Is that Etna from Disgaea?

If they didn't want to go to prison, they shouldn't have stolen the candy bar. FAFO! Also I hate authoritarians. FREEDOM!

Exactly American citizens. Sadly, too many of us are accustomed to "someone else" doing the hard work.

Who are these "People?"

Okay, sure. Good vs Evil. I get it. And "We can only demonstrate our moral superiority by force."

That's old style thinking. Those ways never last because they rely on creating a new power structure that will eventually become corrupt.

Now is the time to learn. It's what the upper classes fear most. We control nations with our voice, not violence. We just have to wake the fuck up and realize it.

Hey, be fair! We're not on fire at the moment.

I don't disagree with you, but you're distilling a very complex landscape into a binary. Essentially "Good" and "Bad."

Yes, both main parties in the US are bad, but that kind of thinking gets fascists elected. They are -not- the same because the reality of the situation is not binary.

Lets change 白 and 黒 to Good and Bad, and re-read your argument:

Naturally. Good and Bad parties cannot coexist since their ideologies directly oppose the other. If Good is to win, Bad must go. If you knew first-hand how stable Good parties are over Bad parties like the Democrats and Republicans, you would agree that Good is the better long term option.

It's a logically sound point, I just don't see what you're trying to say with it. We don't have any 白 parties to choose from, but one of the two 黒 parties is at least keeping a facade of decency. That's exploitable until we can get a 白 party elected.

The problem in the US is that most of us can't be inconvenienced enough to actually educate ourselves, while we blame the government for not educating our children.

And it's a going out of business fire sale.

That's fine, but "Not 白" is objectively not "Equal" and having a world view that ignores this is incredibly ignorant. It's absolutely within your rights to have it, though.

So through a very narrow lens?

I agree with your point, but not a fan of the inflammatory delivery.
