I think America has enough vegetables

It’s the escalating culture of public acceptance

• first you accept disagreement
• then accept disgust
• then accept name calling
• then accept lying about facts
• then accept pushing people
• then accept striking people
• then accept beating people
• then accept maiming people
• then accept killing people
  … I think we are at his level right now … but knowing human stupidity and our long history of this sort of thing … we’ll keep escalating the violence
• we’ll probably go on to murdering people
• go on to rounding up people for death
• go on to just killing whoever is left just to remove all witnesses and anyone that might come back to continue the fighting

None … it’s always OK to punch a Nazi … and its also OK to punch a Nazi sympathizer

This is the equivalent of that obnoxious kid in the neighbourhood saying they’re taking their basketball home and no one can play basketball any more … then after he leaves, someone else brings another basketball anyway.

Make … (cough, cough, cough) … America … (cough, HACK, ACK) …Great … (cough, hack, wheeze, cough, hack)… Again

The Chinese government sitting around the phone with the US on hold …“how long should we make them wait?”

“Give them another hour, it’s already been two” (another round of belly busting laugher)

America: … (pretending to make static sounds, muffling their voice like it’s a bad connection)… WHAT’S THAT??! … we’ve got a bad connection … did you say … BOMB THEM MORE? … (keeps pretending to make static sounds)

The thing that probably scared Turnip is not WWIII but rather the idea that free for all assassinations would mean that he would be one of the first to get shot at.

Angry old men … ruling the biggest countries in the world … and all of them not caring what they are going to do or not do because they’re going to be dead or senile or incapable to do anything within the next ten years.

BSOD

Bombed Spiral Of Death

If they’re firing slugs that can break through industry rated safety glasses … those same slugs can break through your skull.

If they’re using munitions like that … then they’re using lethal rounds and no safety glasses will help.

Paintballers and airsofters

Great point … wear any paintball gear you might have

And if you are targeted for wearing anything … what would you rather have? Be arrested for wearing gear - or lose your eyesight because you wore no gear.

I’ve worked in construction and building for many years and from time to time I had to get safety training.

Basically, any small object that is moving fast enough is dangerous. It’s not so bad if it hits your skin but it is absolutely dangerous if it flies anywhere on your head and face. You can lose eyes, teeth, hearing even have objects fly into your mouth and the soft parts of your throat and mouth. Remember that your face is basically an airbag to protect your skull - your brain doesn’t care what happens to your face because if anything damages the face or eyes, it will save the brain - so you might survive a shot to the face but does it really matter if you’re blind or maimed in the mouth, nose or ears. In war time, soldiers have been known to blow off the entire face, jaw, nose, eyes and all and still survive.

The world is insane … we have OSHA standards that regulate what can or can’t be done in a work zone to keep people safe from harm and even death

But when it comes to dealing with people in a public protest … all that safety goes out the window as police are allowed to fire small objects at unsafe speeds into people’s bodies and faces! Onto unsuspecting people with no training, knowledge or wherewithal to know that they should at least wear safety glasses.

To add emphasis to this because I really worry about these young people, here’s something I wrote in another thread …

Safety glasses … any time you join a protest these days … wear safety glasses … any kind will do because it will give you a fighting chance at saving your eyesight.

So many protests over the past few years have featured police forces aiming munitions, tear gas and other projectiles at people’s faces on purpose. These projectiles won’t kill you but if they hit your face can severely wound you or destroy your eyes and blind you.

Wounding people as opposed to killing people is also a psychological tool used by security forces. If they hurt, maim or even cause people to bleed … then it has a psychological toll on those who see it. An even greater psychological hit for anyone would be to see a healthy strong, vibrant young 20 year old man losing both his eyes and blinded while everyone witnesses it and tries to help. It might only directly hurt one person but the event would psychologically affect dozens or even a hundred people who see it.

One of the saddest stories I ever saw was the story of 20 year old Gustavo Gatica in 2019 who was part of a protest against the government in Chile. Police were actively shooting at protesters’ faces on purpose blinding many people in one eye. Gustavo was hit in both eyes and was rendered completely blind.

It’s one of the saddest and most infuriating images I’ve seen in a long time … no matter where you are and you want to join a protest … wear safety glasses and save your eyes. Police might not try to aim for your face but if they do, they’ll just make the excuse that you shouldn’t have been there in the first place and blame you for your injuries.

I’ll keep repeating this because I think it’s important

Wear safety glasses

Not sunglasses, or shades or prescription glasses

Wear actual industrial rated workers safety glasses.

If you get those shots in your face, you’re going to lose an eye or both eyes. Safety glasses are designed for this kind of stuff and they actually work. It will stop those projectiles from damaging your eyes.

Cops all over the world are known to purposefully shoot people’s faces and heads. After the fact they will just argue that it didn’t happen, it was accidental, it was chaotic, it was dangerous, etc, etc … it won’t matter after the fact if you lose an eye or end up completely blind.

Wear safety glasses, they’re easy to find and easy to use.

No one in power cares what average people think … even if it is an overwhelming majority of the population

All these people in power care about is what rich wealthy people think and what corporate leaders and investors think

It’s a world run on money … not on democratic consensus.

It’s not people who can’t handle debating Gaza. It’s our corporate controlled politicians who are more beholden to money than in representing their own country.

No … Mother Earth is going to put a tariff on our lungs

It was … wait for it … Blattened!
