We will never fix the problems we face without confronting the underlying problem, capitalism. Prove me wrong.

Predictable but still amazing to watch people who spent literally years accusing every librarian, teacher, and trans person they could find of sexually grooming children suddenly throw themselves in with "actually it's ephebophilia"
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

Hating the ruling class is not going to be enough. We need to be guided by great feelings of love towards our fellow working class members. It is this love that will see us through the hardships that we will be forced to face in the days to come.

The majority of the Democratic party is captured by billionaire donors.
This is why we need worker owned corporations and to tax billionaires for all their money.
Until we ditch capitalism the owner class will continue to destroy our democracy in order to extract wealth via the labor of workers.

Another side effect is that denying people SNAP will lead to more poor people having to steal food so it'll give justification for the regime to "restore order from out of control crime"

Just like Iraq, there is only one reason we seem to be going to war with Venezuela. Oil. Aren't we tired of this yet?

Yeah, the real problem is both parties do not give a single 💩 about the working class.
If they formed a platform of abolishing ice, universal healthcare, and unconditional universal basic income, while taxing the rich and corporations, they would be popular.

You're not on staff for loss prevention, and there is nothing noble about protecting corporate profit margins over protecting your neighbors.
Remember, if you're shopping and you see someone stealing food, no you didn't.

Denouncing modern art (AKA "Degenerate Art") was the only part of the Nazi playbook that had been missing from Stephen Miller's commentaries.
