I never hear people on the right say oh people will never vote for this or that or oh the system is too fucked up it’ll never happen; they see what they want and say ok let’s go make it happen. 1/3

A problem on the left is all the social approval given to cynicism & despair. I understand why people are depressed & angry about the oligarchy, but every time we talk about it like it’s an insurmountable problem we give it power. That’s exactly what they want you to think. 2/3

The gun issue is a perfect example. Like healthcare & climate change it’s an example of corporate power tyrannizing us yes. But negativity about our prospects is not the answer. If enough of us say we’re going to change things and we’re not going to stop until we do, we will. 3/3

Biden needs to sign an executive order making it illegal to buy a gun over the counter without a background check.

It seems like there is no ‘political will’ to change or help anyone. The left make excuses and blame the right. The right make excuses and blame the left.

The root cause of all our problems is capitalism. People instinctually know that nothing will change as long as capitalism exists. Telling people we can change things through “love” without advocating for the abolition of capitalism comes across as naive and achieves nothing

Why must you always be so divisive???? “ Corporate power tyrannizing us” Do any corporations do anything good? Why are you so prejudiced and bigoted towards every single corporation??? Why paint them all with the same brush? Make love, not war!

If you want to overturn the 2nd amendment of the constitution, you’ll need a heck of a lot more votes. You have the slimmest of majorities now, and are about to get WALLOPED in the midterms!

💯 So frustrating when people naysay bf an election. Saying not to get hopes up on X candidate or don't send💰 bc we'll never unseat incumbent. That negativity breeds; voters who were excited may instead stay home if they feel there's no hope. Negativity is so counterproductive.

Channel that energy into telling people to give up on this god-forsaken D party and get them to collectively #demexit and vote for a SPECIFIC 3rd party. If the D's truly don't care about losing and let lefties walk away w/o any self-reflection, then they are complicit with R's.

Maybe quit expending energy on demonizing those you disagree with, it’s exhausting to you….and them.

People are simply tired of being lied to by the Democrats. Even Democrats are tiring. They have no plans or solutions... other than controlling ppl and outcomes through nefarious and criminal means. Period. They simply cannot be trusted and ppl are waking up to this reality.
