@vriska ah my bad. I’ve only known people from American Samoa and Puerto Rico and they said they sucked.

@vriska that sucks so bad i feel for anyone living in a US territory it’s all the downsides of the US with none of the upsides

@vriska where the fuck do you live Mordor

@vriska you don’t need to pay medical debt they can’t garnish your wages for medical debt

@arcana @nyx silence Nyx! A segregationist is speaking!

@PallasRiot Fair comparison, but also the Clinton campaign was actually also just turning down volunteers because they thought volunteers were irrelevant to winning and ground work wasn’t very important. It wasn’t *just* activists they were alienating but the entire idea of grassroots organizing as a whole was discarded because it worked for Obama in 2012.

@PallasRiot the reason queer rights isn’t abandoned on the spot like Palestine has been is because there’s actual queer people and allies in positions of power that would be pissed off. Billionaires would be mad at them and pull funding.

@Parasite going to the food bank and coming back with half the calories I regularly would would be incredibly inconvenient for me

@PallasRiot see I disagree. The Democratic Party doesn’t rely on activists, activists rely on the Democratic Party. Without the Democratic Party to be an instrument for the kind of change they wish to see, these activist groups would lose all their clout and the non-profit complex would collapse. The Democratic Party would still be able to rely on corporate and union donors and mobilize its own organizations without them. Democrats know this, which is why they only entertain policy pushed by activist organizations that don’t go against their real funders. Do you think the entire pro-Palestinian movement can even reach a fraction of the power in the Democratic Party as Haim Saban alone? That guy can fund whole national ad campaigns and organizer training centers.

@Parasite It’s quite simple. I do things that I don’t think are morally justifiable all the time for convenience’s sake. Also I used vegetarianism and veganism as an excuse for anorexia and it’s hard for me to not get into the habit if I go back to that.

@vriska this goes insanely hard

@nyx i saw your post and immediately thought of “95 theses more like 95 broads” and I knew the world needed this

@nyx

I’m the gay Martin Luther of lesbian gods
