@korsier So, you've got nothing relevant to say, because according to Kirk himself, they are a reasonable price to pay to maintain the second amendment and therefore the right to defend one's "goddam other rights" with a gun. Well, you know what, murdering Kirk was bad too, but I guess, this part of the reasonable price to pay for the second amendment, and so on....

@korsier oh, by the way, have you anything of any relevance to say about the kids who were killed in a nearby school, on the same day as Charlie Kirk? Or are they just more sad statistics of gun freedom, the price Kirk thought was worth paying (probably never thinking he'd be part of it) for the liberty to buy, carry and use a gun whenever one feels it necessary?

@korsier First, the murderer is a freaking mormon, born in a republican family, fully armed and trained to use gun, and apparently, a great fan of masculinist toxic incels memes from the dark corner world of far-right gamers. He is neither a retard, nor from the left!

Second, lately, most political violences have come from the #extremeright, whether it be the 2021 attempted coup by Trump and a mob of tousands of people invading the Capitol chanting things like "Hang Mike Pience!", or murders.

Wow! I got targeted by one of these #ExtremeRightWing #libertarians they talk so much about online! And of course, he's accusing me of fueling hatred and violence against the poor, poor alpha white males presently dominating US state institutions and politics! Apparently, we are supposed to either mourn their deads or at least shut up! Yeah, these are people calling me and others #psychopath! Well, sorry #snowflake ️, but we won't! Especially, when we are the target of hatred and violence!

@korsier
Charlie Kirk (2023) at TPUSA, on the SLC campus of Awaken Church: «I think it's worth to have a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment [...]. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. Nobody talks like this. They live in a complete alternate universe.» Also Kirk on LGBTQIA+ people: « [...] people should have “just took care of” trans people “the way we used to take care of things in the 1950s and 60s.” »

He died by his own idea.

J'abonde assez dans le sens de @geru , interviewé dans cet article, pour ce qui est de l' #EID sur lequel nous votons le 28 septembre prochain. Quand on compare avec ce qui se fait actuellement en matière d’ #authentification dans l'industrie du #numérique, on peut considérer ce projet comme excellent, même s'il va falloir faire preuve de vigilance quant à sa mise en oeuvre et s'assurer qu'il reste bien un service public, en #foss, contrôlable par les citoyens.

If you find it normal and even legitimate to cause heavy injuries to demonstrators or even kill them, simply because they are disturbing the daily routine of #capitalism and #neoliberalism or refusing to obey a police's order, or if you find it alright to mistreat or even kill so-called " #illegal " #immigrants , then, why are you shocked that people spewing #fascistic #ideologies or even participating in massive #PoliticalViolence can become the target of retaliation by mere lambda individuals?

Like her, I'm sick and tired of hearing all well-known influencers and legacy media claiming that there is no place for #PoliticalViolence in #democracy , that we should all remain calm and polite at all time, including towards people like #CharlieKirk who advocated for the removal of #LGBTQI+ , #WomenRights , #CivilRights for #POC, etc., while ignoring this exact type of #violence exerted almost on a daily basis on all #minorities or even considering it legal and legitimate.

Thank you to @taylorlorenz for this really insightful video about what actual #PoliticalViolence is. As she puts it, we only see it when it impacts powerful and priviledged, often well-known people, not when it is wielded against #minorities, especially when they are poor and socially vulnerable! Nobody calls the mistreatment of racialized demonstrators or immigrants political violence. It's juste considered vaguely more or less unfair violence.

@michaelzemmour justement, j'ai bien eu l'impression que la question de la productivité ne se réduit pas à la quantité de travail ni à son efficacité. Surtout que perso, je ne suis pas en mesure de travailler, étant handicapée.

Du coup, ce genre de discours crée une énorme anxiété chez les gens comme moi qui se sentent pris pour des poids morts, puisque non-productifs.

Est-ce que vous auriez éventuellement des sources littéraires sur ce sujet de la productivité, accessible à des non-initiés?

@michaelzemmour est-ce que vous pensez vraiment que la France ne travaille pas assez et que c'est pour cela que sa #productivité serait en berne (selon ce que j'entends sur LCI, CNews, BFMTV, etc.)? Apparemment, au niveau Européen, elle serait très en dessous de la moyenne. Mais, quel est le prix de la meilleure productivité, disons, au hasard, de l'Allemagne? J'ai trouvé, par exemple, que le taux de #workingpoors y est de près de 23%, contre 5-10% en France, suivant la méthode de calcul.
