The Inconvenient Facts

  • 70% of Americans support the Paris agreement.
  • 57% of Americans support single payer healthcare.
  • 60% of Americans think the Iraq / Afghanistan / etc wars are a mistake.
  • 67% of Americans support the decriminalization of marijuana and other drugs.
  • Independent voters are the non-represented majority, while both Democrats and Republicans remain record-unpopular controlling minority factions serving the Big Business elites.

But please, do tell me again how hypocritically repeating the empty word "Democracy" somehow makes America superior. Or how chest-thumping the "Greatness" of science-denialist, corporate-serving, tyrannously dictated "Freedom" can justify prioritizing perpetual war over populace-supported principles.

Any indoctrinated faith in a subverted, self-defeating process is just another form of religious slavery; sponsored American nationalism has become our terrorist cult and a global threat. Waking up to that reality isn't Left or Right- it is simply Sanity, and the common ground which should unite us all, not divide.

by which they sell slavery to the masses. It's a marketing ploy, not much different than teasing a donkey with a carrot to make it do what you want.

about his achievements back home in the US lately, I had the feeling that his propaganda was as good as Honeckers' back in the days of the communist GDR.

The FCC board is made up of three individuals, two of whom have voted to get rid of Net Neutrality.
So, two people- out of 351 million- get to decide whether the internet will stay classified as a utility or not?
Please someone explain to me how this is democratic.
Thank you.

@hellinahandcart or respected, they effectively stop being laws. A key component of resistance is removing the veneer of legitimacy from the ruling regime. When enough people disobey, circumvent and undermine this BS, we'll throw these bums out, one way or another.
