Political Memes

All of this summarized: you’re complacent.

complacent with nothing happening, because literally nothing has happened.

You haven’t personally seen your friend taken by ICE. You’re not aware of the location, number, and scale of the camps and aren’t bothered by a few legal residents already being swept up.

have you? Do you have friends who have seen that? I live inland of the US, so anything regarding the border is literally irrelevant to my life. Forgive my ignorance by living literally hundreds of miles from texas. One of like two places where this is happening. Which again, is something that i think is objectively bad.

Did you know the camps in Germany were built for the same reason? Can’t ship out undesirables fast enough so we’ll just put them all here. We’ll give them some work to do as well to keep them productive.

yeah uh, i don't think i believe you on this one chief, maybe for the soviet death camps, but most certainly not for the jew camps. Did they accidentally build the gas chambers also?

The checks are not working. Injunctions are being ignored: funding is still being withheld and jobs are not being reinstated.

yeah, shit takes time. It's going to be a while before anything happens. There was a block ordered by a federal judge on the funding freeze anyway. So at least SOMETHING, has happened, unless those are being explicitly ignored. Jobs aren't being reinstated, sure, that's because the jobs to reinstate those jobs, are gone. That's going to take some time to fix.

Yes, a lot of things can happen to the bus. But if you’re not fighting to take the wheel from the maniac you see then all as acceptable outcomes. What “better efforts” can you possibly put above this?

yeah but this isn't a hijacked plane flying straight towards the twin towers, this is a bus being driven by a crackhead. Is it safe to be on? Probably not, but is it a death sentence? Not necessarily. it may be more dangerous to get off the bus, pose a risk to yourself or someone else, than it is to stay on the bus, who knows.

Did you participate in the economic protest today or did you have better things to do?

you mean the one where people didn't buy anything for one day, because that will surely show all corporations how to not fuck shit up? Because yes, i did participate it, by virtue of me not being a gross consumer of garbage. I just don't buy that many things, and i just so happened to not be buying anything that day, or most days, or most weeks, even.

Being aware, organizing, resisting and preparing are not the same thing as moping.

i'm certainly not moping, i'm busy trying to figure out what the fuck is wrong with public sentiment of politics right now. I may not be solving the problem, but i may be on the path to a breakthrough for this retarded shit.

Or who knows, maybe i am doing shit, and i just don't talk about it online, because it's really fucking boring.
