I man, yeah, I was just ribbing the person who made the post that was a knockoff of another post, and they took it as some good fun.

Perfect 5/7 edit

Oh you definitely were xD figured you’d appreciate some ribbing back

Yeah no shit, next headline will be “water confirmed to be wet” and then elaborate on how that means it’s a liquid to pedants.

Ok look, you got a good heart and you know that dairy isn’t good for the environment or cows and so on. Cool.

But perfect is the enemy of action. You know how there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism? So there’s always going to be some way to nitpick about any action. For example, that tomato shake was made with migrant or prisoner or slave labor and mass farming is also terrible for the environment and water consumption.

One of the biggest strategic flaws we have on the left is that we care a lot about all sorts of stuff and want to do right by the world, which leads us to sometimes criticizing our own methods and people over what could be better and what is worse, and we lose sight of the bigger picture. Sometimes this is from genuinely wanting things to be better and sometimes it’s from trying to show how much better and more woke we are. It almost always comes off as flexing, a holier-than-thou attitude.

Functionally it causes division and inaction.

Sure, sometimes we need to adjust a strategy and try to make things better, but we need to look at the bigger picture and not get lost in the weeds.

An imperfect ally is still an ally and should be accepted, as it’s better than no ally. An imperfect tactic should be accepted, because that’s better than inaction.

So if you want to throw your tomato drink at someone go for it, but don’t discourage people from actively fighting Nazis, ok? Maybe next time say “I don’t like using milk I’m going for v8”, it’s more proactive and less critical.

because they work

Time to make more sandwiches and milkshakes

A bigger check because you’re not paying a company to do something you can do for free.

Plus with the way things are going it’ll be delayed anyway

You’re trying to divert attention away from the files and Trump. If you cared about the energy you’d want them released anyway, and you’d know that if it was something bad for Biden you’d want it out now. The only point to trying to shift blame to the ex president is because you’re a fan of the current one.

We should file all of our taxes ourselves through the paper option. No digital taxes this year. It’s not that hard if all you have is a W2, it takes longer but it also will mean you file for free and more importantly takes the government longer to process it. You can get the papers for free from the library.

Throw dirt into the gears.

Dang it, a lot of our military is illiterate peasant farmers already…

Yeah, remembering stuff like Kent State and all, I don’t bank in it.

… Why sheogorath? I know his lyrics are fire but he’s got nothing to do with the text here

The Right doesn’t care about facts. They believe something, which in their heads is immutable, something like “women are weaker than men”, and any facts or statistics that exist either validate this truth, or, to them, are false. Any lie that’s said is fine, because it’s in service to this immutable “truth”, because they are right and facts don’t matter in comparison to the “truth” so it’s pretty irrelevant as long as you’re fighting for the “truth”.

This is why arguing with these people with facts and statistics doesn’t work, because they can lie and dismiss whatever they want and you have to research. It can help the people on the sidelines sometimes, but that’s about it.

Like they don’t have brick oven pizzas and craft breweries in the South.

I think they forgot to add the option of “growing a spine” to the poll because that would be #1

I didn’t get it till someone else commented about it either.

To spell it out for y’all, it’s a joke number.

86 means to stop, get rid of, or kill.

47 is the trump president number.
