These discussions never lead to anything productive.

I firmly-believe most people who engage in them are autistic.

Americans haven't given up their consumerism, so a general strike is out of the question.

They need money for subscribing to digital entertainment they can be getting for free and to order food with delivery apps at 100% markup.

This generation sucks.

Slowly. Luigi was a good start.

If Americans want to revolt, they'll have to do it in the shadows.

Any common man can kill a rich person. No organized resistance is required, and any organized resistance is going to be infiltrated by the FBI and shut down before anything significant happens.

It would be neat if the heroes that kill our oppressors end up getting social media famous as they do it.

and will have ideas that I disagree with.

I honestly think this is code for, "I like what they do, but I hope they don't raise my taxes."

Also, "There's no way they can have solutions that are better than mine!"

Do you think AOC would have a better chance at winning than... kamala harris?

but I would like to see her take another 5-10 years to learn how to broaden her appeal.

This kind of "we're not ready yet" mindset is what lets republicans eat our lunch again and again.

"Broadening appeal" is also dumb as fuck when the candidates that do run routinely get ~30% of the vote. They already don't have "broad appeal."

Stop playing into the ruling classes handbooks by giving up before we even begin.

Bernie should have won.

Fuck everyone who voted for hillary clinton in the 2016 primary.

They need to be tarred and feathered.

I totally agree with what you're saying.

If we keep rewarding people with social praise every time they contribute to the problem, they're going to keep contributing to the problem.

This is what I mean by changing as a culture. We need to value different things.

Dick Durbin.

Apparently he swindled some Illinois voters into voting against their own interests.

They need to get the memo so they can prevent it from happening again.

Damn, it's sad people can be so clueless yet still have a voice.

Gotta stop voting for him!
