But y'know, 'blue no matter who' and all that goatshit
As opposed to what? Trump?
I genuinely don't give a fuck. Trump is a figurehead; the shit he'll do is just another tuesday for my community. What I know is, these spineless-assed, feckless-assed, useless-assed democrats are no longer it. Get right or get left behind, that goes double for your nation.
You wouldn't have had anywhere near this much time before payments resumed if not for dems
Ooh, a few months without payments, I'm sure that's incredibly helpful to people paying off their student loans over the course of decades. Thank you, Biden, for not fundamentally changing anything so I could go back to brunch in peace.
A few months? It was 3 years, and that was an insane benefit to everyone suffering under these loans.
There is a Russian saying that doesn’t translate to well, but basically says, “If they give, you take. If they hit, you run”.
Yeah he’s a moronic dem, but don’t act like this hasn’t been helpful.
You're right, but acknowledging that the democrats have actually helped a lot of people, are objectively better than the republicans, and that voting blue actually does get positive results would undermine the anti US propaganda narrative I'm trying to spread
Straight lying and spreading misinformation when it’s useless will just get us seen as untrustworthy. There’s no need to misrepresent the situation, it’s already as bad as is.
Acknowledging that your enemy made a good move is not the end of the world, and at the end of the day this was a measure that greatly affected and benefited the working class and proletariat.
Who cares that a democrat did it? Use the rope they give you against them. So why bite the hand that’s giving you a handout?
Because the Empire still benefits from not biting the hand with how hopelessly propagandized this nation's first-class citizens are.
What? I think you misunderstood me. I’m saying the people shouldn’t fight back against this one, because hell, at least it would’ve impacted the working class positively.
Also I don’t think the nations first class citizens are the ones taking out student loans.
Keeps his promises lol
Who paused the payments my dude?
I never said anything about who started the pause. Is Lemmygrad really pro Trump? lmao
No, we have more or less the same level of disdain for all Amerikan presidents. There is no meaningful policy difference between the two parties, only rhetoric
thats just so blatantly untrue lol. youre the type of morons who think you're only at fault in the trolley problem if you touch the lever at all
Which part is untrue? The foreign policy is completely unaffected by which party's "in charge". They're all imperialist scum serving the same capitalist interests.
Only if you think voting is the only form of worthwhile political action.
