Too young to run for anything, sadly

I don’t think it’s naïve to think that doing anything I can to make change is better than doing nothing and complaining that I’ll never make a change

I agree that it seems hopeless. I’m surrounded by people all day spouting propaganda nonsense talking points with no real attention given to conversations I have with them.

But nothing will ever change if everyone gives up. I think there is hope.

Politicians not entirely corrupted by donors are at least mainstream enough to be in the public eye these days, unlike a few years ago. Local exposure to actual reason may be the little push some of these people need to start considering the other side.

Does seem that way sometimes. Sadly it may be the only way to peacefully make meaningful change in this awful system…

Better to try to make change happen than give up I guess

Didn’t even know that was the guy in the meme. Not using this format anymore thanks

Very valid. Still I think you’d be surprised how many of those people are uninformed and/or ignorant enough to be swayed by good enough talking points.

Trump won by tricking them that he was for their best interests. It can’t be so hard to win while actually being for their best interests and not for wealthy donors.

They punched above their weight now the hit dog is hollering

I fear this may not be true, Israel’s military is quite robust at the moment compared to Iran’s not even considering the inevitable western support

I fear it means nothing

More effective to call someone a useless fuck than a useless fat fuck. Don’t care if you’re making fun of a Nazi, weightshaming is not effective, funny, or useful and just makes other people you weren’t meaning to hurt feel bad

i’m not downvoting because i’m a tankie, but because misrepresenting them as right wing helps literally nobody
