    This is divisive rhetoric.

    Remember our shared enemy is the ruling class.

    Both political parties serve the ruling class.

    Do NOT let them divide US.

    Apes together strong.

        The success of modern fascism has the same root cause as the success of fascism in the 20th century: liberal capitalism. Yes, Democrats are definitely better, and I certainly wouldn’t pretend the outcome of an election wouldn’t matter, especially for trans homies, but Democrat policies directly create the economic frustration that the MAGA fascists feed on.

        Both sides, Republicans and Democrats, ARE THE RIGHT. Both are pro war. Both are pro billionaire. Both are pro Israel. Both are pro genocide. Leftists have been screaming for years about the rise of fascism and were ignored for years. Now we have been proven right, again and again, and now are telling you, the democrats are 100% compromised, there is no saving them, and both parties must be dissolved. Now please, stop dividing the working class, if you want justice for the Epstein files, if you want this country to stop waging imperialist wars of aggression, if you want to stop fascism, we need to STAND TOGETHER FIRMLY against the ruling class.

        “There is only one party in the United States, the Property Party … and it has two right wings: Republican and Democrat. Republicans are a bit stupider, more rigid, more doctrinaire in their laissez-faire capitalism than the Democrats, who are cuter, prettier, a bit more corrupt — until recently … and more willing than the Republicans to make small adjustments when the poor, the black, the anti-imperialists get out of hand. But, essentially, there is no difference between the two parties.”

        ― Gore Vidal

        Both the republicans and democrats have plenty of billionaire pedo connections. The working class do not. This is another class issue - working class kids being abused by wealthy ruling class pedos.

          Watching Ivanka Trump disassociate when she introduced her child hood room makes me think the rich kids don’t exactly escape unscathed. But yeah, they target kids with the promise of changing their circumstances. They exploit the very weaknesses they breed in society.

        Unlike many here, I stay off-campus because I stay armed, not because I’m otherwise legally prohibited. Talk to me when you’ve actually punched a Nazi, not just gathered in a large group far-away from the seats of power to hope-and-pray mean words at them.

              Risking your life for a pedophile isn’t the flex you think it is. None of you lemmings that signed up (to attack poor people that never did anything to you) did it to “Defend” anything. Most of you idiots sign up to escape poverty. Poverty your ruling class is responsible for you being in, in the first place. Your military you so proudly associate with bombed a school and killed 160 kids, and you will strap on your boots and go kill some more because a pedophile told you to. And cowards just do as they’re told.

              Your entire country is built around exploitation of others, and you signed up to actively participate in enforcing future exploitation.

              Fuck you for your service.

              PS: it’s weird you don’t enter an educational institution because you are potentially “prohibited” but a school shooter will ignore that prohibition and there will be no one there to stop him. And I wouldn’t count on the uvalde police department to take action as they proved they are scared little piggies who hid in hallways while kids were being actively murdered, “for officer safety” Turns out your service couldn’t even save some kids from your very own people.

                Serving 20 years ago is nothing like “defending a pedophile”, but you’re otherwise correct that I got mine and have a very mercenary outlook on military service. Way to miss my real point though: I’m trained, not just cos-playing. More than that, I was trained as Military Police, and have worked for years in the security field.

                That said, Kyle Rittenhouse himself showed better de-escalation skills than you Blue-MAGAs here. He ran from a crowd that was chasing him down for putting-out their (literal)gas-station-parking-lot-dumpster-fire, until he could run no more and found a pistol in his face.

                Right, *I’m the one going places looking to start shit that gets innocent people or the just-ignorant killed.

                Next to ANY of you geniuses that keep coming after me here, that’s a garbage outlook. The crowd doesn’t make you safe; The crowd isn’t even on your side the moment your survival becomes even mildly inconvenient to their desire act without personal accoutability. Any of you are safer next to me, or Kyle, than with eachother, and that’s a fact. Hell, most of you centrists are so bad at this as to be safer with cops than eachother, and I am very much in the ACAB-stance when I say that.

                Oh shit, I missed your PS on first read. You genuinely think I won’t leave my gun locked-up to go have lunch with my kids, or would let a cordon of cops that haven’t made-entry in half-an-hour stop me in an active shooter situation? I would make it safer for them to go in than stay in front of me by that point, assuming they were competent enough to keep me from just sneaking past them.

        No they pearl clutch and love America and the democracy it has. But they have been taught that Democrats/Liberals are horrible, disgusting people. It’s a knee jerk reaction at this point. My brother, who is hardcore maga, said “no I don’t think they are talking about you. You aren’t a ‘liberal’”. Like he was saving me from a terrible slur. And I had to nicely tell him that I am, in fact, liberal.

        It kind of feels like the hatred against “the gays” in the 90s. They need someone to hate and right now it’s the Democrats and liberals, and I guess everyone else the media has told them to hate (lgbtq, trans, etc).

          Ask him what specific conservative policies he supports. Don’t even push back at first, just make him try and articulate what principles he even believes in that aren’t in opposition to something. Like ask “if all the liberals vanished in an instant, what do you and your side believe in and want?”

          So many of these people are so wrapped up in fighting boogymen they just truly haven’t even realized how hollow the cart they’ve attached their horse to is

      I always point to the Alabama Senate election between Roy Moore and Doug Jones. Roy Moore, known pedophile, vs. normal Democrat. Far too many conservatives went on record saying “better than a Democrat”.

      They are so anti-pedophile until suddenly they’re not. What a disgusting thing to change your opinion on, person to person.

      both sides of your pedo-uniparty are sick cultists. the same blind fanaticism where they choose not to see the evil of their own side in the face of obviousness.
      this ‘comic’ is a great example.
      Whatever the other side does or says is bad.
      If they said the sun comes up in the east they would deny it.

          I’m okay with law enforcement murdering citizens in the streets

          That’s literally the only difference.
          And ‘citizens’, AKA yourselves is all you selfish cultists care about.
          Genocide Joe, besides actively aiding in genocide also put plenty kids in jail and many non citizens died under his regime while in ICE custody.
          He deported a lot more than Trump too.
          Of course blue magats didn’t care about any of that until they started bothering YOU and killed 2 white americans.
          You know their names and made a big fuss about it, the Mexicans, Vietnamese,etc… murdered before didn’t matter much.

          taking rights away from trans, affordable healthcare, education…

          You literally did the meme

          Sure Trump is worse for americunts , to the rest of the world continuously suffering from your warmongering and imperialism it makes no difference.
          On the contrary, I hope he does his worst, makes you suffer and runs your shithole into the ground.
          You fully deserve it.
