Call me old fashion but no one living on the streets and having their basic needs met sounds pretty utopian to me.

They were built for the Prolitariat, which homeless folks are quite literally a part of.

Yeah that's called late stage Communism, which we have never achieved as humanity. Late stage Capitalism is currently pushing more and more folks into dangerous housing situations like the bottom right quadrant of this meme. Capitalism and Utopia are oxymorons while Communism and Utopia are synonymous.

I'm not saying that voting harder back then would have changed anything, but drawing a parallel between then and America today where mask of Fascism is very much on the ballot tomorrow and a year from now in the presidential election. Not voting to protect one's ideological purity is the height of privilege.

To all the burn it down and rebuild leftists (by protesting and not voting for the lesser of 2 evils) tell me how well that went for the Communists in Germany and Italy the last time mask off fascism rose to power there....

Edit: Not one of these "Self-righteous leftists" have addressed my question about what happened to leftists in Germany or Italy when fascist took power there. Its almost like they dont give a shit about the Prolitariat and would rather engage in purity politics rather than support the working class or marginalized communities. Absolutely pathetic astroturfing, or simply a complete disregard for the Materical Conditions on the ground in America.

Anon learns about Material Conditions.

I know Republicans are incapable of doing anything, that's why I pinch my nose and vote blue, while trying to build class conciousness on the ground. The Prolitariat cant flourish if the party in power are actively genociding trans folks and minorities. The Republicans have gone so mask off, its impossible to not vote for the lesser of the 2 evils and have a clean concious. At least for myself anyway.

Ive been called a Tankie multiple times for merely advocating for class conciousness and calling out Capitalist Hypocrisy, I also left Lemmygrad when then deleted a comment i made arguing that voting for the lesser of 2 evils is the best course of action to protect the Prolitariat in the rising wave of transphobia and bigoty in the West. The same way blahaj zone deleted my comment with hundreds of up votes under the "kick Tankies out of 196" post calling them out for being explicitly anti Tankie, while they dont even define what they mean by tankie, which can be used to define any person with communistesc ideologies. Fascism rose to power in Europe 90 years ago on the back of anticommunist rhetoric, and easily took power because Communists were the loudest voices of opposition. Not calling Blahja zone explicitly fascist, merely pointing out how anticommunist rhetoric is a rallying cry for Fascists, BECAUSE IT IS.

Puncturing someone's insular bubble via a familiar substrate is exactly what I'm trying to achieve with Nascar memes. Thanks for puttng that into words. My main goal is to make memes leftists can share with their redneck/ middle america coworkwrs who are extremely disenfranchised by the corporate world and dont know where to direct their angst.
