And no, the 6.134258 shares of Apple in your 401K don’t make you an owner, lol.
While I appreciate you covered up drakes face with Luigi, please consider using the laforge version of this meme in the future. Here is a copy for you. Thanks.
I’m out-of-the-loop. Did Drake do something bad?
I will do so!
Damn dude, you win. Way to inspire me to aspire to your level of greatness.
Nice
It’s still very important to recognize the impacts of racism, sexism, homophobia, and more. White supremacy, cishet supremacy, and patriarchy are additional axes by which the overall contradiction of bourgeois vs proletarian is waged. You can’t erase that. You have to acknowledge it within the broader class war. Historically, class war has been waged the fiercest by those most marginalized by it, uniting and making significant social progress is necessary for Socialism.
Yup. It’s not about the “gays vs the straights” or the “left vs the right” or the Romulans vs The Federation. It’s about the rich vs everybody else. It’s a class war. It always has been and the rich use the media they own to make you think it’s a culture war. To keep you fighting with other so you won’t figure out where the REAL source of your pain comes from.
No war but class war.
So left. That’s what leftism is.
While globally true, it isn’t what the United States heavy handed Democrat party is at all. They work with Republicans to deny class struggle exists while they bicker on social issue symptoms. A for profit media amplified left/right freak show designed to keep us distracted and hating each other over relatively petty social issues so the owners can bleed us dry in peace. They’ve made us so divided on so many lines we can barely see straight, all to facilitate profit/growth/metastasis at all other expense.
The handful of spoiler candidates the DNC despises and undermines more than Republicans notwithstanding, the owner’s succeeded in legalizing political bribery in the US, and thus we have an economically right-wing neoliberal party and a “put undesirables in concentration camps” party to the right of them.
A leftist movement either needs to steal the DNC infrastructure out from under them and force the neoliberals out as Trump did with the GOP by out-hating them, or we need to somehow make a third party work.
Because the DNC and the RNC are high on Corporate bribe money. Their values align more with one another than their voters. They will do all they can to undermine this movement, and will cooperate on that like peas and carrots.

Alternatively, we can just continue to be comfortable having our children murdered solely to increase quarterly earnings of cheering profiteers that would consider your dead child less than human if they bothered to think about them at all, which they wouldn’t.
“Democrat” is not synonymous with Left. Most Democrats aren’t leftists
This. Comparing them to my national parties (NL), my rough estimate is that the Dems are more right wing than D66, and they’re pretty much centre-right.
Come back to me when your left is on par with GL-PvdA
The US democrats are a far right party. The US doesn’t allow any left-wing party to reach the public sphere, because its far right country.
While globally true, it isn’t what the United States heavy handed Democrat party is at all.
??? Democrat party was traditionally center-right and now is far-right
Most social justice aware leftists don’t deny class issues, lol wut

Thank you for saying this. It’s very frustrating when people act like having retirement savings makes you like billionaires.
This is 100% by design. The only way to retire in this economy is to invest in an exploitative business. So over time, people find themselves supporting ideas that make retirements in general farther away, but their own retirement nicer.
i love how this guy is putting class consciousness into people.
the race, gender and politics discussion is important, but to get anything done we need class consciousness first.
Less “first,” more “alongside” imo. Class division is the primary contradiction, but you can’t untangle it without making progress on the secondary contradictions.
thats a good point. its part of how they divide us.
The 400m beats the 800m any day of the week. The 800m is too long to sprint and should be abolished.
You.
Take.
That.
Back.
Race war!
The 400m is the worst distance because it’s the longest, that can be done anaerobic.
This results in the maximum lactic acid and pain for such a short event. It’s the uncanny valley between proper sprint and endurance.
Right is in the first place because they support capitalism, therefore support owners
Thought it said labradors and thought this post was written by a dog criticizing human politics compared to their dog politics between themselves and their owners
“Humans have limitless bacon, but force us to perform tricks and go outside to pee in view of the whole world before they’ll give it away as a treat.”
I kinda disagree with this a little. These things are interconnected. While we shouldn’t let stuff like race and sexuality divide us, we shouldn’t ignore that some groups have been fucked over more than others and part of dismantling the system is seeing what parts are rotten. Red lining n shit.
I’m not saying to ignore them, I’m saying we have a common enemy using those differences to exploit and murder us by amplifying every division except owners vs workers using for profit media and captured government, encouraging us to fight one another over them so they can do so.
Note the absolutely confused and terrified tone the for profit media is going through right now when they’re perfectly fine when 10 kids get gunned down. That’s just another wedge for division, gun control, for them to stoke as no one that mattered, to them, died.
Im saying that until we pause and dethrone the owners, they will see to it those secondary divisions remain entrenched and heated to keep us weak, and therefore they are the primary threat that must be the priority to solve literally any of our great national blights.
We cannot begin to heal… Any division… Until the instigators that keep stoking them for private profit are defeated and made subject to society, government, and regulation again instead of controlling them.
Reigning in our sociopathic, murderous late stage capitalism is step 0 to any positive change. They are the gatekeepers. Or get comfy with everything continuing to decline until collapse. It’s hell now. It will get so much worse with them running government and controlling mass media.
cough cishets

They’re saying you should have used the word “cishet” instead of cis, because cis only refers to ones gender, not sexual orientation. Cishet is both gender and sexual orientation (cisgender and heterosexual).
Being distracted and divided is what we do.
We need a Luigi (the human) Wojak asap.
Nintendo will step in and spoil the fun (hard) if this gets momentum.
Also for human Luigi: Mugshot Vs Twitter pic for drake meme also?
fuck Nintendo, i don’t think they’ll want to push their luck

Right vs Left Race vs. Race Men vs. Women Cis vs. LGBT
What did the left Race, or the women cis, or the Race Men do to deserve this?
