Businesses whine that they'll raise prices if wages go up, and still raise prices while wages remain stagnant.

Correct on all points.

It's Bread *and* Roses! We're allowed nice things. The #Left isn't a monastic order dedicated to self flagellation and pecking orders.

This is your notification that you're allowed to post nice things in appreciation of them.

Yes, things are shit. We're also working on making it better.

I'd agree with you, but the Bumbleweed church down the street has a huge ass Progress Pride flag out front.

They take the 'All God's Children.' thing seriously.

It's not for *me*, but nice to see it.

An entire BSky account dedicated to Non-Binary Dad Jokes...

"I'm not gullible!" Says man who is exceedingly gullible.

Well, good news. I'm out here in Bumbleweed and talking to them they realize the left wants them fed, clothed, houses, and happy.

Only the stupidest are the loudest.

All they know of 'the left' is strawmen arguments about fat lesbians with purple hair.

Be polite and clear in your talking points.

Remove the current conservative Justices, expand the Court to 13, one for each Circuit.

Also in a lot of rural communities, the only accessable mass media is conservative-owned.

Farmers aren't by default bigots, but it's continuously reinforced by billionaires.

that rotting sack of shit bankrupted a *casino*!

How did anyone with half a brain in this country see that and go 'yup, he's th' guy for me!'...

It's important to keep an eye on what the cruel and powerful want to do to us, but slake yourself on a pic of my beloved #cat, Bigge Boi.

14 years old and still cock-of-the-walk.

It's loaded with an anvil, Looney Tunes style...

There is no Waifu candidate. You vote for the best one available.

Not voting is voting for 🍊.

I've seen a few people pop off about not voting because their Waifu candidate wasn't there.

MFers forget that voting is a long game.

I'd like to (respectfully) borrow this for dealing with shitheads, clownshoes, trolls and other assorted hobbyless, maidenless weirdos on this here internet.

It's crazy that my government can find $1,500,000,000,000 to fund an unpopular war used as a distraction from the sitting President's child rape accusations, but I need to hustle to find $40 to pay for medicine that makes me a productive member of society.

You all remember when Biden would make the faintest mistake and the news cycle wouldn't shut the fuck up about it for months on end?

The next time I want to see 🍊 on TV is at his #ICC trial in The Hague for crime against humanity.

If these journos wanted to make a *real* statement none of them would be there.

No guests,
No entertainment acts,
Nothing but that dumb orange fuck sitting in a quiet room with no cameras on him.

That's how you make a fuckin' statement. Don't give him the spotlight.

How to tell if a country is healthy.

Well, for one thing a major newspaper isn't owned by an oligarch and used for the sole purpose of pretending a child rapist is popular in the country.

JFC WaPo, you used to be a real newspaper. You'd skewer Dems nonstop for less.

The First Pillar of Islam *is* the Shahadah...

Inshallah.

An in-house chapel should be something that doesn't exist.

Something, something, separation of church and state, something.

Kicking out people who have a long and storied career of being political animals, as well as understanding how to get boots to the boots on the ground, who *also* take umbrage with the current, and incredibly stupid Occupier in the White House, is how you create the officer corps of a rebellion...

Fascism does not nor ever will make room for women, brown people, or poors.

They are all, at *best*, stupid but useful.

...until they're no longer useful.
