    We do live in a world where the majority are left. It’s just that left voters don’t all tend to vote because a lot aren’t fearing for their lives like right wing media makes right leaning people believe. It’s that and a combination of legal voter fraud that the right has done to stay in power even though, at least in the US, there’s significantly more left people.

    The last 30 years of reaching across the isle hasn’t worked. Fuck them.

    Do you think mlk and the black panthers achieved what they did purely by being nice and polite? Or did the black panthers have to march around with their legal guns out to help affect change.

    Do you think ghandi truly liberated India by just fasting and allowing himself to get beat up? Ghandi and his group may not have done violence but his contemporaries definitily did in the name of liberation and it’s in part thanks to them instilling that fear that ghandi was able to succeed.
