“Peaceful revolution impossible makes violent revolution inevitable” people when violent revolution starts (👁 ͜ʖ👁)

I love the paranoia of you nerds. It’s valid but idk how you spare the effort.

Thank you

Derail a thread with a small side suggestion. That’s a lot of pushback to a small request. Almost like you actively wish to not have enslaved people humanized in conversation.

You can always just not say it yourself. To actively try and start fights about it implies malice.

Changing the language you use about a thing changes your perception of that thing. This is data driven reality of making small changes to the way you talk actively changes the thought process on it. You can be lazy and not do it, it’s your own language. But that’s all your doing. Being lazy, or actively reactionary.

Seems a lot of people here are against the humanizing of enslaved people’s. Weird.

God forbid someone on a thread based system bring up a related topic on the side. Like, is that really your complaint? Oh no guys, the humanization of enslaved people’s is derailing this 3rd person’s quip. Quick, we must stop him!

Silly billy you are.

It’s just good to reinforce the idea that enslaved people’s were people who were enslaved. Not a profession, slave was not their job, it was their status.

Plus studies have shown that by using these people first language, especially while teaching the subject, results in higher empathy for enslaved people and reminds that their status as a slave was one forced upon them and continually so rather than the simple status they were born with.

It’s not a huge problem or anything, but it isn’t hard to toss in every now and then and only does good.

Small suggestion to use “enslaved people’s” rather than “slaves”

Current world order sucks

Let’s goo

So because smallpox killed more than us, all the genocide we 100% did didn’t matter? What an argument. Trail of tears dumbass. Stealing children to force into boarding schools dumbass. Reservations dumbass. Near extermination of the Buffalo.

Fun fact. It is illegal in most cases to marry outside your culture in Israel. Basically illegal to race mix, though more complicated than that. Also Israel does not recognize gay marriage. I don’t care if Lebanon has worse rules. We don’t call an apartheid state valid for being at 1900 Jim Crow standards .

I remember some kinda skit about sci Fi authors writing about how bad a torture matrix would be ironically inspiring real people to create the torture matrix cause it’s the future.

Damn, I didn’t know that millions of dead native Americans were required for electricity to be invented. Who knew that without that genocide no human being would of ever come up with the cell phone. It’s like you believe that if we didn’t murder millions of natives that all human progress would of stopped

Manifest destiny was legal too. Tell it to the native American Indians that we got it legally. When you start talking legal and not moral, it’s because you know you have lost that morality.

Bout 80 years actually. The current conflict is settler colonists fighting natives. The religious justification is just that, justification with no history support. Just classic colonization and ethnic cleansing of natives.

I get that, like I said, I respect the pacifism, but can you at least not accept the validity of self defence in the face of genocide? Even if you were to accept that you yourself never could bring yourself to that? I took don’t believe I could kill a person over it, but I do not blame those who have been pushed to that point of that makes sense
