(486 posts)Reps have social media. We do not. What do we have, Meidas? Yes, but they have Rogan. Asmongold. Shapiro. Stuckley. Walsh. Knowles. ShoeOnHead. Nuxanor. Chelzor. The list goes on and on and on and on. No, they don't have 50 M views each, but each and every one has 10m and it all adds up. With titles like "Leftists are evil". and "Why I left the left" and "The Left wants war".
And then you have all the reaction videos which often garner millions more views than the original video of any of those folks.
I mean shit, we had a pro-Kirk/Conservative rally in Ireland and another in the Phillipines and yet another in Japan for Godssake. In the meantime, what are we doing?
People look at the modern Dem party and wonder why there's no opposition, why "Charlie Kirk" day was "Unanimously" approved (Yes, I'm aware that it was a resolution and not an active vote but that's what social media sez,) and we're perceived as weak. Helpless. Meek. Spineless.
And even here, we have people saying "B-b-b-but we're out of power, we can't do anything! We're poor, helpless, meek, weak little babies!"
You can vote against stuff. It doesn't matter that it won't "do" a damn thing, if we oppose them, we defy them. We can take a stand. We can make our stance known in a way the world can understand and see outright. If we blindly vote "Yes" to what the Reps are offering, then fall back and say "We had no choice!" we're no better than the Nazis running the government, and all the fuckers who say "But we were just doing what we had to!" may as well be saying "We were just following orders!".
Silence is complicity. Acquiescence is abetting. And I'm tired of saying otherwise.
