Fighting for fat liberation while self-proclaimed progressives refuse to even admit that fat people are oppressed is constantly hearing:
"We support accessibility! Just not for you."
"We support the right to adoption! Just not for you."
"We support ending eugenics! Just not for you."
"We support the end of capitalism! Just not for you."
"We support treating people of different appearances equally! Just not for you."
"We support celebrating all human bodies! Just not for you."
"We support equal pay for all! Just not for you."
"We support the end of medical abuse and discrimination! Just not for you."
"We support the fight against police brutality! Just not for you."
"We support more positive representation of marginalized groups! Just not for you."
"We support listening to sexual assault victims! Just not for you."
"We support ending job discrimination! Just not for you."
"We support not being left to die in terrifying and fatal hurricanes, like what the fuck who deserves to be left to die in a fucking hurricane?! Juuuuuuuust not for y–"

"Best he's Ever Been" According to MSNBC. Biden Trails Off Mid-sentence and Can't Remember Lie.
youtube
Biden claims that Trump is "going to cut social security and Medicare". The claim is blatantly false. Trump said he would fix bad management of entitlement programs.
Maybe Biden is referring to the 4 different occasions he supported the end of Social Security and veteran benefits when he was a Delaware senator. Dementia will do that to you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

On Wednesday, Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Chair Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) and Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Washington) reintroduced a proposal to make higher education free at public schools for most Americans — and pay for it by taxing Wall Street.
The College for All Act of 2023 would massively change the higher education landscape in the U.S., taking a step toward Sanders’s long-standing goal of making public college free for all. It would make community college and public vocational schools tuition-free for all students, while making any public college and university free for students from single-parent households making less than $125,000 or couples making less than $250,000 — or, the vast majority of families in the U.S.
The bill would increase federal funding to make tuition free for most students at universities that serve non-white groups, such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). It would also double the maximum award to Pell Grant recipients at public or nonprofit private colleges from $7,395 to $14,790.
If passed, the lawmakers say their bill would be the biggest expansion of access to higher education since 1965, when President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Higher Education Act, a bill that would massively increase access to college in the ensuing decades. The proposal would not only increase college access, but also help to tackle the student debt crisis.
“Today, this country tells young people to get the best education they can, and then saddles them for decades with crushing student loan debt. To my mind, that does not make any sense whatsoever,” Sanders said. “In the 21st century, a free public education system that goes from kindergarten through high school is no longer good enough. The time is long overdue to make public colleges and universities tuition-free and debt-free for working families.”
Debt activists expressed support for the bill. “This is the only real solution to the student debt crisis: eliminate tuition and debt by fully funding public colleges and universities,” the Debt Collective wrote on Wednesday. “It’s time for your member of Congress to put up or shut up. Solve the root cause and eliminate tuition and debt.”
These initiatives would be paid for by several new taxes on Wall Street, found in a separate bill reintroduced by Sanders and Rep. Barbara Lee (D-California) on Wednesday. The Tax on Wall Street Speculation would enact a 0.5% tax on stock trades, a 0.1% tax on bonds and a 0.005% tax on trades on derivatives and other types of assets.
The tax would primarily affect the most frequent, and often the wealthiest, traders and would be less than a typical fee for pension management for working class investors, the lawmakers say. It would raise up to $220 billion in the first year of enactment, and over $2.4 trillion over a decade. The proposal has the support of dozens of progressive organizations as well as a large swath of economists.
“Let us never forget: Back in 2008, middle class taxpayers bailed out Wall Street speculators whose greed, recklessness and illegal behavior caused millions of Americans to lose their jobs, homes, life savings, and ability to send their kids to college,” said Sanders. “Now that giant financial institutions are back to making record-breaking profits while millions of Americans struggle to pay rent and feed their families, it is Wall Street’s turn to rebuild the middle class by paying a modest financial transactions tax.”

I think there's some cognitive dissonance surrounding progress that I really need you all to accept:
Regime changes are not smooth. They're scary even. And rebellions are messy and scary too.
A lot of you are like "yes that makes sense" and I'm glad because when I say this next thing I want you to Not be reactionary and immediately defensive, but listen and remember that progress means taking risks that make you uncomfortable. Remember that you want progress. Don't blurt out the first excuse that comes to mind like Really sit and think about it. Because you're gonna have to accept being uncomfortable if we want things to change.
Stop voting for Democrats and pressuring everyone else to vote democrat. They signed an agreement with Republicans saying that they denounce socialist policies (good welfare programs) in an era of late stage capitalism, poverty, and severe climate change. They intentionally platform extremists to help themselves win (and in fact this strategy backfiring is exactly why Trump won in 2016)
Democrats are not a party of progressives who are trying to fix things. They're literally trying to replace Republicans with extremists on ballots just so ppl feel obligated to vote for them. Democrats are intentionally scaring voters with an alt right & fascist candidates for votes.
If you have ever said "vote blue or else-" or "vote Blue and we might be able to save (state)" then this strategy has worked on you.
If you want Actual progress then you gotta vote for people who are promising you progress. Progressives, independents, green party.
Democrats keep promising that the fire won't get worse, but they've been fanning the flames the whole time cuz they love the heat.
Quit voting for people who prefer that your house be on fire.
And yeah it'll be scary to vote for a party without as much support and yeah maybe it does cause a swing vote.
......But maybe it doesn't.
Maybe we end up with a president willing to do more than compromise our rights with transphobic Republicans. Maybe we get our rights codified & even get a process for handling fascist politicians like trump & Desantis. Maybe we get a president with a personal and genuine interest in the betterment of us not just our economy.
And it starts with you doing something just a little different than usual.
We cant have change if you're too afraid to create it.

Imagine being Joe Biden and knowing *this* guy and Trump are the biggest threats to your political career.
Literally, at this point, all the guy has to is not die.

Biden's Mental Health Declines as he Spreads Misinformation about Trump.
youtube
Despite Biden's blatent cognitive failure on full display, he falsely claims Trump "encouraged Russia to attack NATO allies".
The reality is that Trump didn't encourage Russia to attack anyone. He made it clear to NATO allies that US involvement in foreign wars is expensive to America and the 100's of Billions of dollars spent defending NATO allies is a debt expected to be repaid. If there is no repayment of debt, there is no protection from the U.S, even if Russia comes knocking.
