And yet these same people who wrote and speak about it would never lift a finger to uphold the freedom of others, and break down and cry, exclusively, when their freedom is taken away for just being themselves.

I enjoyed OPs comic, but from that linked exchange OP is telling people to buy weapons and body armor to fight the government but then says they wouldn't participate in this because they're in Japan and would potentially be detained by ICE if they came here. They're engaging in exactly what I quoted from your comment, which is why they're getting flack. They're deriding people for not throwing themselves into a meat grinder all the while safely sitting 6,000 miles away in comfort.

sheeple

Let's not dehumanize stupidity. It’s a serious mal-evolution we have to fight against constantly, esp. in a up-downvote network.

Blacks, women and LGBT folks have been the largest gun buying demographic for several years. You suburban white boys didn't get the memo?

It's a commitment for sure, NOT to be taken lightly. You do you.

It's exactly the opposite, stickly@ has given up on saving his own family and friends, when I asked them to insurrect. They are absolutely welcome to surrender. I have not.
I challenged them 🧵 to even dismantle tourist deportations, and downvoted my motion.
I can face fascism to the barrel, but not by myself.
Are you?

I'm genuinely trying not to be mean, but this is some of the most cartoonish "tough guy" language I've seen in a long time.

You're literally just sitting at your home 6,000 miles away anonymously goading others into amassing weapons and armor to fight one of the largest super powers in the world, talking about how you're "willing to stare down the barrel of a gun," while whining about downvotes on a website and saying that you can't participate because you might get temporarily detained at the airport.

Thyme

With some garlic and olive oil.

Can I not have sympathy for Americans getting sent to deathcamps simply because I do not want them dead? How is it cartoonish to have sympathy at destroying fascism whenever it crops up, when it affects me too? You think I don't have fascists raining down my neck because my imperialists never left?

I want everyone to live free. Be able to choose who they want to engage with, who to befriend, who to communicate, etc.. Since we know your current despot will not help us, I choose to help folks that I can. And those are you.

It is a challenge of priorities. I don't care about votes. Do you care to see your friends and family get abducted? That is the crux.

I don't. So I’m fighting to keep my loved ones safe.
I am revolting. Are you?

RATM begs to differ

It has to start somewhere, it has to start sometime
What better place than here, what better time than now?

lmao this is dark... And a very good comparison of the world as it is now.

Rage against the machine mentioned something similar.

"What? The land of the free? Whoever told you that is your enemy"

America is not the world, and Gaza has been in a constant state of resistance.

How many people are upvoting this while still eating meat and not realising they are the fascists in the non-human animal's world?

Damn g chill out, vegans be out there in Hollywood pestering studios to use ethically killed worms in their films while real people are getting glassed. Maybe create an hierarchy of empathy before treating a chicken equal to a human's life

Pigs are literally put into gas chambers but ok

I highly reccomend the book 'Blessed is the Flame' for a more in-depth take on this mindset, and how it breaks. It's a short read, but quite incredible.

Hail Sheepler!

Now is not the time.

While OP's comment was a bit unpromtped, the irony is glorious.
