What I don't understand is what harm is being reduced by doing "harm reduction"? I get maybe one or two election cycles the candidate isn't ideal but after decades of horrible candidates that increasingly become more right wing over time it seems that no real harm is being reduced. Working class people are are still starving under Biden and likely will under Kamala, simultaneously the Capitalist class continues to aquire obscene amounts of wealth. Meanwhile we're all supposed to go along with the idea that Neoliberalism is the only option while so called "radical leftists" (social democrats and social liberals) are too extreme for government. This election cycle we're offered a candidate that has promised to encourage fracking, likley will not offer any federal protections for women and other minorities, openly supports Israel, and is overall a spineless corrupt career politican that for some reason we're all supposed to nod our heads to and say "yup shes the face of the American left". If we keep doing "harm reduction" soon we will all be reduced to nothing.
Thats like saying all lives matter specifically after an African American gets brutally killed by a cop. Obviously all lives matter but its simply not the time nor place when the conversation was about hate crime against African Americans. In this case its absolutely distasteful to say "all rape is bad" when the topic is specifically about a female victim and a male perpetrator.
Its a tough choice but I actually despise the ATF the most out of all the three letter glowie organizations. Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms should be the name of a convenience store not a federal department.
Its comparing apples and oranges. Or in this case a series of sci-fi shows and a series of space fantasy movies.
Its accurate, they're armed settler colonialists
"Erm akshurally but do you condemn Hummus. Its simple you're antisemitic, you hate democracy, you hate freedom, and clearly you're a Russian bot." -☝️🤓
They aren't very comparable, different genres, completely different stories, different methods of storytelling, and completely different mediums (yes star trek has movies and star wars has shows, star trek is still primarily a series of shows while star wars is primarily a series of movies).
In my opinion the rough edges give the show charm and character, theres a certain magic to imperfection
Despite making massive mistakes and not being able to explain myself (autism sucks sometimes) I have not forgotten about this community. I hoped that by stepping down it would being this community back, looking in retrospect I was extremely mistaken and for that I apologize. In the near future I am willing to retake my spot as the head moderator (with community approval).
To clarify: I am requesting community feedback from anyone who wants to bring back this community
I have decided that new moderator (including a new head moderator) are needed for the future of this community. I will step back into the position of moderator that I had previously held. If enough people demand I will consider stepping down completely. I apologize for any harm that I have caused to this community.
Its gives this error:
{"data":{"msg":"Required command ffprobe not found, make sure it exists in pict-rs' $PATH","files":null},"state":"success"}
It appears every time I upload an image
I have chosen to abandon all the major changes I had planned. This post will be used for feedback and suggestions. Since I'm the only mod I need community feedback.
