Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

The most this website knows about the real person who operates the puppet or pseudo-person Signym is an email address (which doesn’t have to be real because this website doesn’t verify addresses before adding them to its database) and a location that is not exact.

Quote:Originally posted by Wishimay: Amen, brother.
Quote: Like what? This is how the post starts: "If you stand against humanity, decency, and mercy... You stand against me."
Quote:And I can and will destroy you if I can. This administration, and those who support it, are in opposition to everything I have ever held dear, and in opposition to everything that was ever humane or decent - should you announce your support, or even admiration for it, then I will consider you below the lowest level of Nazi SS death camp guard, and crush you, personally and professionally, in every damn way I can reach you. You'd be well advised to run now. You've already cost me the very fucking LIVES of some of those I care about, and there will *BE* no mercy, none whatever, and I am DONE talking.
Quote:Why does that make you and SIGNYM so nervous? Are you both against "humanity, decency, and mercy???"

Quote:FOR THE RECORD, NO, I don't agree with Signy on that either. I actually agree with's Second's take that since we're all using pseudonyms here and we're not being doxed and there is no actual ruining of anybody's name taking place that there is no call for any lawsuits here. Had I actually read it, I would have laughed about it because it's just as foolish as anything else the two of you say when you're both being cunts to each other.

Quote:And Sig is just plain fucking lost, worrying about the Warring Wicked Witch. Speculating about who would or would not go to war in any given circumstance IS DELUSIONAL. You CAN'T know and pretending you can is truly NUTZ. 5 star CRAZY.

Quote:Originally posted by 1kiki: Most people here haven't experienced the horrors of war as a civilian. I know I haven't. Depending on age and circumstance, what we know about war comes from WWII or Vietnam movies, news, and maybe some personal accounts of people who fought as soldiers. So, I'm lucky enough I guess, to know someone who was a child hiding behind a stone wall while 50mm rounds were taking it apart from the other side. Who saw a man standing on a bridge blown up in an instant, and the only thing remaining was his boots. Who saw a woman rumored to be on the 'wrong' side, hung upside down and cut with hundreds or thousands of cuts - who he thought was dead, till she opened her eyes and looked at him. Whose grandfather was chained to the cart he was forced to pull, while being strafed. I honestly can't imagine what kind of impact being there would have. For me, war is - still - some distant event. So, I imagine like most people, my empathy for the (mostly brown) people the US has managed to kill and displace over the decades is muted. I've noticed the people here with the strongest, most visceral reaction to Trump are the people who've experienced direct violent abuse by a parent. Trump, I imagine, brings back a lot of feelings, with his smug, demeaning, untouchable persona. The fact that he isn't wholesale bombing (mostly brown) people doesn't even compute. I can understand that reaction to Trump. It seems pretty simple to get.
