spacemang_spliff posted:I can not wait to watch the democrats eat poo poo in 22 and 24 What I'm kind of accepting is that our country is so successfully alienated from the concept of politicians actually doing meaningful things to help them that this might not even happen. People have been so thoroughly indoctrinated with the idea that cultural signifiers are the most important thing about politics that they don't even have any higher expectations. like, especially given what lockstep the Dems have most media outlets and discussion spaces in (see: even in D&D on Something Awful, you can't say "Democrat Party" because it's a thing the Republicans have said as a way to swipe at the Dems, which makes it basically a slur), we're kind of firmly in  territory IMO

being a blue-team cheerleader is the only way to stave off authoritarianism even if you find yourself resorting to authoritarian methods, it's worth it to stave off authoritarianism our loving team-sport mentality is what's gonna kill this country

Add "privledge" to the growing list of words that has been rendered meaningless through overuse(as if AOC didn't already drive the nail into that one).

Yeah, I don't think the dems eating poo poo is a guarantee either. I have no idea what will happen, but recent dem behavior has rid me of the idea that 22/24 will be a red wave.

Yeah who the hell knows anymore. The Democrats could institute their new gas tax to screw over anyone that has to commute for a living and it doesn't matter since politics has entirely devolved into celebrity worship. Voting has been reduced to an award show where you phone in your favorite actor you see on cable news every few years so it doesn't matter what any of them do anymore.

I feel like in 2024 the Republicans are going to run another Romney and eat absolute poo poo. I think we are going to see a growing trend of poltiicans having more and more absurd scandals and just saying "gently caress off" since what are the voters going to do NOT vote for them out of principle lol? Why not just be as openly corrupt as possible if your base sees that as evidence of an international conspiracy against them? Eggplant Squire has issued a correction as of 16:04 on Mar 28, 2021 |

this is some extremely dumb poo poo right here. trump lost solely because of material conditions being so in the shitter that the suburban petty bourg abandoned him because they too were feeling the squeeze. were it not for corona and the economic meltdown he'd have walked to reelection also loving d&d isn't indicative of the electorate at large, jfc.

Every other discussion space is either boomered all to hell and back (ex: Facebook) or even worse than D&D (see: Reddit) Some of Twitter has escaped, but not a lot of it tbh

Biden and the Democrats are really tight with national security institutions at this point. I don’t see that changing.

Hampton grew up in the suburb of Maywood, which isn't really a ghetto. But, Malcolm X should definitely check his privilege for having the time and energy to educate himself while imprisoned.

That crazy ubereats carjacking video in DC is super weird because there's like a dozen NG at the end of it but they dont seem to think they have police power so they kind of just stand around but they're also clearly authorities so everyone is treating them like they can arrest people

Watching the Leftovers (brilliant show by the way) and seeing how the Guilty Remnant operated makes me think that perhaps a path towards the solution of our plight is not to agitate against the corporations (because they are too powerful and entrenched to care) but the workers, because while they live a dystopian existence, they want to distract themselves from it and just try to live whatever life they can. In other words they are asleep, and the biggest obstacle in changing the political landscape at all is to get them to wake the gently caress up. They don’t need suggestions of unionizing or marching for $15 min wage or solidarity or all this other bullshit that will get throttled in the crib, they need to be reminded that they’re slaves and their lives are worthless, as relentlessly and obnoxiously as possible. Because deep down they know things are hosed, and if they have to confront that then maybe it will spark something.

I just looked up why she closed her twitter account and it is ten times stupider than I was expecting. Basically she made an incredibly benign tweet in which she called the new Disney+ movie a Last Airbender knockoff and the internet had a meltdown because both franchises took inspiration from a third story that she wasn't aware of or something and apparently that's racist(?) and resulted in a flood of incredibly bad faith takes. I really wish I could properly explain to people how counterproductive this poo poo is. You're basically proving Fox News right when they talk about the horrors of cancel culture.

This election really was the most important one in our lives. We could have either elected Bernie Sanders or when the election was stolen from him, Trump. Either one would have better. I really think back to back losses would have maybe made some people start waking up to the fact that democrats are just as bad, if not worse than republicans and that if our power structure is going to smother any third party and demand there only be two then massive change to what is even considered a democrat needs to happen. Most people are hopeless but a non-zero amount of people might have used Trump winning again as motivation to push for real change and progress. Instead we got tens of thousands of suburbanites upset about mask laws punishing Trump and justifying everything the democrat party thought was true. 2016 was stolen by Russia! No need to change things! People prefer the rapist throwing children into cages and destroying the black community because he is the platonic ideal of a politician! Back to normal! At least he isn't orange man! Only possible outcome! Better Than Nothing!! Right at a pivotal moment when we are facing down climate apocalypse and world on the verge of meltdown in our lifetimes enough voters decided they wanted to live in the 1990s that we set the clock back 30 years to West Wing style bullshit and wastes of time while every Biden voter cheers on the fact that he is doing poo poo objectively worse than Trump but that the important thing is that he is not Trump. Justifying, excusing, empowering and enabling Democrats in 2020 is going to turn out to be one of the worst things to ever happen to the world.
