  • Muslims need to sack up and realize there’s a lot of Muslims out there that are creepy. It’s up to you as a stand up Muslim to call these creepy Muslims out when they act up. Normal people don’t owe you anything, you stand up for them because it’s the right thing to do, and not because you want acceptance.

    Our goal should be to resist and overcome those harmful instincts. That’s kinda the purpose of ethics/morality

    Whereas her “art” seems to encourage us to give into our base impulses of vindictiveness, scorn, petty jealousy, grudges, etc.

    Not a very Christlike role model. Which is ironic given the protestant religious/cultural upbringing of much of her fanbase










  • Maybe a country built on genocide and slavery is a bad idea that can’t ever be fixed.

    Agreed, but replacing the United States with a new state, one created with a Constitution 2.0 so to speak, would likely be sufficient if executed properly.

    Fundamentally though, we need to remove the current ownership class from power and instead place power within the working class. Oligarchs cannot exist if a society is to be free from fascism


  • But incremental change will not ever fix our problems, not even if Biden-style dems are elected consecutively for the next 100 years.

    Our very system is a threat to the living standards of normal Americans because our system has been taken over by billionaires/oligarchs. Therefore, the only way to fix it is structural change. Incrementalism is inherently insufficient. And a belief in incrementalism is a refusal to fully acknowledge the scale and scope of the problem.

    Trump is popular because our system is rotten and is designed to empower the ownership class at the expense of the working class. Until that precise issue is resolved, we will never be nationally secure from domestic fascism



  • You’re saying it’s valid and good for her to worry about stalkers. You are not saying the same about Elon. This is purely because she is a woman and he is a man. This is sexism.

    Women are not delicate flowers who need to be protected. Men are not tough monsters who do not need protecting.

    Billionaires are destructive enemies of humanity - gender doesn’t affect that analysis
