  • He doesnt actually know how to write songs, but in his head he “knows” hes the main character, so he thinks hes gonna get a group of musicians together, start playing some shitty chord, and everything will just fall into place and the bassist and drummer will stsrt playing along with some brilliant ideas of their own that he can take all the credit for because he’s the frontman and he started the band.



  • The tv series ‘for all mankind’ started out so interesting with such a good premise, what if the russians landed on the moon first, and what if they landed a woman on the moon first, and then just spirals into NASA bullshit propaganda apologia. It was so dusappointing. Just a tangent but its what your comment brought to mind.




  • The stupidity of the people responding as if this ess a real comment is only matched by the stupidity of the comment itself. I understand its supposed to be satire but no marxist wanrs the Democratic party to move left. They would recognize that the entire two party system is a circus organized by capital to keep people from organizing and challenging power systems in meaningful ways. After all theres no real need for revolution when your entire social responsibility boils down to writing a name on a piece of paper and then making shitty internet comments about it for the next four years right?





  • No, probably not unfortunately. But if you had all listened to the people sounding the alarm about the democrats years ago that might have worked. If you all hadnt spend so much energy attacking undecided and pro palestine voters a year before the election even happened, and instead directed some of that energy into pressuring the democratic party, whoch was what the whole undecided movement was about, then maybe the democrats would have changed direction and not shifted so much further right and lost the election because of it. Your constant apologetics for terrible party leadership is causing you to lose any small influence you may have had. But also yes, its probably worth getting a 3rd party going at this point even if they aren’t immediately viable, because you’ll never see meaningful change otherwise.








  • Well thats incredibly reductive and disingenuous. I never said the people weren’t to blame, but theres a whole lot of really annoying people running around acting like the whole election is the fault of uncommited/palestine protest voters, and the democrats are blameless and ran a perfect campaign. Out of those two groups, there’s only one whose actions actually could have altered the outcome of the election when you take it down to the numbers, and thats the democratic party. Setting aside the fact rhat they implicitly have blame because its their only job to convince people to vote for them, they still wouldn’t have won even if every single protest voter had voted democrat. But even if that werent the case, the career politicians bear vastly more responsibility for the outcome of elections than any individual person.
