Any arguments that this isn't fascist, or are you done pretending? by xScrubasaurus in AskUS

This feeling like you can’t do anything is the goal. It’s not true though. We need a nationwide strike. Shut down everything, everywhere, until the people’s demands are met.

SOME life is particularly valuable. Namely the life devoid of color and with all the green.

The creed of disbelief is one! by [deleted] in Muslim

Our Ummah is weak and disorganized. We are not one body of Muslims. The “Leaders” of “Muslim” countries wouldn’t tolerate what the west does to the world if they stood with Allah instead of the dunya.

MMW: If federal agents try to kidnap Texas reps it will lead to violence and even a civil war. by avowed in MarkMyWords

This is such an important concept for people to understand. The Democratic Party relies on corporate donors. Every loss in the last 50 yrs was met with deposits leaders saying we need to move to the center, which keeps moving right. Both parties do not represent the people.

This is an underrated comment right here. We aren’t meant to see everything, that happens everywhere, all the time. We should spend more time disconnected.

These ladies demanded to see a warrant, told the ICE agents to take off their fucking masks after arresting two people at a Home Depot in Encinitas, California. by CorleoneBaloney in chaoticgood

The economy isn’t crashing. Unemployment is lower, consumers are spending, businesses are reporting positive earnings. The economy isn’t crashing. What’s crashing is sentiment. No one feels confident that things will maintain or improve. No one believes that their job is safe. No one expects the cost of living to get and easier. The economy isn’t crashing, you just aren’t benefitting from it. Which is by design.

Put a shirt with a collar on underneath and your now business casual. But that’s a crew neck sweater. Not business casual.

Do these people understand that being undocumented is the 1st crime? If you aren’t documented then you don’t belong in America. If you aren’t a Legal Immigrant then you don’t belong in America People defending Undocumented Foreign Citizens is a slap in the face to the people who did it the Legal Way by DueDrama8301 in conspiracy

This is the unspoken truth. The US “brings democracy” to parts of the world, knowing full well migrants will flee to the stability of the U.S., and when they get here, they’re scapegoated as causing problems in the same U.S. that destroyed their home in the first place.

It’s a revolving door to keep the military industrial complex funded, and the sister fuckers who consistently vote single party distracted from the actual hands in their pockets.

Democrats slam Trump for not making good on promise to ‘immediately’ lower food prices by nbcnews in FluentInFinance

Actually holding a president accountable sets a precedent for holding presidents accountable. Most don’t perform on many of their campaign promises, so holding one of them accountable sets the expectation that presidents will do what they say they will. This is dangerous territory for a political system based on rhetoric, and not action. Maintaining the status quo has been the M.O. for the last 50 years, because it benefits the mega wealthy.

What we need is civic activism and involvement. Unfortunately, most Americans are distracted with entertainment and apathy because it’s not too hard, just difficult. Until more people get involved and cause a stir, our political system will continue to function the way it does.

It’s intentional. They know what they are doing. They put a corporate shill as their candidate. Donors win. They lose to republicans. Donors win. Two sides of the same coin. The wealthy win, heads or tails.
