    maybe? But tangentially providing space for shitty people doesn’t make you a shitty person. Housing someone who is/was a murder doesn’t just make you a shitty person.

    Politics is quite literally a game of 4d chess unless played from the individuals perspective, in which case its a funny put name on paper and put it into a box game instead.

    I feel like the vast majority of self described liberals would have plenty of issues with violent and fascist-esque institutions running for government positions. I can’t think of any well known liberals that are ambivalent to trump, let alone supportive of him.

        Oh my god this is the ‘Trump is playing 4d chess’ meme but for liberals

        except for the fact that it’s true, global politics is quite literally a game of 4d chess, it is the most delicate and fragile game of jenga ever created, the distance we are from complete and total economic failure at any given moment is much smaller than you would think.

      “Politics is quite literally a game of 4d chess unless played from the individuals perspective, in which case its a funny put name on paper and put it into a box game instead.”

      Why can’t politics be more than voting from an individual’s perspective?

      Also, if you know the person you’re providing a house for is a serial killer and you do nothing… You are a shitty person.
