I’m saying there’s like 4 like minded people and we all already know each other. My mom’s retired so she has time to volunteer at the local food pantry. The vast majority of people who come in are chuds who gloat to the volunteers about all the great stuff trumps doing because they know my mom and the other women who volunteer are all liberals.

I’m saying your strategy of not being realistic about how much of an impedance the slack jawwed local contingent is gonna be is flawed.

They’re the one holding us back, as has been true for the entirety of this country, and saying it’s not their fault that they are like this is a fundamental failure in planning.

It sucks but we’ve got to accept “if we just help these people improve their lives they’ll come around” is literally not true. I live in upstate new york surrounded by people that would either freeze or starve to death in the winter if it weren’t for state run organizations. They also all have giant flags on their homes and vehicles making it very clear they want to get rid of those programs because they dont like all the lazy undeserving people taking advantage of the programs that keep them alive.

Kind of hard to build a community with the people with giant “fuck your feelings” flags on the side of their house.

That’s what I’m saying, maybe you can’t blame people for believing a lie but you can absolutely blame people for being literally antisocial and willfully ignorant.

I’m not going to waste my time and put my friends and family at risk by trying to build a community with people who would call them slurs. Especially because they are, fundamentally, antisocial assholes.

You try to build something with them and then as soon as that “thing” has any value they’ll attack you and try to take it from you. That’s their idea of a smart strong guy, being completely willing to fuck over and lie to other people. It’s why trumps president, and he’s still got north of 90% approval with people who voted for him, which makes up about 70% of my community.

As soon as you had more food then they deemed appropriate, which is going to be basically any amount, they’ll take that using the guns they’ve been hoarding in the hopes of having an excuse to shoot me. Kinda hard to focus on food and security with those people.

Frankly I’m getting pretty tired of the response to me getting upset at fascist to be “yea but you gotta understand they’ve enthusisatically brainwashed themselves because somebody told them it was a trans person’s fault their boss fired him and that seemed like a good point to them”

I explain all of that to those unfortunate manipulated victims of capitalism and they call me a slur and say I’m jealous.

You can absolutely blame the people at some point.

If I tell somebody “that guy’s an obvious con artist, don’t give him money he’s going to scam you. Here’s examples of him doing exactly that to the last 5 people. Heres my degree showing that i have specifically studied for years to be able to identify scams” And then that person calls me a cuck while handing his money to the scam artist, I’m going to blame the person I correctly and explicitly warned for not listening to me for the 500th time in a row.

And then the anger increases as every single one of the hundreds of people enthusiastically lining up to give the scam artist money has the same conversation with me.

And then a group of 50 of them get together and decide it’s my fault because they think I was being condescending as I explained exactly how they are fucking themselves over.

Gen z dudes are a bunch of Tate fan boys who think kanyes new song is hilarious.

The youngest generation is actively more conservative than the generation before for the first time since the boomers.

I gave up on America when Bush got a second term and overall that was the right call.

The fascists have been getting bolder and the “opposition” more feckless and confirmatory the entire time.

But we’re also not going to have like a sudden collapse th8ngs will just keep getting worse and worse and people quality of life will continue to decline and as it gets worse people will get more anti social, violent and willfully ignorant.

Rich people and right wingers will be able to murder you in the streets on your way to spend a weeks wages on a days worth of food.

Lol I just listened to an interview with Andy Beshear and he was taking the time to suck off Trump and say “if I’m gonna criticize him when he’s wrong I’ve gotta give him credit when he’s right, he’s been great with natural disaster relief”

Great going dummy I’m sure he’ll say you’re a great guy who’s easy to w0rk with and not just say you’re a communist who’s stealing the money.

Not to “Ermmm acshually” but you haven’t overcome the gravitational pull you’ve just counteracted it.

Overcoming it is significantlly more difficult.

The swirly line forms to the left.

That is objectively already more than dems did.

With dems we just got news articles about how behind closed doors Biden was super duper mad about the genocide then they’d send more bombs.

This whole th8ng becomes way funnier when you realize that Trump doesn’t understand derstand mercator projections and thinks there’s a second America right off our coast nobody’s using.

It’s terrifying how easy it is to manipulate a population that’s so biscously anti intellectual.

This is the dunning Kruger effect in real life. They’re too stupid to understand science so they assume science doesn’t make any sense.

I’m sure they would consider it a waste to “measure bubbles in antarctic sea ice” because they don’t understand that’s what climate models are based on and vindicated by. And even if they did understand it theyd still be against it.

It’s tough because obviously as communists you have to try to maintain a belief everybody is deserving of basic dignity and respect but then you see somebody yell “don’t you fucking tell me what to do” as they climb over the “do not enter, high voltage” sign of a substation.

It’s a lot harder to maintain the belief that any loss of life is a tragedy when you have a guy in a klan robe saying it’s their constitutional right to to wrap their lips around the exhaust pipe of a diesel truck specifically modified to cause as many emissions as humanly possible.

Because if you aren’t the bad guys then they’re just essentially the low level stooges of the evil mastermind just doing mundane evil shit for no discernable reason.

Where as if you’re the bad guy they’re virtuous principled people just doing what’s right (allowing them to have complete dominion over the moral high ground)

It was probablly just a list of 20 humanities electives they had to pick 4 of for gen Ed requirements (not say9ng this is a bad thing maybe if there was more of this 1/4 of every engineering class wouldn’t go straight to Lockheed martin)

They’re supposed to be less rigorous and a little more general than other courses, this is really grasping at straws for a reason to ignore the point being made.

People thinking their clever by making up words that already have a meaning.

“Lawfare” meaning chargingnrich white assholes for the crime they committed

“Disinformatsiya” or however libs spelled it to mean pointing out the hypocrisy of American nationalists.

“Sanewashing” to describe media putting their thumb on the scale for the fascist who wants to cut their taxes.

It implies it’s a new phenomenon and not just the current version of whatever propoganda apparatus has been chugging along for decades.

Liberals complain about “sanewashsing” and then in the same breath talk about how cheyney and bush weren’t exactly the fucking same as Trump.

Idk if it’s medical or more psychological but the term for when your hear a word so many times it loses meaning is one of my favorite phrases in the English language.

Semantic satiation

Unflinching American support for Israel hasn’t gone over well with neighboring countries, so the U.S. should try acting somewhat hesitant before handing the Israeli government billions of dollars.

This is literally the dems current plan lmao gotta be about that time of the week for another article about Biden calling netenyaho “a real sunovabitch” or whatever

Actually I feel like there’s been less of those articles, is Biden doing literally anything day to day at this point? They sure as shit aren’t gonna let him campaign.

“It’s not racist because it’s true, they really should be exterminated.”

I like the one where he said if you “criticize” a straight person only the straight person get mad at you but if you “criticize” a gay person everybody gets mad at you.

I warmly invite the guy to go anywhere other than here on the internet and criticize somebody FOR being straight, like I guarantee he does to gay people, and watch people get incredibly not mad that you’re criticizing straight people for being straight.

Just so everybody knows what kind of fucking liberal is this brain dead this guy regularly complains that lgbtq and trans people are bad because if you say bad things about them people get mad at you.

“My bookie said giving him this months grocery budget was a great idea.”

Future member of the “kids today are too sensitive mine won’t even talk to me” party

If I ever drive around with a bumper sticker saying my daughter is sucking her teachers dick will one of you please put a fucking bullet in the back of my head.
