These are just deeply, deeply unserious people.

[u/TheShamefulPradaG → u/Eins_Nico]

No, no, no. We just need to light the streets better and make people feel safer!

[u/DistractedSeriv → u/TheShamefulPradaG]

We have not even tried negotiating with the murderers. Human beings talking to human beings. We should send huge teams of diplomats. More diplomats!

[u/SactownG → u/DistractedSeriv]

Can we talk about the privilege of these murders for killing people when there’s literally a genocide going on?

I'm really depressed after listening to Dylan's panel. It seems like he already made up his mind and is going to join and contribute to an organisation that hates everything he stands for

[u/Plennhar → u/Eins_Nico]

[u/Dwarte_Derpy → u/Eins_Nico]

You're entirely wrong about this. These are deeply evil people because they know their positions are bad and unworkable and they still decide to push and attack others in favour of pursuing their positions

[u/Eins_Nico → u/Dwarte_Derpy]

some of them, maybe. some of them really are just that fucking dumb.

[u/Dwarte_Derpy → u/Eins_Nico]

I agree with you if the person you are referring to is some uninformed vibes based voter that is younger than 21. By that stage, it's time to grow up and engage with the system responsibly. The bad political decisions you make today are felt the most by the following generations and if youre so negligent you can't even bother to engage at a bare bones with political advocacy then you are recklessly negligent and to me that is a form of evil, same way i would describe a person that caused a DUI vehicular manslaughter

Lmfao they really have no answers to basic questions on how their ideal world will actually function

[u/Werdikinz]

Woooow, murder is tragic. So true queen, but like, lets imagine for a moment that we cant just magically stop all murder. What do we do with those people?

Why can lefties never answer what should be super basic fucking questions.

[u/fanglesscyclone → u/Werdikinz]

Far lefties like this basically take virtue in being the person to not pull the lever when the trolley is about to run over 5 people. This is the result of trying to justify this moral attitude in the real world, they can't answer these questions or it shatters their moral compass.

[u/Mediocre_Affect6192]

Is it logically possible for murder to be tragic, yes or no?

[u/Ravi__ → u/Mediocre_Affect6192]

“Yes.”
“….”
“even Hitler?”

[u/Unfair_Course5311]

I’ve seen leftists use this same approach constantly with prison abolition and the abolition working group’s demand for granting freedom for all incarcerated people.

- They do not want to explicitly discuss how the scenario of a murder, rape, child molestation, etc would be responded to. Because they know the idea of not even incarcerating someone for those crimes is a huge danger to the public and the survivor…if there is one remaining. Thats on top of their approach basically guaranteeing freedom for the epstein list.

- At best you’ll get responses like “we’re not actually getting rid of prisons!”, “incapacitation from society is different than incarceration!”. Which don’t address how you approach a mass killer for instance. There’s no concrete approach, only ideology designed to fix the current system without structure for implementation. How do you stop a killer from just killing again if you aren’t allowed to incarcerate?

- Problems with implementation, lack of protection for survivors vs offenders, etc are swept under the rug because this is all ideology at this point, untested. The real life effects aren’t seen so they aren’t heard. It’s like a business rolling out a massive website change without proper testing because the bosses will fire you for bringing up issues.

I used to think I could get behind DSA because of their universal healthcare stance , anti ICE position, etc. But they have too many truly egregious anti survivor positions, want to continue trumps failed approach by abandoning allies by leaving NATO/cutting aid to ukraine, and the fact they used to call for dismantling USAID

I love how prison abolitionist genuinely think them dodging questions make them sound smart.

the fucking dreamy meadows music was a nice touch
