I really hate to tell you this but 80% of the country thinks the dems are either communists or the ultimate arbiter of good.

There is very little actual criticism of the dem party from the left under current political framework.

Universal Healthcare, workers rights, and a higher minimum wage are all incred8bly popular.

Until somebody on fox or cnn says those policies are too far left and 4/5ths of the country nods in agreement.

They’re promising that everybody will have more than enough after telling all the people who correctly said they didn’t have enough they were wrong for 4 years.

I can not describe how much it’s going to piss people off if the democrats claim to be for abundance after 4 years of telling people “actually the economy great, I don’t give a fuck if everything in the grocery store has doubled in price in 12 months look at this graph you fucking dumbass”

I mean seriously, “fight for $15” has floundered for so long it’s not even viable anymore. I really can’t wait to see the reaction when the people who have shived anybody who says “Medicare for all” start trying this utopianism bullshit.

“Well make sure there’s abundance”

“I can’t afford groceries and just got kicked of off snap and everybody who has ever said the word abundance supported that”

Yes it’s always weird when people say they dont have time to prove these things so instead they just spend 12 consecutive hours insisting they are right with no supporting evidence and in the face of increasingly well documented and sourced counterpoint.

Is it more important than all of the evidence that shows they no longer exist and were greatly exaggerated (most charitable description).

Follow up, how does this compare to all the evidence that America is currently doing what they accused China of doing with thoroughly debunked claims.

Bernie sanders is not a Democrat he’s an independant.

That’s what the other person means liberals suck, berries slightly better but he’s not a Democrat.

Because the “concentration camp” doesn’t still exist

Do you think the picture matters more than the actual existence of them?

It’s simply an astro-turfing tactic to make it appear that I’m the unreasonable one to outsiders viewing this.

You literally refusing to even watch the video this post is about or read any of the info provided but still making dozens of comments insisting you’re right and we’re all propogandized is doing a way better job of that then any of us could hope to

You can’t be fucking serious.

So not only doyou refuse to even engage with anything that doesn’t come from your pre approved list of sources when somebody takes rhe time to actually compile a bunch of sources and wrote up a summary for you that also isn’t acceptable.

It’s almost like you are completely fucking brainwashed to immediatly reject literally any sort of information that doesn’t match up with your personal opinion which just so happens to exactly match the opinion of the state department.

Americans truly are the most willfully ignorant propogandized people in the world.

China has like half the pollution of us or are you gonna do that thing liberals do where they suddenly don’t understand what per capita is when this topic comes up.

So you do not consume any media that isn’t from a source you have already deemed to be “trustworthy” ahead of time.

Have you ever heard of the term “information bubble”

It’s not a “source”

It’s a YouTube video. An opinion. You determine whether that opinion is trustworthy or not by watching the video and seeing if the conclussions he puts forward make sense to you.

Or you can just ignore it and say it isn’t true because it’s not pre approved by the Cia.

First one you were deffinitly low on supplies a lot I’d say there’s a little bit of survival. There isn’t like hunger or thirst or sanity or anything but you certainly have to pick your fights at times.

Second one your a human tank so that ones a little less survival-y.

I’m saying there’s like 4 like minded people and we all already know each other. My mom’s retired so she has time to volunteer at the local food pantry. The vast majority of people who come in are chuds who gloat to the volunteers about all the great stuff trumps doing because they know my mom and the other women who volunteer are all liberals.

I’m saying your strategy of not being realistic about how much of an impedance the slack jawwed local contingent is gonna be is flawed.

They’re the one holding us back, as has been true for the entirety of this country, and saying it’s not their fault that they are like this is a fundamental failure in planning.

It sucks but we’ve got to accept “if we just help these people improve their lives they’ll come around” is literally not true. I live in upstate new york surrounded by people that would either freeze or starve to death in the winter if it weren’t for state run organizations. They also all have giant flags on their homes and vehicles making it very clear they want to get rid of those programs because they dont like all the lazy undeserving people taking advantage of the programs that keep them alive.

I really wish liberals woukd figure out that screeching “he can’t do that” and then not doing anything to stop him from doing that just makes them look either pathetic or like they were lying.

Either say “yea he’s doing it because the entire system is rotten to the core and he’ll keep doing it until we change the system” or SHUT THE FUCK UP

Currently the only question is are democrats this stupid or are they just controlled opposition. The controlled opposition literally seems more likely because it’s hard to fathom anybody being stupid enough to score this many own goals intentionally.

Kind of hard to build a community with the people with giant “fuck your feelings” flags on the side of their house.

That’s what I’m saying, maybe you can’t blame people for believing a lie but you can absolutely blame people for being literally antisocial and willfully ignorant.

I’m not going to waste my time and put my friends and family at risk by trying to build a community with people who would call them slurs. Especially because they are, fundamentally, antisocial assholes.

You try to build something with them and then as soon as that “thing” has any value they’ll attack you and try to take it from you. That’s their idea of a smart strong guy, being completely willing to fuck over and lie to other people. It’s why trumps president, and he’s still got north of 90% approval with people who voted for him, which makes up about 70% of my community.

As soon as you had more food then they deemed appropriate, which is going to be basically any amount, they’ll take that using the guns they’ve been hoarding in the hopes of having an excuse to shoot me. Kinda hard to focus on food and security with those people.

Frankly I’m getting pretty tired of the response to me getting upset at fascist to be “yea but you gotta understand they’ve enthusisatically brainwashed themselves because somebody told them it was a trans person’s fault their boss fired him and that seemed like a good point to them”

I explain all of that to those unfortunate manipulated victims of capitalism and they call me a slur and say I’m jealous.

You can absolutely blame the people at some point.

If I tell somebody “that guy’s an obvious con artist, don’t give him money he’s going to scam you. Here’s examples of him doing exactly that to the last 5 people. Heres my degree showing that i have specifically studied for years to be able to identify scams” And then that person calls me a cuck while handing his money to the scam artist, I’m going to blame the person I correctly and explicitly warned for not listening to me for the 500th time in a row.

And then the anger increases as every single one of the hundreds of people enthusiastically lining up to give the scam artist money has the same conversation with me.

And then a group of 50 of them get together and decide it’s my fault because they think I was being condescending as I explained exactly how they are fucking themselves over.

Gen z dudes are a bunch of Tate fan boys who think kanyes new song is hilarious.

The youngest generation is actively more conservative than the generation before for the first time since the boomers.

I gave up on America when Bush got a second term and overall that was the right call.

The fascists have been getting bolder and the “opposition” more feckless and confirmatory the entire time.

But we’re also not going to have like a sudden collapse th8ngs will just keep getting worse and worse and people quality of life will continue to decline and as it gets worse people will get more anti social, violent and willfully ignorant.

Rich people and right wingers will be able to murder you in the streets on your way to spend a weeks wages on a days worth of food.

He’s gonna be so pissed when somebody explains mercator projections to him, or more likely, gives up trying to explain it and just says “Greenland isn’t actually that big”
