But protesting is how we win. Did you not see the Democrats during the state of the Union speech. Did you see the Booker marathon reading. George Floyd protest. No Kings. That port shut down whatever the fuck that was. Occupy. Occupy 2. The woman’s March.
You need another no Kings protest. Do it again Super effective
I swear to God you all are going to sit back and watch Mamdani get crucified. It’s going to be so bad. The fact that we don’t see any pictures of him riding horses without a shirt tell me how unserious people are on the left in regards to playing the game. Y’all waiting to react. By then you’re already weeks late
Gimp
It’s not a pillow but it’s free and let’s you use your voice and opinion to create content that you can’t then post online and get your view out there. It’s like screaming
Until my grandmother knows. Go outside and see what people are saying. Almost all are right wing views spread by engagement online. There’s a guy on a bridge I pass everyday who still puts banners on it for NWO and COVID. If something is stupid but it works while something smart isn’t working then we should figure out way. Calling everyone dumb isn’t working out for leftist like that thought it would.
Makes sense that a single post on Lemmy is what you’d consider amplification
Meme creatures deserve to be paid for their time and effort. I personally believe we should include ads in our memes
This guy fucks…
The Bourgeoisie
100% MAGA can probably see eye to eye with the left on this expect the left isn’t really making much effort to do that. This post is great. There’s so much great content and examples of the abuse here. But the left’s job right now is to amplify it. But it’s not really happening.
Yea what the fuck is this post
Why does anyone need to accept it.
I can’t understand the thinking where you think other people should accept it. Cheating can lead to very serious traumas with lasting effects. Many of us have lost friends. Friends who have killed themselves after being cheated on.
People can change. But most cheaters will cheat again. Cheating is a selfish behavior and people who cheat in my experience are incapable of changing their ways. It’s a line that crossing it in the first place says so much.
Why would people speak out? Personal experience. I have friends I haven’t spoken to in years but I still want the best for them. I want them to succeed.
Who wants to drive hours to stand in the sun and get your heads kicked in
Who wants to download gimp for free and spend an hour making content
It’s kind of funny how cyclical the solution is here. Compute needs power. That power is driving climate change. Which kills the bugs which kills the humans which prevents any more bugs from being created.
Thank you for reading my Black mirror fanfic brought to you by noctua.
Oh I remember. It was a whole thing in Iraq. A lot of us remember it well. At one point the military very publicly announced anyone killed within an area where a terrorist was killed would also be considered a combatant. I still remember reading the newspaper 👴 when this happened. We even had one paper during the Iraq war that kept a running tally of drone strikes. The Republicans and Fox called them traitors of course
The reason I pushed back is because I kind of was going for something where we don’t make excuses for why they’re doing it. Especially if it’s just making an educated guess. What would that accomplish?
The point isn’t to justify their mask wearing. The point is for us to push questions, just like conspiracy theorists do. That’s what forces answers from our representatives. If we stop the questions every time by giving an answer there’s no momentum. Every person on the left needs to get better at driving pressure to the right places. We saw this with masks during COVID to the point that people thought they would die from wearing an n95 mask. Is it stupid? Yea. Did it work to drive public opinion to ban masks? Fuck yea it did. And that pressure didn’t build because people on the right stopped every other person on the right who brought up the idea that masks might suffocate you. They all had enough social awareness to take those dumb ideas and build off and spread it. They created memes and found studies that supported their ideas. They shared articles of masks killing people. They pushed it all to every comment thread under every politician they could and in every online post. They weren’t idiots. They knew what they were doing. The left were idiots for thinking they didn’t.
This is a point I want a lot of people too understand here. The left call the right leaning people idiots. They’re fucking not. Not even close. Are there idiots among them? Sure. But as a group they are leaps and bounds ahead of anyone on the left. We have a serious problem on the left and I’m not sure how that gets solved because it first needs an awareness of how the left may be dumber and less effective than the right.
Drone kills
3797 villians neutralized
324 innocent souls transferred to a better place
Yea but the left also does the same. They don’t say everything is going great. But they do exactly the same thing they did last time they said everything was terrible. Therefore they must think what they do works pretty well otherwise you’d think they’d change their methods at some point right?
Like how many things does PETA need to change themselves to before you stop eating hamburgers ya know?
How many people can we fit into a street and how many heads need to be caved in before the left gets some higher taxes right?
No he won’t. Who is going to hold him accountable. A sternly written headline?
You people have twice the outrage of the right with not even half of their ability to act on it.
Great, thanks for letting us know
I literally have tons of ideas. Really simple shit too but you all love to argue so much and never learn. The leftist of today are the same leftist that let FBI infiltrate their most effective groups in the 70s and let them turn them into nonsense cults to kill any momentum. There the same leftist that took occupy wallstreet and turned it into a nonsense cult of stoners clicking their fingers in a park. It’s the same leftist that went from having a dominant cultural position with media and tech and has handed it to the right wing on a platter. The same leftist that have removed themselves from every social spaces allowing right wing ideas to rapidly spread while we all sit in the corner laughing about Ed Sheeran moth beans.
We need engagement and capture. I watched the right wing spend a year building a network of accounts from the ground up. That network spread information rapidly. And by information, it was literally shit posts. Trump on horseback with no shirt soy Wojack nonsense. And it fucking worked. It’s the most bullshit thing you accept but it’s true. People need to act like a network flood the channels with the messages to refute theirs.
