I've been struggling for over a month, 3.14.2 has been a hell of a snake

@maaikees

On the 2nd quarter of this century we can predict that the characteristic that most describes its international political climate is unimaginable levels of hypocrisy

@actapopuli

Also in the sociological studies that non-violent protests finally claiming victories, MANY lives were lost of non-violent activists by the violent forces of repression. So we can not say non-violence when it is one-sided.

@gubi

> violence in Ukraine is not one-sided. Is coming from Russia AND USA.

You begin your comments with

> trying to understand if you are an anti-militarist human being or a russian propaganda spambot

And I had been banned by a couple of servers for trying to get this point through

Look around fediverse on #Russia #Ukraine

One sided propaganda only allowed (99% US/EU servers) everything else has been banned and deleted

And that is Violence

@gubi

My dearest of all fellow debaters on fediverse,

inequality can only be maintained through violence, the capacity of, the potential use of, the threat of, and no other way.

I am 100% against violence and 1000% for discussion and negotiation among rational parties. But I am not forcing inequality or attempting to maintain it.

If you are sincere about social change you have to come to terms with this, it is called reality!

@gubi

You are saying there is non-violent struggle against a very violent establishment? In none of those examples was there lack of violence, just passivity to accept violence by certain actors.

One sided violence always has victims, right? Who decided who the victims would be, who sacrificed others for the overall benefit of the cause?

That is what separates an authoritarian vanguard from those struggling under libertarian principles.

Let them decide

@gubi

@gubi That mean nothing, a catchy phrase in recent times but empty of any rational content.

Do I need to define force of gravity as mass x acceleration of gravity?

What does it mean for someone saying I agree to disagree? If something is not as objectively defined it requires further discussion.

Reality is still reality no matter how it is described or perceived.

That is where rational discussion comes in, together with open minds to convince or be convinced.

The international justice system is too small, it needs more funds and to hire more staff, and most likely buildings in a more neutral part of the world

@actapopuli

and when it comes to fighting for the exploited and the oppressed, against fascism/capitalism, I AM NOT AN ANTI-MILITARIST

Lives need to be defended from bullies

@gubi

unfortunately I am mortal and pretty old to be playing such games

freedom of speech and thought should be encouraged not channeled into little containers

especially in days like this where gangster nations attack abduct and steal from the poor like it is 1492
