the people with the "everybody disagrees with me therefore I must be the most correct" brainworms are a serious blight on culture and I don't know how we fix it

not sure I've ever seen the humiliation kink just posted out like that, usually it's just implied

I do actually get annoyed when people call whatever bad thing happening fascism, but the time for this hair splitting shit is over. Period.

“If this were really fascism, you’d be a coward like I would be.”

Furthermore “if this were really fascism you’d stop posting” is possibly the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. Yes, you should be careful what you say publicly, but dissident voices have always existed? Like??

Where the hell are these people getting that you have to be smart and “capable” to be a fascist?

I watched my neighbors get kidnapped off the street going to church this morning.

Why? Do you think the government is that capable, and you're that important, that you need to hide on social media? No offense intended, but this is the same government that can't stop stepping on rakes.

I just watched a procession of cars and a couple bicycles following the ICE van down a side street laying on their horns and screaming at them while a bunch of my white neighbors came outside to help I love this neighborhood

Just heard whistles and honking on the street behind my place.

Not that these idiots know what the Paris commune was

My instinct is to run toward it even though I’m in my sweats and slip ons wearing a Paris commune tshirt, so there is that

Neighbor informed me ICE was spotted down the street while I was out with the dog, and suddenly all the opining and joking about it online from people who aren’t here matters even less to me than it did before.

Rideshare apps also do this, I don’t use them very often, but if I’m using one, it’s going to be the one that connects to my airline miles account.

/\__/\__/\__/ @cardiograms.bsky.social · 2d

Not really, it’s been a few years since I hung out in those regularly, but sometimes there are marketing research or loyalty apps where you can earn miles instead by linking a reward cc or just straight to your airline miles account, so I always check if that’s an option and if it’s a better deal.
