  • California made it in the constitution that marriage is between two people, gender or sex is not considered what counts
  • And we also made it so Medi-Cal gets a permanent chunk of funding no matter what the budget is doing.

You have one party led by a Nazi, you have a Nazi party.

If you have one party led by a Nazi, and the other party invites and allows "peaceful" talks, you have two Nazi parties.

Trump is a Nazi, acting like you're just doing your job of transition of power means you're handing the keys to the Nazis.

Dems: We will never bow down to fascists!

Also Dems: We love to reach across the aisle, we can build some of the border wall!

Dems: Trump is quoting Hitler and his followers are enjoying it.

Also Dems: Look how many former Trump supporters love us! That means we'll will!

Why do try to get the "ravid racist redneck" vote instead of a united front to stop fascists by giving aid to BIPOC, women, and queers?

The only thing that pissed me off more than Trump winning, was seeing how many good Props failed, and bad ones passed.

I'm glad we made LGBT marriage part of our constitution, but jesus christ the voting base here is NIMBYs, NeoLibs, and Conservatives.

Fucking awesome. Onion has been hitting it hard lately, and this is just the cherry on top. I am hopeful this makes some chuds question their minds.

Biden tells the sad paid for truth, Trump sells paid for lies.

Both won't change that most American wages aren't going up, prices are. Certainly won't with tariff going to 60%.

Biden didn't really do much for the average American. He could demanded higher wages, pushed for healthcare coverage, and investigated price hiking. And arrested Trump. He did some, but for a man who is currently a sitting duck who is above the law, he's choosing the safest/"easiest for the rich" option as a presidential RBG.

Trump won't do much, but will loudly shit out that he did, and his followers will eat it up and ask for more.

It's why they courted Republicans, they wanted that same "they'll do anything we say" energy.

Oh I meant I liked Last Jedi, it was the only good one.

The scene I wasn't sure of, but the movie over all was good. I like the idea that Ray is a no one, and that helps the idea that anyone can be anything.

And then "whoops, youre only powerful because force eugenics!"

It has a lot going for it, and a really great setting/foundation for a thing.

I gotta read those comics sometime.

This has won me over. I was kinda meh about it outside of the nice visuals, but this clicked it together for me.

Thank you.

In a way, he did. Star Trek helped to break the racial barriers of 1960's America, and inspired a generation of scientists and engineers to invent things that we use commonly today.

There was an entire generation of people who saw what Star Trek brought to the TV screen, and wanted to bring it into reality. Gene saw thousands of fans were inspired to become a better person because of an idea he had one day.

People saw an interracial kiss on screen for the first time. Some were outraged, most didn't see a problem. Some saw a Japanese person working equally with white crewmen while Japanese-Americans still were treated like garbage and had their possessions still stripped from them.

Roddenberry intended the show to have a progressive political agenda reflective of the emerging counter-culture of the youth movement, though he was not fully forthcoming to the networks about this. He wanted Star Trek to show what humanity might develop into, if it would learn from the lessons of the past, most specifically by ending violence. An extreme example is the alien species known as the Vulcans, who had a violent past but learned to control their emotions. Roddenberry also gave Star Trek an anti-war message and depicted the United Federation of Planets as an ideal, optimistic version of the United Nations.[15] His efforts were opposed by the network because of concerns over marketability, e.g., they opposed Roddenberry's insistence that Enterprise have a racially diverse crew.[16]

Gene didn't live to see a post-scarcity, no violence, bigotry free society, but he inspired people to achieve it. Gene died happy with knowing he sparked an entire idea into action, some day in the future.

 

You call out Russia or China, MLs think if they regurgitate "read theory" that solves my issues with them.

You call out American liberals and how they aid fascists, you're calling a secret Trump supporter.

You say that genocide is an evil action, liberals and Tankies will defend their favorite country's actions because you're a shill for the enemy if you do.

You say America did something kinda good, you're somehow a neolib in disguise. You lightly praise the USSR, you're Stalin's second cousin as an AI.

I just don't want people harmed by a government force. Fuck me, I guess? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills for applying the same morals to every politician and country, even ones I live in or slightly like.

Edit: If someone said it was annoying being an leftist and a bunch of liberals came in exusing their actions and doubling down, everyone would be singing a different tune. Just kinda fascinating.
