No one is expecting you to lead any charge, they are just begging you to not sacrifice other people's rights for a tiny bit of peace.
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
Then why are you saying to ignore Newsoms stance about making that nightmare worse for people who aren't you? That's not stopping the nightmare that's just saving yourself from it.
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
It's hard and it's exhausting, but being silent about the erosion of rights for anyone, even when it isn't directly affecting you is what people who want power for their own purposes want you to be. Because if you don't do it for others then it's easier to convince others to not do it for you.
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
Go to those then. You have to make your voice heard so that no one can take your silence to mean compliance or assent. And that means not giving silent assent to Newsom when he throws the rights of any group under the bus because if he does it to them he will do it to you too to get what he wants.
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
You can also join or start a local, state, or federal support group or non-profit working to assist and canvas to get people to understand the importance of fighting for the rights of everyone, not just the ones you don't think of as disposable. You know, like you did for UBI.
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
But I'm guessing that instead you just are looking for a reason to sacrifice the wellbeing of others to support someone who you Think, Might, DO SOMETHING (what that something is is undefined, but supporting them makes you feel better instead of doing something yourself).
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
If you want legal options you can call and write in to your local state and federal representatives and berate them to support the rights of everyone like a real, normal human being would. It's not rocket science. Make them know that they need to support everyone if they want your support.
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
It is 100% the same. and the fact that your own generational prejudices are blinding you to that is on you. The way you stop the erosion of rights is that you fight for All of them, even then ones that don't effect you directly. Or have you not read the poem about this?
Boundary Conditions (@boundaryconditions.bsky.social) reply parent
It's for the same reason as UBI. Universal. Either we all have rights and respect inherent to us, or none of us actually do.

Yeah it's only part of the reason, not the whole reason. The gap is due to a big pile of things that are causing there to be radically different viewpoints between the two groups, not just one thing.

Granted a part of the current malaise of people is that they were still exposed to that story of Work Hard and Gain Rewards, and then society spit on them for daring to try and rise up on their efforts. Not all the time, but enough to be a consistent counter beat to the story they were raised with.

Compare that with modern media showing the main character instead of being The Person Who Worked Hard are The One Who Is Naturally Talented... Which is infuriating because it teaches kids that if something isnt effortless then there's no reason to try to get good enough to be respected at something.
