Very sad and an unnecessary death - he should've only set fire to the house instead. In fact, anyone getting evicted should do that.
WTF
Evictions are violence. All landlords and cops are bastards.
Guess my local news in Oklahoma decided to report on this. This shit crap fuck cops ACAB all the way.
It's not a blanket statement dumbass. It's very pointed and specific.
No one said all people. Op said cops and landlords. Two positions that commit violence on innocent people as part of their job description. To be a cop or a landlord is to be a bastard. It's inherent to the professions.
Cops and landlords are not all people, unless I'm misreading this thread, that was my point.
I don't do any of this, I only jumped in to point out the grammatical miscomprehension between y'all, I'm as neutral as Switzerland here.
Ok I guess it's hard to focus because you are agitated by this thread, totally understandable.
You make a point about generalising "all people" (which was totally valid btw).
Other commentators point out that cops and landlords aren't "all people" (as in, there are people that exist that are neither cops or landlords), and they're "only" generalising these sub-groups (again, not saying I agree with that either).
Miscomprehension ensues.
No worries! I'm just proud we turned it around. The goalposts were indeed moved on a technicality here. There are certainly a ton of people around here that refuse any nuance on these two groups, I totally got your point and think it's a fair one, I also don't like blanket statements.
That's a blanket statement....
Yup, by the Socratic transitive law of equality, if mastengwee says that everyone who makes generalizations is a bastard, and mastengwee's statement was a generalization in itself, then mastengwee just called himself a bastard.
If only we empowered our citizens instead of disparaging and monitizing them in an effort to build more yachts.
