If you want to be safe from attackers get a gun. It doesn’t give you concussions and it’s far more effective than kickboxing at protecting you.
I should take a step back. Generally speaking, do what you can to avoid fights. Don’t duel with other men. Use other methods to establish status.
Outside of dueling, there is being jumped. ie fights you don’t consent to. For those, just carry some pepper spray, or a stun gun, or an actual gun. Don’t rely on martial arts to protect you from people who fight you without your consent. This is why the army carries guns: they’re the most effective way to get the upper hand when someone else is trying to hurt you.
Definitely do your kickboxing classes for the cardio. If you want to excel in college and in your career you’re going to need to work out.
Just don’t confuse yourself about it being a good strategy for staying safe.
I just noticed that there are quite a few users on Reddit from r/WorldNews who are defending Israel unequivocally and when I checked some of the users they seemed to be engaging on topics only about Israel/Palestine and they seem to be extremely active, so I have checked the Internet and there are even some older BBC article and...
That’s what happened to me when I got attacked while homeless. The guy had me on my back in the street and was just continuing to kick my neck and head. He wasn’t stopping.
I’d never seen this guy in my life.
It only stopped because some other strangers happened to see and pulled him off me.
I’ve been close to dying before but it didn’t invalidate my whole worldview. But this guy’s rage, the willingness to kill a random stranger just for the hell of it, changed me deeply.

Are there r/WorldNews Israel bots or am I hallucinating
