MODERATORS
I never said such. I just believe the solution to the issues at hand aren't as elementary as you make it out to be. What we do know though, is making an enemy out of a group doesn't make them more willing to reform towards our viewpoints. It creates more Trumps, Desantis, Abbotts followers that lock down from working against the issues at hand and double down on not listening to solutions.
I said nothing about solutions to any issue at hand. The cops made an enemy out of the people first, probably right around the time the white supremacists were becoming the majority. The cops will never "reform to our viewpoints" because they exist to protect private property and the interests of the wealthy.
The fact that either you're 18 and have almost zero political perspective or you just literally have zero political perspective is showing.
Sounds like "reach across the aisle to fascists." Do you really think those people will ever "listen to solutions?" like one day DeSantis et al are just going to come around and apologize for being blatant bigoted fascists? Lmao
We don't need the ~30% of the country that sucks. Stop acting like we need them for anything. They are gone, living in their own reality.
I love how your argument is don't disagree with fascists because you'll get more fascism. Clown show.
