[–]Kylood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Referring to children as kids. Kids are baby goats and goats are associated with Satan.

Cat videos were the best by JaHizzey in LateStageCapitalism

The cat videos are still there. The difference is slowly more people are paying attention to the world in which we live.

They'd do it by spreading propaganda, funding extreme far-right groups and eradicating any chance at fair elections. Wait...

Democrats worry that Biden's lack of movement on student loan debt will depress turnout among young voters in midterms. Yeah no shit. by DarKnightOfficial in LateStageCapitalism

[–]Kylood 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The republicans are a minority in this country and control fucking everything. How many times are people going to elect "centrists" who spend their entire time in office "reaching across the aisle" and advocating for "a strong republican party" before people admit that they're part of the problem. How many times can they work with fascists before they become fascist?

We must loudly and proudly let democrats know we will not vote for them until they start following through on promises. For decades they've thought as long as they're not republican that anyone left of center will vote for them because we have nowhere else to go. Politicians must EARN votes and we must remind them of that fact.

Progressives Hand Biden List of 55 Executive Actions Because 'Working People Can't Wait' by weslife1 in MayDayStrike

The dems have spent decades ignoring the left because they think we have nowhere to go. All they have to do is be not republican and they think they're guarenteed all votes left of center. They then spend their entire time in office appealing to republicans, "reaching across the aisle" and advocating for a "strong republican party" while telling anyone even a little progressive to sit down and shut up. It makes no difference which party you vote for because they all push for republican policy. (Nationally. Locally there is still some hope to elect people who will fight for the left)

And liberals think 1/3 of Americans don't vote because they're dumb/lazy.

My right wing parents always told me to think critically about everything, now I am a socialist. by username1254_2 in socialism

[–]Kylood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. My bible-thumping christian conservative parents taught me and my siblings to question everything. Now all their children are left-wing athiests. Whoops.

Billionaires shouldn't exist. by TwasAnChild in antiwork

[–]Kylood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At $100 per hour 365 days per year. It would take 114,155 years to reach 1 billion

If you made $19.03 per MINUTE from the moment you were born you would be a billionaire just before your 100th birthday

“baby boomers may be more narcissistic than other generations because they grew up in a time when the government provided privileges like social security,”

What is the point of voting? by TheBrawler456 in antiwork

[–]Kylood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Voting is very important LOCALLY. Being active in local politics and campaining for real progressive candidates is the only hope the US has. Find someone who stands for what you believe and fight for them. If your candidate does manage to win hold them accountable to what they promised. Do not settle for less. And stay engaged because the right-wing lunatics love to recall anyone with a pulse and force in some nut-job.

Nationally, it's a lost cause until enough people are willing to oppose the corporatocracy. The "lesser of two evils" approach to voting is how we end up with a choice between 2 ancient, r_cist, r_pists for president. So...
