This is why American politics are so fucked. We can’t even have a discussion about how we ended up in this position by looking back 9 years. How in the hell can we put context to what happened to the labor movement in the 1950s and how it applies to modern day struggles if we have to be so tunnel visioned into right now? How can we examine why the BLM protests fizzled with only a few cities making minor material changes, when the activism of the civil rights movement lasted over a decade?
This isn’t whining, this is looking at the context of the current moment and urging people to do something other than vote. Vote or don’t vote I honestly don’t care at this point, all I could do was laugh at the news today everything is so absurd, but if you’re out here and the only thing you’re doing is voting and urging others to do the same you’re apart of the punchline.
No, no, no, don’t victimize yourself because I dismissed your piss-party about how you want to sabotage our last fight for democracy over a decade-old grievance by trying to recontextualize it as some sort of refusal to spontaneously engage in a middle-of-the-night marathon session of deep-dive political deconstruction of the 2016 democratic primaries and how Bernie got screwed, because that’s not what just happened, and you’re not anywhere close to smart enough to gaslight me into believing it is.
But it’s cute of you to try. Adorable, even.
But you’re, like, a couple of decades too young to try that kind of fuckery with me, kid.
ONCE AGAIN, THE YEAR IS 2024, AND THE ELECTIJON IS BETWEEN BIDEN AND TRUMP (FOR THE SECOND TIME)
Now that you know what year it is (and who the candidates are), let’s see if we can keep your attention focused on the facts of the conversation rather than your past grievances.

Can you muster that modicum of self-control?
