    Always happens in your dreams, lemmy, while your biggest political activism is “trump bad” memes.

    In reality, your beloved democratic party are just a different flavor of a corporate bitch.

    You need to work hard on starting grass-root movements all across the country to facilitate proper democracy and eventually allow for a civilized political discourse at the parliamentary level where the whole spectrum of opinions is presented representatively.

    But, no, ofc “puuuurge elon tomorrow!”. And then back to watching YouTube on your couch.

      Wasn’t the whole moral of The Purge that rich people are insulated from the consequences of their shitty policy. And the only real defense against stocastic violence is community with your fellow man and trust in one another?

      “Purge Elon!” is a fiction because Elon is at the center of an enormous, slavishly loyal cult. Meanwhile, folks on Lemmy would slit each others’ throats over a bad meme. There’s not going to be a line, because everyone in it would be stabbing one another.

      Your beloved democratic party

      I was under the impression that the democrats were pretty much universally hated here and the question was wether or not to hold our collective noses and still vote for them in face of a greater evil or not.
