  • In terms of Palestine? I don’t know how you yanked that interpretation out. If it doesn’t change with either party then the only reason to vote Trump is spite, followed by a leopard eating your faces.

    In terms of everything else? Yes and no. I do know we would not have:

    1. Further rollback of civil liberties of women
    2. a tax plan (impending) intended to trap women in marriage
    3. brown shirt army stalking people and performing street executions
    4. war with Iran
    5. gas prices that will continue to rise long after the war with Iran is done
    6. A rollback on all solar and wind programs / projects
    7. rollback of consumer protections re banks, credit cards, junk fees
    8. halt on internet being made an essential utility
    9. a tax plan that pushes billionaires toward becoming trillionaires
    10. NIOSH gutted, good luck with work safety gear manufactured from here on out
    11. Elections being gutted for midterms via the US postal service
    12. Speech, now, you can’t even protest Israel without being arrested or booted.
    13. Impending collapse of the dollar
    14. Cuba
    15. All those dead fishermen in South American waters
    16. Further privacy erosion in favor of Google, META, Microsoft, etc
    17. Disrespect and disenfranchising military vets, like Kelly and all the randomly expelled career generals in an attempt to make the military another brown shirt brigade
    18. And I’m sick of listing this crap.

    Arguably, 9 & 16 would probably still happen, but in slower subtler ways. The rest? Every spite vote or lack thereof made it happen.

    I don’t like our two party system. But unless you have an actual solution that fixes it at the time of an election, then the spite play does indeed hurt all.




  • We’re not doing much now, even with:

    1. regime endorsed street executions,
    2. rollbacks on elections for midterms via postal service shenanigans,
    3. a pedophile and generalized rapist for President,
    4. religious threat, action, and rollback on the civil liberties of half the population,
    5. Healthcare,
    6. RFK and admin dismantling the cheapest most effective piece of healthcare we have: vaccines
    7. A war which will make transportation in this giant nation more onerous, and render more people homeless,
    8. impending collapse of the dollar,
    9. billionaires on their way to being trillionaires under the new tax code,
    10. Veterans disrespected and harassed and randomly ejected from their jobs weekly,
    11. A presidential police force stalking the streets, paid with our tax dollars,
    12. A partridge in a pear tree

    And you think the 1% whacking Luigi will incite action.



  • It’s a cycle. Their dads and grandads tell them “back in my day women didn’t do these things…”

    Yea, because they were trapped. Caged. Legally and financially.

    And then there’s the manosphere. Josh Johnson just likened those guys to pimps. And you know what? He’s right. The manosphere figures are there to fill a hole created by bad fathering, take your power, dress you how they like, and have you give them your money in the process. Like a pimp.

    Men who don’t know who or what they are fall victim to all of the above.
