Fair, I can't argue that's a good lens to view this through. I can only hope these people's message actually get some people to wake up.
But that pessimism didn't just appear. There's a reason, and I'm my opinion a good one, for it. I think we're long overdue for a political overhaul. Though I'm probably just preaching to the choir.
Not even mug shots really. Just close ups of people who aren't white.
No names, no location, no information. Just "Murder" and a photo. It's less than a mug shot.
Hey he specifically broke the record for longest filibuster when it didn't matter directly after voting yes to the budget proposal. How is that performative?!?! /S
Could have done it a week earlier and it be an actual filibuster instead of some symbolic bs.
Or they're people that actually want change and a better life for us all. And that's not coming via either current party in the US.
I think expecting Democratic Senators to vote no on things like the Laken Riley Act or Democratic Judges to not sign bogus warrants to arrest Gaza protesters should be a bare minimum expectation.
Them not even being able to do that " keeps people down on the Democrats."
My understanding of the event:
- 4chan jokes they should pretend the okay hand sign is a white supremacist dog whistle to trigger libs.
- They do and it works.
- Online shitters who's whole personality is "triggering sjw's" pick up on this and perpetuate the joke to continue to trigger people.
Basically people getting mad at a joke caused it to become a real thing to some degree. While not a supremacist symbol it was heavily used by them for a time.
IMO she's already rich, and more of your money goes to an evil multi-billion dollar corporation than to her. If you enjoy the world fuck it, enjoy the shows, have, books, etc... There is no ethical consumption under capitalism and we're in dark times. You need to covet the things that bring you joy.
Side note: She plagiarized most of the first book from Anthony Horowitz's "Groomsham Grange". I understand there's a lot of books about magical schools but seriously if you read them back to back it's clear. This isn't important to the conversation other than to supply another reason to hate the bitch.
Edit: you can't boycott someone who's already rich off selling the IP. Be mad as you want, people aren't enabling her by purchasing content made by freaking Warner Brothers. She already got her bag.
You can't boycott Rowlings at this point though, she's made her fortune off the IP already. You're essentially virtue signaling.
Musk on the other hand has most his wealth tied to the stock of his company. They aren't remotely similar.
