    There are plenty of innocent people who will be hurt by this. Yeah, thoughts and prayers for the immuno-compromised who willed be murdered by these fucks. The south isn’t fucking a monolith and you treating it like one helps them get away with shit like this

        I’m sure you think you’re cute but 1) phrasing it this was isn’t actually legally protecting you and 2) “commit murder or you deserve to die” is a deranged response to seeing people living in disease-ridden places because the medical professionals they interact with literally aren’t allowed to encourage them to get the flu shot.

          We both know nothing is going to happen, at least I am presenting options. What are your options? Hopes and prayers? Protest? Those things haveclearly worked in the past. You can take it to arranged, but I know which way to direct the out of control trolley car while you sit backand do absolutely nothing.

            My option is direct mutual aid. Your option is masturbating furiously online about who you want to see get killed. We are not the same.

                You’re literally asking how direct mutual aid improves anyone’s life?

                lol.

                  I think what they’re saying is your “mutual aid” amounts to thoughts and prayers. The people making decisions for humanity need to be removed immediately.

                    If you think mutual aid is thoughts and prayers you have a warped view of what it is.

              I don’t think being like you is something a person should aspire to be. And therefore, they are better than you.

                If you think nobody should give mutual aid to struggling people instead of shitting down their throat about how they deserve it because of where they live, then I doubt you have anything productive to say ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Thank you! As a southerner who is very progressive, comments like this really piss me off.

      You can’t lower yourself to their level of ignorance, you makes you no better than the people you’re deriding.
