  • This is the most rational take I’ve seen on the possibility of a general strike. I’ve seen the argument that people need to suck it up and just do it together, right next to the counterpoint that some people simply can’t. They, or perhaps their children or loved ones, could die, and that’s something you can’t just ASK of people (unless you’re a government, apparently). And if not enough people managed to participate in the strike then they would have died in vain. Two things can be true at the same time, though, and I think a general strike is still a good idea, there just needs to be a decently large group of people (who know what they’re doing) to give it a kickstart. I’m sure more people would join as such a movement gained publicity.




















  • Democrats tell you, there are no problems.

    Holy shit I actually hit my desk when I read this. I’ve been trying to put into words why “centrism” and “both sides” bullshit is just conservatism and why liberals stand for nothing. I have been trying for years now and then you come along and just: “Democrats tell you there are no problems” YES. That is what I’ve been trying to tell people for fucking years!! I’m not the problem for being concerned for the world, stop giving me that look when all I’m doing is pointing out that the problem exists and you should care about it as much as I do. Don’t tell me I live in a fake reality because the things I want done are somehow impossible when we know what many of the world’s issues are and how to solve them. It’s power structures controlled by the rich that stand between us and a better world, and it’s not my fault if you can’t realize that! Son of a bitch, I need to calm tf down.

    So thank you for that.
