        We manage to tolerate our far-from-perfect elite class as they steal our wealth and destroy our futures. Why hold protestors to a different standard?

          If the alternative isn’t absolutely perfect it is way better to stay with your abusive partner.

          This is /s of course, but sometimes it feels like people actually believe this.

      I expect morons to stay home whining that Democrats weren’t perfect enough and then complain voting doesn’t matter when they suffer under Republicans.

        There certainly will be morons that stay at home and whine but if you look beyond that you’ll see that we had several protests with record breaking turnouts last year. Resistance is growing and there are tens of millions of Americans who aren’t staying home.

          Honestly, I can hope, but tens of millions of people in the streets doesn’t engender much hope when 90 million stayed home last November and helped put us here.

          A ton of the the people who constantly harp on voting not being enough tend to be the same people who don’t show up on voting day imo.

    As we speak, an impressively sized asteroid is heading our way. Normally nothing would happen, but like last time an elon has to get its way. Last time it was elonpatusaurus who used its long neck to attract the end of the dyno. Today we have elon stinkass…err musky who must find some shit on the aforementioned assteroid. Stinkass thinks there’s gold or lithium or europium doped with germanium sandwiched in tritium. Whatever it is he must risk all of our lives and futures to get the fucking thing. Ofcourse we can’t do anything about it cuz we just live here in his planet. Anyway, just love each other out there.
