bro change your fucking name, transition, DO SOMETHING. JUST CHANGE IT TO JOEY STEEL UNFUCK THE VIBES
No fucking way this is real 😭😭😭😭
Had some ‘moderate socialist’ sort on BlueSky link me this article a while back. I was not impressed.
The gist of this article, as I understand it, is that people should stop waiting for parties to start catering to them politically and instead start getting personally involved in their political parties. Which is a load of horseshit. There are an abundance of meaningful forms of political action, and even ignoring the fact that joining the Democratic Party has not yet proven to be one of them, there are always going to be a large amount of people who are unable to or simply do not want to waste years of their lives reforming the Democratic Party from within, and for those people, voting will simply be comparing the negatives and positives of groups that they are not involved with.
In a way it’s a similar kind of idealism to the Twitter leftists who believe all leftists should have read entire libraries of communist literature. The primary difference is that, while unrealistic, it would be an unequivocally good thing for more people to read more communist literature. “Everybody should simply join the Democratic Party” is not only an unrealistic mission statement, but an ideologically flaccid one.
Our new friends fit perfectly here.
Good article but if my name was Joseph Gubbels I would strongly consider changing that
so this shithead’s parents had to be nazis, right? I mean they knew what they were doing here. and this guy is making a conscious choice to try to be an author with this name. at least Office Space Michael Bolton’s “why should I have to change my name, he’s the one who sucks” has the benefit of Michael Bolton being alive
Eh they kind of miss the point. The problem is the parties are so misaligned from many peoples views that they’re both worthless and they have no interest in changing as such its impossible to get them to shift policies.
Basically need to just replace them
How about I’m allowed to vote on policies and the capital critters I elect are just the beaurocrats and beancounters that enact those policies instead of whatever the fuck is going on now?
But the DNC swore I can save America just by sending them $10.
“Just $10 bro fr, we can end fascism with your $10 donation. Come on bro plz.”
What a fucking load of horseshit
Two more votes and I get a free small fry from Wendy’s.
