the democrats have proven that they're not going to stop this and your fellow liberals are more politically aligned w you than w me; so what are you doing to prevent it?
The bare minimum. Admittedly it's not much, but even .0000000000000001 is infinitely larger than 0.
I'm not any less disillusioned with the system than you are. But I also admit to myself honestly that I am not going to get out there and man the barricades. At least the minimum is SOMETHING.
You don't like the options? Fine. You should at least be building another one. What are you, a nihilist?
Democrats had options.
Remember Marianne Williamson?
Democrats were all like, nah, give me the guy with evident public dementia instead.
Every single time, it's like a broken record.
Nobody thinks the democrats did the right thing in 2024. It's not like you're delivering some special message everyone didn't get. The primary was shit and the party is shit. I'll give you the gold star for correctly identifying that there's a problem if you want. But identifying the problem is not a SOLUTION. What's your plan? What have you got? Because all I see is endless harping on the problem, and that's nothing.
There's microplastics in the food. So what? Am I going to stop eating?
Any schmuck can sit there and complain and nitpick. Let me know when you've got ACTIONS TO TAKE TO SOLVE IT. Contradiction is not a plan.
The way I'm constantly hearing complaints and observations without a lick of solutions or activity, it's like I'm listening to the mainstream media.
Jesus Christ, this must be a bot. Clearly their code must suck hard if they're literally saying "it's your problem, not mine, I'm doing the bare minimum, drinking my dioxin kool-aid while complaining about everyone else not doing the work for me". What a pathetic excuse for self-justification.
Rage, you sad fuck, rage against the dying of the light. Your utter lack of conviction belies your inner paucity of self.
Also not a plan or a solution. You're free to attack me all day - it won't change anything one way or another. I just wish I could hear SOMETHING about what you expect people to do instead of what you expect them to NOT do.
Go forth into the streets. Go forth with thy torch and pitchfork. Make government afraid of its people, by whatever means necessary. Tear down the institution of corpocracy, block the infrastructure on which the profit margins rely. Do you want something that will ACTUALLY make things change? Use human bodies to block I-80 westbound from NY and eastbound through the Sierra Nevada. Block I-95 southbound from Bethesda. THAT will get a response. There may not be a single magic bullet, but I can sure as hell say that loafing fuckers like you who fiddle while their planet burns are the worst of us. Apathy is worse than action of any kind. Unlike the souls of the poor deluded fuckers who believe that what their leaders tell them to do will make their world better, people like you have convinced themselves that inaction is prudence, your soul is just a cobwebbed hollow where once might have burned fire. Have you truly not noticed that your accusation of nihilism above is projection? Can you not see the imbecility of complaining that all you can read are complaints?
Go touch grass, thou frost-limned concretion of flesh. Maybe you'll thaw enough to appreciate the Bermuda Grass before it, too, falls to the impending doom to which we are all damned.
Totally, man.
I'm the problem.
