  • 2025 obligatory alternatives to social distancing:

    -Isolate in the office, just never go home (and keep working of course)

    -Instead of not going to work, you can get a free brain worm at one of the new brain worm dispensaries

    -ingest a lethal dose of Ivermectin

    -Storm and plunder one of the official buildings on the list published on the Department of Patriotism’s website (must bring own gallows parts)






  • You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make them drink.

    The issue here is that the horse has been drilled into being gullible for generations now. Compared to other civilised nations, what Fox & co are allowed to spew forth on a daily basis goes way beyond what would be considered libel or incitement in other places. But the root of the problem isn’t even that, the real crux is that whoever pays the most, decides what is legal and what not in the US. The fact that pumping money into politics has been decided to be perfectly a-ok freedom of speech instead of skewing legislation towards the richest is incomprehensible in many other societies. The Supreme Court and the lobbies make a mockery of actual democracy in favour of buying influence.











  • Being called socialist isn’t even the issue. My point is that a news monolith has spent decades radicalising half the country and at this point there are enough cultists that will mercilessly tear down anybody Fox&Co paint a target on. Until there is a solid defense against such a hate machine, no party will flourish on its merits as long as Fox-drilled stooges will only be fed a caricature of any opposition Fox designates as the enemy. Even your perfect ideal candidate would lose the election. The boogeyman Fox would paint them to be would be so repulsive and half the country would never even hear their ideas anyway, except what skewed perspective Fox would blast the viewers with 24/7.
