Killing some old white dudes with other old people is not the tactic to rely on.

You need the young and radicalized who are terminal.

I wish, wish, wish I had faith in the system, checks and balances, and all that bullshit.

Violence should only be used in self defense when violence is going to be used on you, or to protect other who can not protect themselves.

Fascism, sadly, only seems to understand pain and suffering. I suppose a clean kill is more merciful than that, though I can't say I condone it outright.

To be clear, Australia is not perfect by a long stretch, but our politicians are much more discrete in their desire for enrichment, we also have a lot more guard rails in place to prevent it, while they are in office.

While there is obviously big business trying to influence government decisions, that will always happen regardless of who we vote in. My point is, if the person you vote for isn’t clearly concerned with improving the lives of their constituents you should absolutely fuck them off and not continually vote for them for decades.

True story.

Most highschoolers ignored me. They had no idea what healthcare is. They think it is free.

They feel invincible, as expected.

I stressed the importance of volunteering because there are many people are uninsured and underinsured.

why wait? I was hoping you americans would have acted by now but...psh I'm not holding my breathe anymore. almost any other country would be rioting, violently, right now but you guys have zero leaders to rally anything. and any thing close to an opposition leader you have is saying "just wait for the midterms!" yeah...ok buddy either you'll be lucky if your dear leader allows midterms to happen OR they do, dems win across the board, but most of this shit goes into effect AFTER said midterms thus the nazi's blame the dems for everything and ensure glorious leader wins a 3rd term.

The mental gymnastics so many non-voters use to convince themselves that their lazy mediocrity is not a HUGE part of the problem. They exert a hundred times the energy to stab themselves in the chest with a rusty knife, and as gangrene sets in, they fancy themselves as hero martyrs, because they so bravely did nothing of value to stop this. Useless deadweight flakes that they are.

we have to stop blaming voters for their apathy and instead try to understand why a campaign fails to mobilize them. scolding a voter for rejecting persistent mediocrity implies that we must accept it, simply by virtue of being less bad. pragmatically, this makes sense but not everybody has the privilege of accepting the least bad option when doing so appears to have little impact on their present untenable situation.

i exercise what little power i have to try to keep fascists from power but if others weren't motivated to do the same, we have to actually speak to their grievances. Kamala campaign had every opportunity to reach these people and instead chose to basically say, "fuck what you want, we don't need your votes." so when she gets BTFO across the country, she has nobody to blame but herself for running a campaign that failed to stand for anything her constituents cared enough to vote for (i know there is also always voter suppression that favors Republicans too but she also failed to pursue effective legal remedy for that).

yeah it sucks hard that this happened, especially so for those of us first on the chopping block for fascism. but to break the cycle, the impetus is on our politicians to be better, not on the voters to settle for worse.

Work requirements. Other states have done this before. They all canned it because they found out, work requirements don't increase work. It decrease the use of those that qualify. It increases paperwork which can be rejected by errors.

You also have the SSDI part. Most people that are disabled don't qualify for SSDI.

I personally know someone that had double kidney failure. This is from a direct issue the U.S. government caused acknowledged. However, they don't what to make it easy and hope the people just die. Which is a very strong possibility. They DO NOT qualify for SSDI.

Next time they get sick, they will die. Point Blank.

Clinton explicitly didn't support segregation. One of the biggest influences in his life was his mom's parents, who he spent a significant portion of his childhood living with. They owned a grocery store and faced frequent harassment and threats because they refused to segregate their business. There's plenty to go after Big Willy for but this particular point is incorrect. You can't even shoehorn in his VP like with Obama because Gore was an avid civil rights supporter as well.
