Someone: "You place all of the blame upon the national level party for things that are done on the local level."
Me: makes note of my local politics, then provides a huge list of things that need to or can happen at the national level, with bolding on the most important parts of each point
Them: "That was a lot of shit that I’m not gunna read lol. 2 tweets or less boss."
Why do I even bother?
i always find it funny when everyone is like 'vote dem, they support lgbt rights!' and then i go look at the dem candidates near me and they are all antivaxx gay bashers :yea:
That's when you know that all their talk about civility is just a smokescreen to talk down to people they don't like.
i would love to hear from someone what voting has actually accomplished recently.
The amazon and starbucks union efforts would not have played out with trump's DoL
general strike! general strike!
wait what do you mean, i cant just keep saying general strike and itll happen? what? i have to organize? i have to learn to defend large groups of people through force of arms because the state will immediately repress a strike of any magnitude? that the bolshevik revolution originally started as a strike that was immediately brutally destroyed and they were forced into their decision making? noo thats evil violence tankieism we'd never do that, general strike is peaceful and lovey dovey!
noooo im just gonna go back to playing dark elden mon
r/antiwork be like
I mean I like that people are slowly coming around to the idea. But as soon as Roe v Wade was over-turned, reddit was full of these lone "GENERAL STRIKE MONDAY!!!" posters and it's like wow, you organized an entire general strike with only 3 days notice? how many tens of millions of people are in on this? lol. fuck they're naive
Went to the thread to sneer at liberals, ended up just being disgusted by chuds
They're firing on all cylinders. Vote. Make sure you're registered to vote. Make sure to get your friends and family to vote. Sign some petitions. Call the cops and let them know when and where you want to protest. Call in for reservations at restaurant that charges $35 for a salad and congratulate your fellow libs for doing democracy.
