If you're not going in harm's way, you shouldn't call yourself a "warrior" of any kind. Malala Yousafzai got shot for daring to advocate that girls should be taught to read. The Canadian parliament attracted a shooter for giving her Canadian citizenship (or so it's presumed -the timing suggests it strongly).
Internet death threats from pathetic losers just aren't the same thing as taking on the Taliban. The risk may be non-0, but iit's problebly lower than the risk of driving to the event.
No. You cannot say "we're a country of low violent crime except for all the violent criminals".
I'll bet you see the fallacy in that argument.
But this involves TECHNOLOGY so it must be evil because without TECHNOLOGY there would be other possible way for the folks at the airport to calculate how long you might be waiting in line.
No siree, no way at all. You standing there, in full view of every person, in a public space. No way to check. None at all.
The GOP isn't any more pro capitalist than the Dems. They just like a different set of cronies.
Yes, the GOP -- as a whole -- does pay off its cronies. But there are a significant number of prominent Republicans in office who oppose these practices (e.g., Scott Walker). There is not a significant number of Dems who oppose these practices. Further, the Republicans' policies are generally much more pro-capitalist (against raising the minimum wage, against collective bargaining with govt employees, and so on).
So
I'm sorry but the best we can do is 1:1 scale, it doesn't enlarge.
p.s. And I don't mean to imply anything like I think it's like Lefties' stupid idea of a "hate crime", where somehow the crime is worse if there's something more sinister going on behind it. The damage is the damage, so the crime is the crime. Being primarily motivated by trashing the system versus primarily by empowering oneself doesn't make the crime any worse. It just means there's something additional the voters ought to be watching out for from that "representative".
If you don't like it, you probably shouldn't be on it.
