To preface, I am agreeing with you and countering the person you’re replying to.

There is a difference between abolish the police and abolishing law enforcement. Like it or not, there is ALWAYS something enforcing the laws. It might be the form of mob justice, vigilantes, local militias, gangs, a sheriff, neighborhood watches, the military, or some other state-sanctioned organizations, but there is always law enforcement. That does not argue for maintaining the police, but could still say that a force existing to enforce the laws exists. Heck, I think a police force isn’t necessarily a bad idea, but that the current police force is staffed by people with a propensity for abuse, disdain for the people they are there to protect, and a willingness to escalate situations with violence at pretty much any turn.

You can argue for different forms of law enforcement, but it will always exist in some form. It’s just that citizens need far more oversight and control over it because law enforcement is power that can easily corrupt.

Agitators fired paintballs and were pepper spraying, according to some people that were in the area, and the cops did nothing about them.

Right??? I can’t believe these protestors! All ICE is doing is a ton of illegal shit, what’s wrong with that?

90% of people quit RIGHT before they learn to fly.

Ah… I think I see your problem now. You think nothing can happen unless the bourgeois will it. I, frankly, don’t agree with that. I think you think the world is a lot more chess-like when it’s really a lot more like poker with mostly idiots. That does explain why MLs want to go authoritarian to fix the problems, though.

Anyway, the reason why you’re a fucking biscuit is you don’t seem to be expressing ideas to convert liberals to your cause. You have written them off as unfixable, and, well, that sort of gives you fewer allies. How silly.

But that’s the thing. That isn’t the primary task. That’s your primary task. Some people just need to get out of their struggle before they can help others. And if you think that will create more enemies than allies to you, then… I think you are grossly misinformed or you are lying about what you actually want.

Like, you might as well say we shouldn’t have freed the slaves unless we destroyed the institutions that created slavery. Incremental progress is still good, even if it’s not preferred, and people’s lives benefit from it.

Is anybody an ally of you if they have other goals that are not yours???

So deep. Much thought. Philosopher. Wow.

Truly, you also participate in society, you fucking donut.

You got a lot of people attacking you for saying this that are oddly defensive of billionaires and their “right” to purchase young women, sex, or anything else they want.

But Bill Gates did make a generous donation in Epstein’s name only a couple hours after this draft, so, you know, definitely not conclusive.

In a perfectly balanced, evenly powered world where everyone had adequate housing, food, and all the necessities of life, transactional sex is fine. Because no one’s life depends on it. There is no power imbalance, no coersion.

But we don’t live in that world. Billionaires can and often do make your life a living hell if they don’t get what they want from you. And people, generally, do not have all the necessities of life. 99+% of them require money to live. And these women are no exception. Heck, this doesn’t apply to even just billionaires or men. Sex workers NEED that money to live, so it is inherently exploitative.

That is the problem, like it or not. But billionaires only compound the issue multiple times over, because they can also apply power greater than others. And they can stop being a billionaire at any point.

Lmao! Okay, buddy, body language expert coming through! Fucking good one.

Juvenile? Okay. Now fuck off.

I mean, I think they got it right or you would’ve said otherwise.

Ignoring the crux of every argument due to “personal attacks” because I told you to talk to a trained unbiased third party. Classic. You are not a serious person.

Yes. Your gut is very likely wrong. Especially because you got upset that I told you to find real evidence because your evidence is “She didn’t act how I thought she would.” For an assault. When you are assaulted, you do not always act rationally. You can freeze up. You can fall to the ground. You can fight back. You can laugh! That does not mean you weren’t assaulted no matter how you respond. That’s why there is a lot of research on trauma responses.

You can look up the arrest record and follow the suspect through the criminal system. Look up they’re social media and find where they’re a Magahead for the past 3+ years. Let me know when you find no evidence of your theory and pretend the lack of evidence is evidence of a cover up, that’s usually the next step in the conspiracy theory rathole.

Like, you should seriously consider talking to a psychologist because these gut feelings could be a warning sign for deeper issues.

She fucking squared up at the end. She’s the best.

It is literally a conspiracy theory, and a horseshit one. Anybody with security is generally told to duck and cover, but there is no fucking politician class that drills it into you. Sometimes you respond to a traumatic event in a weird way. Sometimes you don’t even realize it’s traumatic until afterward! Every psychologist will tell you this! This was taught in HIGH SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY 20 FUCKING YEARS AGO, it isn’t new.

When someone is standing during a gunfight, is it their fault if they get shot? No, goddamn it. That’s a dumbass thought that dumbasses have when their dumbassery makes them a dumb asshole. That is literally victim blaming. You are victim blaming. Fuck off or find real fucking evidence because your body language expertise is also horseshit debunk psychology. If you can find real evidence, then it’s not you just thinking some asinine theory, and you won’t look insane.

Lol. Lmao even.

So, you’re using body language to read this? Holy fuck.

It is entirely possibly, nay, fucking probable that she assumed he wanted to speak to her. She is, rather unsurprisingly, a fairly nice person, and quite personable. I have been to a couple of her events because she’s my congressperson. Fuck off with this conspiracy horseshit.

But also let’s talk about this: She shows no concern about the substance sprayed on her?

Have you ever been assaulted? Because fuck you. Everyone expects victims to be perfect. “Why didn’t you fight back or run away or call for help or blah blah blah?” Victim-blaming mentality is what that is. “Why didn’t you do X?” is the number one statement for people that have never been in a bad situation say to people who have. It is, quite honestly, disgusting.

Read up on trauma responses and let me know when you realize you’re wrong.
