Being a leftist is fun because it's mostly you and your buddies very loudly saying "this system doesn't work and if we don't do anything about it shits gonna get bad" only to be told "shut up don't be unrealistic" and then shit gets bad and those same people are like "wow I hope you're happy."

Gerrymandering doesn’t just fall out of the fucking sky.
An outgroup can be created without any visible differences whatsoever: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cagot
And what society does is create and maintain structural inequality.

If I had a couple bucks for every dingbat who gets their ideas about Israel, Nazis, Communists, WW2, American foreign policy, etc from MOVIES, I'd be able to fund my own.

You break free of the system by choosing another option not by doing the same thing over and over.
Trans rights? Distraction
Planet dying? Distraction
Due proccess? Palestine? All distractions from the real problem we need to focus all our energy on: keeping the status quo! :D
Like
A. You do not know me we are strangers
B. How isssss alienating the leftists working out like, honestly I wanna know the internal strategy there
Yes.
Give me the damn pony.
Because when the other guys are in power, they understand that they can give themselves all the pies and ponies they want.
"no thats insane why would we do that"
Everything else is always hard won. Our media, tv, movies, ads, paint us as one thing, but reality looks that way to very few .

I live here too. I have eyes. I have experiences. Deal with it.
Them: ".....HEY LOOK OVER THERE!"
I'm beginning to think there's a reason people get mad at you.
Because what I'm replying to assumes otherwise.
Several other things as well, but we could start there.
other than to say she was only 99% Hitler. Ask them what the dealbreaker would be with her besides being GOP and they won’t tell you.

Even though again and again people's lived experiences showed they were struggling and eager for change.
Did you really think all of your imprecations would have no effect or consequence?
Bring on Trump's golden age!
I can leave a church. I'm STUCK here.
Their ideology supports the elite over the working class.

YEAH IT'S ALMOST AS IF SOCIETY HAS MULTIPLE PROBLEMS THAT COULD USE FIXING
Even if you want to argue about, say, the loss of insurance jobs we're STILL going to nee a LOT of people doing billing and coding those orders.
You geniuses act like the democrats ever had the opportunity to enact a policy like this, and just choose not to.

You genuinely think that if Congress passed a universal healthcare system, Biden would just veto it because his attitude is “Nah, fuck those people!”?
"Unity" in and of itself is not a policy position. Unity with whom around what?
Because most of these folk don’t think about politics beyond blue team good red team bad, and refuse to take any steps to rehabilitate their own team
Most liberals are either too comfy to be leftists or just haven’t had their own “line in the sand” moment where they pivot to the right.
As if seeing dark clouds outside means you made it rain.
So all i'd be doing is voting to kick the can down the road.
Lots of democrats that didn't vote.
Which indicates to me that you are right, as they complain so loudly.
They fucked up my insulin delivery and I would have had to go a almost 2 weeks without, but I was able to personally buy one pen of insulin out of pocket at a local pharmacy.
My next order was one pen short, because I bought one without insurance.
And if you dare criticize these people, you’re “purity testing”.
Once I realized Pelosi and the powers that be rather lose because it brings in more fundraising dollars, I can't unsee it.
It’s not much different than when you reword policies for republicans and they end up supporting some far left shit when you remove the word socialism.
Sanders people harassed others a ton. Well documented.

People govern THEMSELVES? The Left is CRAZY.
One of their biggest hitters has already lost their job to a Green and there are more to come soon.
The party can help you by being used as a drip tray That doubles as a threat. A democrat will be replaced in their job by a Green and then the threat to their job security becomes a metaphorical shock collar, the shock of which will make them do their jobs better.
Organise and act. To many US left-leaning folk seem to think sharing angry or supportive posts is action. ORGANISE.
Harris supporters voted for someone who supported fascism and genocide, and couldn't beat Trump.
So none of us beat Trump, but some of us voted for fascists and some didn't.
In the game of political chicken she chose genocide over winning.
WE SPENT HER WHOLE FUCKING CAMPAIGN TRYING TO PERSUADE HER
How the FUCK you think we were gonna be able to persuade her about anything once she already had the only thing she wanted from us: our votes?
And not taking responsibility and responding like a child. Par for the course.
Because you voted for some useless 3rd party turd because of your "conscience."
Context is wrong and the person who said it.
This was literally the easiest decision in any presidential election in history and you fucked it up and still won't admit it.
What, you mean like campaigning with Liz fucking Cheney? You mean like doing nothing to show a split from Biden on his terrible Israel/Gaza policies? You mean advocating for strict border control?
By the way I voted for her so skip the adhom in your response
And as easily fooled.
what more you want from us? blame the guys who had the power to lose the election, and took that opportunity
So, own your shit.
He might, he seems pretty dumb
Reality: Sorry we were paying attention as a fairly centrist person.
One of mine was using chatgpt for stocks advice like holy shit
Laughter, then a couple weeks later "Holy shit, you weren't joking were you?"
Hell no, you have the money to play these games. I assumed it was obvious lol
It'd be like walking into a business and asking to be paid for showing up. They'd be right to laugh you out the door.
My mom even said “well I’ve lived a pretty good life” just absolutely pretending like she wont be asking ME for help when it gets bad. It’s early covid all over again.
