@DissidentKitty@radical.town It can't be because we have an entire generation kept as Children, without agency of their own grasping at any strong parental figure to believe in.
Human beings all have a God Shaped Hole in them because their parents put it there when they're little. Atheists will stuff just Anything or Anyone in there, huh?
re: "why are 'good-minded people' ableist as fuck, even in 2019?"
@stackingstones@todon.nl Disabled people are an Inconvenience and throw a wrench in my capatalist worldview that Everyone Can, and Should be fiscally self-sufficient and independent.
Or put more simply: People who are Different make it hard to just Auto-Pilot thru life. Many people feel entitled to a life where everyone is like Them.
It's Conformism. And they get Nasty when it's just Not Possible to conform.
Actually, this sounds like a Disability! An inability to Empathize with other humans and treat them as People, not Things.
Oh, wait, we know what that one's called.
@dartigen It'll get the message across that we're living thru the apocalypse RN.

@dartigen I mean you could switch it up, and make a statement by going full Wasteland Survivor and getting a Milsurp Gas Mask. I think there's a Tutorial on how to make your own ballistic armor out of Tires on Youtube...
@dartigen Real Talk though, I'd look around my place for anything that IS rated as an air filter, and breathe thru that.
Even if I had an unused automotive air filter, I'd cut that stuff up for a mask.
@dartigen Time to build a climate controlled HEV suit.
Guns, queer stuff, +++++
Did a queer range night tonight with about 7 other people. For a few it was their first time with a gun. We taught each other, bonded, and shared our love of guns.
We live in harsh times, and community defense is as important as ever. We can't let ourselves be victims because our garbage two-party system has propagandized us into thinking gun culture is only ever conservative. Make your community a hard target. Train yourselves, your friends, your polycule.
@maxine That's what I mean. They are to be allowed Everything, we are to be allowed only what They think We need.

Tiny motorcycles, magic potions, machine tools, progressive rock, trance states, and hand sharpened drill bits. Oh, and I read Tarot. Probably 18+ just to be sure.
