Liberals almost seem to get off threatening me with death camps if I don’t cheer for their specific warmongers.

"No, you don’t understand, Harris is only going to let Israel nuke Middle Eastern cities, instead of everybody everywhere, so you have to be excited to vote for her, she’s fleek, she’s brat, she’s

I only play Breath of the Wild to ride around on horseback and enjoy the scenery and music. So I genuinely can’t wait to play this.

According to the Clergy / Economists, there is an all-knowing, all-powerful God / Market that rewards the good and punishes the bad.

If you are poor and suffering, you must have angered God / The Market.

If you are rich, you must have pleased God / The Market.

No government can or should attempt to control God / The Market.

God / The Market is a fickle, unknowable, unpredictable beast that might occasionally destroy your entire hometown, but that must still be your fault somehow.

Being angry at God / The Market is like being angry at the weather, or gravity.

You can’t expect anything from God / The Market - you are entitled to nothing from the power on high.

You can pray, you can beg, you can hope - but you are entitled and rude if you expect anything good from God / The Market.

It’s funny how American nationalists expect this hegemony to maintain itself while they simultaneously let corporations strip every last piece of copper out of the country’s walls.

It’s wanting to sell your cake to the highest bidder, and eat it too. Ya can’t. Ya sold it. It’s gone. And the buyer has no interest in selling it back, instead we’re all going on cake subscriptions for $17.99 a month.

We have to save American Democracy, a political system that affords you no democratic power over anything whatsoever.

I like pointing out that calling Mitch McConnell a turtle ten billion times hasn’t removed him from power.

Mao is evil and everything he did was evil.

Kamala Harris is good and everything she does is good.

If you like Mao, who is evil, then you should like Harris, who is good.

Harris and Mao actually have really similar policies, which you should be happy about if you like Mao, which you shouldn’t.

Being a Liberal must be fucking exhausting.

Democrats might successfully rebrand as the party of the cops.

And I guess the GOP will rebrand as the party of old-timey gangsters, and chuds will have to pretend the Gotti move was good.
