The ‘victim card’ is the conservative ‘race card’.
Except only one of those is real, while the other is made up by those trying to use the first…
Lmfao, anyone still putting their hopes of abolishing capitalism in electoral politics (or the governments that result, and their actions), at the very least, hasn’t been paying any attention, and has very little to no understanding of how the systems at play work and interact.
Playing by their rules within their game (this includes not only electoral politics, but also shit like using housing as a commodity, however supposedly noble the intent) is never going to set anyone free from it.
Count me in, Sabo-Tabby!
Can we please let the ableist wojaks die already?? 🙄🙄
I, completely missing the title, thought it was V from V for Vendetta, but I guess I’m wrong lol (that clip is the end of the movie, so spoiler alert, though it’s basically what the meme describes)
Before digital computers existed, humans were the computers! (first referenced as an occupation in 1613)
Skills are transferable, though there definitely are many cases where people aren’t able to access the tools and education they might need to make the most of their talents because of lack of privilege and systemic oppression (which basically means facing more obstacles to gain access to the same tools and education as the most privileged get handed to them).
So when you were born definitely matters, but so does where, to who, what gender you were assigned at birth, how abled or disabled you are, and so on and so on…
You really had to go and ruin it by praising Stalin right there at the end, didn’t you… 🤦♀️
(to be clear - eat the fucking rich, but that’s not what gulags are for)
Yes, that’s why I said
the different local groups in each region, all over the globe
They didn’t just create the borders, but also actively pitted the different local groups in each region, all over the globe, against each other to keep them from joining forces against the colonisers and imperialists, so very deliberate war mongering.
Similar tactics are used today in the form of “culture wars” and institutional and systemic bigotry - we (the working class, the majority of the population) are divided and pitted against each other by those who want to keep us from joining forces and turning on them.
912·10 months agoLol, mansplain harder! I’m sure it had nothing to do with wanting to know when their next period was due, to, you know, know when their next period was due, and be prepared for that, without it having anything to do with a man… 🙄🤦♀️😂
“Look at how well the democrats allow the capitalists to treat me as they ensure they can continue to exploit my labour for their own profit uninterrupted!!11”
(seriously - start by looking at those companies profit margins for a tip of the iceberg idea of just how much they are making off of your labour before you do a happy dance over a couple of dollars more they’re willing to throw your way to keep you from demanding actual freedom)
But yeah, keep harping on about how represented you are in the sham they call electoral politics…
puts fingers in ears and starts screaming “lalalala…”
Lmfao, no you -

Lmmfao, so you’re against minimum wage claiming it’s a non-solution (and also that some workers must gain further education to even “deserve” it) while advocating UBI, which is a solution on the exact same level as minimum wage is - the level that still allows capitalists to exploit the labour of others for profit (except with UBI, it is the government compensating them from the tax pot, either way, it’s working people paying the highest price - freedom).
Never mind that the meme doesn’t offer it up as a solution to anything, but more of a bare minimum that neither democrats nor republicans will give, because, and this is the point the meme is actually making which seems to have gone completely over your head - both democrats and republicans work for capitalism, not you.
Truth is, you’re just here to flex your “economist” muscles, but instead you’re just spewing clueless yet confident incorrectness all over the place… 😂
Ah, got it, so all our problems are the fault of those pesky workers wanting to afford to survive, and not those who refuse to function unless they’re exploiting others…
Makes perfect sense, “economist”… 🙄😂
If you think capitalism didn’t create and still heavily relies on racism, sexism, ableism, cisheteronormativity and so on (and no, comparing real life oppressed groups to fictional characters doesn’t help) to literally exist, you’ve not been paying any attention.
Fighting only a class war still leaves an imperialist white supremacist cisheteronormative ableist theistic patriarchy.
Intersectionality is the only way everyone gets justice and equity.
Can you not make that point without the ableism?
