there was no good-faith and productive discussion to be had when you celebrate murder

how can you call others a tankie when you dance on graves as they do?

i have sympathy for the americans who are wronged by the man murdered but instead of violence maybe you consider reading a book to understand the world around you and be open to the power of faith to restore your love of humanity instead of parading violence

I have seen nearly that exact same story so many times. it's like from some MLM recruiter playbook. I guess it works enough times that they keep doing it.

this book. some Dave Ramsey shit. a ton of reactionary bullshit, ton of chud lit.

Yeah I can see how they reel people in, it felt like I was being guilted into the next meeting and led along, it was vague and he didn't even say the name was amway until the 4th time we talked. The original pitch was "my good friends started this small company and want to help other ent"
