This is by design. Individualism is one of the main tenets brainwashed into us. It would be harder to push a ruling wealthy class if our society was a collective that prioritized the benefit of all above the benefit of self.
hated landlords until I became one - tenants are just ungrateful Rhiannon Picton-James
I hated serial killers until I got that first rush of my hands squeezing tighter and tighter around a helpless delicate neck
I really want a senator, rather than explaining the math, to just say "We all know what's going on here, Mr. Secretary. Trump said a moronic thing and now everyone in the administration, including you, has to pretend it's real. You know it isn't real. But you can't say that because you're a coward."
US media is just fully north korean style completely demonic bullshit. Completely lost.
hasan makes an obvious joke and has generally good politics and the media is like we need to drown him to prove he's not a witch. meanwhile tucker carlson goes live and talks about how demons are real and one tried to eat him in his sleep once and the media is like he seems trustworthy
As the saying goes "democracy advances one funeral at a time"
gerontocrats truly live for this shit

Conservatives have been trained for decades to think of Constitutions not as agreed-upon rules for fair governance, but as a series of cheat codes and loopholes that let them hold power even when the voters want to throw them out. They won't accept anything less than permanent domination of us.
Exactly! The decades of 2nd amendent blabla... the pedoking country imagine they use their own rules for good.
Listen, they are building concentration camps and threatening genocide against a country of 90 million people. There is not a single remotely legal tactic that is impermissible when it comes to stopping them.
REDISTRICT EVERYTHING
ESCALATE TO DE-ESCALATE
GERRYMANDER EVERY SINGLE STATE IMMEDIATELY

it's ok to be a nerd, just don't be a fascist- those aren't the same thing 🤣
can you imagine.
lmao nerd
My most strongly held belief is really that we should fire the most evil of people into the sun and live stream it. CAN YOU IMAGINE. IMAGINE a world, WITH CONSEQUENCES. So FUCKING HARDCORE. It's barbaric YES but it is the RIGHT KIND OF BARBARIC.
mmhmmm nard
We should rename "Dark Matter" to "Flark Splatter" because then it's much harder for galactic fascists to pretend it's the cool juice they sip when they vie for galactic domination.
not everything is yankeyland, nerds are fine. We can still define things fine outside the borders of the fascist empire. You don't get to define everything. lmao. keep the shit inside the bowl as we say. it doesn't need to be on the walls ya know.
This is the most confronting part of being left. You need to ditch the saviour complex. You aren't saving anyone, you're creating a better possibility of a future- but you aren't magic finger snapping away people who are traumatised by the sickness of the system.. and those are still, truly, people.
So, instead, we get endless made-up bullshit stories about poor little Okies in Michigan or Kentucky upset about the factory jobs going away under Nixon and Hillary Clinton doing Tumblrspeak so we don’t have to acknowledge that “para continuar en Español, oprima 2” made them crash out genocidally
Acknowledging the stark, ugly truth that the Republicans basically had no good reason to do what they have done for the last 11 years and have lapsed into vast collective psychosis over totally immaterial and utterly depraved delusions is terrifying, and as such most commentators simply do not do it
hell yes, aced the answer 🍄
Because we need leftist educators to counter the incredibly well funded right wing propaganda sphere, and doing it by making things for free and being supported voluntarily by a small percentage of viewers is about as ethical a way to make income as is possible under capitalism
(aside from the important joke, this is a known problem, it's not innumeracy, people generally are just really crap at big numbers)

We should take advantage of this and make a whole world based on numbers of all different sizes for different things and I suggest we just call it like 'economy' or 'money' because whatever that means nobody will understand.
Just include everyone in the 1%, indiscriminately. Fuck it. Get rid of all of them in one go. Use civil asset forfeiture- give everyone healthcare, give everyone who is homeless a house and get them off the street, feed everyone who's poor, release everyone in jail for drug felonies, and a jubilee.
