NOOOO HE WAS WORKING TIRELESSLY AROUND THE CLOCK EVEN THO HE WAS LITERALLY NEVER NOT HALF ASLEEP IF NOT OUTRIGHT SNOOZING ANY TIME HE WAS SEEN IN PUBLIC
Can’t work tirelessly if you’re always tired
Weird , we said Biden was senile, we were told he wasn’t. He was.
We said that if they were actually applying pressure to Israel than a ceasefire would be reached. They weren’t even applying pressure.
Sucks to be correct.
But seriously does it ever pay off. 20 years of being correct about everything from climate change to rising fascim to the pandemic to the complete failure of the democratic party is getting tiresome.
Is there ever any benefit to correctly predicting all the ways liberals will fuck up?
It would be nice if they would eventually at least stop condescendingly saying we don’t know how anything works after decades of accurately predicting every single one of their failures.
It seems to be human nature to be reactive once the bad thing has already happened. That way you can do damage control that doesn’t quite meet the moment and it still looks like you’re doing something.
But to answer your questions, no. There is no benefit to being on the right side of history. It seems to take at least 50 years for the right side of history to gain a majority, and by then untold suffering has already occured.
I’m strongly considering checking out of politics and culture altogether again, but I cant find something to replace my idle time when I’m on break at work or something. What am I supposed to do? Stare off into space? Talk to my idiot co workers about the weather for the millionth time? I can’t read a book unless it’s quiet, so that’s mostly out. And I’m damn sure not going to start watching slop videos. Even hexbear is a source of anxiety on a good day, and completely boring and producing it’s own slop (looking at you “beanis”) on a bad day
a good day on hexbear is usually a lot better than that for me. sometimes I get a belly laugh along with the anxiety
Maybe I’m just depressed right now but I’d say I get one belly laugh a week here. Although my communist sense of humor is miles higher than the average liberal user of hexbear ;-)

payout from the betting sites?
They’ve got it fogged so you’ve gotta be right about 4 unlikely things happening simultaneously to get any payout.
And the stock market is giving a pretty comprehensive lesson of the quote "the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.
We need to reach the revolutionary classes in our societies with this correctness and connect it to our normative claims and strategies. How we do that? Idk we’re still working on it. But being constantly right would be great if the rest of the strategy was worked out…
I’m from rural upstate new york I’m surrounded by the most coddled republicans maybe anywhere on earth.
They get a robust social safety nest funded by the city. They have all their medical expenses covered get decent unemployment for the half the year they don’t work and constantly say we should split into 2 states, the city and everybody else.
When I point out we’d immediately be a landlocked failing state with zero income they call you slurs.
I’ve been called an n word lover for looking unimpressed at the punchline of a joke that was just a slur.
If you point out that 6 months ago you told them this would be the exact outcomes of their proposed solutions which were implemented exactly like they wanted them to be, they call you a slur.
Idk where this revolutionary potential I keep hearing about is, but if you ever bring it up around me the chuds will gleefully murder you in order to preserve the status quo while flying a “don’t tread on me” and a “fuck yourself feelings” flag
in the migrant workers and renters
Well there’s 2 options to accept here if we accept that society will change at some point revolutionarily: 1. (Less likely) We need to change our strategy to reach those people because they are revolutionary. That’s not someone’s fault or something that anyone deserves to have to deal with, but if we want to progress, we have to find some way to connect. Or 2. (More likely) Those people aren’t the revolutionary class, and my word “societies” needs to be interpreted more broadly to encompass whoever has the potential to revolutionarily change your society. These people may be physically far away, but we should be using our correct analysis to undergird the strategies we build with them.
I’m not dismissing the racism, sexism, abelism, or any of that, to be clear. I doubt the people expressing that in the 1st world are really part of any revolutionary potential. Or at least won’t be until some more major changes happen.
Yea your last point is well made.
I really feel like any effort to convince somebody who thinks Trump is doing a great job is better spent building larger networks.
As things continue to get worse I expect they’ll go directly from saying things are good up to a point they’re snapped out of it, at which point they’ll just start murdering their neighbors for frozen meals and toilet paper.
But AOC said…
Is this an article or a collection of tweets?
you should think that this would garner more attention; but considering that democrats insisted that the harris would be better than trump, it makes sense.
Hey give the dems credit it’s not like there were any warning signs like a literally uncontested primary resulting in double digit percentaged of people voting for “please god anybody but these sacks of shit”
How could they have known that “See that rotting corpse over there, what he said” wasn’t a winning strategy.
