I mean honestly a fundamental restructuring of democracy in the US. We need a 3rd party in the US that can hijack the Democratic party apparatus without falling victim to its trappings in order to crack the first-past-the-post system; without that, capital has the oppressive power of the top 5 most funded militaries in human history. The US squats on any country that even thinks of not playing nicely with capital, and without that there can be no resistance to climate change.

Beyond that, you really just need to prepare. Blah blah, mutual aid, community defense, etc. I’m not gonna bore you with what you know, just reiterate that it WILL help when shit hits the fan. I guarantee you when your kids are getting conscripted into the water wars, you’re gonna want to have enough community presence to push back.

To drop the shitpost a bit, every time I think of American politics I think about, I can’t remember his name but some racist internet personality decided he’d try meth to prove that addiction is a personal choice. Fast forward, dude obviously ended up getting his whole shit wrecked by meth addiction. Like obviously we have politicians that want to bring resource extraction home for dinner, but we have an entire populace convinced we’re just built different.

I mean if you can build a competing hegemony, be my guest lol

On that Bernie 2028 type shit

I mean, not really? Uneducated parts of the population having disproportionate amounts of children wouldn’t impact intelligence at all, like bro go back far enough and all of our ancestors were uneducated. Like it wasn’t that long ago that 100% of parents and 100% of children thought if you pissed on a certain tree you’d get struck by lightning.

Idk. Honestly I get why they did it; I’m wracking my brain and the only reasonable explanation I can think of would be smartphones, which didn’t exist when the movie was written. You don’t know what you don’t know, you know? Like I said it’s still a good movie, like it’s still funny and captures a fair bit of seeming trends, it just also sets itself up as a wet dream for people who think other people don’t deserve the right to have children, which is a pretty core belief of the people we’re trying to mock.

I mean the movie was fun in its time, and has a good critique of societal trends from the mid 2000’s, but yes. Literally in the beginning of the movie, after they freeze the mc, the narrator explains that society became a shithole because while intelligent people waited until their 30s to have maybe 1 kid, stupid people had so many kids that they just bred intelligence out of the gene pool. Even at the end the narrator explains that nothing really changes, because while the mc and romantic lead go off to raise 2 intelligent kids, the stupid sidekick went off to have 32. Sure, it was more a plot device than an actual moral stance, but it is also a deracialized form of literally THE core belief of the eugenics movement.

Yes, Terry Crews, funny guy, good joke, it maps onto the Trump admin decently if you squint. It’s a funny satire, but it’s also 20 years old. People were Idiocracy-posting on MySpace during the Bush admin when the movie came out. And considering the basis for Maga is also purging the undesirables, maybe resting on the laurels of a movie whose plot is based on there being immutable, undesirable genetic characteristics is a bad idea, or at least in poor taste.

Bruh the literal plot point was that uneducated people had so many kids they drowned out the gene pool. Can’t believe you think you understand the movie but haven’t seen the first 5 minutes.

Idk can we stop with the idiocracy posting? I get the film; I don’t think I’m the main character, I think the plot is eugenicist and that while uneducated people put Trump back in office, stupidity is not genetic.

You may be talking past each other. This IS propaganda: Not to defend murder or extrajudicial violence, but Hamas by all accounts beheaded criminals. To dude’s point, Hamas IS a violent, repressive group born of inconceivable human suffering, as referenced by them using beheading as a form of punishment. But back to propaganda, western media is more than happy to strip all context to display Hamas as just some back-asswards Islamic terror group rather than a legitimate governmental force, despite Israel’s propensity for capital punishment (and the US’s).

Privacy is like swimming in an endless sea: Oftentimes you find yourself barely treading water; often more you’re choking, trying to find your balance and your breath. Never forget that you spent your whole life drowning until you decided to swim, though.

Deadass before reading the article I thought it would be Likud bitching that he paused their genocide for 5 minutes.
