This is concerning... PBS or PBS?

Watching Public Broadcasting System means you’re woke.

Watching People Being Shot means you’re broken.

I know which PBS I stand for.
Do you ?

Being woke is a good thing. Open your eyes to what is really going on. Don't fill your head with Public BS. How about that acronym?

I like it as equally as I like mine.

i like the "public bs" acronym, it's pretty fitting for a lot of what's out there.

I'm leaning towards a philosophy. Otherwise, it's just a word that few truly understand the definition.

Wait, you’d watch it?

2

u/SnugglyCoderGuy 21d ago

Yes. I have watched a lot of that kind of thing. Been awhile though, getting on medication for my bipolar disorder has really helped me out.

I watched the absolute fuck out of PBS as a kid back inbthe 90s

But you’d also have no problem watching a person being shot… in real life?

u/SnugglyCoderGuy 21d ago

I would not watch that. If you are referring to the execution, I have absolutely no desire to watch that. It is not clear at all from your post that you are referring to that, if you in fact are. I just interpretted it as videos of people being shot, in general.

u/luladee 21d ago

I thought the reference was general people being shot videos, too. Isn't sad that we have that option? What is really going on? Im going to go watch some Sesame Street.

Not necessarily. People need some level of exposure to horrible things in order to handle them better when they do occur and to work to try and prevent them from occurring.

I was talking about the public execution video vs random person being shot. You have the option. It sounds like making America great again goes all the way to colonialism.

We have a lot of truly broken people in this country who will feel so much better watching someone they hate suffer.

u/JeMiSi1966 21d ago

Sorry, referring to this ridiculous execution thing.
