overly specific playlist idea: songs for when you’ve already cast your ballot and all you can do now is wait for midterms to be over so you can find out what the odds are that we’ll be able to beat the fascist uprising
hey just out of curiosity did trevor noah ever take back his whole “antifa are the real terrorists” thing or nah
Something to remember, as the election approaches:
The work is never wasted.
Even if the Republicans keep control of Congress–yes, that would be terrible, yes, I would be furious and frustrated and sad and it would hurt like hell–EVEN SO: the work we have done to get here was not wasted.
I was part of the previous “biggest worldwide protest ever,” the global protests against the Iraq War in February 2003.
We lost. The war happened. Is still happening.
But some of the people who got involved then worked for Obama’s campaigns, a lot of them are part of the resistance now, and all of us learned something. The work was not wasted.
Even if we lose. There were Democratic primary debates in my hometown for the first time I can remember. Even if our terrible Republican Congresswoman gets re-elected, there’s still a broader and stronger Democratic Party organization in Mike Fucking Pence’s home state.
The election can’t be an end. It will only be an end if we win and get complacent, or if we lose and give in to hopelessness. We cannot afford either. We do the job that is in front of us. No matter what.
Puerto Rico didn’t have electricity for a year and Flint still doesn’t have clean water. But within one week and just in time for the midterms Trump orders thousands of troops to the border to install miles of barbed wire for a caravan of refugees and asylum seekers two months away. Borders are violence.
m8 do you really want to reblog from me, a known Transtrender™
All you seem like is a nonbinary person so like whatever. I reblog from anyone whose post I agree with.
I don’t have fucking dysphoria m8
as far as you’re concerned I’m a cis person who’s faking being trans to steal resources(that I don’t even use on account of not feeling the need to physically transition but whatever lol)
Okay and? Im not an asshole. Like if you want me to be an asshole so you can prove that truscum are bad and nasty whatever. Im not an asshole. Like I dont need that information. For all Im concerned youre a nonbinary person who uses they/them pronouns and I will respect that. Im not an asshole and you cant make me one.
believe me, I’m glad you’re not being an asshole to me, I’m just extremely puzzled as to why you would be so anti-transtrender in the hypothetical but then not have a problem with me
