In relation to this, thinking about a new community for Political Activism. Calls to action, that kind of thing.

The rules would be super simple:

  1. Purpose is for protest organizing. [Country, City, State]

  2. Absolutely no calls for violent action.

  3. No links to fundraisers. Too rife for fraud and abuse. Stories about fundraisers would be fine, but no GoFundMes, etc.

Think there’s room for PolticalActivism?

    NO. I reject your sanewashing bullshit, because it is both falsehood and in service to evil.

    I watched the videos. From every damn angle before and after Johnathan Ross killed Renee. He knew what he was doing, and had absolutely no remorse for what he did. He killed someone, and fled the scene of the crime.

    You have no integrity, “Liberty Forever”. The only liberty you possess is the kind that is completely void of morality, that wants to be free of consequence and justice. No different from Trump, Noem, Kash, and so many other horrible people that are leading my nation into destruction and suffering. You are a monster just like them, the only difference being that you lack their authority to hurt people.

    Your words must be called out for what they are: deceitful and malicious.

      You’re stating certainty about intent, motive, and state of mind that you cannot actually prove from video footage alone. That’s not “calling out evil,” it’s replacing legal standards with moral conviction. Watching videos — even from multiple angles — does not establish premeditation, lack of remorse, or criminal intent. Those are precisely the things that investigations, testimony, and courts exist to determine. Declaring them settled because you feel certain isn’t justice; it’s a shortcut around it. You’re free to believe the actions were reckless, wrong, or deserving of discipline or reform. But branding disagreement as “malicious” or “evil” doesn’t strengthen your case — it just signals that you’ve moved from argument to accusation. If this discussion requires demonization instead of evidence, then there’s nothing productive left to say.
