@Zebop I was a well-intentioned but stupid Jill Stein voting Berniecrat in 2016. I regret not voting for Hillary more and more every single day. I'll never make that mistake again, but I don't think I've seen a single one of my "comrades" willing to come out and admit they were wrong 2
It is possible to believe two things at once: That the long-suffering people of Iran deserve freedom from their despotic leaders, and that a bombing campaign by the current highly corrupt authoritarian government of America is unlikely to bring it.
“Oh it’s all so hopeless they’re gonna get away with it. The Epstein pedos are going to rule the world forever.”
Shut the fuck up.
It’s like sharing a foxhole with somebody screaming about how “we’re all gonna die.” You are a liability and you are spreading demoralization propaganda.
This feigned world weary cynicism is usually just a mask for comfortable westerners who want to maintain their lifestyle. They want to keep going to the movies and partying on the weekends but they need to assuage the guilt of knowing they are complicit in allowing the continuation of the system. So of course they pretend there is no chance of changing anything.
The truth is if the Epstein clique gets away with it, it’s our fault. Period. We are not helpless spectators. There are far more of us than there are of them. If they get away with it, that means we decided to let them get away with it.
One night in 1957 the NYPD beat the shit out of a man and hauled him into a Harlem police station. He had life threatening injuries. Family and friends begged the cops to let him go to the hospital and were ignored. Malcolm X showed up and surrounded the station with a mob of 4000 people. The man was released to hospital, the mob dispersed and the man lived instead of died that night. That’s how this works.
We have the numbers. We know where these people live. We know what infrastructure and what industries are critical to the functioning of this society. It is simply a question of how much do we actually want to change this. That’s it.
"It's the Dems fault that SNAP benefits are being halted, and you should be really, really mad at them and only them. But also, you fat idiots don't deserve SNAP, and here's all the reason we should end that program permanently."
I feel like we could end this quickly if we countered the $50,000 ICE sign-up bonus with the offer of experiencing consensual sex with a woman for the first time in their lives.
