Well, she can feel like a good person taking people’s money and telling them to vote and campaign on behalf of a former segregationist and pro-lifer.

Liberals like this spend their whole lives losing politically because the free market allows them to still leech and grift off empire in some way. They do not care so long as they get their tenure, or their house, or their fancy regional district manager promotion. It’s pure self-interest and a complete lack of faith in anything else.

She should just get that MSNBC job and stop relying on popular support from Patreon. More freedom to speak her mind.

Amazing and very realistic strategy for keeping your basic rights: just have one party never lose!

Does having big sums of money always rot your brain away like this?

Why is it that so many socialists come from the middle or upper classes, then?

They seem quite detached from the conditons that would create socialists. Even Engles was a wealthy factory owner.

I entertain the thought that big sums of money don’t find their way into decent people’s pockets. How could you or I have the audacity to profit off of war? Not in the sense of having an investment in your 401k without realizing it, but to physically go to the middle east and sell arms to both sides of a conflict. You or I would never play the court system to increase the amount of oil you extract from mother Gaia. Therefore money never finds its way to us.

Natilie is, of course, not that bad. But those are my illustrative examples. For her, I wouldn’t even say she lacks empathy. I would be curious to the point of inquiry whether she has a lack of reference for the violence of poverty or the bloodthirsty psychosis of US foreign affairs. For example ask her about how she came to the conclusion that dems are at all the harm reduction party.

Impressive for Blue MAGA to have also come to the conclusion that Trump is still in charge
