Reform is a tool deployed by the oligarchy to stay in power. It stops progress and results in incremental fascism disguised as a lesser evil. Reform gives the illusion that voters have a part in deciding political outcomes despite several studies showing voters have zero influence in politicians and their policies.

You are confusing MLs with anarchists. MLs always think of the strategic importance of elections and choosing the lesser of evils.
That is absolutely not descriptive of the general comments and sentiment upvoted in the ML instance.
What a stupid take.
If a bar has Nazis, it’s a Nazi bar. If the Dems are collaborating with Nazis, as this latest move certainly makes it seem, then they are also Nazis.
Even between Nazis there are levels. You wouldn’t put Hitler and some german citizen that voted for him at the same level, both suck but are not the same.
Democrats have definitely shown to not be as bad as Republicans. The system is broken but you can choose to say “It’s all the same, so I won’t do shit” or you can choose to acknowledge that even within this shitty system, there are better and worse options.
They might not be on the same level but I still wouldn’t vote for someone who supported Hitler. This lesser-evilism is literally how Hitler came to power in the first place, the social democrats supported Hindenburg for president as a lesser evil to stop Hitler and then Hindenburg just appointed Hitler as chancellor anyway.
I’m not saying to vote for the next Democrat puppet. I’m saying that pretending that democrats are the same or worse than republicans is a ridiculous claim. I’m all for something sane that breaks us out of this shit.
“Both sides are the same but the dems are worse” - said by nobody who is paying attention. There is a reason ‘both sides’ is exclusively weaponized towards one party and not the other.
this meme doesn’t say they are worse
Yes it does. “They are both terrible in every way, but the dems are also dishonest gaslighters.”
you are deciding that is worse. the meme does not make that value judgement.

This guy wants you to throw your vote away.
Any vote in the oligarchy is a vote thrown away.
Any “no vote” is a vote for “any oligarch will do”.
If recent history is any indicator of how much Democrats are willing to fight for what’s right, I have better things to do with my fucking time than vote. I’m done with them.
If slightly less but still very much recent history is any indicator, that attitude is exactly what got us into this shit in the first place. One group isn’t doing what’s right, so let’s just hand victory to the group that pledges to do as much evil as they think they can get away with. Too many people with better things to do with their fucking time than keep a felon pedophile rapist wannabe-Mussolini conman out of office, I guess. Glad you got all the better things done though, with your fucking time.
Democrats got us into the mess we are in
Right, because the Republicans control the presidency, the house, the Senate, and inexplicably the supreme court, obviously it’s those darn stinking Democrats who did all this. Don’t get me wrong, I am livid at their inaction, but to throw your hands up and say “whelp, better just hand the Republicans the key to the castle” is at best defeatist and at worst actively destroying this country.
at worst actively destroying this country.
That’s the best thing that can happen for the rest of the world, constantly bullied and terrorised by the bipartisan regime.
But americans didn’t give a fuck about that. Now they cry bcs they got a taste of their own medicine.
Well guess what, we don’t give a fuck about you either, on the contrary.
Let Trump do his worst and you can all rot in hell where you belong.
The sooner the better.Ah, so you’re going mask off as just being a bad person? Nice.
yes you’ve got me.
Being against the cancer of the earth, that has invaded, carpet bombed, droned, bullied, regime changed or sanctioned half the world and helped terrorists or genocide regimes is being a bad person.
This guy wants you to keep doing the same useless thing, already obvious and ridiculed 150 years ago
Just commenting here so it’s high up enough to see: this guy is an admitted accelerationist. Position invalidated. Thanks.
If Dems are so bad then why did they shutdown the government to save ACA.
Oops someone didn’t hear the senate passed the budget with the ACA cuts.
They didn’t shut down government to save the ACA, they shut down government to win a couple of elections. Thousands of federal employees went over a month without pay so they could win a couple of elections. They denied SNAP benefits to 42,000 people so they could win a couple of elections. And now that those elections are over, they have voted to reopen government with absolutely none of their demands being met.
And Bernie Sanders can go fuck himself. He is nothing but a sheep dog to the fascist oligarchy
What is it you do like? You seem to hate everything
Maybe you’re just a paranoid misanthrope. 🤷♂️
“Everybody sucks and is out to get me!”
Nope, Dems are fascists too
downvotes from people who don’t know what fascism is
I mean, yes and…
8 Senators don’t vote the way you want and now EVERY Democrat is a fascist.
Embarrassing childish fucking nonsense.
you read a different meme than I did
Liberals will read any meme that calls them out and then hate progressives more.
Scratch a liberal…
