Discography
gollark: I agree that that can sometimes be a problem, but it also means people can actually suggest improvements or dislike things without fearing for their lives.
gollark: People might disagree with how you run things and that's really not a good reason to imprison/whatever them.
gollark: Or just anyone who happens to be *related* to dissidents, to some extent anyone made worse off by some poor decision made somewhere, someone who is *taken* to be a dissident even if they aren't somehow, people who are living in fear of being considered one, etc.Also, I do care about said dissidents, soooo...
gollark: The world is very interconnected these days so stuff happening elsewhere affects me somewhat. And I do also care about suffering being caused, even if that doesn't directly affect people in my country.
gollark: I can definitely judge them by their *actions* and whatnot.
