The dems "trying" to do something is fucking meaningless, also the thing they are trying to do, is to generally stop the gov from going more right, never reversing direction. And you can mock the left hoping things change, but unfortunately the left has been effectively removed from politics, so outside of the outrage bubbling over into revolution there is a single thing the left can do. You must live in a different reality from me i guess, enjoy it, sounds nicer than the real world.

I mean I feel like i agree with you on everything, other than you believe political change is possible and I dont. I also do not believe you have argued that the outcome is remotely likely, only that its more possible than revolution.

It would be easier to get a shitload of progressives elected into positions of power in the US via the democratic party than it would be to lead a successful revolution to overthrow the US government

Let me float a third option, which is the current state of the country will remain unchanged. The economy will eventually collapse under the weight of the capitalists, triggering worldwide economic collapse, and then WW3. I'm just praying fascism loses again in the end, and that the systems can survive long enough for me to die naturally first.

Democracy™®

I respectfully disagree that the party could never change due to their current funding

If what you are saying is that the democratic party could change because we vote in enough progressives then I have a bridge to sell you. The capitalists who own the government would just out-finance progressive election attempts. Think of how many progressives we would need to have it impact the whole Dem party, now think about how many elections that is where the entire force of the media is against the politician who will actually fight for you. Now consider how easily manipulated our wildly uneducated population is.

I know its a bitter pill to swallow but capitalism has already destroyed democracy long ago. It is just that we have been in decline for so long now that it is finally becoming unavoidably obvious.

Its all wedge issues. Keep us arguing about stuff that doesn't get in the way of capitalism and you wont demand a better life. Hell many of us will even defend the party that aligns with our side of a wedge issue because "At least it isnt the other one i hate", and while i understand voting for the lesser evil, we all do it, I will never understand defending the lesser evil. If 2 people are stabbing me to death I wont thank the one using a smaller knife.

I am becoming a believer that it isnt weakness, its complicity. The weakness is just a good facade to hide the truth.

It also shouldnt be surprising, the government is just a capitalist mouth piece.

"Fuck you I got mine" should be printed on our money

and yet the ad servers want to blame the end user for adblocking. not their absolute refusal to moderate or police any of the content they deliver.

This is the American way. You try to shit blame elsewhere so noone puts the onus on you to improve so you can keep a larger portion of the profit. "Fuck you I got mine" should be printed on our money lol

Listen scro, Imm just tryin to keep the people from gettin deaded

Now to make it worse, ask this, "If the corporation did 10 times this amount of damage, but to the general citizens of the country, how many people would go to jail?"

That's right 0 people would go to jail! And they would only be fined for no more than 10% of the profit they made while doing it. Maybe someone like a jr director of operations gets tossed in jail, but he wasnt really apart of the club.

And how our legal system is setup to best defend the wealthy.
