Mods- Why the fuck would you remove this comment? It doesn’t violate any of your rules.
Quit fucking waiting until the election to bitch and moan about it. Start making actual changes now and it will still take 12 years, minimum. Get involved at a more local level. Take that shit over so that you actually end up having a voice at the national level.
The “mod” is the same user that made the post, he removes comments on every single post

“I’m changing the system from the inside”
Sorry are we supposed to be working on the assumption that there is some broad support for the mass revolt of the working class or something?
Protest, rally, petition, write, learn, educate, participate, vote. Doing only one is not doing enough.
What a stupid fucking take on the situation. We, the people, either stand up and take the power or we let whoever wants it have the power. One bug won’t due shit to the chicken. A million bugs will devour the chicken.
I think you are misinterpreting the comic. It shows the impossibility of changing the system from the inside, essentially calling for true systemic change instead of collaboration with it.
(at least that’s what I meant when posting it. might be that I am misinterpreting it)
This seems like a bad comparison because doesn’t the roach change the system by providing nutrients via digestion? Like if I eat vegetables my body will work better than if I eat junk food or straight up poison, which would give me the ability to make other meaningful changes rather than dealing with the health consequences. I guess I’m confused or overthinking this or something idk
The chicken is the system/capitalism. By your analogy the cockroach helps perpetuate the chicken as it’s consumed by it and provides nutriens
So you kill the chicken by starving it/cockroaches banding together and killing it and then…??? Again I’m genuinely confused and assume I’m just seeing the analogy wrong
feeding the chicken means perpetuating the system
I got it.
Just because it’s bullshit doesn’t mean it’s wrong. If you actually care maybe share memes about taking action instead of doomerism.
If you think the statement “democracy is on the ballot” is a lie, then let’s at least hear what’s in your mind, hmm OP?
Is it truly democracy if your only choice is between far right fascism and slightly less evil far right pro-genocide liberalism?
I hate fascism, but calling our two party system a democracy feels like a lie.
Democracy is a process, not the candidate of choice you’re given. Even if there’s 10 fascist on the ballot, if the election process is not hindered in any way, it is democracy. So yes, democracy is on the ballot. The alternative is dictatorship, monarchy, or autocracy.
It does feel like a sort of good cop bad cop setup in some ways, but we literally have a candidate openly advocating for fascism, concentration camps, and purging the government, this isn’t shouldn’t even be a choice this election and it shouldn’t be as close as it is.

Honey we had a president actively suppress nearly the entire scientific and medical community in an attempt to genocide up to 10% of the US population, while authorizing cops to outright harass and hunt down another 13% of the US population.
That was before the median person was born…

They weren’t safe, aren’t safe, will not be safe until we eliminate the US government and a other far right wing entities.

I’ve already voted child, and I’m not staying home no matter how much you people want us to. The fascist running for dem vp called the military against us. It didn’t stop us then. It won’t stop us the next timeyou people call the military out to suppress US…
Sometimes the facts are quite memeable
Vote for the big man and never for your manager in the workplace

Also a hard pill from the party that hates primaries (and it’s not just this cycle or 2020, the DNC blacklists consultants who work with primary candidates the party hasn’t ordained the winner for forever). Vote for the anointed one, the candidate (chosen by a legitimate primary election) on the other side is going to destroy democracy, which you can tell we cherish by not even trusting our own registered party members to vote for candidates!
It’s true, the Democrats are not our friends. But at least they’re not trying to actively set the house on fire while we’re in it.
They’re just wholly indifferent to the house fire as long as it doesnt inconvenience their donors.
What fucking house so you live in? Clearly not one with anyone that has ever encountered the US medical system or the nightmare that is the aca.
Maybe they aren’t coming from the position of privilege where they could actually afford medical care, so what place do they have to bitch about it other than not having it?
Boo hoo you have problems with your health insurance. Lots of people aren’t as privileged as you and can’t afford it.
But sure, go ahead and vote for Trump. He’s been working on his health plan for nearly a decade. It must be great! /s
Check yourself
The fuck are you saying. Reread and try again or get back to reddit with the rest of your far right Nazi pals that think genocide is necessary for you to continue existing.
There’s that entitlement, all raw and ugly.
At the very least the Dems are making a little twig fire in the middle of the floor but the republicans want to have a gasoline and magnesium fire.
Ah well in that case you can kill 3 million brown children. Go ahead, you have to do it to save yourself.
