  • Just for discussions sake, where does vigilantism end, though?

    If this guy wasn’t recording everything and making a youtube channel out of it, I’d be much less interested in asking that question.

    I’m also of the opinion that the tv show COPs was misguided and shouldn’t have existed. None of my opinions here are excuses for predators. I just find packaging up and “selling” the effort to be an indication of conflicting motives. And that makes me inclined to see the companies point about vigilantes, laws about entrapment, or whatever. Etc.





  • Can you write up the logic chain that made you assume I think any particular law is good for society, let alone the one you focused on?

    All I was commenting on was the idea that conservatives are the ones crying “we live in a society” and not progressives. I’ve always considered progressive ideas to be more in touch with “we live in a society!” Than conservatives who want to punish and suppress marginalized groups who are, in fact, part of society.

    What the hell man?

    “Fuck you I got mine” is not considering others and ignores that we live in a society. And that’s what these conservative leaders are all about.

    Corporations having no responsibility for the environment and the communities they are part of is a conservative ideal. It does not support society.

    I noted the environmental laws because they were exceptions, and look a bit surprising in retrospect. When one learns Nixon passed major environmental laws, they are often surprised.

    Oh wait, are you here to say those environmental laws, things like the clean air act are just tools of control over the common man. Clean air and water is oppression?






  • Hmm, I’ve never seen someone directly link conservatism to the entire concept of society.

    I didn’t know considering societal conditions was conservative. But I guess conservative leaders in the US did implement a lot of environmental protections. 🤔

    Where does the line actually fall, do you think? I assume I’m over extending a bit here. Making assumptions about what you mean.
