I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.

Aside from Tom Morello telling Paul Ryan to gently caress off, have any of the members of RATM ever commented on the right's tone-deaf use of their music like this? I'm picturing Zack De La Rocha seeing this video for the first time, and looking longingly into the distance while a single tear rolls down his cheek like the 'Native American' guy in the anti-littering video from the 80s.

Not trump but we have this lovely ben Shapiro right wing wannabe outrage merchant known as Lawrence Fox, who decided to bleat and whine about the F word being blanked out of Fairy Tale of new york, loads of people jumped on him and said the Pogues themselves stopped using the word a decade ago and then…

If people who were upset about the state of things resorted to violence more often... there would probably be even more dead lgbt people than there already are. There are way more options than political violence or "just vote," and being aghast at the idea of political violence is probably a pretty solid lgbt supporting position, on balance.

Violence and voting are both only going to be successful if you've got more people/better organization on your side than your opponents do. "Just vote" is a terrible mindset because you need engagement, outreach, organization, and a drive to address social issues through multiple channels. "Just shoot them" is also going to be terrible for basically the exact same reasons as an overly simplistic ineffective solution, but with a bunch more obvious downsides. Perhaps if we've found voting to be frustratingly ineffective we should try protests, labor actions, or even destruction of property (which isn't meaningfully violence, even though it's often called violence) before we start considering shooting people.

This is just a weird twitter power fantasy that if good people were just more edgy and violent good things would happen, without being able to imagine that maybe bad people would also ramp up their political violence in response.

It's a pretty poorly thought out dunk on a pretty reasonable position.

Organization without the threat of violence is just an extension of just vote so I don’t know why you treat them as distinct entities outside you prefer one over the other

"Violence" against property, labor actions, economic disruptions are all called "violence" by the political establishment, but none of it involves normalizing shooting people, which is probably something that should remain off the table as long as possible for the purely practical reason that shooting people in an invitation to get people shooting at you and your allies.

Most countries who currently offer better rights than the United States have strict gun laws and even gun bans.

That doesn't mean they're capable of progressing so long as one of the two parties available to vote for are textbook fascists. The only thing that will overthrow them is a bullet.

So America will need guns. They're a special case.

I think guns are a genie America isn't able to put back in the bottle short of having a totalitarian state, and if we end up with a totalitarian state it's not gonna be a benevolent one. Sandy Hook proved we're never going to do anything serious about keeping guns out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them and I don't blame people in marginalized and oppressed groups for wanting to be as well armed as the people seeking their destruction.
