Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.

Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.

This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.

That might have made sense in 2013 but we’ve had less than 50 dems every congress since then

We had 50 from 2020-2022. We gave them the seats. They squandered their majority. Because that's what Democrats do.

A better solution is to just give Dems 60.

We did that in 2008. They found enough no votes. They always do.

You really think Republicans better represent you?

I think they better represent you.

We actually didn't have 50 in 2020-2022. We only had Dem majority with caucusing independents.

Splitting hairs now?

It wasn't the independents that voted with republicans.

You got caught in a blatant lie and so I'm "splitting hairs".

[–] Ensign_Crab 1 points 3 days ago

Oh christ. We're done. Saying that democrats had a majority when their caucus had a majority isn't a blatant lie. It wasn't the independents that voted with republicans.

It was democrats who voted like you wanted them to.
