Apologies in advance for further inundating everybody’s headspace with celebrity slop, but I wanted to blab about this:
I generally have no faith in public personalities to hold any convictions at all, so it has been refreshing for Hasan to adhere to his position against voting for Gruesome Newscum. I don’t at all mean to imply that he’s perfect, or that people should look to him as a leader in any respect, it’s just nice to see something like that happening and getting broad exposure. Feels good.
I think you’re both assuming antagonism because tone is lost in text.
You both have really good points imo. At the end of the day I’ll err on the side of taking whatever small wins we can get. I was radicalized the through some inane and stupid stuff, literally anti-capitalist memes on Reddit. And if there’s someone out there saying capitalism is bad and the US is an evil empire, that’s a strength I want to build on.
