I read a comment on some political video, which was basically this idea, so I drew some crappy figures.
Third panel, “ill make sure of it.” (For the children of MAGA)
MAGA as in - make America “greet” again"- ?
It might. Remember to have hope and stay strong. Who does it benefit for you to feel defeated? There’s a clear answer to who will benefit. You can open the link as is, or in the app tubular. Either way https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdS-lwb58KU
Oh, things will get worse… We haven’t actually felt hardly any of the effects. When someone loses their job, it sucks, but it’s not actually that bad until they’re getting evicted or can’t buy food. Cutting public health and research isn’t bad until we have the next pandemic. Cutting all these government subsidies isn’t that bad until the farmers go under and we can’t find healthy food
I don’t see that as defeatism, I see it as the working class is about to be very, very angry about the same things at the same time, and that means opportunity for change
Sorry, double response. If you are in America, there are direct things you can do. The YouTubers always say to “call you local constituents”, right? If you are not in America you can join the boycott of American services and goods. Join the fight. Yes this is the beginning. But for god sakes, get up from the floor and pull your pants up!
Stay strong my friend. Understand that we have power together. We must unite and not take this shit laying down with our asses up. Stay strong
Lemmy loves to play to the negatives in everything. At this point I think it’s propaganda.
I’ve been noticing this more and more. Do you know any other forum where people who want to make a positive change can come together?
Just a friendly reminder to take a break when the news are getting too overwhelming.
STOP– Stop, Think, Orient, Plan
Worst day for democracy so far.
it’s not pessimism when it’s simple fact
It’s pessimism when you use it as an excuse to do nothing about it.
depends if there is something you can actually do
The unknown is always scary. The known tends to be less so.
Kids these days don’t know how good they have it! It’s going to be so much worse
I’ve started learning Russian in preparation.
The Russians are pushing hard right now. Stay strong! This is how they want you to feel! Defeated and scared.
