When will American corporations finally be allowed to replace all cops with private military contractors? I mean why bother with the middleman? I need to know this so that I can buy stock in some PMCs when the getting is good.

Brothers and sisters, if you and I would just realize, that once we learn to talk the language that they understand, they will then get the point. You can't ever reach a man if you don't speak his language. If a man speaks the language of brute force, you can't come to him with peace. Why goodnight! He'll break you in two, as he has been doing all along. If a man speaks French, you can't speak to him in German. If he speaks Swahili, you can't communicate with him in Chinese. You have to find out, what does this man speak? Once you know his language, learn how to speak his language. He'll get the point, there will be some dialogue, some communication, and some understanding will be developed. Learn the language that they understand, and then when they come up on our door step to talk, we can talk.

I wonder there are some corporate big wigs who sit at home in a silent, shaking rage who would absolutely steam roll the protesters if they had the option. like some dude in a big leather armchair clenching a glass of scotch that he's ten seconds from casting into the roaring fireplace to go on a rant about destroying the peasants who dare to impede progress.

then there's a bunch of dudes fantasizing like they're the ones who would profit from the pipeline, shaking their fists at protesters who don't affect their lives in any way

hmm yes, if they build this pipeline it might leak and poison the water, so right before they turn it on lets make sure it leaks catastrophically multiple times

There are a lot more important problems than Standing Rock to worry about. We have to end climate change for one. And slow down the nuclear arms race, stop terrorism and world hunger. We have to provide food and shelter for the homeless, and oppose racial discrimination and promote civil rights, while also promoting equal rights for women. We have to encourage a return to traditional moral values. Most importantly, we have to promote general social concern and less materialism in young people.

none of this comes before completing forum migration. priority No. 1

Dude there is an entire city that was poisoned by its own water supply because of a massive government gently caress up and that same government insisted there was no problem until someone specifically pointed to the data and said "look stupid it's lead." We don't give a gently caress about anything as a society anymore at all.
