I guess I am being one too, but no. You exclaiming that you tell retail workers to fuck off makes you an asshole, regardless if I am too. You aren’t changing any practice or attempting to.

Also if you’re claiming overweight people generally aren’t on construction sites then I don’t believe you’ve ever been on one.

Also to be clear, the only thing I’m basing any stereotypes on is the stereotypes for people you tell retail workers to fuck off, which are generally assholes.

No, telling a worker who’s required to ask your pudgy ass, while you autist walk to the frozen chicken tenders if you need anything in order to not starve to fuck off makes you an asshole.

Not realizing what I was talking about also makes you an asshole.

Kinda sounds like you’re just an asshole

I see what you’re saying, and please don’t think I was attacking you, rather adding to your point.

I think a world you described is one where that 30% I mentioned were way more engaged politically globally.

As it not being rooted in reality that’s the ceiling I want to break. 1 million people in a country making direct, unified actions, unified by class could achieve many of those fast and effective efforts.

I feel you though, I feel that we are moving at a fraction of the speed we ought to be and could be going towards progress and it’s almost maddening not seemingly being able to do anything except know how fucked it all is.

You basically said what I was going to, but the ideal world part I disagree with.

A world in which enough is grown to feed everyone and enough profit is produced to meet everyone’s needs doesn’t need to be ideal. It’s a world we live in now.

The above dude should just stick to attacking the ultra wealthy and like you said, not space programs.

But like I was saying, an ideal world isn’t needed. Just about 30% of the rest of us to physically and verbally confront the few thousand or so who take too much.

Feel like this is a point of no return regarding a government choosing to side with the elite for the upcoming calamities instead of the people.

Obviously, not a surprising choice, but I’d just think France of all places would at least hesitate a little on such a brazen attack on liberty.
