oh it's not limited to it, but it's where i've been seeing it personally lately.

people often have a weird laticework of beliefs, even when it's not related to "defund" motions. Such as "yes cops should be catching speeders, but only the 'really bad' ones, not me, but not with cameras"

Not but really, it's weird, there's a subset of people who always comment on some nextdoor posts "no, hire more cops instead of making our streets safer"

But how would they justify hiring more cops

@thismachinekillsfascists.bike check out this winey bullshit.

My city has been doing all sorts of urbanist shit, and these winey ass losers come are constantly like "it's ugly". And this clearly isn't. But also they never complain about ugly ass street parking.

To be clear, I'm not saying "today the day to take up the street", just a bit funny.

Whose streets. Our streets rings a bit hollow when we're hiding on the state capitol sidewalk and lawn instead of occupying the street

If there's two things I'm sure of, we hate ice and apperently love the show/manga one piece.

The great thing about the phrase "with all due respect" is that it doesn't actually require you give any respect that isn't due.

Honestly, it's nice sometimes to discover you're not the only one. I've googled things and been shocked to find literally zero evidence of anyone saying it or thinking it.

like, if they're mad about people being upset about "protein" being a phrase on every product ever now, that's news to me to some degree. If I had a guess they're upset about soy protein and stuff being in things.

they don't want an end to "the war on protein" it's about animal products yeah?

It's so weird that RFK declared an end of "the war on protein" because it's like, obviously not true, which a lot of people have said.

But it's even weirder because like, that seems so orthogonal to what they want. It's like if Trump announced an end to the "war on happy holidays"
