  • That is absolutely NOT what progress means, you fucking dipshit.

    prog·ress noun /ˈpräɡrəs/

    forward or onward movement toward a destination.
    "the darkness did not stop my progress"
    

    Moving slightly slower on enshittofication than the other guys does not meet that definition.

    Improvement, actual improvement, is what is required by progress.

    I’m not asking for everything to instantly be better. I’m demanding that things stop slowly getting worse.


  • Debt forgiveness is a decent step… Again unless educating your populace is as high a priority as it should be, in which case higher education would be freely available to any who wanted it. That’s not a moving goalpost, that’s simply how it always should have been.

    Under that, there simply is no student debt. Also, worth noting that debt forgiveness doesn’t actually fix the problem, it just gets people to shut up and go away, so yes I am still screaming for good and free public education for the public good.


  • I like how the fact that “this has happened before” is somehow a valid excuse for it to happen now. Dismiss me if you like but you still aren’t offering any actual rebuttal.

    Since the 80s, and Reagan bot major parties have facilitated the transfer of wealth away from the middle class and to the rich specifically.

    I don’t need to call that out because it’s been there for everyone to see for 40 fucking years. What the actual fuck are you on about.


  • When choice 1 is kill me slowly (maybe suggest slowing down oil emissions but not actually enforce it), and choice 2 is kill me quickly (lets sell Alaska to Exxon), what is the correct choice?

    I would honestly prefer choice 3 which is stop fucking trying to kill me.

    Should I commend the D team for not being quite as bad as R? Jesus man, I just want to have options that aren’t two different versions of wrong.

    Seriously, how do you not understand that this is an ENGINEERED false dichotomy?

    Additionally, everyone is coming at me going “the liberal party is progressiveby definition” and yet no one gives any examples of ACTUAL progress o. The D platform that ever a tualky gets acted upon. So far I’m the only person here who’s even. Rought up the ACA, and I do grant that it is mild progress, for the US, not for anywhere else in the developed world.
