you CANNOT convince me this has EVER worked. this current reality is the culmination of dozens of decades of failure.

if you think it has, you’ve drank the koolaid. you’re the governments fool. congratulations on your anti-intellectualism. your head is in the clouds.

any country that allows people to sleep on the street, die on the street, go to bed starving, file bankruptcy for medical care, massively incarcerates its citizens to propel its economy IS A FAILED COUNTRY.

oh you “picked yourself up by your bootstraps”? you came from “rags to riches”? cool. you’re an outlier. you shouldn’t be a headline. you’re being used for propaganda.

sometimes, empathy keeps us from recognizing the relationships that drag us down from the goal of a better life for all of us. i can hold empathy for your struggles while recognizing your behavior and attitude is counterproductive. im not required to hold space for it. figure it out without me.

i believe in everyone’s right to suck equally while still receiving food, shelter, health care, autonomy, and safety.

but we don’t have that in this system. we still have to fight for it. just because we deserve it doesn’t mean it’s real.

i’m so tired of these traits being normalized as quirky or charming. to me, these are serious failings as an individual asking for more community while contributing none of it.

leftist women who have no self control over adopting animals she cannot afford to feed are not women who can be trusted with resource planning. 8 animals in a starter home IS UNFAIR TO THE ANIMALS. you’re not cinderella. you’re compulsive.

leftist women who would rather door dash papa john’s 5 nights of the week instead of learn how to cook are not women who can do what it takes in lean times.

leftist women who cannot see the value in taking care of your poor mental health, your poor physical health, or even learning defense with firearms are not women who can think into the future.

leftist women who flake at any inconvenience and cannot contribute to a friendship equally are not women i can build community with.

leftist women who stay with men who play video games all day resulting in a job loss that contributes to their joint mortgage are not women who i can trust.

This whole debate is so tiring. We need to overthrow capitalism and have working class in control of means of production. Debating about what policies for elections is meaningless because after the revolution politicians won't choose policy, working class will.

why do they video tape themselves being so fucking dumb and then decide “i should post this thing showing how fucking dumb i am and have always been”

?????

It's actually making things worse. The things you think you are championing you are undermining by using AI. The causes you care about are harmed by it, you're normalizing its use, your anesthetizing people from critical thinking. We can't combat lies with more lies, especially AI shit.
