So, because things are better than before, we must accept the status quo? We can’t want to improve further? Especially nothing that while we might be better off than the past, inequality is rising, governments are cracking down on freedoms and we don’t feel were being given a fair shake at life when compared to those who own the land we all live on?
No, it would be like the king saying “feudalism is bad” and then you saying “AND YET YOU HAVE A CASTLE WITH 2 TURRETS! HMMMMM CURIOUSSSS”
feudalism is bad. That’s still true if you personally benefit from it.
White supremacy is bad. I personally benefit from it. If I were to criticize the way white supremacy has shaped society as a white guy with a corporate job, are you going to then tell me “well you should shut the fuck up, you have it great what are you talking about!”
If Warren buffet tomorrow said capitalism is bad, he would be correct despite being the CEO of capitalism
Who are you doing this for man? Do you think if you post enough reactionary nonsense your boss is gonna give you a raise or something?
So, who is allowed to criticize the status quo, ever? By this logic, only one person on planet earth is entitled to criticize capitalism
You’re allowed to be critical of capitalism even if you dont have it worse than everyone else on planet earth. Shocking I know.
This is huge “hmmm, yet you participate in society” energy and is exactly the kind of thing the owning class want you to think like, probably has been paid for and spread by and for capital
You absolute fucking pillock
I’m sure you weren’t egging it, you were at my place that night
Do they not fucking check this stuff? When I sign a petition to my government they want to know if I’m a constituent or not. Otherwise why would they care about my signature on a page
Remember when we could have awaited a lovingly crafted topical high quality gif from a well known account?
If you would still consider yourself Republican at this point. I assume you want to be part of the problem more than the solution
How do you envision kids being picked up after school? Free for all?
Edit: yes I’m doubling down, the people in the replies are idiots.
Obviously walking, biking, or taking the bus is better. Let’s assume that covers 95% of children 95% of the time.
Now what?
I was asking what to do WITH CARS that are picking up kids REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT ANOTHER KID MIGHT TKAE THE BUS
This would have been a completely out of touch thing to say 10 years ago.
To be saying it today is a choice. It’s willing and malicious. She’s just provoking people deliberately because the response is what she’s after.
Ignore her
I asked who you were doing it for. Not who’s paying you, dumbass.
I can’t imagine why someone would be voluntarily carrying water for billionaires
