@randahl halleluja brother!

I am not championing airhead optimism
But no, I disagree, I saw airhead pessimism
@benroyce I saw both. I conceive both strategies as a conservation of individual sanity, which is a general human affliction. I prefer not to not judge over individual inner conflicts. Life is quite difficult to get a sense of. Was and is for me at least.
All I am interested in is a realistic strategy on how to shape the world so we all are able to live more and suffer less.
You must remember that no one lives a life free from pain and suffering. (Sophocles)

I will judge them
We're drowning in cowardly spineless cynicism
I fucking despise cynics
Useless fucking whiners
The realistic strategy you seek includes telling these pathetic assholes to shut the fuck up
They have some issues in their lives? Ok. Understandable. How does that give them the right to run their whiny fucking mouths on our serious world problems

@benroyce I deeply commiserate with your anger and the thrive that arises with it. As for many, your motivation is justified. Yet we need to join forces, not divide over inner conflicts.

@randahl I am hoping that the Hungarians will vote him out, I have a memory of our (Luxembourgish) Premier, Juncker in the '90's on meeting him in Brussels, rubbing Orban's head and calling him "our wannabe dictator". As far as I can follow, Putin has lost, and it is beginning to crumble in Russia too, we can learn a lot from the Ukrainians. I have a deep respect for their will and learning power. Let us hope the US rights the situation with votes from more people (also keeping the ballots safe)

@Amorpheus and likewise, that is a noble sentiment. except for the unfortunate detail that all cynics do is whine. there is no force to join because they don't represent a force. they need to be kicked in the ass to make them into a force

@randahl Would be a nice change from the crap that's been going on for like a decade plus at this point.

@connynasch @randahl The slap I know about was in 2015. We hadn't been members of the EU in the 90s and Orbán wasn't showing dictatorical tendencies until like the end of it. (and even then that's mostly "hindsight 20/20" stuff).

@MyRemzi48 @randahl @muod Well if anything he's not young and one can never know if another uprising doesn't happen until then.

@randahl And one more to consider: Big Tech social media platforms have lost their user base.

@benroyce If I were to use any force on the ones I love, only for their desperation and hopelessness as they choose their own path according to their perception, I'd hate myself.
Please forgive me, I might be delusional.
I still believe that the pen is mightier than the sword.

if you kicked your children in the ass, you would be a monster
if your significant other had no fight for you, themselves, both of you together. and they merely whined and whimpered as things drifted worse. and you stayed by their side meekly without pushing back. you would be a fool in toxic codependency with ineffectual impotence
cynicism is acceptance
pessimism is weakness
treat adults like adults

@connynasch @phl @randahl Is it this ??

@randahl After ruZZia is thrown outta Ukraine, it will be interesting, how fast pooty is thrown on the dung heap.

@connynasch @randahl 2020 was terribly long for all of us

@benroyce Tant que je ne vous ressemble pas, rien n'est perdu.
@albert4064 @benroyce Je pense que vous vous êtes trompé de plateforme, cher Albert
Ce n'est pas X. Je suis sûr que là-bas, vous recevrez les applaudissements que vous souhaitez pour vos conneries.
