5·1 year agoRight, there’s no way they would do something super unethical and try to apply their words differently to a sitting president above reproach in comparison to the convicted felon running for office.

4·1 year agoHonestly having Trump swear on one of his stupid red hats with MAGA would probably be the equivalent to his version of swearing on the Bible. After all, his word is gospel to his mouth breathing cult.

Looks pretty effective.
Call me naive and ignorant, all you want. Many of the policies that have positively shaped anything over the past 50 years are being undone, in a quick and dramatic fashion like Roe v. Wade. We’re governed by chriso-fascists, anti-intellectuals, or the elderly in every branch of government. The only things that happen slowly are the things designed to benefit the many and are only passed because of concessions to benefit the few. It’s an open secret you can bribe congress and Supreme court justices without consequences. Appointing unqualified judges to supreme and federal courts gets you a get out of jail free card.
How can the working class hope to influence policy if everyone they elect (by overcoming voter surpression and gerrandering) or who is appointed can be “lobbied”, bribed, blackmailed or given gifts to further their respective billionaires agendas?
Given the results of the encampments and the results of our elected officials it looks like hitting the poles is > just misguided energy.
One quick edit to say that everyone should still vote because we’re all fucked if that fascist mango colored felon gets elected.

89·1 year agoThe youth are more than capable of understanding politics, and that’s a large reason they don’t engage. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out the system is flawed and their votes in gerrymandered districts aren’t going to have a significant impact on elections, policy, laws, or the illegitimate court that subverts the will of the people.
If protesting is what needs to be done to get politicians attention and potential change then that already is the more effective option.
