Idk, same shit honestly.

[–] HalfSalesman@lemm.ee 5 points 8 hours ago

I don't know. My elderly neighbor might be poor like me but his giant fucking Trump flag kind of makes me hope he dies because of Trump's policies, as well as miserable and alone.

I'll admit that's pure irrational spite politics. But the irrationality doesn't change how completely disinterested I am in joining forces with him against billionaires if he realizes he was wrong.

This is photoshopped… the picture was with mitt Romney and trump with his shiteating grin.. why the edit?

[–] garretble@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Right? There are now 1,000 images of these idiots together. Why doctor an old Mitt Romney photo?

[–] theacharnian@lemmy.ca 18 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

What do you think "the left" is??

[–] Casteyes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

OP should have phrased it as "It's not Democrats vs Republicans; it's the 1% vs the 99%"

[–] bampop@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I'd love to see a poll of how people in the USA would answer that question.

Leftism is just a fat woman with pink hair yelling at me for no reason.

I'm not a Leftist, I'm a Pan-sexual Afro-Future Longtermist Egalitarian Social Radical Centrist With Kropotkin Characteristics. I believe in a single worker owned commune unfettered by the cloistered norms of a 50s era revanchist white colonialist culture. But also I reserve the right to think white women with pink hair are shrill and want nothing to do with them. That's why I voted for Trump.

As I live alone and pay $500 a month just to be able to see a doctor, I am more and more enraged yet disillusioned the older I get. This is not living—this is fascistic technofeudalism.

Messaging aside, be aware that this photo is edited, Musk wasn't originally in it.

[–] ChairmanMeow@programming.dev 9 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

Wasn't it Ted Cruz originally?

EDIT: ah it was Mitt Romney.

[–] pcalau12i@lemmy.world 17 points 23 hours ago

"this isn't right vs left, this is right vs left"

uh... okay?

[–] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 10 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

The only war is a class war.

[–] Guns0rWeD13@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago

and what tool do we fight wars with?

guns.

[–] Sk3rgi0@lemm.ee 2 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

The only tragedy is our lives.

[–] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 2 points 12 hours ago

Speak for yourself.

[–] FinalEyes@lemm.ee 9 points 22 hours ago

No, this is Good vs Evil. Right vs Wrong. Truth vs Deception. But yeah, Billionaires are the dark half of those and develop extreme sociopathic megalomaniacal malignant narcissism apparently. How else can we explain it?

[–] saaaaagard@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 1 day ago (7 children)

What these dumbasses don't realize is that they do rely on these things - every minimum or even low wage worker absolutely needs these services to make ends meet. These people aren't just evil, they're stupid.

Medicare can't help a guillotine

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Good luck getting partisans to buy into this meme, but it is correct.

[–] henry1917@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

Left doesn't mean the democrats.

[–] lepinkainen@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Fight a class war, not a culture war.

And you, who thinks you are in the “upper class” by making 500k a year. You’re not, you are among the poor.

We fight the people who own billions, not you.

[–] Devanismyname@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

500k a year is a doctor or something. Someone who actually contributes to society. That's someone who should be rich because of how hard they worked to get there plus how important they are to our society. Elon musk shouldn't get paid a fucking dime.

I mean technically how they make that 500k matters. If it's all just being a landlord we are definitely fighting them too.
