Evidence?

Music production. It would have taken years after finishing recording school to even begin to break even, let alone make minimum wage, let alone make a living wage. All the entry-level gigs were one-time unpaid things.

I haven’t fully given up on music production forever because I’m too fucking stubborn, but I’m not making it my full-time job.

Cry, poop, or do other newborn stuff. But what else do babies actually do? 😆

You can’t judge these people ideologically based on their public statements, political structures that back candidates are the only thing they are accountable to

You’re 100% right but it’s just… it’s hard sometimes not to try to find patterns in the noise. But it is just that…noise.

Eeeewww the lib-ification is beginning 🤮. This is why I don’t fuck with reformism 🤮🤮🤮

Wait is this a bit? Sorry, I’m not good with irony.

Liz Warren is a shitlib lol. Terrible, not radical in the slightest, saps radical energy and time and redirects it back into the system. So far Mamdani’s been way cooler.

Also I’m an anarchist-communist. I absolutely do not oppose Mamdani being radical. Actually, I consider him to be a moderate. Hell I would be literally thrilled if he went rogue. Going rogue against the terrorist American State should be considered the greatest service one could ever do for humanity.

I pray to fucking God he’s even a fraction as radical as he says he’ll be. Democratic socialism is like the bare fucking minimum.

I mean did you learn anything?

Hope that people will smash the chains that bind them… and undying hatred for the rich, the cops, the politicians, and the rest of the monsters when that hope disappears.

A Harris presidency wouldn’t be threatening nuclear action.

Sure they would. They’d just keep it out of the public eye. Otherwise, we’d dismantle all our nukes. Keeping them is a threat enough.

The entire system needs tossed. And if that’s what you mean then say that.

I did, and I say that all the time. I’m openly an anarchist 🏴🏴🏴.

All this “Harris is the same” just promotes apathy at best, and derision between the left and liberals at worst at a time where unity is needed and doesn’t even hint at “the system is broken”.

Yes you absolutely should be apathetic to the circus of two-party politics. Of course we shouldn’t be apathetic to the brutal realities of capitalism, but both parties already are, and following the “circus” at all directs attention away from the reality of capitalism because that’s what it’s designed to do.

And do not get me started on liberals and their derision. It literally does not matter how nice and flowery leftists make our ideas, liberals will always shit on them and side with the fash until they stop being liberals, because liberals are creatures of the right. So at some point, we gotta put our feet down and say “This is what we stand for, and if you’re against that, you’re against us.” I’m willing to make “supporting one of the genocidaires is bad and should not be done” one of those things.

We need to get this snowflake narcissistic dumbass out of abolish the commander in chief role.

Then insert your own politician. Same analysis applies. The issue is the existence of the system, not the identity of the figurehead running it.

There is no justification for genocide, including genocide itself.

They are saying because Kamala did not want mass ICE deportations that we wouldn’t be having mass ICE deportations in LA.

Are they saying that somewhere else? Because I didn’t see that anywhere in the text of either of the two comments in the chain.

More accurately though: Kamala does not brashly call for mass ICE deportations like Trump does because she needs to maintain an image of being an opposition. And the point of maintaining this veneer of being an opposition party is to provide a pressure valve. The goal is to manufacture consent, to pacify liberals who might otherwise figure out that the system does nothing for them and become leftists, to put a “woke” face on the evil agenda of capitalism so liberals can smugly claim to be the only people fighting for social justice and simultaneously block out any radical voices.

That doesn’t mean she, and the Biden admin that she promised to be an extension of, wouldn’t be having mass ICE deportations all over the country. It only means that liberals would be cool with it like they were with ICE deportations under the Biden and Obama administrations. Because liberals, by and large, like the violence. The ones who figure out that they don’t become leftists.

Even if you believe Kamala and Trump share the beliefs/end goals/policies whatever, there is at least one distinction and that is she did not want mass ICE immigration. Therefore, she is LESS harmful.

Honestly, the only material difference between the two is what they say in public. It’s only an indicator at best of the trajectory of the system.

Like imagine if your car is smoking in the front, and the mechanic is like “The transmission is fucked, the engine is on fire, the battery also exploded, and I’m not going to do anything about it”, but then you take the car to another mechanic and they’re like “The transmission is fucked, the engine is on fire, the battery also exploded, and I’m not going to do anything about it, but I’m willing to charge you $69 to turn off the Check Engine light.” And hundreds of people in the internet are like “Bro you gotta fix the check engine light or your car will never work ever again bro please just go to the other mechanic and pay $69 and if you want to get a bike instead you secretly want your car to be on fire bro”.

In a car, the Check Engine light is an indicator that something is wrong, just like in the US, the public rhetoric of the current administration is an indicator of the trajectory the system is on.

I’m not wasting my time to prop up liberal Democrat politicians who won’t even pretend to attempt to change a goddamn thing. We know the system is working exactly as intended. It’s oppressing the exact people it’s supposed to oppress. And the Democrats aren’t even pretending to care about the things they campaigned on stopping in the last election cycle. They’re the baddies too, and I’m tired of pretending they’re not.

if she was prez I don’t think we’d have the national guard tear gassing protesters in LA right now

What are you smoking and can I get some?

Nothing lol.

"These antisemitic flotilla activists closed their eyes to the truth and once again proved they prefer the murderers over the victims,” Katz said. “They continue to ignore the atrocities committed by Hamas against Jewish and Israeli women, the elderly, and children.”

Not gonna believe this hasbara rag unless they show unedited video of the flotilla participants not watching the tapes. And likewise for everything else in the article. 💩

But then you get to enjoy it 😆
