Anyone that shits on this kids bravery can eat shit. When I was their age, I'd never have been as brave to speak out. Amazing.

I like making fun of zoomers as much as the next guy, but they definitely aren't afraid to speak their mind.

For real, I'll make fun of the hair cut and probably the vocabulary, but all the respect for a kid his age who goes and does that. They're not perfect, but neither was my generation, and I feel like I have faith in them.

Now, my kids are Gen A, and God help us all. Fortunately they're literal children, so they've got room to grow.

Oh, I am.

No ... they do want to protect kids ... they just never mention the fact that they want to only protect 'white children'

As in the mantra of the white nationalist creedo of the 14 words "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children"

14 ... which is often attached to the numbers ... 88 ... 8 symbolizing the 8th letter of the alphabet 'H', which spells out HH, short for Heil Hitler!

1488 = "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children, Heil Hitler!"

The funniest part is, let's imagine for a second they get their dream. Only white people left.

They'll IMMEDIATELY further sub-divide into finer in and out groups and start cannibalizing each other again. This will continue until there's one moron left.

100% it's almost like everyone has forgotten what happened with the Irish, the Italians, etc.

It's all a long historic pattern

Bacon's rebellion was the first rebellion in the North American colonies in which discontented frontiersmen took part. A somewhat similar uprising in Maryland involving John Coode and Josias Fendall took place in 1689. The alliance between European indentured servants and Africans (a mix of indentured, enslaved, and Free Negroes) disturbed the colonial upper class. They responded by hardening the racial caste of slavery in an attempt to divide the two races from subsequent united uprisings with the passage of the Virginia Slave Codes of 1705.

That's not to say this is all really about class warfare, but a lot of the leaders of our current political mess sure do have a lot of wealth.

No they only use the "protect the children" message to advance the surveillance state and control more people. These people don't give a shit about any children.

Fuck Dan Lyman. He’s a piece of shit. Sorry, not sorry.

neukenindekeuken@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 291d (3 replies)

Who is he

jballs@sh.itjust.works · 16 pts · 291d (1 reply)

A piece of shit, last I heard.

SethTaylor@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 291d

Don't know who the guy is but I too can confirm he's a piece of shit. I was there. I was in the next stall.

The nazis managed their coffers by grabbing money from “deplorables” and working them to death or just outright killing them. Does that strategy even work in the US? The average net worth of an immigrant is small. They’re making pennies on every deportation, if that. It makes no economic sense, let alone moral sense. Courting the favor of republicans is literally destroying the US.

The kid could quite possibly be a citizen.

LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 10 pts · 291d

If the parents are legal citizens I imagine he has to be. I know our immigration system is fucked but I can't see how parents of a minor coild become citizens and their minor not. (Or born here citizen kid).

Madison420@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 290d

Born here, he's a full citizen no matter how much the right wants to cry about it.

Kenny2999@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 291d

Well, that would protect him from the rampant pedos.

Fmstrat@lemmy.world · 15 pts · 290d

Its Twitter, so based on recent news there's a 66% chance the person replying isn't even in the US.

This is how you get radicalization.

Formfiller@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 290d (1 reply)

We’re already radicalized. We’re in Nazi land that’s as radical as it gets. We either fight back or die. They’re coming for all of us that get flagged by their unconstitutional mass surveillance monstrosity

I got permabanned from Reddit after 12 years and almost a million Karma. I'm on every list there is, and probably got a few dedicated specifically to me.

I figure I'm already screwed, so I'm already extremely radicalized.

henfredemars@infosec.pub · 7 pts · 291d

They want the kids for a very specific reason, and only certain ones.

Actually deport all non native Americans could be a good idea. Not sure their home countries want them either though

BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today · 5 pts · 290d

Deport to where? My family always thought they were pure Scots-Irish, and made fun of the French, until I did one of those DNA things and found out that half our family tree is from France. At least my Dad was gone before that revelation.

muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 290d

I mean that’s what got us into this mess.
