christ republicans fucking suck
I don't think I necessarily agree. I think there are plenty of libs who are within reach, a lot of their hearts are in the right places they just need things explained to them in the right way (A LOT) unlike the 40% who are straight fash. While 40% of eligible voters dont vote I think most of them still tend to fall either fash or lib territory, though the ones you're talking about are some of my favorite people to talk to. However they are a small minority I think, and I don't think it's a great idea to write the libs off altogether when they take up such a huge percentage of our population and are somewhat convinceable. Really depends what type of libs you're talking about though, but I do think young people are the best vessel for organizing into the future.
I think I mostly got through to her by comparing it to packing the courts and saying how much damage that would do to abortion access and gay rights.
when you tell the libs in 4 years that biden sucks they will just say well what was he supposed to do? there was a republican senate, its mitch mcconnell's fault.
pretty sure shes literally a west wing fan
Im arguing on fb with a friend of mine who is what I guess I would describe as a fairly reasonable Bernie supporter about why Joe Biden should not have Republicans in his cabinet. Liberalism makes me pull my fucking hair out.
NYC's is DSA Emerge or something I think
I've been posting a shit ton of facebook recently and I'm thinking of making a big effortpost across my social media accounts to get people to recognize why this moment is the right moment to join DSA. They are doing a big recruitment drive to get to 100k members nationwide.
it had to do with inappropriate comments towards women at work, right?
I think you actually hit on the head why its been bothering me so much. I hate the VOTE! thing because it doesn't even bother to take a side. They don't care that their statement is ambiguous enough to be telling fascists to do their thing. It puts so much inherent trust in the institution of voting that it even goes past the condescending "Vote blue no matter who!" and basically assumes even Republicans voting is good. Everything is good. Everything is normal. Voting will make things normal again.
rats are surprisingly intelligent for animals we generally consider to be so low and dirty
becoming a leftist honestly has made me feel more alienated in a way. every day I just get angry thinking about neoliberalism and how even among my more politically aware friends, many of them just have something about them that makes them libs that really bothers me. I don't really have any irl leftist friends, maybe need to get to organizing opportunities or mutual aid more
saw someone refer to not following trump on twitter as "boycotting" him. libs literally think tweeting is labor and not following the cheeto is the same as withholding labor
"build back better" literally meaningless trash word salad.
holy fucking shit I was kinda hoping it would be her for comedy's sake so I was disappointed to hear it probably wasn't going to be her, now my hope is restored.
It's all just China Bad. Anyone complaining about tiktok by posting on reddit is a completely braindead reactionary.
wow can't believe you were hanging out with a bunch of rich people that must've been awesome, did you get to ride in their lamborghinis?
