Why do people keep voting for this bullshit? wtf is going on man?
humanity expects immediate results, so when something is broken, they dont think long term so they start shifting the other side quickly.
the general populace has goldfish memory.
It’s just so weird to me because I don’t really see that many people changing their political opinions that often.
People love enabling Nazis because they’re scared of the word communist.
I wish the left would just fucking rebrand and call it something else like “workerism” or some shit. Fascists do it all the time. Fascists will call themselves socialist and it fucking works. Why can’t we just do that shit.
They're called 'reactionaries' for a reason.
They do not think.
Because they're stupid.
Because they're stupid.
Fuck.
I second that
As the old Chilean philosopher said:
putalaweacsm
in english: unfathomable sorrow invades my spirit
The nazi?
I don’t claim to understand Chile’s politics…but it appears that he won the presidency, but doesn’t control the chamber or the senate.
No idea if he can govern effectively like that.
