I asserted you were wrong and listed why I said that to you.

You begin the ad hominem attack by telling me to study more history without providing any reasoning behind your claim.

You could have said “oh just look at the Tulsa Massacre, CIA Activities, government toppling, agent orange, My Lai Massacre, the treatment of minority groups throughout our countries history, slavery, systemic racism and injustice, rampant corporatism, resource guarding, Kent State Massacre, political assassinations of civil rights leaders, mkultra, fbi congress bribing scandals, the Tuskegee experiment, and etc”

you deliberately ignored the nuance of the first half of my message to respond with the same tired message of “America Bad”.

We are both allowed to express our opinions, and mine is that even if my first point is wrong, we can do better.

Yeah, you are right!

The world did exist before 2001, and yet clearly your reading comprehension skills don’t exist in the year 2026.

You’re just wrong, but that’s alright.

9/11 is really where the modern world was birthed in terms of American politics.

Sure it’s been terrible in the past, but it hasn’t always been this terrible and for about 30 years or so it has been restrained (Rodney king protests). It went Cold War during this time and most adults 40 and below have known relative peace in the U.S. in conjunction with government sanctioned violence towards our own people.

Don’t twist these ideas with a flawed concept of we “always have done it this way ” as if human society hasn’t progressed whatsoever. With this outlook we would have been living in caves and fields all the way up to now. It’s like oppressive defeatism, and it’s just utterly pointless.

Just because things have been one way doesn’t mean it can’t be changed.

The world is not binary and we can always push forward for positive changes.

I’m checking in with voyager here, and I came from the reddit Apollo app and I feel the same.

It was practically seamless, though I’ve considered switching to try out other clients.

Tried Piefed and find it clunky with my current level of familiarity

Th issue isn’t that other people do what they are told or ever have, it’s that the Judiciary had an enforcement arm that would get these people and round them up.

Thats what stopped happening, the enforcement arm became the oppressors an dissenters themselves.

“Who watches the watchmen?” Kind of thing

Then they go on to softball the rest:

  • GOA also called on “the Left” to “stop antagonizing immigration and border patrol agents who are taking criminals off the streets and play a crucial role in protecting communities and upholding the rule of law.”
 

Pretty self explanatory, been learning Italian for awhile (1.5 years) and would like to practice with someone who is learning English or just wouldn’t mind having random conversations with an American from Ohio haha.

Just looking to see what’s out there

 

This is former Hancock County Sheriff Deputy Chase Blackwell

Chase Blackwell was a sheriffs deputy in Hancock county, Mississippi. He murdered a Florida college student named Isaiah Winkley outside of a home in Perkinston, Mississippi. He was only 21 years old. He was unarmed and was shot 5 times.

They have not released the body cam footage to anyone and Chase Blackwell resigned from the Hancock County Sheriffs department for “some personal issues within the office”. They have denied the families claims to see the body cam footage period.
