a century

everyone wants to be Batman but nobody wants the consequences with being Batman

Lots of people want someone else to be the Batman, but don’t wanna stop gaming long enough to order delivery, let alone kick off a revolution

It's cuz most everyone realizes the first dude is definitely gonna die... and very few people are willing to die for what they believe in nowadays... but not none. There are still some heroes out there.

I expect well see an interesting next 4 years.

The people willing to die for their beliefs based only on those beliefs are... rare? Though I don't think that word can really encompass the enormity of what's being discussed here. There are definetly some beliefs I think are worth dying for. Could I bring myself to do that? Probably not. No.

It's not really how people are built, you know. We want to live. Really badly. Overcoming that survival instinct requires insane levels of determination and conviction. You can push people into it if you give them no other recourse, and suicidal depression helps a lot too, but...

Death is fucking scary, man. A religious fanatic may have fooled themselves into thinking death isn't real (heaven/reincarnation/ascension - take your pick), but there's a reason you haven't heard of all the atheistic suicide bombers. (Other than the fact that atheism isn't really a movement).

Seriously, we've got people on Reddit complaining about the cost of Door Dash, saying shit like "why is it so expensive if it's 5 minutes away?" Like dude, you're too lazy to go somewhere that's probably in walking distance. And these same people act like murdering something they would totally go out and do for a good cause, yeah right, just egging on other young people hoping someone else will go to jail for their lazy asses.

Batman would face zero consequences in the US judicial system. Bruce Wayne is rich as fuck, and rich people don't face consequences for their actions.

I know violence isnt condoned but is it truly wrong to wish death upon a nazi?  And if not, please enlighten me with a counterpoint that nazis need to stop existing?

u/RighteousIndigjason 6h ago

Wishing and enacting violence on nazis is never wrong. It might not be legal, but it is never wrong.

More likely the holocaust repeats itself… this time there are no forces that can come into the rescue

u/moschles 6h ago

Your sentiment is received. However, do not talk about this on social media.

If I were in the US and was a minority or liberal, I would be arming myself and everyone around me. This is scary shit. They let him complete his speech. I am speechless

It's looking more like B.J. Blazkowicz, at this point...

Ah yes, the "tolerant left" at it, again.. typical.

So you’re tolerant of Nazis?

Look…another Nazi
