Let’s go TACO, let’s go!!!

Update: Yes, the Dems have been pretty much useless but they can’t do anything when they have no majority in either the House or Senate and Don TACO is ruling by EOs.

But this is how you get him and them. Fuck the high road, hit them at their level. Call them names like weirdos and TACO. If anything induce strokes in all of them.

    They’re planning to take away food stamps, end health insurance for the needy, and are trying to exterminate the T in LGBT (don’t worry, they’ll come for the LGBs too since its last hired, first fired). But, the best Dems can do is giving out tacos once as a political ploy?

      The conservatards are literally at war with women right now. The Democratic Party suggests we eat tacos. Well played /S

      Would you rather they not give out tacos? Fascist.

      Maybe you should think about how you can best support the democratic party, instead of failing them by asking them to do literally anything? I think that makes the entire invention of fascism your fault.

        I’d rather something more substantial than one stunt of tacos. Like, give tacos to Americans in the Republicans home districts.

        Maybe you should think about how you can best support the democratic party, instead of failing them by asking them to do literally anything?

        I vote for them. I donate to the ACLU, the HRC, and the Trevor Project. I am a layperson who is not needed by the political machine more than every other year. I am working on passing the bar exam, so I can’t quite litigate yet. But, I will be in a position in a bit. So, do you have any suggestions?

        My point that I made here:

        are trying to exterminate the T in LGBT

        was that evil must be opposed beyond mere tacos one time in one location as an obvious political stunt. Ask a T if these tacos would make the Zyklon B go down any easier.

          Okay, so, first off, the democratic party cannot fail, only be failed. Big kamala slogan, if you even bothered to pay attention to the campaign, and i think it holds pretty true.

          So if the dems are ever not doing something you want them to, it is entirely and personally your fault.

          Furthermore, action for the sake of action is literally one of umberto eco’s main identifiers for fascism, so asking the dems to do literally anything makes you the real fascist.

          death by tacos

          I polled four trans women and one trans man. All the trans women said if the zyklon b had to be adninistered orally, they would prefer it be on a taco than straight. The trans guy was from the midwest and asked if it would be spicy, so i think thats the main point of contention, and i cannot imagine fascists knowing what peppers are. Maybe dont speak ror marginalized people without their consent, asshole.

          queer people in general and trans people in particular

          look, sometimes in war, to accomplish absolutely nothing, you have to feed hundreds of thousands, or even millions of your own people into a meat grinder. Great generals like luigi cadorna knew this. But apparently some dipshit half-a-lawyer thinks they know better than the most lethal general italy has ever had.

            It’s my fault in that I am not rich like the big donors who bought our political system? I’m sorry that I do not have a million dollars to throw around.

            Furthermore, action for the sake of action is literally one of umberto eco’s main identifiers for fascism, so asking the dems to do literally anything makes you the real fascist.

            Maybe, but it can also be the grounds for revolution rather than fascism. But even if this point is correct, I ask: is better to go quietly into the extermination camps they’re setting up? Or should you ardently resist, struggle, and force them to drag you into the camp? I quote Dylan Thomas to make my point:

            Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

            I polled four trans women and one trans man. All the trans women said if the zyklon b had to be adninistered orally

            Polling people over Zyklon B and its application is absurd. It shows that you either asked a foolish question or the recipients did not comprehend Zyklon B. Zyklon B was the cyanide-based pesticide gas used by the Nazis at Auschwitz-Birkenau, Majdanek, and other extermination camps. My point is that we’re dealing with Nazis resurgent, and the Dem’s tacos are a so limited in their messaging/resistence that its absurd. Evil is winning, and tacos are not how you oppose evil.

            Maybe dont speak ror marginalized people without their consent, asshole

            You don’t know me. You don’t know what communities I am and am not apart of. Furthermore, it is bold of you to assume I was speaking for anybody but myself. I was merely stating my position that tacos are a poultry pittance of a resistance against the evil that is the Republican party.

              trans people are stupid and don’t know about the holocaust

              One of them made a joke that referenced fritz haber. I think she knows what zyklon b was.

              rage, rage against

              So you admit you’re just preaching hate? Because youre the real fascist?

              grounds for revolution

              Fascism is just revolutionary conservatism. You’re really not helping your case here.

              tacos are not how you oppose evil

              You don’t know me! You dont know how i do things!

              Also opposing evil is action, and action is fascist.

              You know what neitzsche said: “he who fights monsters is always automatically worse than the other guy, because hes fighting abd fighting is bad.”

                Rage is not the same thing as hate. Where rage is an intense feeling of passion, hate is an extreme dislike or disgust. They are synonymous, but they are not the same. Rage would have been what they French expressed against King Louis the XVI and the first two estates, hate is what the Nazis expressed against the Jews and the other undesirables.

                Fascism is just revolutionary conservatism. You’re really not helping your case here.

                Fascism need not even be brought in via a coup. While Mussolini took over from a coup, Hitler was elected. They were revolutionary mindsets in that they were so diametrically opposed to the established reigns of power, but conservatism is not necessarily the direction revolution must follow. Take for example the French revolution or compare the Mensheviks with the Bolsheviks. Both those revolutions had a leftist slant. Hell even the American Revolution was a leftist position compared to the British parliament’s conservatism that was undertaken in during its empire.

                Also opposing evil is action, and action is fascist.

                Really? Tell that to MLK, Rosa Parks, or the march across the bridge to Montgomery. Tell that to the allies as they fought against actual Nazis.

                  rage is cool and good

                  So you admit that what you really want isn’t freedom, but a new red terror that makes the streets run red with blood? Thanks, comrade 1794; youre really selling the hell out of this

                  i listened to a podcast once

                  And kinda missed the point

                  nuh uh! Sometimes action is good!

                  Im sorry, but no; all action is fascist and only total submission and paralysis can be accepted.

                  fought against the actual nazis

                  Im old enough to have actually talked to a few of those guys, and, um… Clearly you aren’t, or missed the opportunity.

                  Plus they took action, which is the most fascist tjing you can do. Fighting against fascism is the real fascism.

                    That is exactly what the rapist says to his victim.

                    Fighting against fascism is the real fascism.

                    Yep. You keep seig heiling.
