im stuck between hating the appeal to the masses move by Thor and missing the opportunity to put down Chris. tough call.


The only opportunity here to put me down is just group bullying, sort of how the liberals did during the political campaign...

Doesn't mean he is right though, idk why he thinks he can judge my use of harassment as a non-use of the word when it clearly has a use that he himself described.

edit: You could describe somebody with shitty poetry if you wanted to.

Idk, you are making this a big deal. You disagree with how I used harassment, that is fine.
My main point is how he is using his platform in a negative way for his purpose...
It was just a random comment either without much comment. I'm not your enemy or rival here man, I don't care about you that much and you really don't intellectually stimulate me so I don't want to sit here and tease you either.


How is kneeling in respect peacefully for police brutality awareness negative

It's only negative because conservatives lie and pretend its disrespecting things the act and cause have nothing to do with

It is negative because a lot of people see it as an affront to the flag. This is the point where he abandons that ideal and uses that focus on him to using a more appealing focus for police brutality awareness.

It's not about disrespecting the flag or military

That narrative is weaponized fake news to fire up conservatives that aren't generally well informed

That's not the fault of protesters

You call it snowflake feelings but it is actually a solid foundation of feelings. Those sort of feelings have existed far longer than any of the new feelings that are coming up in our society. If you truly want to appeal to people and change their minds you compromise, not rub it in their faces.

No, that is not how it is seen. People see the motion itself as an affront to the flag, and the cause he does it for doesn't really matter.
The only way it wouldn't be seen as an affront if he did it as a sign of even more respect to those who have represented and created freedom. That is how it is viewed. You can't change a norm and narrative and say it is fake news just because the purpose isn't even against the flag or freedom.
