He’s going to die on his principled hill…

You’re not wrong, but I’m saying it’s an additional step for folks to take. And why would they when everything they’re seeing is confirming their beliefs?

It’s definitely a problem of media illiteracy.

It’s the social media algorithms, man. Folks think that what they’re being fed is reality, so they never double check the information being given to them.

Full disclosure, I’m just as guilty. For months I had built up this whole narrative about private equity buying up all the houses and causing the current housing crisis. Apparently, private equity only accounts for like 10% of home ownership, and the reality is that we just don’t build enough housing. The issue is the same (and honestly I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that private equity is still at the heart of it somehow), but I allowed the algorithm to show me inaccurate info, and I bought it—hook, line, and sinker.

No reason to be ableist about. You can just say they’re stupid.

Exactly my point.

“Joe Biden’s the reason”

Maybe Harris shouldn’t have adopted his platform then.

Some folks just won’t learn.

Pushing for third party votes days before the election isn’t the way. You’ve got to mobilize during the rest of the year, make moves in more local races, etc.

Man. Take a look at that makeup line. What a weirdo.

I’d much rather have someone who was never a pacifist to begin with! At least they’re consistent!

Cool. Now what’s he gonna do?

I mean, listen, I put my sweatshop pants on one leg at a time like everyone else, and I still manage to pay attention. I don’t always have the deepest understanding of stuff, but how deep do you have to dig before you understand “I’ll be a dictator on day one” is not ok?

I just don’t understand how these people move through the world. Yes, it’s exhausting to be plugged in, and it’s totally possible to consume too much “news”, but how do people just not think about the wider world? I mean, I’ve got a job and a family, and I somehow manage to also be concerned about current events and global affairs.

I dunno. Maybe I’m the problem. Maybe I am crazy.🤷

I dunno. At least Trump is too fuckin stupid to hide it.

I did Google F451 fireman to make this

Yeah, fuck pig!

“But what if they turn me gay???”

They retconned that, too. But even in the EU the clones were relegated to training roles and quickly died off

Excuse you. Storm troopers are not clones.
