In relation to this, thinking about a new community for Political Activism. Calls to action, that kind of thing.

The rules would be super simple:

  1. Purpose is for protest organizing. [Country, City, State]

  2. Absolutely no calls for violent action.

  3. No links to fundraisers. Too rife for fraud and abuse. Stories about fundraisers would be fine, but no GoFundMes, etc.

Think there's room for PolticalActivism?

If you want to debate, stick to facts instead of random personal claims

    Oh, I’m not debating, Mr. Vance. This isn’t a debate, there is no evidence, there’s no arguments.

    I’m harassing you for being a fascist.

    Fascism always loses in the end. Turns out, only fascists want to live under fascism. Everyone else will fight back. :)

    Claiming there’s “no evidence” while refusing to engage with evidence isn’t moral clarity — it’s opting out of thinking.

    Ah yes, you know your rules of debate and argument well.

    It’s just, well, that (and the whole outspoken fascist thing, let’s be real) won’t win you any affection or interest at parties, won’t endear you to anybody else, but hey, your role model Stephen has an office down the hall, and he’s just as lonely and extremely racist and fascist as you are! If he’s in the White House, just like you, then maybe you could make something of yourself.

    Does Erica Kirk feel like a couch on the inside?

    Personal insults aren’t arguments — they’re what people use when they don’t have one.

    Argument this, argument that, all you ever fucking do is argue.

    Trash talk ≠ legal analysis. Try again if you want a discussion.

    I don’t want legal analysis. I want to mock you because you chose fascism instead of actual strength and community. You could have picked something great, like love and respect, but you went with spinelessness and bootlicking.

    Mockery doesn’t change reality. You’re free to assign labels and cast moral judgments, but that doesn’t turn disagreement into fascism or debate into weakness. If you want to discuss ideas instead of trading insults, that’s a conversation I can have. Otherwise, this is just performance.

    Honestly, folk around here don’t like your fascist fuckery. I bet you’d be well received in the White House press room where you belong, Mr. Vance. Barring that, the sack of makeup and Diet Coke you keep in the Oval Office has a platform called Truth Social, where you can advocate for people getting shot by ICE all day long.

    Fuck off.

    Fuck your "debate". It is unquestionable that Renee was murdered. You are a fascist piece of shit.

    If something is “unquestionable,” it should be easy to explain without insults. Calling it murder doesn’t make it so — that’s a legal conclusion that depends on evidence, intent, and the standard for self-defense. You’re free to be angry. You’re not entitled to replace facts with abuse and call that certainty.

    NO. I reject your sanewashing bullshit, because it is both falsehood and in service to evil.

    I watched the videos. From every damn angle before and after Johnathan Ross killed Renee. He knew what he was doing, and had absolutely no remorse for what he did. He killed someone, and fled the scene of the crime.

    You have no integrity, "Liberty Forever". The only liberty you possess is the kind that is completely void of morality, that wants to be free of consequence and justice. No different from Trump, Noem, Kash, and so many other horrible people that are leading my nation into destruction and suffering. You are a monster just like them, the only difference being that you lack their authority to hurt people.

    Your words must be called out for what they are: deceitful and malicious.

    You’re stating certainty about intent, motive, and state of mind that you cannot actually prove from video footage alone. That’s not “calling out evil,” it’s replacing legal standards with moral conviction. Watching videos — even from multiple angles — does not establish premeditation, lack of remorse, or criminal intent. Those are precisely the things that investigations, testimony, and courts exist to determine. Declaring them settled because you feel certain isn’t justice; it’s a shortcut around it. You’re free to believe the actions were reckless, wrong, or deserving of discipline or reform. But branding disagreement as “malicious” or “evil” doesn’t strengthen your case — it just signals that you’ve moved from argument to accusation. If this discussion requires demonization instead of evidence, then there’s nothing productive left to say.

    Her final words and what we see in the footage are heartbreaking and deserve compassion. But resolving whether this was justified use of force requires a careful legal and factual investigation — not just emotional reaction or viral clips.
