SOMETHINGSWRONG

One of my favorite work chores was going to the big box hardware store in full work kit (hi viz vest, industrial radio, random pens and knives and shit, etc) and telling white people I don’t work there.

Yes, for some reason the minorities were either already working there or didn’t ask where their nail was while literally staring at a wall of nails.

Anyway it was incredible how some people, even the young ones, just cannot change their mind that I did not work there. The young ones were cool and laughed it off (while still assuming I worked there) and the old ones just went into this weird mental feedback loop.

Interestingly you just regurgitated right wing propaganda without knowing it. Black and Central/East Asians, while certainly not common, casually roamed around Medieval Western Europe on pilgrimages or business and rarely ran into race issues.

It would not be ahistorical at all to run into some Korean pilgrims or African traders.

Medieval European peoples generally cared more about class and wealth than race. Rather ironically, it’s a modern fascist invention. Were you a Hawaiian prince or a peasant from Normandy? King or serf? Race had nothing to do with it for most people.

Makes me laugh at the liberals spewing American exceptionalism bullshit in the other comment chain.

Strong union support? Plenty of vacation? 40 hour work weeks???

Genuinely, what fucking insane liberal bubble are those people living in to say this and act like Democrats are the “other side” rooting for the people and putting these in place.

How can you say with a straight face the Dems have strong support for unions. Maybe the fucking police union, sure.

How can you say we should be happy with the 40 hour work week. I work 55 per week and this is common for STEM degrees. In America, salaried workers don’t even get overtime and often make less than the fucking forklift operator outside.

How can you say, unironically, Dems have given us plenty of vacation days. Even the most liberal strongholds use less vacation than developed countries. Y’all know it’s normal for Europeans to fuck off for an entire month every year?

How fucking dare you liberals spit in my face and tell me bold lies and then demand my vote.

The reason the hypocrisy of liberals is so fucking unbelievable is the realization that liberals don’t actually have beliefs or values. They are truly blue MAGA, that’s all it is. They don’t give a shit about making society better or helping the working class.

And I’m so fucking tired of it. Burn it all down at this point if my choice is between continued hell or the literal apocalypse.

Can you even imagine the shitstorm if F-22s started dropping lmfao

It would be pretty funny if this is how the newest bird flu pandemic starts

Have you tried simply subsidizing corporate profits with $3 billion (USD) of taxpayer funding per year, every year, and increasing every year?

You can accomplish a whole shitload of shareholder value if you simply stop giving a shit about the citizens!

Who tf has enough clothes to pack for a trip and still go through a week of work and laundry

Is this some kind of privileged meme I’m too working class to understand

Yet another liberal straw man.

Let me guess, what comes after a liberal gets scratched again?

The Americans caused 6 million excess deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan and nobody batted an eye except the leftists that time too.

And yet you see all the liberals today acting like they weren’t cheering for genocide for the last 20 years and Iraq was totally a mistake they totally didn’t vote for.

Genocide is a feature of capitalist democracy, not a failure.

Find someone whose unit worked with the 101st airborne in Iraq and they’ll have more war crime stories than you have time for.

Yes, I remember clearly the Democrats pushing the “don’t care for who, just vote” campaign.

And then Republicans started winning elections while losing the popular vote and Democrats decided to demonize the left and blame them for every loss afterwards, despite literally winning the vote.

You can even see it here in this very post, where leftists are blamed for liberal apathy.

You seem to be saying US Democrats are leftists. Why are you ignoring everything the DNC has done to villainize, marginalize, and destroy leftists movements in the Big Tent? Are you aware there is no “left” remaining to mobilize?
