A ~~cool~~ guide to the fascist future

We're in this situation because people don't vote.

All other forms of political activism, aside from murder, exist to convince people to vote.

Activism without voting is worthless.

You want more progressive candidates? Vote for Democrats until Republicans are forced to move to the left, and then Democrats will be able to move to the left as well.

That's how the Overton window works.

xkcd #2842: Inspiraling Roundabout

Reply in thread

I'm american and work right next to a roundabout. It gets a pretty low amount of traffic but I still see people stop in the middle or go around backwards all the time.

That said, I see drivers doing the stupidest things pretty much everywhere, so the roundabout isn't exactly making things worse.

Biden is pushing for a ceasefire and sanctioning settlers, while Trump said that Israel should "finish the problem".

If you consider a Palestinian who hasn't lost their family yet, there's a pretty obvious difference between the two candidates.

I haven't said anything on the subject before, because I don't care very much, but I don't know what the alternative is supposed to be. It's not like someone who is that famous can walk into a public airplane without putting her own safety at risk and causing trouble for other passengers.

It's also well known that conservatives really hate her because she told her fans to vote and these memes are part of their effort to discredit her. Whether the point has any merit or not, it's obvious who started the trend and who it's helping.

Why the fuck aren’t more people pressuring him with questions like this?

Because they'll never get another interview with him, or most other Republican politicians. It's a pathetic reason, but that's all it takes.
