  • I see major political change of any kind as 5 years away at minimum. No organization inside or outside of government really wants major change. At most they want to twist a few nobs and dials on the machines to increase the pain at a faster or slower rate.

    Americans are pretty far from the level of suffering that will produce violent revolutionary conditions. We barely have any solid reform movements since everything gets coopted by either political party and defanged. There are no independent centers of power and many people are too alienated or disconnected to create a movement.

    I’d like to think something has to happen soon with how the financiers are sucking the life out of the country’s and world’s economy but all of the carefully crafted systems of control seem ascendant. Even with both political parties being filled with incompetent losers they can still bumble their way through maintaining the system.

    This is a country where cops can kill people in broad daylight and get away with it when it’s on video. The American psyche has to change but I feel like it will only get worse with the conditions.





  • I went in without hope for the election and I am actually upset that the Republicans look like they’ll hold all three branches of government fully. That’s not something I had considered since I’m used to some kind of division inside congress. They can do real freak shit with the whole of the Federal government if they can all get in line. Moderately big if since there are factional divides in the party but still there are valid things to be worried about if in the grand scheme of things the empire will continue on unimpeded.

    Anyway, the material conditions drive the world and they will mold and influence you as well. It’s important to build and structure your life in a way that can support your how you want to grow. Basically try to join an organization even if it’s a glorified book club and you might meet good people and restore some of your faith in humanity and also deprogram your liberalism.






  • I’m skeptical since the genocide has bipartisan support. The position would have to become something insane like “He’s letting Israel go too far and giving them carte blanche to do whatever they want. Joe Biden at least held Netanyahu back”. Nothing would probably really change and they’d have to twist their brains into a pretzel to think that though. Maybe the media tries to pin some new genocidal act on Trumps support when the capitalists want to stop Israel or hurt Trump? Idk.

    I also feel like there’s a small chance that Trump, as a media and PR obsessed freak, might tell Israel to dial it back if he comes to power and the protestors say too many not nice things about him or wants to sell them out for a quick win to distract from whatever scandal he has that week. Anything can happen really.
