Wirh the clarification that the toxic idealist demands perfection. But since all action is imperfect, they do nothing. And somehow believe they are being moral while sitting back and making impotent self-aggrandizing judgments of those who do act. Utterly pathetic people with some sort of personality disorder

Oh stop your narcissistic whataboutist bullshit. No one is buying for a second that you didn't know Trump bend over for Israel and bomb the shit out of Palestine while fucking over Ukraine for Putin. Just be honest you worthless troll. It's what you wanted.

And YES. In this instance, US minorities ARE more important. It is difficult to save others when you are dying. Put on your own oxygen mask first, stupid.

@Npars01 @txtx @mike805 @benroyce @Photo55 @roblosricos I hope Ukraine manages to kill ALL of Putin's oil export while crude is trading so high, so as to maximize the lost opportunity caused by Putin's imperialism.

If Trump doesn't want $10 a gallon gasoline prices he can stop his war on Iran at any time.

@pliny @benroyce It’s been my experience that the people who are claiming all existing options are bad have not been putting in the time and effort to create the additional option that they claim is vastly superior.

They’ve probably been doing nothing, while claiming to be morally superior to the existing choices. But people who are doing nothing aren’t moral at all.

And sometimes they get upset when that gets pointed out.

A lot of what's going on in MAGA world can be seen as a fossil fuel industry determined to keep its hegemony.

Wars that profit donors & personal profiteering

The public corruption to pick the 'winners' in the economy

@benroyce Big fan of a thing that came up in your posts the other day: “Morality Without Action Is Not Morality”.

That’s the sort of thing I really hope spreads around more.

Ukraine is defending itself by going after the fossil fuel funding of Putin's wars. A just act.

Trump is defending the funding behind his fascist movement. An unjust act.
