like no offense but there’s a lot of y’all leftists on here that are like super well versed in theories and ideology and like you’re not necessarily wrong about things but my GOD do a lot of you love to ignore material realities.

like there’s a lot of you that talk about both political parties being the same and in a lot of ways you’re right but you can’t fucking tell me with a straight face that we’d be in the same situation we’re in now if Clinton had won that election. like you cannot tell me shit would’ve definitely gone this far off the rails under a democratic administration.

and like honestly you can talk all you want about ~the revolution~ but personally I’m at a point where I deadass do not give a fuck. if you’re gonna be more focused on a distant hypothetical pipe dream, instead of working with the reality we’ve got and supporting the people and efforts that have the most real chance to keep the government from fucking us till we’re dead, then I can’t fuck with you. you can’t fight in a revolution if you can’t fucking feed yourself or house yourself or afford to keep yourself alive. a lot of y’all are the mother theresa’s of politics.

Sometimes I can’t help but to wonder if people wanted to Trump to win because they thought it would spur on “the revolution,” even though they’re never going to be the ones to take responsibility to start it.

I actually heard a couple people before the election say exactly that. And yeah, they were not exactly the type of people who would start throwing rocks when the time came.

Also, I dont care how bad you thought Clinton was. If she was picking SCOTUS judges, Roe would not even be in the conversation. It wouldnt even come up.
