Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

Of all the things wrong with GNOME, their choice of logo is at the bottom of the list.

That still doesn't explain why you would choose the other two instead of just counting 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 like a sane person.

Yeah, I don't see why #2 is necessary. Make the government have to compete with the free market. If you're poor, you get a government-funded apartment, but if you're wealthy, you can afford a luxury condo.

There are food banks in my city, and nobody believes that they're a threat and they're going to put supermarkets out of business. You could just have standardized, ubiquitous food banks run by the government.

Yeah, it's basically "If you keep calling all of the stuff I like 'communism', then I guess that makes me a communist."

That's hilarious, but even if they'd used an example with something that the dog could actually understand, it's still bunk, because all of that "alpha" stuff is based on junk science. Those people trying to "establish dominance" are just bullying their dogs for no good reason.

Suddenly those boomer memes about the wife and husband hating each other make a lot more sense.

Just duck it.

I thought that tankies were just communists who think that Stalin and/or Mao did nothing wrong.

It’s a website. I was on there for 15 years and I left with a snap of a finger. It’s not that serious.

That's why it's a bad analogy.

I'm the fool? The planet is burning, and they have you convinced that the one party who's interested in fixing it is your enemy.

And then you sold out?

The failure of the left to unite behind the Green Party is what has caused so many of our problems. The Greens were talking about a Green New Deal over a decade ago; for the Democrats, that's a fringe position even today. And that's just one issue. Single payer health care was part of the Green platform back in the 90s, and that's still a fringe position for Democrats 30 years later. I could go on and on.

I cannot imagine how anyone could think

MTG doesn't do much thinking at all.

Your protest vote won’t help anyone except Trump

I don't "protest vote". I vote for the best candidates on the ballot. I vote for the candidates that I would like to see win.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Republicans are supporting third party candidates in battleground states, cause that would be a smart move.

I wish the Republicans were funneling money to socialists and other leftist candidates. I think it would backfire on them the same way "elevating" Trump did for the Democrats.

Please vote for the Democrat, ffs.

I sure will, as soon as the Democrats adopt single-payer health care, free college tuition, a Green New Deal, etc. If they want my vote, it's simple: adopt the Greens' platform. I have no loyalty to parties. I would've voted for Bernie if he'd gotten nominated.

Oh, there's a trial and some other stuff. There are extra steps. Still slavery, though.

It's the same argument. These people are enslaved. The 13th amendment abolished slavery "except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted".

Vote Green.

Biden was trying to “finish what FDR started” in addressing rural poverty, education and medical care, Greene said. She also accused Biden of trying to turn America socialist.

"Socialist" is a good term to scare folks. (At least, folks over 50.) FDR...not so much.

It's obviously a takeoff on Dark MAGA.
