Eugene V. Debs' Ghost

I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.

Anarchist/libsoc. If we’re stuck with a government, it should use its taxes for healthcare and education, not murdering.

  • America: Establishes military bases, missile silos, CIA blacksites, international espionage agreements to violate the rights of the citizens in dozens of countries, has invaded and overturned governments because they disagree with what the president wants, calls itself the world police.

    Americans: “Why are so many non-Americans invested in what goes on in our country? I know we’re a big deal, but why would anyone be interested? Must be paid actors and bots! I don’t care about French elections, why would they care about American?”


  • Biden tells the sad paid for truth, Trump sells paid for lies.

    Both won’t change that most American wages aren’t going up, prices are. Certainly won’t with tariff going to 60%.

    Biden didn’t really do much for the average American. He could demanded higher wages, pushed for healthcare coverage, and investigated price hiking. And arrested Trump. He did some, but for a man who is currently a sitting duck who is above the law, he’s choosing the safest/“easiest for the rich” option as a presidential RBG.

    Trump won’t do much, but will loudly shit out that he did, and his followers will eat it up and ask for more.











  • My eggs are more expensive too. So are everyone elses in the world. I just blame Putin for destabilising and the stores for blatant price gouging the second they felt they could.

    Exactly this. Harris probably would have overseen the shift of the prices going back down and the “muh economy and inflation” Republicans wouldn’t have had as big of an argument for 2028.

    Ukraine winning, Trump dies from health issues/arrested for his crimes (long shot on the last one), and doing her best to secure abortion and queer protections, she would have been great for her second term.

    And now we get nothing but the worst of both worlds.
