Random Political Thoughts/Quotes/Etc Thread

Post by BurtReynolds »

- At this point I have more sympathy for full blown tankie communists than social democrats. Corporate friendly capitalism with a massive welfare state is a catastrophe for the human race.

- The welfare state will inevitably lead to a social credit system. Eventually you will be required to behave in order to get your rations. This will happen here.

- When people from one region of the country can dictate how people in another region live by outvoting them, that's not democracy, that's foreign occupation.

- Imagine wanting either Charlie Kirk or Nick Fuentes to be the leader of your youth movement.

- Accelerationism in all its forms is fascinating, but I don't know if I am one yet.

Do we really need an entire thread for Burt to post dumb political shit in? He was doing a fine job spreading it out under currently existing threads.

I just ignore all threads started by Burt, so I didn't even know this thread existed.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

This thread is kind of like my idea for a hot takes thread that crashed and burned.

It’s a really tough time right now to be a good person who just happened to be born with the name Karen

plenty of Karen license plates probably available in the gift shop right now

or maybe none because they sold out due to the ironic appeal

or none because of a concerted effort by the right to embrace the name and wear it proudly

or none because they got pulled from the shelves to avoid accusations of racial insensitivity

confusing times we live in

Karens needed to be purged. It was long overdue.

The name that was being used when this meme was being born tended to be Becky, particularly describing the ones who call the cops for racist reasons. That should have stuck; unlike Karen, Becky is a diminutive nickname, and one much more associated with older generations.
