for real. they should be LITERALLY AND PHYSICALLY SCREAMING in the halls. When told “how unprofessional” they should respond with “my opponents are fascists. fuck professionalism.”

BUT since they are not burning shit down, one can only assume they are in on the fascism too.

What does that have to do with elected officials not using the power they've been granted?

"Shouting in the hallways"?

[–] flandish@lemmy.world 3 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

a) where I can, yes. b) local politics, I am involved in. but i am not an elected federal official with ability to affect change and choice to not do it c) i serve the mutual aid part of my mindset as a first responder over 20 years now d) and finally I support systems who help others learn and grow.

are you?

What have you burned down? Sounds like you’re mostly working within the system to improve it and being a reasonable professional serving the greater good in the best way you know, which is (apparently) lame.

lol. physically burning things down - as a firefighter i tend to do the opposite. but holding people accountable in a public forum like our dumb selectmen meetings and such - yes, I have done. i do not have the financial freedom to cane a fascist in the halls like the good ole days.
