This guy will rot in jail if he done it as he should
No one is free to go about and shoot ppl just like that.
Everyone supporting this is extremely disgusting human being with zero decency and not even deserving an argument
Next time your grandma will be shot because someone felt obliged to do some childish social justice and felt like a hero
Seriously to hell with this clown and life sentence is just about right
His supporters are even worse because you once were meant to be better than this.
Idealistic tolerant and decent people that turned out to be a bunch of blood yearning kids with failure of a parents that still somehow think of themselves as a heroes in their own story
I do not care about some kind of murderer doing their things as there are plenty enough and always will be someone. I grieve over my loss of illusion with the internet leftists that wholly failed any and all expectations.
They are clearly spergs AND billionaires. It looks like such a combination is especially not photogenic
What is funny here, in this post, is their autistic traits and media clumsiness that is so characteristic for rich neurodivergents (as non rich people generally are not in any media obviously)
Hence the post focuses on the spectrum traits and it will be discussed from such angle naturally if we see them
If they were some poor autistic sob from Andalusia then we just would have to rein in our remarks but for billionaires itâs a free game to harass them for any reason. Thatâs what we agreed upon
Therefore we harass them for autistic displays in media as it is very easy but we must pretend that this is not autism to stay coherent in our moral righteousness and not evoke cognitive dissonance
I never said I am smart. I just want him to be done one way or another because this whole thing is embarrassing to watch. Letâs lock him up already, he looks like he did it. You can read it on his eyebrows
Imagine u release him and then he is going to start campaigning as some politician, my god. That alone is worth little injustice to avoid the potential cringe. Plant what you have to plant and save us from seeing that
Anything to avoid months of redditors sperging over this guy in the most insufferable of ways
If they had to lock u up then it is tiny bit more than addressing a behaviour donât you think?
Not only that but you allowed yourself to be caught on your turf, probably betrayed by your own family member who snitched on you. Then you were stripped of rights for some time as someone unable to make basic decisions about themselves.
No matter how you look at it it isnât a good look
Itâs the same when call of duty makes kids yearn to go to Ukraine combat zone. Pure insanity right here. Imagine some innocent farmer hearing some city dweller be like âI played this game stardew valley you knowâ
I really hope he goes to jail at this point regardless if he did it or not.
I am tired of hearing about this over and over again. It was entertaining like for a week maximum
An individual can have a meaningful impact by focusing on consistent, strategic actions that plant progressive seeds in their community, shift narratives, and build long-term power:
1. Shift Mindsets (The Battle of Ideas)
Talk to people outside your bubble.
Most political change happens through personal relationships. Have calm, empathetic conversations with coworkers, family, or neighborsâfocus on shared values (e.g., "Everyone deserves healthcare" vs. "Medicare for All").
Use the "deep canvassing" method: Ask questions, listen, and share personal stories (studies show this changes minds better than facts).
Combat disinformation passively.
Share positive progressive content (e.g., worker victories, policy successes) rather than endlessly debunking right-wing lies (which spreads them further).
Use humor/memes (e.g., "Dark Brandon," "Unionize Your Starbucks")âemotion beats logic in viral messaging.
Be a "bridge" for normies.
Avoid jargon ("abolish ICE," "ACAB")âreframe issues in accessible terms (e.g., "Accountable policing" or "Fair immigration rules").
2. Build Institutional Power
Join or support an existing group.
Local: Unions, tenant unions, mutual aid networks, DSA chapters, progressive religious groups.
Key: Consistency matters more than bursts of activism. Attend meetings, volunteer skills (writing, design, organizing).
Disrupt right-wing networks.
Support/watchdog groups (e.g., Bellingcat, Accountable Tech) that expose extremism.
Pressure platforms to deplatform hate (e.g., mass-reporting violent content).
Run for somethingâor help someone who does.
School boards, city councils, and state legislatures are where the right gained power. Groups like Run for Something train progressives to win locally.
3. Daily Actions (Small but Scalable)
Voter work:
Register voters (especially young people) at concerts, fairs, or campuses.
Volunteer as a poll worker (critical to combat right-wing "election fraud" narratives).
Money as a weapon:
Donate to progressive candidates in swing districts (even $5 helps).
Boycott/support businesses aligned with your values (e.g., unionized stores).
Skill-sharing:
Offer your professional skills (coding, graphic design, legal help) to grassroots groups.
4. Psychological Warfare (Against the Right)
Deny them attention.
Stop quote-tweeting Tucker Carlson or Ben Shapiroâit feeds their algorithm. Mock or ignore instead.
Starve their propaganda: Share alternatives (e.g., left-wing podcasts, Substacks).
Flip their tactics:
Use their nostalgia against them (e.g., "Real patriots tax the rich like FDR").
Co-opt their symbols (e.g., "Make America Kind Again").
5. Protect Your Mental Health
Avoid burnout. The right thrives on outrage exhaustion. Limit doomscrolling; focus on actionable wins.
Celebrate small victories. Every union formed, every voter registered weakens the far rightâs grip.
Most Important Rule:
Be the "water" (persistent, adaptable, everywhere), not the "rock" (rigid, easily avoided).
The right wins by being relentless; the left must out-persist them.
1. Violence is a Losing Game Against Nazis/Far Right
Attempting to out-violence or out-escalate hardened extremists is futile. The far right often thrives on street fights, militarized posturing, and martyrdom. Engaging them on their terms risks legitimizing their narrative (e.g., "leftist mobs") and alienating the broader public.
