    That we shouldn’t give credit for things till they happen

    Especially when what it is, isn’t enough

        If somebody told you they didn’t like Ford trucks, would you start insulting Chevy because your mind honestly thinks it’s a binary thing and everyone loves one and hates the other?

        That would be stupid as fuck, but seems to happen a lot here on Lemmy.

            The illusion of choice…

            To be specific something where the rich always win and the poor always lose.

            But sometimes we get basic human rights, and sometimes we lose them.

            But the money stays the same. Tax rates the Dem party support today, would have been too conservative for Republicans when fucking Reagan was in office.

            It’s weird that has to be explained so often still, but that’s why neither party seriously wants to help education I guess…

                It used to be that we had a say in the primary system.

                Now we don’t.

                Accept it and you’re accepting the end of American democracy.

                I don’t spend a lot of time talking to people like that, especially when they seem happy about it and try to convince people to just accept it and even talking about it is bad.
