dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in [email protected], it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

At this point the only electoralism I can support is specific candidates or maybe some kind of local movement

Entryism into the Democratic party on the national level was always a fools errand, the best you could ever hope to do would be take over the party at the state level in a red state where they're weak and even that's a long shot

Hi! I don't know what it is, but some weird site thing happened and your username showed up at the top right part of my screen as if I had "logged in" to ur account before the page loaded more and my own username popped up. Technology!

I think the closest thing to a state Dem party doing anything approaching acceptable is seen in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Both state Dem parties boldly stood for trans rights without any reach-across-the-aisle bullshit. Meanwhile, strong blue states like Maryland were very reluctant to do anything on trans rights when the issue first came up, and national Dems are predictably not supportive of trans rights (especially with KOSA and Biden's rule to maintain Selective Services registration for trans women as if they're men).

Highly recommend getting involved locally. Worst thing that happens is you make no real leeway politically but meet some cool people

Some of the coolest people I have met were locals who volunteer for the food bank and stuff like that. Not expressly political but benefits the community. They give a shit and that gives me hope in humanity.
