@ProtonInspector I know this probably isn’t the case and they just closed stuff for filming, but I love how all footage of Dubai I’ve ever seen looks like a major US city in scale and there are a total of 2 people walking around at any given time

@ClimateDefiance @Jennyjinx You guys, THAT WAS HER GOAL! She was in the race to be a spoiler, that’s what controlled opposition parties do is CONTROL THE REAL OPPOSITION

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@TheMovieMermaid I LIKE MY OPICS BI OKAY?

@JohnSpr133326 @thematrixb0t @iluminatibot Found the Nazi

@pray_for_mojo_ @sampladelica Oh lemme solve that mystery for you right now; they’re all gay and closeted. That’s why Grindr crashes wherever the RNC happens

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@sampladelica That’s actually devastating and I’m gonna use this lmao

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@tomtomaru @suchnerve This would actually be great for me ngl

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@InCronopios @kk_ashes Wow! That’s true in the United States as well!

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@herosnvrdie69 One main problem in America is they’re right, seems that the VAST majority will not check

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@burkehenryt I have a different idea about what to do with the oligarchs, and it’s great for the 99.999999% of people who aren’t an oligarch

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Micky_Tyne @DannyManus You as well, nice to have a good conversation on here for once! :)

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Proud4USA1 @Laurie0801 @LLPDunn “But Trump!” cry the doofuses who have no arguments of their own

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Micky_Tyne @DannyManus So my conclusion is that you should vote as long as you understand the limits of voting and that’s not the only thing you ever do. It can be a strategic decision understanding that the choice is to either vote suboptimal not or just completely give up your turn.

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Micky_Tyne @DannyManus I agree with all of that, for the main reason that I think electoral politics is pretty worthless overall. But not entirely worthless, you can meaningfully see SOME changes if you elect better people while also recognizing those electeds alone will never get you all the way.

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Proud4USA1 @Laurie0801 @LLPDunn No, pretty much all of it is written by the rich for themselves, Becerra is just one corporate whore who’s happy to have himself puppeted by whoever pays him best, but it’s hardly a unique problem. Most of the Dem party is this way.

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Micky_Tyne @DannyManus Ultimately, material interests will win out in the end, it’s not possible to glibly comment about team sports from your armchair when your house has no food or electricity. It seems that this isolation from consequence is gonna escalate until people DO feel it

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Micky_Tyne @DannyManus I agree, the blind tribalism is the thing getting us killed, and it can last decades as you point out. But it seems that’s one symptom of a larger disease, in this case it’s that people are financially well off enough still to not feel personal consequences from their votes

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Proud4USA1 @Laurie0801 @LLPDunn Basically the entire tax code top to bottom, as one example, there are many

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@luckygsf I just think you need to pay $10k a month in health insurance premiums to understand, you need your water and electricity to cost your entire monthly paycheck and you will receive this gift soon

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@CwMcculloughjr @luxeprogressive I’m not sure how to kindly tell you than you deserve to have your taxes multiplied 10x while billionaires start privately owning large parts of LA and the roads fall into disrepair

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Laurie0801 Ok nvm you just seem to be equally uninformed based on your other answers. I get it now

[Benji @ColoBenji]

@Laurie0801 What the fuck?? What exactly did you learn in your research to make you think the 5-corporations-in-a-trenchcoat guy is better than the class traitor?
