there’s just something so incredibly bleak, and again, suicidal about begging, hoping, waiting on, and pleading to the conscience of bourgeoise political figures to change our social, cultural, & political conditions and realities, as opposed to assuming that role ourselves. idk!
the voting/“expand the supreme court” thing is so mind-boggling b/c of its ineffectiveness but it’s also such politically futile, infantile, & downright suicidal tactic to alleviate ourselves of responsibility & grant a powerful minority the role of historical agents of progress.
this is unfortunately me getting serious on the tl, but in addition to our personal goals and intentions, this is also a really good time to consider how we want to build more community and solidarity that isn’t limited to platitudes and re-posts.
