Biden and a lot of other Democrats don’t think they need EARN my vote or campaign support in order to win in November. Maybe they’re right but they’re not getting it without offering something that infuriates the oligarchy like Medicare for All or a Wealth Tax or a Green New Deal. 

I oonly watched about half of the first episode. I heard the copaganda critique from some friends who had watched more of it and thought it tracked with what little I'd seen but never resumed watching the show. Might give it another shot now though

Yeah, I only got through part of the first episode before wifey complained that she didnt know what was going on asserting that shows based on comic books are stupid and boring. 

You sure about that? The boogaloo’s main thing is that they want to fight the tyrannical government - makes no sense to me for cops to aid and abet people that want to be cop killers.

I thought the boogaloo crowd's main thing was fighting tyrannical government; surely they'd be interested in shooting down surveillance aircraft?

Is it copaganda though? Does it promote the idea that warrantless wiretapping and extra-judicial killings are basically OK things for the government to do as long as they’re doing it to the right people?

Somebody told me that show is rank copaganda that justifies its promotion of authoritarianism by simply making the primary antagonists violent racists the audience feels good about hating. They told me the only difference between Watchmen and 24 is that they swapped rural whites in the place of Muslims.

Are you sure that non-problematic CEOs/execs actually exist?

“Expand Obamacare” is code for “protect insurance company profits and employers' power over the lives of their employees". Jaime Harrison is NOT your friend even if he might be a better option than his Republican opponent.

Thats cool and it’s perfectly fine to be stoked that all these racist statues are coming down but lets not mistake this for progress. Progress means changing policies. Progress means redistribution of power from the top down instead of from the bottom up. Power will concede on these symbolic issues first as a way of di

I think you're being naive to give this corporate-funded politician the benefit of the doubt. Police are the only social service that doesn't get cut because they protect the rich from the rest of us. There was anti- corporate challenger who ran against Whitmer though...maybe he'll run again next time. 

You could donate to his challenger, Jamal Bowman. He's one of those "Justice Democrats" so he doesn't take corporate funding as a rule.

Why are you defending the corrupt, war-mongering incumbent Democrat? 

Good cops literally get murdered by normal cops

Maybe buy some guns. Cops weren’t tear gassing the re-open protestors. They also backed off from aggressive tactics against DAPL when vets with ARs showed up. Armed civilians won’t win a gunfight with the cops but probably will discourage them from behaving in ways that might start one

It’s probably because they’re well positioned to do this kind of work or at least some collection of influential people believe they are.

Why stop at voting? Groups like Southern Worker's Assembly and DSA are doing shit to fuck with Republicans, white supremacists and killer cops all year round without having to wait for an election... 

Maybe cancel culture is stupid in-and-of-itself. Ever read "exiting the vampire castle"? 

Better question is why hasn't anybody figured out how to manipulate these angry white men into hating people that actually deserve it (Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, etc).
