Quidam Viator posted:We need a series of undeniable, life-ruining fuckups to even have a CHANCE at the American people DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT, because as long as we have our fuckin burrito wrappers, our instagram, and the rest, we will remain too pacified to take action so extreme it's never been attempted before. My grandfather was a marine in the Pacific theatre of WWII. He was on Guadalcanal in Johnny Basilone's mschine gun squad actually. He used to to tell a story about basic training, I think this would have been roughly 1939. During training they discovered two men having sex. The marine who found screamed out "Queers". This was repeated throughout the camp. The two men were beaten and driven naked out of the camp. Into the poo poo awful swamps of Beaufort and Port Royal. When you say "undeniable, life-ruining fuckups" what I hear is a return to horrific things like that. Further, let's say we cross a line and thier ideas are rejected. They can just be put inside of another idea! Like this: How the Swastika Became a Confederate Flag https://nyti.ms/2qLqfiA With ideas the same bullshit can always be loaded into another sack. The question of Trump or Pence is a good way to think about it too. People will buy the same poo poo in a prettier bag. Real change isn't so facile as acceleration, it's hard and messy.
