@eng1 as I mentioned in my earlier post, the increase in crime was a direct result of deindustrialization and subsequent job loss/economic difficulties experienced by working class people, and it is cheaper to hire a gang of thugs to protect the rich from the desperate than it is to build and...

@Tamerlane we must be the change we seek. It's totally fair and important to scrutinize movements and organizations; at the end of the day I know things won't change for the better unless people push for it, and I know that I want to be someone who fights for what I believe. I understand a lot...

@firelight @sterven I'm not sure what "group" you think I'm a part of, I'm not trying to speak for anyone but myself. @firelight I agree with a lot of the issues you pointed out--particularly about our awful education system, lack of employment and a UBI (I think something like Alaska's...

Unless black lives matter, all lives do not matter. It's a small gesture but I stand in solidarity with all our black sisters, brothers and nonbinary folk out there, many of which read manga here on the dex. Protest if you can, do jail support if you can, or donate to places like the National...

@gatordreams16 I agree. Not surprised but not impressed. Privilege is being able to choose whether or not to care if others live or die since it can't possibly affect you. All lives can't matter until black lives matter.

@mahtan It's true that Amelia probably wouldn't have taken action if her sister were not there, in fact I never claimed that Amelia was virtuous or infallible. As I said before, perhaps Amelia even saw those parts of herself she hated most in many of the civilians she murdered: individual...

ok to recap, - amelia became hunted by nobles for saving her sister, who was literally kidnapped and raped by nobles - her hunter comrades, who were the only people she could rely on, deserted her - nobody else helped them escape the country or find refuge - amelia still managed to somehow...

@Notsuki_Ame I think it is misleading to claim that any large organization does not have political motivations, not sure if that was a translation decision or in the original text, after all the queen correctly identifies that the church's power is challenged by her proposal.

> the temples have nothing to do with politics > they feel endangered by a political proposal

i wish her nickname were livy, livia doesn't roll off the tongue

chattel slavery only ended because abolitionists organized against it. Regardless of the context under which you find yourself, you always have the ability to condone or reject systems of power and oppression. Disappointing but unsurprising that Rudy chose to not only be complacent but actually...

@ZeonII for sure there was a lot of good in the soviet union and i alluded to that in my previous comment i think. but i am still not down for authoritarianism because of the real human costs. I don't know enough to confidently suggest an alternative would have been possible for that period of...
