I guess to me as someone who doesn't often join in that discussion, ACAB does sound a bit like "no cops are good". I think most cops are trying to do good, but I'd love justice to find the corrupt or politically motivated ones... That being said I'm not American and haven't had the pleasure of meeting that particular group.
I agree with the overall sentiment that people of Lemmy can take these ideas a bit too far, calling for death of...well, everyone ๐
Are you okay with having all of your stuff stolen? Because no cops is how you have all your stuff stolen

I love some aspects of driving... I love my car and how nice it looks when it's clean and shiny. I love feeling the acceleration and driving through twisty roads. I love being outside and feeling the sun, while seeing all the varying sights across the city. I love the freedom of going anywhere, and effortlessly carrying passengers and cargo with me.
I don't like traffic or contributing to traffic. I HATE that we feel the need to pave over our shrinking green space for new highways. I hate the salt and pollution that comes with so many roads and cars.
If they're all on the same page, how do you feel about excluding any single component of this group from private property? Is it ok for businesses to exclude the unvaccinated? How about the others? If not, is that infringing on the business owner's right to self?
I think a lot of people would say it's ok to do that to some and not others, which means these groups can't be on the same page.
Good luck and good vibes to you โค๏ธ Hope your roommates continue to be decent
You and me both โค๏ธ
I live in the worst apartment so I don't have to cut back on anything. I save $500/mo living across from a halfway house which is enough to have wine and fancy cheese whenever the mood takes me
I was late for a hair appointment because I missed the bus, and I swear they wrote it down in my file because every time I went back, for the next year they were like "So... Did you come by bus today?"
Also yeah no problem if your train doesn't come once - but if it happens more than once it's going to reflect badly even though it's out of your control. You'll start to get the comments "You should take the earlier one!" I travelled by bus with 2 transfers to college and it was ROUGH.
Anything with "corruption" in it has too many syllables, so no I'm not that creative lol
