Eh sure. A healthy democracy requires informed voters, and America is kinda the king of… not that.

while the conservatives are basically fighting for shooting the patient in the head to end their misery.

More like after they are actively cutting open the patient to steal and sell their organs while still alive

But yeah we agree on the rest. Most of the political class in general are just trying to hoard as much wealth and power as possible. However there are a handful of Democrats that are actually fighting for complete system overhaul, and that’s more than you can say about Republicans at least.

Most of them at the beginning of any operation are Russian/Iranian bots (both real people and LLMs) whose entire job it is to rile people up and get the MAGA-types to latch on and grow the sentiment organically. But again, who cares what they say? Just ignore or silence them as quickly and cleanly as possible.

Why are they all such fucking creeps? It’s always some trans porn + domestic violence + cuck stuff with these dweebs. Musk, Miller is a cuck 100%, Trump is, Yarvin, Geressy, fuck em all.

edit: trans and cuck stuff is fine if consensual and not hurting others. These people enjoy hurting others though.

You mean the propaganda machine owned by the richest person on earth, the guy who proudly seig heils in public and uses dog whistles in every sentence he says?

In general, corporatists on both sides are disgusting. However, Democrats as a whole have been fighting for this for a long time, so it’s like 85% Republicans’ fault (who enjoy starving children to get others to bow down to them), and maybe 15% Democrats.

and who’s that?

who cares what online racist dweebs think or say about anything?

thank you for this, I forgot about it until now

that’s a crazy thing to say here… maybe seek some legal means to go after his son first, like lawsuits, etc.?

A huge amount of internalized anger is because they have homosexual urges that they hate about themselves. Then they become fearful and angry about everything and get sucked into the right wing rabbithole even more. The grindr app crashed when the RNC had its annual meetings.

To be honest that line is probably when ICE/brownshirts/whoever start mass killing people during protests. Historically, that’s what it has taken for the citizens to begin to actually fight back against authoritarian regimes. However, every individual can do whatever they want, whenever they want. Also the line is when issues with food/water/security are directly affecting enough “common” people.

MAGA is hoping to avoid that obviously, so they’ll go right to that line (captained by Miller, Vought, Lutnick, Vance/Thiel) but not go past it.

oh yeah that’s definitely it, I’m not a bird expert

Looks like a Great Horned owl, Great Job!

doesn’t matter, literally nothing matters as long as Fox, Newsmax, OANN, etc. exist, because the cult will still live in a different reality

The way out is mass cult de-programming programs first, then arrest/remove/??? the propaganda sources like Fox, Newsmax, OANN, in the first place. Then “provide justice” (edit: there are plenty of legal ways to do this) to the few dozen billionaires causing most of this. Then from there the rest will begin to heal itself, but first you have to cut out the tumor/infection.

Have a bunch of family staying over at my house for Thanksgiving, and literally doing this now. Though instead of smoking outside, I’m “working in my office” (I’m actually working somewhat)

I can see you’re not absorbing what I’m saying, so… ok

In a vacuum you can say whatever you want, but in today’s media environment with bad actors and bots all over, posting anonymously online to repeat Big Oil talking points requires additional context. Nothing you’re saying is factually incorrect, but it just so happens to align with propaganda strategies.

That’s what makes it so effective as propaganda, they can hide behind “it’s not incorrect, it’s just facts” but the implication (and they’ve openly parroted it all over) is that everything is the fault of India and China and therefore we shouldn’t be trying to decarbonize and move away from fossil fuels.

That’s why there are so many pushes to get RCV on the books. Also why many Republican-controlled states are preemptively banning it, because they know they’d never get power again if it was a truly open and fair primary/general. Some establishment Democrats are trying to ban it too because they also benefit by the duopoly.
