You've learned nothing since the election. Fuck your grocery bill, you deserve it for being okay with the other non viable genocidal candidate.
It's those principled citizens who don't deserve it, and they're the ones that will be on the front lines when it comes down to it, you'll just continue barking at them and when you experience the effects of civil war for the first time, you'll respond the same way: you'll blame those who actually resisted and fought back for starting a war, instead of voting for Newsom or whoever the fuck Democrat you think will save this collapsing empire.
Read some books. Start with
Manufacturing Consentand theOrientalism, but you'll need some capacity for empathy towards people outside your country first.Don’t worry guys, things under Kamala would be just as bad! Someone on the internet told me so!
No, you’re letting “perfect” get in the way of “not letting shit continue to backslide.” You sound like a college sophomore who just got their hands on Chomsky for the first time and thinks they’ve figured out how to fix the world for real this time, we just need people to stop being shitty towards one another in order for my new socioeconomic system to work, come on guys stop laughing I know it hasn’t worked in the past but that’s because they didn’t do it right.
We have a sinking ship. One side is eagerly and vigorously drilling more holes in the hull. The other side is trying to bale water and patch holes with the minimal tools that they have access to. And then there’s you, screeching that since the balers didn’t keep your pant hems from getting soggy, we need to hand more drills to the drillers.
There’s an old joke: Jill Stein is trapped in a room. She has a gun with three bullets loaded. Beside her stands a democrat, a fascist, an anarchist, and Karl Marx. What does she do? She hands the gun to the fascist.
Nice baseless and completely inaccurate strawman you made there.
That's Kamala? That's promising the most lethal military to a crowd demanding the end of genocide? That's not letting shit continue to backslide?
I didn't vote for Jill Stein. The lack of another viable candidate isn't reason to vote the way you did. Dice it however you want, you didn't vote for imperfect, you voted explicitly in support of genocide.
What you should have done, what the country still fails to recognize, is demand a viable candidate, or (at this point both parties are so complicity there is no other option) revolt. But that's too uncomfortable, and it's still only brown people getting slaughtered and rounded up for death camps domestically, so you'll sit on your ass watching TV until you're tired every night instead of revolting.
When they finally come for you, they'll be no one left to fight with you, and you'll have complete deserved it, you spent your time blaming people who tried to fight back. Go ahead, become a Newsom cheerleader for a few more years, that'll save the country.
Brain rot.
Exactly right. Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris are directly responsible for Donald Fucking Trump.