Alternative: Focus on asymmetric tacticsâlegal, cultural, and institutional strategies that undermine their influence without playing into their strengths. Examples:
Deplatforming: Removing their access to social media, financial systems, and public spaces (e.g., what worked against the Proud Boys post-January 6).
Counter-mobilization: Mass nonviolent protests (e.g., labor strikes, voting drives) that dwarf their numbers.
Intelligence and preemption: Monitoring and disrupting extremist networks (e.g., antifascist research groups like Bellingcat).
2. Strategic Thinking Like an RTS/Chess Game
The left often gets bogged down in reactive, emotional, or ideological purity battles instead of long-term strategy. The right, meanwhile, plays a patient game (e.g., Federalist Society stacking courts, decades of libertarian/religious think tanks).
Key Moves:
Localism: Focus on school boards, county elections, and state legislatures (where the right has dominated).
Narrative Control: Stop engaging with bad-faith right-wing framing (e.g., "defund the police" was a gift to the right). Craft simple, positive messages (e.g., "Healthcare for All" beats "Medicare Expansion").
Coalition Building: Prioritize shared goals (e.g., abortion rights, labor rights) over divisive internal fights. The right unites evangelicals, libertarians, and oligarchs despite contradictions; the left can unite labor, minorities, and youth.
3. The Leftâs Messaging Problem
The rightâs narrative is simple: "Restore traditional values/glory." The leftâs messaging is often fragmented (e.g., "Abolish ICE" vs. "Immigration reform") or easily distorted (e.g., "CRT" panic).
Humor/Memes: The right dominates meme culture; the left needs its own (e.g., "Dark Brandon" worked because it was playful and resilient to backlash).
Pre-bunking: Actively define your terms before the right can (e.g., "DEI = Fairness for Everyone").
4. The Rightâs Insanity is the Leftâs Only Advantage
The left often wins by default (e.g., Republicans nominating unelectable extremists). But relying on this is dangerousâitâs how Hitler rose (the center-left assumed no one would vote for Nazis).
Proactive Steps:
Electoral Pragmatism: Support the least-worst viable option (e.g., mainstream Dems) while building progressive power locally.
Discrediting the Right: Amplify their extremism (e.g., Project 2025âs unpopular policies) without seeming hysterical.
Alternative Institutions: Unions, co-ops, and community networks can build left-wing power outside electoral politics.
5. Cold Civil War Dynamics
The U.S. is in a "cold" conflict where the right seeks to exploit democratic systems to end democracy (e.g., gerrymandering, voter suppression). The left must:
Play the long game: Focus on voter registration, judicial appointments, and constitutional safeguards.
Deprive the right of oxygen: Economic policies that reduce despair (e.g., student debt relief undercutting incel/white supremacist recruitment).
Final Thought:
The leftâs biggest weakness isnât policyâitâs discipline. The right marches in lockstep; the left overthinks. To win:
The problem with that mindset is that you will never win at violence with nazis. They are much more skilled and ruthless.
You will never be able to match them and if you try you will lose the very thing you wanted to protect.
What you need to focus on is a pragmatic action like in an RTS or game of chess. Strategic thinking.
How can you turn the tides of this Cold Civil War or at least contribute to its, desirable for us, outcome.
The current issue is that the left cannot agree what the desired outcome is and hence cannot effectively act if they cannot agree on what they want.
Right have simple agenda and thus it is simple to rally people around it. Good old times. Can there be something more straightforward?
Left have some several nebulous proposals no one quite fully understands. Of course enemy capitalised on these mistakes creating their own simple narrative what left intends to do that is clear and easily digestible therefore much more vocal and viral.
As if this wasnât bad enough the left then proceeded to furiously engage with this false narrative trap bait.
Democrats have ~45% in spite of their actions not thanks to them. Just because conservatives are so insane that even their incompetence seems better for many
Ahh isnât this the essence of social media circa 2025
I would bet my right kidney that as I type this, deranged german zoomers on xitter share âare you a naziâ test and are not happy with a negative result in the slightest
It looks like it was a personal offence to some lurkers. Maybe they couldnât handle looking into mirror?
It was meant as silly ironic shitpost but it has stirred some unspeakable people that couldnât even bear to see it. I didnât even know we had them on lemmy
Optimism comes easier when you have all the real estate you will ever need. I imagine if you are struggling it would be hard to find some kind of solace
There are more nasty things you ingest daily. the most healthy people die early because of simply bad genes while some smoking couch potatoes rapists live to 100 years old
We need some cope though and semblance of control hence existence of religion, nutrition âscienceâ and rumba. People brains ainât made to handle the raw reality
So you can feel good and safe doing bullshit exercises up until the last day before random heart failure
There is no scorn or contempt here donât get me wrong itâs all fine as long as we feel good in my opinion. I wouldnât think of anyone who doesnât raw dog reality as a lesser being itâs simply impossible to function without some kind of copium mechanism for fragile existence whether it is wellbeing coaching, technobrosing, mysticism or Christianity all fulfills same purpose
Itâs much better for you as a mortal to adopt one of them, just pick one and not handicap yourself with existential crisises every evening cause thatâs burden we arenât made to handle
He is probably a furry in secret, very effective way to make these things happen.
It takes real dedication to make a career in politics as republican with a single plan to turn kids into furries by goading them into protesting anti furry bill

say whatever you want but news consumption is a form of entertainment
+comments discussion under the articles, it is pretty engaging form of recreation.
As long as the topics arenât the same over and over anyway, then it gets booooring
