OBEY. CONSUME.
I’ve never seen it, so thanks for sharing the link. Apparently that’s where this meme comes from:
Don’t blame me, I voted for Kodos.
Man I’m just glad I’m not the only one seeing it.
Also I hope these people aren’t skinless aliens for real id probably poop myself.
things change for some people. For some time now politics are revolving around xenophobia and when you’re not concerned by this hate, when you’re not a target, you have the luxury to say/write: Both parties are the same, nothing will change.
Seriously. For people saying things don’t change, look back forty years. Reagan was elected in a landslide, winning every state but Minnesota, while refusing to talk about the AIDS crisis, and people acted like it was what “the gays” deserved. Within the last forty years we’ve not only practically ended AIDS in industrialized nations, but we have legalized gay marriage in the entire USA.
Go back sixty years and you’re at the Civil Rights Act. We just had the second major black candidate for president. She lost, sure, but the fact that she was one of the two candidates would’ve been unthinkable sixty years ago. Especially given that she would’ve been the second black president had she been elected.
The world is not perfect, and the better choices are certainly often flawed, but lines don’t go straight up. Progress takes time. And it can be hard to see in the moment, especially with setbacks like this election. But we are better off now than we were forty years ago, or sixty years ago.
