Just came across a FB post that elaborates nicely, with which I agree completely:
Screenshot of a Facebook post by the page "Guillotines For A Better America" which reads: "It doesn't matter how old people are for this...Telling people to relocate is just a privileged piece of advice. If someone is struggling to survive, they don't have the money to relocate, and they certainly don't have the money to relocate somewhere that likely doesn't have any decent jobs... The entire system is the problem. It can cost thousands of dollars to move. You need the money to actually get there, you then need to have at least 2 months worth of rent, money for the other fees and deposits, which is thousands more...and those problems are amplified if that person is also disabled...It's not as easy as "just move", and if you thought about it, and could understand the reality for others, you wouldn't even make this suggestion...but I've seen some comments suggesting exactly that...holy hell." This comments on a screenshot of a Twitter post by user "Nat," username @NanoPierogi, which reads: "20-something: My rent is incr- Some guy™™: Why do you live somewhere so expensive? Have you considered moving to a dilapidated shack in a swamp? You think there aren't jobs??? My buddy got a job kidnapping children for bog witches. It's not glamorous but it pays well.

Meme from the Pulitzer Prize-winning photo by Ryan Kelly of the 2017 Charlottesville white supremacist terrorist attack, where a neonazi drove a car through a crowd of people protesting a nearby white supremacist rally, killing Heather Heyer and injuring 35. The picture shows the car plowing through a crowd of people holding signs, with several people tumbling through the air. The caption says "IT'S OK / THE DRIVER WAS JUST ROMAN PARKING."

Came across this today, seemed relevant
Erika Chappell - Professional Simp... 10h essentially an enormous part of the reason that online leftist spaces suck so much is that they are filled with people who believe it is more important to do nothing wrong than it is to do something right

I am not. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleansi...
Screenshot of a paragraph from the linked Wikipedia article that reads "A common interpretation is that Jesus was reacting to the practice of money changers routinely cheating the people, but Marvin L. Krier Mich observes that a good deal of money was stored at the temple, where it could be loaned by the wealthy to the poor who were in danger of losing their land to debt. The Temple establishment therefore co-operated with the aristocracy in the exploitation of the poor. One of the first acts of the First Jewish-Roman War was the burning of the debt records in the archives."

Reminds me of a meme
Screenshot of tweet by Abby Menorahmal (@MrsTomServo) that reads "Hey, look, I get it. It's difficult to admit white privilege is real when you've amounted to very little despite it."

Top panel has Bart Simpson saying "The FBI has very strict guidelines for when they can open investigations," with a freaked out, worried look on his face. In the second panel, Homer Simpson is bending over to put one hand on Bart's shoulder while extending an index finger in front of his face and saying "For now."

Photo of a young man, Luigi Mangione, in a couch like easy chair in what looks like a dorm room living room with a laptop computer on his lap. Top legend says, "This was a young man with a good education and a bright future." Bottom legend says, "I don't think we should define him by one mistake and let it ruin his life."

Why is *Teen Vogue* publishing so much, which is to say all, of the best actual journalism that I've seen about this story? It's like the only national publication actually engaging with the political reality that underpins it instead of just squeaking "Murder bad!" and I am freaking out right now.
A meme of Mugatu, the villain of the movie Zoolander, yelling "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!" Image is of Will Ferrell in heavy eyeliner, bleached eyebrows, a suit with a crazy red and black pattern on it, a bright yellow cravat, and white, intricately coiffed hair and goatee screams something at someone off camera, with the all-caps caption, "I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS."

Post a PERFECT album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana or Pearl Jam
The cover of Collective Soul's fourth album, "Dosage. A beautiful woman with striking orange and purple makeup or lighting has eyes closed and mouth open. Her mouth is full of honey, which also covers her right cheek, and bees are swarming about and landing on the bottom half of her face and in her mouth, although the photo looks slightly manipulated; you're not quite sure if the bees were added after the original photo was taken or not.

"The 'middle-class' is a faux class. It never really existed. If you have a boss, and earn wages or salary, you are a worker, and should be proud to be in the working class. The term 'middle class' isolates more privileged workers for the benefit of the powerful so that anyone outside of elite circles will be divided and fighting against each other instead of fighting institutions and the power structure." - David Graeber

Meme with the text "Remember to keep Christ in Christmas" in large font at the top. Below, in smaller font is written, "And that he was a Middle-Eastern guy who gave away free food and healthcare, literally whipped people who were profiting from religion, and told the rich to pay their taxes." Also pictured is a Buddy Christ statue from the movie Dogma, as well as a "Politerate America" watermark.
