Political Memes

But...they said the last breath was the most important, and I'm sitting here alive with nothing to show for it!

The last important one was in 1980. The people celebrated their own destruction as they counted the days when they would be the millionaires inflicting themselves on society.

Fucking suckers.

Big capital owns both parties now, the literal 5ish spoilers between both chambers that the neoliberals hate more than their opposition party can't do a thing in a sea of hundreds of well bribed, oh I'm sorry "donated," sycophants. There's no escape under the current framework.

Worse, we've used our massive hard and soft geopolitical power since then to make the rest of the world as exploitative, sociopathic, and greedy as us, and we've been wildly successful at it.

They don't entirely, though. In fact, much of what the SCOTUS has struck down has been them saying Congress needs to do their job and write laws to do what they want the laws to do, versus having the SCOTUS legislate from the bench. Don't get me wrong, this SCOTUS is fucking awful, but there's some slight truth to some of what they've said on some of their rulings. For example, Roe v Wade could've easily become a national law, but Congress won't do it.

Senate was under republican control, Obama wasn't getting any justices confirmed.

The party refused to pressure Breyer & RBG to step down. Obama refused to play hardball with Garland.

Biden negotiated with himself and cut debt forgiveness to 10K. Then the SC strikes it down ~~, and he throws his hands up and walks away~~. I'm old enough to remember when Trump's obviously unconstitutional muslim ban got banned and he rewrote it and tried again until it stuck. It didn't fully take until the third try. Then he expanded it twice.

[Edit: I looked it up and he did give it another go, my b]

Including a bunch here who have also seemingly deleted months worth of their comments as cover.

Funny that so many centrists have a strategy that boils down down to, "ignore leftists and then complain when they don't vote for us."

There does seem to be a disparity between what biden can do and trump can do though doesnt there.

Every single non-voter in the country willingly allowed the Republicans to fuck everyone over.

Edit: Going back decades, obviously. The latest election has nothing to do with the current SCOTUS. And sure, it's not the American non-voters' fault they're brain dead consumers with no will of their own. It's all very sad, blah blah blah.

The republicans I suppose. If I recall correctly they were against Obama appointing a judge before the end of his term for some reason while very supportive of Trump appointing judges before his term ended

When democrats lose: “We could’ve had a utopia if you had simply voted for us!”

"We could have averted fascism" is "utopia" now?

Funny, but considering that you repeatedly insisted that you didn't give a fuck how many Americans and Palestinians have to die to satisfy your urge for political purity in the run-up to the election, unsurprising.

When democrats win: ~~crickets~~ "We didn't win enough so I'm afraid our hands are tied."

I always took crickets coming out of the political arena to be a positive. I want my politicians to shut the fuck up and govern, thank you very much.

The for profit media and captured education system has pitted non wealthy Americans against each other irreparably by design.

As they rage over how to address the social issue symptoms of our crony market capitalist economy, the one truly unapproachable topic is remaking our economy to reward honest labor over increasingly abstract (credit default swaps, stock shorts, etc) speculative, insider information laden GAMBLING, or rebuilding a safetynet for our fellow neighbors that struggle, and that necrotic economy we the people have been largely deluded into not wanting to address causes or exacerbates all the problems we do get a vote on to provide the illusion of choice.

Example: abortion is usually an economic decision, and rightly so. If the owner's greed hadn't required 2 full time incomes to run most households, and the minimum wage were a living wage, there would be less abortion and birth rates would go up, no threats or bans required. Worker productivity skyrocketed for decades, but that wasn't enough, everyone get into the factories and cubicles and make the masters moooooaaaaaaar!!!!

To thunderous applause as the tens of millions of deluded economic victims are told GDP is life, and life is GDP, and if they're struggling, it's the powerless homeless people outside dying faults, lowering property values that stopped them from getting a raise. Bullshit.

The United States isn't a society, it is a death cult of greed/avarice enablers, and it's easy to see if you recognize the deification of our supposed "free market" they shove down your throats as the self-serving lie that it is.

Freedom without responsibility is a destructive force. The owners feel no responsibility towards the nations they exploit, including ours.

You mean Biden should have packed the court?
