Yesterday my eldest son’s soccer team could not play one of their scheduled games because migrants refused to leave the field the league had permits for, even after the cops came and told them they needed to leave. Finally the ref said it was too late to start the game and left. Two teams of high school boys, in uniform, with their coaches present. and a valid permit, could not play a soccer match in NYC because our city has become lawless. Not the biggest issue or problem, but so ugly and so diminishing to the quality of life.
@MaudMaron "The LEAGUE had PERMITS!" Permits and leagues are the purview of high-trust societies with a respect for the rule of law and low time-preference guidelines for social intercourse. If you replace the population with those who don't prize these qualities, this is the result.
@alwaysadblock @MaudMaron Not a #racist comment but #racist adjacent.
@alwaysadblock @MaudMaron The cops literally didn't do their job.
@alwaysadblock @MaudMaron "They're just like us because they value family and hard work" they say. It pains to say that New Yorkers need to learn these lessons the hard way.
@alwaysadblock @MaudMaron Other hallmarks of a high-trust society: -paying for things you take from a store -the justice system arresting and punishing criminals, freeing you of the need to do it yourself -public officials serving the public interest, more than their own
@alwaysadblock @MaudMaron Bingo! And this is by design no less. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ugrliu…
@alwaysadblock @ArisakaAya @MaudMaron Lmao imagine applying for a permit for anything. If you need a permit, you shouldn't be doing it. Parade permit for your white nationalist group? Buddy, the permitting process is the city's way of politely telling you it's a bad idea.
@alwaysadblock @MaudMaron While part of the problem is replacing the population with those, the bigger issue is installing people into authority that don't enforce these ideas.
