Im Going To Be Honest And Tell You The Truth.

I’m going to be honest and tell you the truth.

68,000 people die a year from a lack of healthcare care.

Every summer has broken the record for hottest summer for the last 8 years.

Multiple BILLIONS of American tax dollars have been sent to fund a genocide.

YOU are the one with a sense of moral superiority when you blame and discourage people from fighting.

If you think you’re fighting for a better world I’m sorry but you’re not fighting, you’re standing with the status quo which is not good enough.

I want to care and fight for a better world, so I’m voting for the only NON GENOCIDE candidate on the Ballot this November, her name is Jill Stein

i kind of wish the anti voting people wouldn’t dance around the idea of what happens after the election. Like okay, the democrats lose, you taught them a lesson (and fwiw, I do think its a legitimate message to send- the people are not happy with the actions and status quo of the DNC). Now What. Trump, the multiply indicted crime president who incited a violent mob upon the capitol, is now President. He has all the qualities you hate about Biden, AND more, except he and his administration have even less reason to be sensitive to the wishes of their democratic constituents. He is a puppet for the far right and white supremacists and christian nationalists. I really shouldn’t even have to go over this- we LIVED it already. Genuinely asking, is this what you want? Because frankly I do not think 4 more years of Trump is worth it over Biden. Your hands are not clean, this is the future you want to choose. I just don’t understand why.

Don’t be a “alpha” or “sigma” male…

Be better… Be… an Epsilon male…

EPSILON APPRECIATION!!!!

Astro Boy (2003) now in 1080p Full HD!

The 2003 Astro Boy anime never got a Blu-ray release, so the copies circulating around only go up to 480p. I found out a native HD version was available on some Japanese streaming services, so I've made all the episodes available here. Enjoy!

Comparison:

I feel like a lot of people don’t get Miki or are very uncharitable.

So first I’ll say what I think other people think, and then I’ll say why I disagree with that lol.

So I see a lot of people see Miki as some sort of puritan

To me, I’d say Miki has more of an OCD thing going on but that he doesn’t hold others to the standard he sets for himself. the only person he judges is his sister but that’s because she acts out specifically for his attention.

The way I see Miki in the show doesn’t believe in himself and feels like he needs other people to be enough.

I think Miki and Kozue have a parallel dinamica when it comes to their parents divorce and how they act out, Miki blames himself and Kozue blames the world/her parents.

Miki’s problem is that he feels like he needs other people to be enough, (though he is distrustful of adults which is interesting.)

And Kozue’s problem is she feels like she doesn’t need anyone.

But yeah TL;DR Miki’s problem is he thinks Anthy will make him whole and not that he’s judgmental.

But also I like hearing what people think so feel free to add what you think.

Wonder how far I can prod libs into finishing their full thought bubble behind all this "harm reduction" "genocide is a single issue" "you don't care about marginalized people in the US" "dyou want fascism WITH genocide???" screeching.

Okay, class, say it with me: "I don't want to live in a third world country like the ones we keep destroying."

Because you know. The countries your war criminal leaders keep bombing and starving and destabilising and leeching dry? We don't have trans or gay rights or women's rights or disability benefits or environmental or labour protections. No one would want to live in our countries obviously. You'd kill yourselves before you had to live like we do. Sure, we're only like this because you keep us trapped in poverty and violence and we still have full, happy lives worth living despite it but that's because we're used to it! We don't know any better! Not like you! You know what you deserve and you shouldn't have to lose anything as a consequence of your own political choices! Your government is supposed to happen to other people! Not you! So like, yeah, it's bad that the poors are being massacred wholesale or whatever, but like. That doesn't mean you gotta die with them, y'know? And by "death" you don't mean actual genocide like what's happening over here but "death" as in "having to live like we do".

The trolley problem metaphor is so goddamn attractive to you because you see yourself outside the tracks, objectively assessing the situation and making the "tough" "moral" choice for the collective good. It's imperialist horseshit. You don't have a democracy and it's not a trolley. What you have is an imperial death machine running on an apartheid system that decides who gets fed to it and who gets fed by it. That's your "two tracks"— the colonized and the colonizer, the core and the periphery, the white and the coloured. "Harm reduction"? Have you counted how many fucking millions in and around the world your death machine eats to keep how many of you "safe"? But our losses are a foregone conclusion, a matter of course, a regrettable necessity. The only variable is yours. Every political choice in 200 years of your settler colony has been "genocide AND". "Genocide AND women's rights". "Genocide AND workers rights". "Genocide AND fascism". "Genocide AND democracy". The difference is that for the first time in your history you're now watching it livestreamed to the entire world in real time 24/7, exactly as your colony is about to capsize under the weight of its own bloodlust. A sea change from when your parents threw parties watching bombs dropping on Baghdad and then spent twenty years watching movies about sad it made the soldiers.

How do you count the victims when we are numbers and you are people? You scream about trans rights in the US while Palestinian trans children don't have the right to reach puberty. OSHA for you but Congolese children have to die in mines. Reproductive rights for the US while Sudanese women are raped in millions. Yes, but it's always been "genocide AND" no matter what, right? Do we want to sabotage the party that has never fucking cared about us and don't now even with half their own country screaming at them on the off-chance they might possibly maybe one day do?? Why are we acting so mad like it's YOUR fault that you're fighting for your quality of life over our corpses?? Do we want YOU to lose your rights over it??

Yes, actually. We do. We want you to have a taste of the reality that generations on generations of your illegal illegitimate white supremacist occupation has inflicted on us just so your worthless hide can sit there and call our genocides a single fucking issue. And let's be real: that's what you're so fucking afraid of.
