People tend not to like the solutions I come up with. Something something collateral damage, violence is always bad (except when it helps found the country for some reason?), no 2024 totally wasnt stolen, ect ect.
Take - and make - your opportunities to change minds. Don’t be afraid, but be careful. Don’t be polite for the sake of politeness, but be kind, be considerate, even be gentle when you think it will help, but don’t be polite.
Not to put too fine a point on it: No.
The horses have been led to the water many times. They are welcome to drink whenever they choose. The time for talking is over.
I’m out of this mess through the system. They didn’t do shit to stop me getting on a plane and flying across the ocean last Monday to a more civilized part of the world. It has its own problems, but at least people don’t get into things like massive healthcare debt.
So replace the term “both parties” with “the only party” by categorically discarding all faith and worship in all political parties that have done absolutely nothing for anyone of the working class.
And I’m sure their policies would introduce runoff voting for future elections; but as it stands, most voters are currently voting out of fear of “the other big party” - for which voting Green poses an extreme risk.

Which is a confidence game. The big parties only matter because people have been convinced that they matter. Once this illusion is broken, real progress can begin, but until it is broken the US will simply continue its vicious cycle into oblivion.
Besides, what chance to Dems have of winning at this rate anyway? What chance did they have leading up to this past election as they covered up Biden’s dementia, enabled a genocide, and imposed a candidate of their choosing after denying the people actual democracy? Are they redeemable?
This comic depicts four people who couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to anything for ten years.
I have no sympathy.
So the vast majority?
That is correct.
That doesn’t help the cause though, in fact this exact attitude might be a pretty big part of why we’re all in deep shit now.

I like you. Keep spreading the message.
Well said, my friend.
I oy wish i were actually capable of that. But my autistic ass is inherently alienating for some reason. Best thing I could do is shut up

ten65 yearsWhat option were they given?
To pay attention or to not pay attention…
Pay all the attention you want, it’s not like anyone was ever actually given the option out of this mess through the system.

Voting. They were given the option to vote, but chose to be the type that “don’t care much about politics”
Why would they bother? Who actually represents them? Both major parties are corporate captured.
One of them isnt trying install a theocracy.
No, they just stepped aside and profited from donations while it happened
Sure buddy, Dems might be nearly uselesss because of that, but they weren’t actively trying to overthrow the goverment or kill democracy
No, they just stepped aside and profited from donations while it happened
Did you ever canvass for any alternative candidate or do you expect them to just rise out of the ether?
So replace the term “both parties” with “the only party” by categorically discarding all faith and worship in all political parties that have done absolutely nothing for anyone of the working class.
Then make a new party that’s even better.
That’s what the Greens and PSL elected to do. They’re the best way out that doesn’t involve bloodshed.

The status quo vs … gestures wildly ???
If the status quo was working, people would have gone with it
Well, this new alternative is working out wonderfully.
“BoTH siDes aRe the SAme!”
Yes, yes they are. Actually the Republicans at least have the virtue of being honest about being evil. Dems are too craven to even admit that.
