“You must be fun at parties.” Uh why would I want to party with Nazis?

“So edgy.” If I cared what liberals thought, I wouldn’t be a communist.

“You’re just a larper.” Larp it till you make it, am I right? Also, what have larpers ever done to you?

“Nazism and communism are the same.” Yes, Nazism is when you want to destroy Nazism forever rather than fund it the way you do.

Back in 2021 for a couple months I had some fun needling the libs who were lecturing me that I was "unrealistic" and I didn't know how politics worked. I'd wait for the right time and then I'd say something like "Oh, I get it. You think we shouldn't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. That Joe Fucking Manchin phrase is going to get so much stuff done!"

archive.today • Joe Biden Says He Has Infrastructure Deal With Bipartisan Senators Group - Bloomberg

June 24, 2021

One of the key moderate Democrats and a member of the bipartisan group that worked on the infrastructure plan, West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin, urged progressives to support the deal. “I would say please don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good,” he told reporters Thursday.

Of course the joke ended up being that the actual enemies of the good - Manchin, Sinema, and other shit but silent dems - got everything they wanted.
