I know we loved the leaded solution and we won't cry if more happens but yeah at the of the day the system will need a legal reform to properly depose the parasites.

Shootings might continue until morale improves?

We've had several mass movements about it over the past 15~20 years, the only thing that has worked so far is lead poisoning.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

certainly if the movement is fast enough, as we've learned.

Say a muzzle velocity of roughly 1100 ft per second?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Sometimes it do be like that

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

But when I say the same solution I get banned from communities for being a "coward" and "copaganda."

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I think if Bernie suggested murdering all the CEOs he'd get banned from his communities, though.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah but how come CEOs never get banned anywhere for murdering all the working class Premium payers...

Hmmm

I don't think such things have ever or will ever stop Bernie Sanders from speaking his mind.

This country needs to have a mass bowel movement and flush that shit down the drain.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago

Mass movement, movement of mass, close enough.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

a mass movement of 3d printed felonies

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

I didn't see any felonies

Just a well done job.

[–] [email protected] 52 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Word is, when Bernie first saw the news of the murder, he said, "Fuck yes."

Beating them is another good option, well reminded, Bernie.

Peñata economics... Beat the rich until the money comes out

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago

Give it a try Bernie, maybe if you say it someone will listen.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 week ago

Good interview, good vision. Should have been Bernie.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I wish we would see a movement like this in Canada when it comes to grocery giants like Loblaws

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Loblaws got a parastic CEO and y'all got school shooters?

Might resolve itself at some point but who knows

No way to tell tbh

Do they also have a law review?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

I think Bob has a law blog.

Fuck it, i think Luigi’s method is gonna be more effective.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What's easier, motivating hundreds of thousands of people to get out and protest, or letting a few moderately motivated people take direct action?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Not protest. Y'all need at least a general strike to have a shot at doing something. That or found/get behind a third party and kill the DNC.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

You are correct but the person you are responding is more correct

Mass movements can do lots of things, but we can’t even get a majority of people to vote…

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Voting is how we got here...

Political proces and utterly captured

Otherwise we would have had Bernie 2016.

I am tired of political clowns pretending like politics is the solution, it is key part of the problem.

Did you see how politicians are reacting here.

Besides Bernie that is

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Because people don't feel represented in the current FPTP voting-system, which to be fair, was designed by wealthy romans to benefit wealthy romans.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

As it turns out, you only need like around 5% of the population to start a revolution (if even that amount). Revolutions have been started with even fractions of a percent.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 week ago

I can't even get a plurality of people to agree that we should have a national strike.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago

We can get a majority of those that do vote to vote for Trump so I am not that hopeful.
