  • This is probably a weird thread to drop this but it's relevant as any.

    "nothing ever happens" is a silly argument. Things absolutely happen, all of the time. Is the cutting off of water and food from Gaza nothing? Are people forcibly drafted into fighting in the Ukraine proxy war nothing? Are the disabled friends and family dying from the deeply misanthropic Covid policies in the west nothing?

    Things happen a LOT. They just haven't happened to you ("you" in this case being whatever person genuinely thinks nothing ever happens) yet so you think they can't happen to you. They will and it will probably suck ass.







  • the "liberal" in me is angry that democrats have been campaigning as the lesser evil for 12 fucking years and won't do the bare fucking minimum to stop the minorities they hold hostage from being killed and enslaved

    the communist in me is angry that anyone on this website would even consider this a good thing, because the amendment is currently the only time-reasonable way to try and prevent there from being neurodivergent labor camps and mass deportations

    both sides of me are the communist, actually. we need to start banning this weird Hitlerite minimization shit. Elon "Most Divorced Trans Hater" Musk, RFK "Brain Worm" JR, and JD "I Love Murder Actually" Vance are going to be in office in a position of power and they don't even have the ghoulish apathy of your average war criminal dem to stop them from killing as many people as they can. They want to kill more people than are being killed now. They WANT the working class to suffer, not because they love to exploit it as is usually the case (though they likely do as well), but because they genuinely believe the majority of the working class is subhuman and should be eradicated. These aren't the usual kind of hollow ghoul we've seen. They have principles and their principles are absolutely monsterous.

    To be clear, I do think the Dems are probably similar at this point, if not since the beginning. I think they just hide it. There's no other reason I can think of for why Biden why refuse to do such a simple thing that would vastly increase the approval of him and his party.

    I know this is overanalyzing a joke but if were to take this metaphor literally class conscious is an emotion separate from any other emotion, meaning that it can be coupled with any other emotion in it's expression or be expressed by itself. So that means you can have joyful class consciousness or angry class consciousness and I think that's beautiful



  • So, this is it, right? Unless some sort of genuine miracle happens, we now have a head of the FDA who thinks vaccines shouldn't be used at all and will likely attempt to curb their use and possibly even ban them, and we have a new confirmed infectious and dangerous virus spreading in our population. How does this end in anything except an outright coup of the government to reinstate actual health policies, or the death of the majority of the country?

    Didn't the Black Plague kill enough people to change how names worked? How would this unchecked plague be any different?

    How would the US war machine function if based in a country with a population of 110 people?
