I didn’t miss that subtlety. Thank you for mentioning that!

If I put it in a graphic, it must be true. Graphics can’t lie!

I was just wondering what the percentages were lately. Hot damn things are still going in the right direction!

God damn libs really only have like 6 aRgUmEnTs don’t they? It’s beyond conspiracy theory now. It’s straight up a flat earther mentality. They have their fingers in their ears yelling “TIENAMEN SQUARE TEINAMIN SQUARE I CANT HEAR YOU TIENAMEN SQUARE”.

How embarrassing.

Good on ya SFSU

This is basically the last argument I made to my family before we stopped talking about politics

They were like hey, you seem to be going down these propaganda rabbit holes. But here’s what I believe. And I’m like yeah, I know what you believe. I believed it for 35 fucking years too, I’m the one that did more research and changed my mind, You all don’t even know the definition of socialism, let alone communism!

At that point, I decided that, yeah, I’m talking to brick walls. I’m not going to do this anymore. They’ll have to research it themselves.

Yeah that’s where I’m at now, on both accounts. I started a segment on YouTube a month or so ago and could not get more than a couple minutes in. Too frustrating.

Oh man. In the not too distant past. About a year and a half now. I would say that, Yeah, that was one of my favorite shows and… Its very true. Watching that show give me a sense of superiority for sure.

In fact, it’s kind of funny. I think that show had a backlash effect on me. I’d watch this show every week expose some problem and then society would do fuck all to fix it. Long story short, I eventually realized that the problem was capitalism, obviously. Went on a journey to learn how to actually solve these problems.

Now I’m a tankie.

Thanks Mr. Oliver!

I’d laugh, but this was too real :-(

No way. This can’t be real. No one is dumb enough to think he invented electric cars.

I mean, people might be dumb enough to think his IQ is 175, and that he’s a self taught neuroscientist, blah blah. Those things are really hard to “disprove” (even if they are harder to prove)… But not EVs. Like, what?

Please tell me people aren’t that dumb. Oh god please tell me… Oh no, I think it’s real.

OMG googling for China green energy news is nearly impossible…

Anyway I read something recently that said that if China’s green advancements were ignored, the world would have gone backward in percentage of green energy production.

China is a big country, so anything it does make a huge difference. The fact of the matter is that when they build more green energy than many european nations entire energy output, we know for sure that whatever they do sets the stage for the world. Taking them out of the equation and seeing how bad the rest of the world is doing highlights how China is dragging the rest of the world kicking and screaming into the energy future.

On a related note, when trying to find this article you can’t help but run into “ChInA hAs gREen eNERgy buT AlSo hAs cOaL sO iT doEsnT CoUnt” nonesense.

Yeah, I like driving when it’s fun. Like by myself through the country roads when no one else is on the road haha.

Going down my local stroad just pisses me off haha. I’d sell my car and move to a city if I didn’t have kids (I can deal with public transit but it’s not good enough for kids in my area)

At this point in time I’m completely convinced that the Democrats in office love how bad the state of the country is because it means they get to push for teeny-tiny little baby steps to make it slightly less terrible whilehere, while everybody ignores the fact that genocide is happening under their watch, and World War 3 are around the corner.

It’s the exact same tactic the Republicans did. Throw a bunch of crazy shit out there so the media focuses entirely on that, including cultural issues, while secretly pushing a whole bunch of legislation towards the right without argument.

Only when the Democrats are doing stuff behind the scenes, it’s not pushing the country the left, It’s still pushing the country to the right, just not quite as fast.

allows states to enforce laws that replace faithless electors

Ah, yeah that’s a whole 'nuther problem. Comes after the initial problem of actually getting those 270 in their seats and to vote in unison.

all for the FBI to assassinate the candidate

Damn, that’s true. so many problems with that idea haha!

Yeah, it actually really confuses me that people say that your vote matters in the USA. Even if you’re fully bought into the system, D’s or R’s, you can’t fucking deny that the Electoral College is gonna do whatever it fucking wants. The electoral college mostly ignores what its people say ( Obviously, they mostly align, but some counties that flipped last election, they decided to ignore that, and some counties didn’t flip, and they decided to ignore that too). There were electoral college members that voted third party in Trump vs Clinton. Like what? Talk about a protest vote haha.

Hell, if American Communists could get their act together and just get as many people secretly into the Electoral College as possible, we could totally fucking run a coup in this place ( Okay, okay. Once you become a part of the system, you tend to have a hard time fighting it. So, honestly, that probably wouldn’t work).

Better as a capitalist meme:

Capitalist: are you a capitalist? Worker: Yes, and proud of it! Capitalist: good, pisses on the floor… Clean up my piss Worker: ewww no C: I’ll pay you a dollar W: no, I’m leaving C: points to guard at the door holding an AR you just gotta pay him and he’ll let you leave W: how much? C: A dollar W: What else can I do? C: nothing W: This is oppression C: No it isn’t, you have the “freedom” not to clean up my piss and instead just die of starvation in this room W: technically you’re correct so I have no argument against you, this is the best system ever developed by humans

…

Okay I gotta workshop it a bit I think it could be paired down.

I can’t tell if it’s just a click-baity image, or a real claim. But I don’t care to watch the video to find it out lol.

Always upvote my boy Ben!

Holy shit this goes hard. Such a great use of the meme!

Yeah, many stores have a bathroom. The whole thing is that you’re supposed to buy something in order to use it. How is this any better than that?

Ah yes, I’ve solved the problem of you paying a store to use their bathroom by you paying me to use my bathroom. Oh, and in exchange, you don’t get anything else, just the bathroom usage, unlike the store where you at least get a drink or something. It makes perfect business sense, for me.
