Because it always has been. It's called capitalism. This system will literally destroy the planet and enslave all live for the profits of a few ultra privileged man babies.

Because we have been taking the high road. Time to play on their level. Have no shame!
Because most people are either stupid, evil, or stupid and evil.
I don't know what the solution is, I can only hope its mostly just the "extreme ignorance" type of stupidity and not evil or "willing ignorance" stupidity and after experiencing the suffering they've enabled for themselves that they put 2 and 2 together and things maybe recover partially or enough to prevent the end of human civilization as we know it.

Because people have become comfortable enough (can't remember the downside) to flirt with populism.
Once they get the short sharp shock of what it actually means to be governed by these people we might recover from it... Maybe
There's no "populism" under the state. It's called fascism.
That is the eventual conclusion of capitalism, the way it is currently set to play out.
The only forces that could act against it depend on the distribution of critical information.... And those are owned by the same private interests.. Soooooo. We'll see. Doesn't bode well at all.
Maybe you have this filing because live is anadrome of evil.

We need more violent good guys
We need more reasonable people who don't believe in delusional nonsense like "bad guys" and "violent good guys".
That only works if the other side decides to not use violence

Everytime we talk about violence being the only way to create change, limp-dick liberals bitch about how peaceful protests are the only way.
Liberalism helped build this hell, and it's determined to maintain it.
Leftist need to get guns. Now.
Liberals have good intentions at times, but they are ultimately toothless because they are pussies. I just have to roll my eyes at the people who you tell you to contact your representatives, but has never spent a minute at the range.
Do you know how you get people to listen to you? Let them know that you and people with similar views know how to operate a rifle.

So the republicans were right all this time? Wow
The idea of being armed as a deterrent to authority is historically true. You don't even need to use violence, just being capable of it is enough.
Republicans worshipping cops while encouraging mentally ill teenagers to own 15 guns is not, however.
Republicans also utterly fail to realize corporate power and government power are the same thing.

Yeah it's all the same authoritarian ideology just with different versions of their daddy.
Oh, so where the abolitionist wrong to shoot up slavers?

The world has been in a gigantic psychological experiment.
Sure does feel that way 😔
there's no good or evil. those are constructs that aren't suitable to describe anything that's happening
There are people who work to benefit others and there are people who work to benefit only themselves.
Anyway, you should play BioShock
