What followed those things was a brutal campaign against communism that killed millions. 80 years of propaganda is hard to shake.

Interesting how the epstien files have been locked away all this time, and we need a majority vote in congress to release them.

Yet ... our data is CONSTANTLY being stolen, sold, and "leaked" for profit with virtually no recourse except going off the grid.

As always they can stop if it they cared

Every single voting cycle is a "constitutional crisis". Ever since I started voting 25+ years ago. This is the game they play to force us to vote for the "lesser evil" as the Overton window continues to shift to the right

We cant afford to continue to let capitalism hurl us towards endless crisises

red scare Chile vibes

"I don't see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves"

β€œWe live in a democracy” but the majority of Americans want Congress to stop funding Israeli mass murder and they don’t.

And then some lib or chud says β€œwe live in a democracy” again.

No we don’t.

Been thinking about this lately. Where did I learn about...

Imperialism & anti-war? Punk.
Police brutality? Punk.
Class solidarity? Punk.
Anti-consumerism? Punk.
Gender equality? Punk.
Animal rights? Punk.
Bad landlords? Punk.
Unions? Punk.
Veganism? Punk.

The time is ripe for a punk renaissance

Every year seems to always be "the most important election ever in history", "the fate of democracy is in existential crisis"

and yet every year the Overton window shifts more and more right as Dems and the ratchet effect direct us straight towards fascism.
