  • Our best bet would be to collectly stop believing the lies of the DNC and start a new party that minimizes or forbids lobby from corporate goons.

    But the capture of the two party system is very strong and any talk about that gets self-policed by well intentioned folks. The DNC propaganda is strong. I’m all for minimizing harm in the moment, but the harm of the status quo is building to many many decades of past “we have to vote DNC one more time” moments. And with climate catastrophy here already what harm are we minimizing? If there isn’t a future for our descendants due to corporate-caused climate change catastrophe, then what are we even fighting for?
















  • Just because people did it, didn’t make it acceptable then nor now. Just because a person murders another person and it happened, doesn’t make it acceptable. There is a bend to history written by the powerful that history absolves because “what was acceptable was different at the time.” This line of thinking is flawed, ethics existed then too. Things like slavery and racism were just as wrong during times of codified ‘legal’ chattel slavery as it is today. It silences those enslaved and the many many people who decried its existence.

    Same applies here.

    Literally what we are fighting against with the Epstein files is precisely this.
