  • I get so frustrated, and I’m sure others too, that I’ve been saying this for the entirety of the Biden presidency. Now that it’s 10 minutes to midnight everyone decides to talk about it. My voice has been ignored, I’ve been shutdown and basically forced out of any discussion when I brought this shit up.

    The problem isn’t that the media changed. The problem isn’t that the DNC changed. The problem isn’t progressives changed. The problem is the voting public decided just now to actually show up. Democracy is dying not because the Republicans are political juggernauts it’s because Americans can’t get it up unless it’s fucking a giant production.

    So you mother fuckers better do everything you fucking can to keep Trump out because I cant fucking even with you guys anymore.



  • Ok, cash out. Everyone empty the grocery stores with what ever cash you can then hold up in your houses making sure to share resources. Cut the power if your not at risk. Stop consuming. We are gears that keep the economy strong. They can break one of us but if we all stop turning they’re the ones who break down.

    This is the bar. After that comes the national guard. They will attempt to burn down something as an example but they can’t burn us all (we hope).

    Sound impossible? Well it’s not. It only sounds impossible.

    When they go to restock the grocery stores raid the trucks. When you get hungry raid the warehouses.

    Take your phone and throw it in the street.

    You are perfectly capable of living with only your local community to support you.

    Host movie nights using a generator. Put on plays. Take to the streets and use your only voice.

    It’s only a dream. Soon you will wake to the bliss of nothingness or surrounded by your friends stronger then ever before.

    The boogeymen we let haunt our nightmares can all be extinguished. The insufferable tedium of daily life can be the tedium of daily self exploration. We can rewrite the rules so that the fucking pothole that takes out 10 cars a day for the last 30 years can be filled in.

    If we only could.




  • I asssume both of us realize ‘vote blue no matter who’ won’t be enough. The DNC doesn’t exist as a bulwark against fascism. It’s only function is to operate as a hand of corporate interest. Currently the DNC is used as a way to corner us to the edge of a cliff so they can clip off the weak ones then drive the rest off the ledge.

    If there was a way out, right now, it would be straight through. Except corpo rightly expect that you will cling to your way of life until the very end. Maybe if, when we were younger, they told us, “Some day you will have to make a choice. Chose to cling to your material possessions or to cling to each other. One will directly effect the other. Prepare yourself everyday until that point.”

    Even then, we know now 30% for sure aren’t giving up their “stuff” no matter what. The rest. We will see I suppose.














  • I think democrats, today, do try to govern. Their attempts often feel like they are just going through the motions. It must be hard trying to do your job when you see everything crumbling around you and you have a reality TV show host threatening to tear down everything you’re working on.

    If Biden, today, decided he wanted to extra judiciously “save democracy” the democrats would terminate any moral high ground they ever claimed to have. They would see revolt from outside and from within. Their only choice would to be bring everyone to their heel.

    We know there is no such thing as a benevolent king. If I had to choose between DNC or GOP dictatorship I’d prob go DNC. Except I’ve watched the DNC pretend their morals are superior. I watch it as they crush us all for the sake of decorum. To the DNC we are just a wall dressing while they enjoy all the privilege power affords them. Given absolute power, they abandon trying to do the right thing and dictate to us how capitalism is the only way.
