If these comments are any indicator, it’s working perfectly.
Yep. Hard to admit our reactions are their manipulations. Everyone things everyone but them is the puppet.
Just because it's a manipulation doesn't mean it's always avoidable, though. Like Lex Luthor manipulates Superman by putting Lois Lane's life in danger. Letting Lois die isn't typically a real option. He's got no choice but to play the game because he's a moral person.
Are we supposed to just let LGBTQ people die so we can make inroads on the class war? I don't like it, but that's not a real option either.
No, but we need to learn to work with people we disagree with, even if they disagree on very serious issues that are endangering people's lives. We need to keep having that debate while still working together on other issues.
If we win the culture war, then we can focus all our efforts on the class war. If we abandon the culture war, we lose our allies and betray our principles and become weaker in the class war.
Indeed, what point is a victory if we sacrifice everyone to get it?
Letting Lois die isn’t typically a real option.
The way you phrase that had me literally LOLing.
Man, I hear that, but also... sides were chosen, and it's pretty clear what type of person someone is based on that choice. Half of us can be manipulated AND be selfish cunts at the same time.
Although I dislike that half and at times feel like fighting some of them, I would also still work with them to save ourselves from the ruling class if the opportunity were to arise.
I agree with all of that except fighting them. They are weak in mind and spirited and one should avoid attacking the weak. If they throw the first punch, defend oneself by means but they unlikely to actually do anything.
Despite their head cannon being the left always looks to the government to solve problem. At the heart of it all, the right are the ones desperately looking for the government to save them from their failed lives. Most of them are not interested, willing or able to fight for what they want. It's why they choose strongman personality cults.
Mostly agree. But it's canon, not cannon. A cannon is a big-ass gun. Sorry, I don't like myself either.
