You aren’t a failure you are being failed

My partner and I both woke up early and are getting breakfast together

If I thought I could take it without breaking down too much

Another book on the reading list. I will never get through all this will I?

Open source camera apps like open camera and fossify camera exist as well and don’t cost money

Never was really

Also a great argument for education reform

Holy shit I love that for her. I’d give up my name too

Possibly ringless honey mushroom but you’d need a spore print

I am not really abandoning anyone by not voting for her. Though I did, regardless, for my partners sake, not that it made any difference where I am but that’s probably the only reason I felt comfortable doing it. I’m not abandoning anyone because democrats weren’t going to save them. The moment the overton window shifted further right they’d abandon whatever group came next. They were already competing for who can be the most transphobic as far as I am concerned.

The fact that they never codified Roe v. Wade while they had a super majority should have been revealing enough for most people to realize they only value our rights so long as it they can be used as a tool to gain votes but alas

We, the working class, should have voted for the anti-genocide candidate (there was one) and the fact that we didn’t convince enough people that it is possible to elect them and to vote for them means we failed palestine. That is our failure.

We should have done better. Better was possible. We failed them.

But in the same way our government has failed us by not even having a non-genocide option that feels viable to most people. This is inherently democratic considering most people do not support genocide. You should be angry at the Democratic party most of all and you should be afraid because you now know that they are willing to abandon anyone they claim to protect. You should now know that their words are meaningless. If they are willing to slaughter these hundreds of thousands, what makes you thing they’ll actually do anything to protect. Our rights are carrot they dangle in front of us and fascists are the stick they use to threaten us.

Yes because we should have done EVERYTHING WE COULD TO PREVENT GENOCIDE AND WE DID NOT. We pretended it wasn’t an issue that could be fought and let them be slaughtered. This country saw a genocide and said ah well, never the less and voted for the genocider. Voting the democrats into power never would have protected anyone. We could have prevented this genocide but too many people weren’t willing to be uncomfortable for it.

So yes, they are saying that the people punching left over this issue are harming minorities and using them as a weapon to feel morally supperior. Because they are. The people who didn’t vote or voted third party aren’t because voting never would have changed a thing for these people (or any other minority longterm). The US will kill them regardless of which person was elected.

You need to get more radical, the right certainly is and you will be left behind. Find left leaning or leftist support networks you can trust and get a gun. This shit has been inevitable for a long time now and most of us have been too propagandized to see it. You cannot fight fascism through the ballot box, they will just fucking shoot you. The west has been far too comfortable for far too long and we have forgotten what our ruling class is willing to do to us.

It’s usually my therapist. Actually typically it is myself acting as my own therapist.

Huh, I didn’t know you could italicize emojis

Always remember that electric cars and automated vehicles are not here to save the environment or to improve transportation. They are here to save the car industry.
