well this sure showed the dems didn't it. sure there'll be some acceptable losses under trump. but thats ok if get the chance to do what exactly? watch the genocide get less media attention as it continues? watch violent crackdowns on any protests? make a convincing graph showing the increase in queer kids not doing the alive thing anymore? whats the grand plan? bitch about the dems in the mid* terms if they still happen?
What's your grand plan to fight against all that? Bitch on lemmy? Were you doing anything against the very real scenario of all these coming to pass instead of clearly ineffectual electoralism?
Fuck was your plan to stop the genocide in Palestine asshole, go kill Net with the brassy swinging of your massive balls? Go fuck yourself, you ain't helping anyone, Palestinian or otherwise.
Not propping up the system causing genocides is a good start. You can't expect to keep doing all the actions that sustain and show endorsement to the status quo for decades, but then want to stop one single thing caused by that system immediately.
been a little busy up to this morning trying to talk friends and family on the left into participating in the thing. my plan didn't work. the protest voters and unmotivated who wont be harmed by any of this won. congrats. now we still* have to do all the plans too? no plan for after the protest votes got dreamed up? i'm shocked. i'll be busy for the next few weeks now talking my queer friends and family out of their very real panic and making sure their mental health is ok. then theres still a perfectly good political party sitting there i'd like to get back to hijacking please. it's right fucking there. why do we all keep acting like we need to burn it down and start over. just take their toys.
You can't change the system from within. "Take their toys" doesn't work and has never worked.
it's literally what mega just got done doing.
