“Please tread on everyone but me, daddy!”
I got a 1,000,000,000 bucks the dude has a Punisher sticker on the back of his truck too
I’ll match that on he completely misunderstands the punisher
I wish Disney/Marvel had a Punisher movie leading up to Spiderman: Brand New Day where Frank kills a shitloaf of cops.
They would never do that though, cuz they’re cowards
And thinks Born In The USA is the most patriotic song.
Also notice how the “government” is on top of the snake
Not really.
It’s “Don’t tread on ME” after all. Pigs don’t tread on them, they just get warnings. They don’t care if other people are tread on.
Also known as fascism.
Authoritarianism. It has no strong preference for left or right. Wherever there’s a strong man. You will have the people that think the strong man protects them and serves them. Even as he serves himself. And the people who are being tread on.
The concept of “authoritarianism” is gibberish, that’s why it can be applied to the left and right. All states are authoritarian.
Unless you’re an anarchist, you’re an authoritarian too. You just think your authority is legitimate and fair and righteous.
I haven’t found an adequate explanation of how anarchism works to not be tinder for the fires of corruption and power consolidation.
I get that these are diseases of all societies, but the institutional systems of a liberal democracy seems at least to slow the process down. Granted, we’ve not had a one that has lasted for a thousand years.
So —seriously asking — how does anarchism work to last a thousand years?
Oh no, I’m not an anarchist. I’m a Marxist, I understand the state to be an organ by which one class represses another.
That’s why I’m saying “authoritarianism” is gibberish. There’s no other way to organize complex society. For now.
I am an enemy of the state in general. All states. Authoritarianism 100% exists. Though I get it. You have a different taste in boots. Authoritarianism of course can’t exist without the state. And the state once it’s achieved a significant size inevitably Trends toward authoritarianism. But they aren’t the same thing that’s just silly. Though if you can explain how a governing state built on something like total/absolute consent is authoritarian/oppressive, I’m all ears.
You’re not making sense. If you are you the enemy of the state, why are you pretending that non-authoritarian states exist?
They obviously don’t. A state literally can’t be built on total/absolute consent unless it’s populated by the Borg. There will always be internal opposition that needs to be repressed by authority and coerced into obedience to maintain order. Hence, gibberish.
That’s not what authoritarianism is at all.
It absolutely is: prisons, police, borders, it’s all authoritarian. There can’t be such a thing as a non-authoritarian state, because if there was it would be quickly overthrown by people willing to impose authority.
I’ll at least respect anarchists for being consistent. Anyone who pretends “not me tho I’m different” is a hypocrite.
There can’t be such a thing as a non-authoritarian state, because if there was it would be quickly overthrown by people willing to impose authority.
Ok, cool, and then what. Not sure what do you bring to the table here? Water is wet. Fork found in the kitchen.
Then you realize you’re a hypocrit who won’t do anything to oppose the government now. Having you usher in another set of authoritarian dipshits that you happen to agree with doesn’t help. The good news is yall are too feckless to usher in anything.
So maybe we can effect change in the system now.
If every voter had a mamdani to choose at home maybe things get better.
They only do this because they’re too scared to fly a confederate or Nazi flag.
Capitalist libertarians have always truly been fascists. Their entire ideology is rooted in Social Darwinism.
If there was a god or higher being, especially karma or universal reciprocity, the first people to die because of social Darwinism would be the ones propagating social Darwinism.
I think the new-world screwworm presents a strong case that any omniscient, omnipotent creator god is malevolent.
I’m tired of repeating myself, but Stockholm syndrome is pure Copaganda bullshit.

I saw a “don’t tread on me” license plate but the snake was covered by a police department sticker 😭
This feels very Pennsylvania for some reason.

To have cognitive dissonance there has to be some semblance of cognition. They can follow all these conflicting beliefs because there has been zero thought put in to it, literally zero. Nobody has forced them to engage their brain so it’s an atrophied reactionary toddler level turd living between their ears.
No step on snake!
no snek on snek
It’s the gubment that’s evil, and the police protect us from the leftists.
