It’s your lucky day - I happen to run a post-rapture plant watering and pet sitting business - I’m sure as shit not getting raptured.

Everybody is just walking straight past the fact that capitalism has cucked us all badly enough that we’re discussing the merits of drinking livestock products to save a few bucks?

Hold up - you don’t have a solution, but you’ll criticise people for doing what they can to keep the fascists out of power?

I agree with what you’re saying broadly, but if you’re going to wax ideological while you let the fascists win, you can fuck all the way off.

Importantly, they split the vote though.

The real tip is to ignore the daily mail.

Charging wealthier people higher prices and subsiding the less wealthy sounds great! I figure that with the profit motive, it’s all gone to shit though.

The inequality is worse than it has been in over a century, people are living closer to the edge than ever, employers are taking the piss at this point, and climate change is beginning to sting. All this is to say that it’s not just the workers feeling the pinch - it’s the petite bourgeoisie too. That scares capital enough to arm themselves more, but not enough to start making concessions.

For many, yes - this kind of thing is a reason not to vote for someone where open fascism is a non-event. It’s dumb, but it (kinda) works.

ITT: Bunch of people understandably blackpilled on the justice system.

Yeah - his campaign producing deepfaked support from her when she was busy keeping her views to herself couldn’t have motivated her to correct the record. This is just the personal stuff - the ways in which his policy positions and rhetoric negatively affect her and her fans is endless.

Trump fucked around with one of the few women he has reason to respect (by his framework) - she’s beautiful and wealthier than him. Now he’s finding out, and holy shit is he sore about it.

Why would meeting a political candidate be necessary to understand their policy positions and ability, advance then, and relative merits of the alternative? Democracy wouldn’t work if that were needed.

Who’d have thought the profit motive would lead to outcomes that aren’t always for the benefit of society.

There have been direct actions recently - they get subjected to media blackout. If you want to shift public sentiment, you need eyeballs - they get eyeballs, and while responses are obviously mixed, they lean positive over time.

To be fair, liberalism, while far better isn’t remotely close to being an adequate solution, but we all need to kick the can down the road by picking whatever least bad option is available to us.

Nosferatu needs to lay off the blood of the innocent for a bit - he’s clearly over-indulged.

Being less evil would be nice, but we can only reasonably expect so much.

If you’re spreading racist lies that are picked up and weaponised as a tool to stoke racist hatred in service of ending democracy to commit a series of genocides, you should fear for your safety - we call those consequences - morally good ones that benefit society at that.

This kind of stochastic terrorism should carry prison time.

It’s worth pointing out that a good portion of the US media is laundering this narrative - straightforward Goebbels shit with zero consequences - only profits, the end of democracy, then a series of genocides if the narrative works.

They did it because they want to genocide Palestine - this only creates a bunch of people with justifiable hatred of Israel and nothing to lose.

If they wanted to be safer, they wouldn’t have funded Hamas’ displacement of the secular moderates, gleefully committed and publicised thousands of warcrimes, established an ethnostate, conducted decades of land grabs, or scream maniacally about a second, bigger Amalek.

Because the genocide is the point.

Israeli leadership have admitted to funding Hamas’ displacement of the secular moderates with predictable results - the only credible explanation for this is that it was to manufacture the pretext for their current actions.

#justautocraticfascistethnostatethings

This guy performs material analysis.

Genuine question - at what point?

You do it early (now), and you push swing voters away and hurt your cause.

You do it after they have power, and you’ve manufactured the pretext for your extermination.
