Bubba Copeland shot himself in front of police on Friday, days after he begged 1819 News not to expose his private life.

    So you’re not one of the white people that think indigenous people would be in the moral right to go around killing you, right? Because a lot of leftists have adopted that absolute batshit position for some reason, which is frankly both kind of racist, and also ignores what indigenous people want…

      I’m not a moralist, so it really depends on the context of why white people are being killed.

      Is this random and undirected violence against whitey? Then no, I don’t support that, because it’s not productive or constructive.

      Is this strategic violence that’s aimed at achieving political aims? Is this being directed by a revolutionary party? Well. That’s different.

        The best context I can give you without memory or without sources is that it is all Twitter leftism, the best kind of leftism. I don’t expect you to take a particular side in something I’m just relaying to you, I just wanted to make sure you weren’t one of those types.

          Twitter X.com isn’t real life. People tend to take extreme positions because that’s what creates engagement and because they can only express themselves through text (and because it’s fun.)

          Like, I’ll vibe with Tweets Xits about “unlimited genocide on the first world!” but I don’t take that shit seriously. Until they actually do anything I don’t believe a word of it.

            Why though? Remember the “Kill all men” type of feminist that became unironic TERFs?

                You think it was wise to let unironic man-haters into a community with the ultimate goal of treating you as a subhuman?

                  Into… what community?

                  Also I can’t help but notice how JK Rowling is a terf despite not ever saying we should kill all men? It doesn’t have anything to do with man hating - they hate trans folk specifically.

                  And furthermore, I know lots of people that would post “kill all men” and are anti-terf.

                  Also, you’re conflating gender with anticolonial struggle and that doesn’t even make any sense?

                  Basically your entire point is going over my head right now. You need to really spell this out.

                    She sees trans women as men and sees them as a threat, citing her experience as an assault survivor as a validator for her belief system.

                    Misandry is a huge contributor to TERFs hatred of trans women, and it often boils down to their obsession with genitalia. Man = penis = evil. I’ve read enough nutty radfem literature to see that.

                    And sure, committing genocide is bad. I’m comparing two bad things, evil intent informed by bigotry, ostensibly acceptable because the people doing it are a minority and thus cannot cause harm to someone else.

                    Malema can want ethnic genocide because he’s black or something.

                    Israel can want ethnic genocide because they’re surrounded by hostile nations, and besides, that little bit of land is theirs anyway.

                    And by Israel, I meant Germany post WWI. And by that, I also meant Russia. Blood and soil, right?
