"You have strong opinions."
My response: "Thank you! People with weak opinions aren't worth much energy. Thanks for using your energy for delivering a backhanded compliment. You gave me energy because I'm stronger than you'll ever be. Stay jealous."
Walk away & don't even give them a look back. Let people who think giving backhanded compliments is a good idea - suffer their own public consequences, when they run into people like me who bark back better & louder.
There's good reasons why I paint my own jacket/shirt backs when going to government courts/offices. They can read my messages, when I walk away/led away in handcuffs for trying to confront corrupted politicians in public spaces.
I will keep on discomforting the comfortable & privileged muthafuckers - locally first & beyond, second.
I feel BC folks need to get ready to start occupying government offices in January. Some of us are going to engage in earlier actions.
We don't ever fucking wait for any politicians to do better anymore. We don't wait for apathetic citizens to help either.
Stay the fuck outta the way.
I am a proud cops hating, government mistrusting, strongly opinionated, Asian witchy bitch.
I don't identify with any white revolutionary people. I identify with my own big Auntie, a longtime anti-colonial resistance fighter. I'd literally slit throats of politicians & their fucking cops without blinking. They are all fucking murderers/murder enablers of countless POC & queers too.
@PhoenixSerenity Well I mean like I would have more fun with it, skin them without them dying and dump a bucket of vinegar on them before letting them freeze to death in the woods, but you do you
@sackofbones Please refrain from saying shit like - You do you, to me ever again.
@sackofbones I prefer going into enemy fields undetected before taking more action. This is due to 3 decades of lived experiences fighting BC/federal governments on the grounds & going face to face with their corporate mercenaries violently more than 20 times & being hospitalized 3 times for being violently assaulted by government mercenaries while trying to protect people more vulnerable.
I am an angry byproduct war survivor of USA insanity & addictions to proxy wars/Global South exploitation & I won't shut up about any of that.

Your humanitarian task is to stop any glorification of wars & any honouring of mass murderers. Your personal job is to confront yourself on why you think human lives like my family are acceptable losses. When my family & millions of other Global South families were simply trying to live/survive. We wanted to elect our own government. USA wanted a puppet government that they could fully control. Power/capitalism is why Vietnam/Cambodia/Laos were relentlessly carpet bombed for over a decade.
The USA killed over half of my family. I will never forgive that.

You hate #immigrants & #refugees ?
Make your shitty governments in #GlobalNorth stop bombing & killing people all across Global South, causing more displacements!
Your "heroes" are mass murderers.
I don't care if you feel offended by a war survivor family telling you all that your so called war heroes are mass murderers. They are mass murderers. They killed over half of my family. Fuck the people who celebrate mass murders.
Your "heroes" murdered my family.

Don't ever volunteer in any government military!
Your colonial #RemembranceDay public celebrations only remind/leave us living war survivor victims feeling more anger & hatred towards unrepentant military people/enablers. The only veterans we respect are those completely committed to working towards peace & military disarmament! Everything else is smoke & mirrors.
We don't share your military pride whatsoever. Unless your military pride involved putting your own job at risk for fighting against your own shitty government decisions - fuck right off trying to tell me why military should be respected. I don't respect any mass murderers or any of their enablers. Straight up.
@PhoenixSerenity They're not all mass murderers. Some of them just cooked meals or fixed trucks.
@12thRITS @PhoenixSerenity The tip of the spear does nothing without the rest of the shaft behind it. Jobwise, were all a piece of the whole that couldn't be replaced even though we could be as individuals.
I never pulled a trigger in anger but there are at least a few hundred dead people who just wanted to run their own country that I helped kill.
@TeflonTrout @PhoenixSerenity Everyone who paid taxes was complicit as well.
I'm surrounded by a lot of MapleMAGA dipshits. Several identify themselves with Canadian flags on their houses & trucks. I'm going to tear them down.
@PhoenixSerenity the Canadian flags get my hackles up. could be the freedom convoy, who knows? a bunch of businesses put them up for "buy Canadian" or whatever and it makes me itchy
@forestine I got kicked out of & banned from a store in Nanaimo because I went fully off on their MapleMAGA BS capitalism. I have no regrets.
@forestine Same. I only tolerate one neighbour for flying one because he's not a bigot muthafucker & only has one up because of promise to his dead immigrant Dad.
@PhoenixSerenity could you imagine their fucking faces if you'd replace them with Al Qassam flags 🤣
@GM7077 I love this idea 🤣
@PhoenixSerenity And we wouldn't want you to be any other way. ❤️❤️❤️
@TheLastOfHisName Good, because it took decades to cultivate myself 🤣❤️
@PhoenixSerenity I mean, in the context of every opinion I know you to have, I don't see why strong opinions would be a bad thing.
The whole thread goes into topics I fear probably ring hollow coming from me as an American. I don't know how much consolation it is that my family's religious upbringing means that I, my parents, and their parents from a relatively young age, were forbidden from any military service, even non-combatitive roles. I have to go as far back as a great uncle who fought in the second World War and during one of the earlier escapades of responding to ideology with bombs and chemical warfare. I suspect my family probably has more Korean and Japanese blood on its hands than Vietnamese for this reason. Not zero, because the injunction against military service came from the same place as an injunction against election or protest participation.
The people I truly loathe more than anything are the generals and politicians who either got to die in old age or are still using the abstraction of being behind a chair and killing with words rather than on the ground and with a gun to pretend they're innocent.
Meanwhile, I'm nervous if my Southern accent comes out around some of the Vietnamese people I know locally because I know, if not for them, then someone they're related to associates English spoken in that accent with incomprehensible death and destruction. It doesn't help they're far from the only group I worry about that with.
I'd probably take solace in the fact the Vietnam vets on the US side also got cancer en masse even if they somehow avoided PTSD if I were in your position too. I don't think they should be left to rot, but if I had the power to enact that change, I'd also reassign every remaining able bodied troop to building infrastructure as the locals see fit and every red cent of the budget after that would be for the veteran's medical bills and and army to defend against a combatant within their own damned borders for however long it takes for militaries to no longer be necessary anywhere on Earth.
