The conversation that seems so hard to have:

We are at a crossroads. One path leads to an eco-dystopia in which most of us become slaves to the 1%, vs. another path that leads to a futurist utopia in which we focus on solutions that benefit all of mankind and all the other lifeforms on the planet.

It seems like an easy choice except for that 43% of the american population that has been duped into fighting to make sure we end up in the dystopia because jesus and guns or whatever.

Is this not a simple trolley dilemma? When do we realize that we have to pull the switch? There’s a way out of this that most of us don’t seem to want to recognize. I’ve watched politics for over 30 years first person, and I don’t see playing the simple democracy game getting us anywhere. I think we need to resort to more despicable measures. Does anyone agree?

    You’re sitting here, characterizing BIDEN as the person who will bring us:

    a futurist utopia in which we focus on solutions that benefit all of mankind and all the other lifeforms on the planet.

    How badly have worms have infected your brain when you honestly believe that Biden will bring you ANY of those things after 4 years of his administration loudly proclaiming, “best I can do is pretend that my hands were tied in helping US citizens in ANY way whatsoever. You’re lucky that I even pretend to pander.” and using his executive orders to send BILLIONS over there to help murder brown people and getting us into 7 wars?

    You think that if Biden gets elected, he’ll suddenly create this utopia when in reality, we’ll be pretty much just as fucked as we are under a Trump presidency. These two are really only different in their rhetoric if you look at what Biden is doing at the border to appease conservatives.

      you don’t understand the game, what i’m really saying, or you’re a russian bot.

      where did i make an argument for joe biden? what the actual fuck do you think i’m saying? and do you really believe there will be no difference between a biden presidency and a trump presidency? you’re a joke if so.

            What conversation?

            You implied that Trump will bring about the end of the world while everything will be sunshine and daisies if Biden wins (conveniently pretending that we don’t have 4 years of each to objectively compare them). I posted to laugh at you and that I disagree and you simply coudn’t take it and had to brigade me and call me names while not engaging me on any meaningful level. You’re really not coming off as incredibly intelligent yourself.

                You never said anything but posted a picture of Trump supporters and specifically cited the figures of Trump supporters. What you’re doing by denying that you were talking about Trump, ladies and gentlemen, is called gaslighting.

      You know a dude wrote this because someone AFAB woulda remembered the trump court did Dobbs before saying something as tone deaf as “just as fucked as we are under a trump presidency”

      Do you want to give him a chance to make it a unanimous SCOTUS to ban gay marriage this time? How many people who you’re conspicuously aware are ahead of you on the kill list have to be sacrificed before you accept that just letting it go full speed is a worse option than even one that only slows it down?
