I didn’t wear a poppy on November 11 for years and years, because I thought the military in general, and world wars in particular, were sickeningly idealised in British culture.
But I think I’ll start wearing one as a symbol of kicking the ever-loving shit out of some nazis.
my great-grandfather had to leave italy in the 20′s because he hit a fascist with a tuba, so if you think I am going to take this sitting down you are going to have to catch these hands and also this tuba
Fun story my Great Great Grandma left Germany in the 1920s because she had family in the US and could get citizenship pretty easily and once she was over in the US she then smuggled over 15 jewish families out by forging family documents so now my aunts are currently in the process of trying to tell the real ones from the fake ones because my great gran just died and there are legally over 100 surviving descendants but we know that math is a lil screwy.
Sometimes a family is you, your kids, your grandkids, your great grandkids, and the 15 Jewish families you helped smuggle out of Nazi Germany.
Excuse me, Women of America that are too apathetic to vote… Hello, Women of America that demand “the perfect left wing candidate and will vote for nothing less”, I have news for you…
They will not be satisfied until you are chained to a bed giving birth against your will.
OR
They can execute you for getting a back alley abortion.
You, American Woman, are not human to them. You are chattel. They believe that you are a farm animal. How far will you let them take it?
Vote blue, as if your future and the future of your daughters depend on it, because it does. Let nothing stop you! Register and vote in every election, local, as well as state and national. Democrats need a super majority to codify abortion as law. The radical SCOTUS be damned!
Pass it on!
Vote in every single thing on the ballot you can vote on. Not just national elections. Vote for your senator and house representative. Vote for your state legislature. Vote for your county commissioner. Vote for your school board member. Vote for mayor. Vote for sheriff. Every one of those matters.
Seriously, these conservative women-have-fewer-rights-than-goddamn-corpses types get their political starts somewhere.
Usually at the local level.
Vote in EVERY election, at EVERY level.
And if you’d rather vote conservative, understand that the “liberal” Democratic party is actually conservative-moderate compared to most other first-world nations.
The Republican Party is Fascist, not Conservative. It’s WAY past conservative and straight into authoritarianism, enslavement-by-another-nicer-sounding-name, and fascism, and they are doubling down to destroy this nation.
Your patriotic duty as a conservative is to conserve this nation. Conserve, protect, and defend it from domestic threats as well as foreign ones.
Not to destroy it.
It is time to remove the GOP. To scrape it out, pick it out, dredge it out, gouge it out, remove these treason-abetting filth from their positions of power.
We’ve been screaming warnings about these things happening for years. Some of you have been denying and decrying and saying “that’ll never happen!”
IT IS HAPPENING.
Which side will you be on?
Remember, if you do nothing to oppose them, that means you approve of what they are doing.
If you live in a red state, register as a republican so you can vote in their primary and try to swing them towards the lesser of two evils. Then just vote blue in the general election. Be a RINO if you’re in a red state, try and shove republicans at least in the general direction of sanity.
YES I LIKE THIS. It is time to play dirty. The GOP is too far gone and NEVER play fair. It is time to get subversive.
Look, I know we always say that voting doesn’t matter and in many instances, it really doesn’t because both parties will fuck you over.
But I like to see that some people are seeing through the bullshit. There is no “left-wing” in the US - even Bernie or Ocasio-Cortéz are not leftists. By choosing between DP and GOP, you are choosing between right and far-right; in other words, between imperialist capitalist and fascist. Don’t worry, the Dems will get there.
But hey, unless you’re in the cellar making fire bottles, do what’s in your power to show that you won’t let them take your rights away. Show the Hamdmaiden’s Tale fanfiction, that is the GOP, that they’re not gonna get away with it. Voting doesn’t do much but if you keep the GOP from Congress, you hit them to their most vulnerable spot - the wallet.
Just make sure you don’t stop there and do prepare the Molotovs
Americans with uteruses: Roe v Wade has been struck down and Republicans are going to go after birth control next. Some states have already banned Plan B and others are working to outlaw birth control entirely. Talk to your doctor ASAP about long term birth control options such as an IUD (lasts 3-12 years depending on the type), contraceptive implant (lasts 3 years), or tubal ligation (having your tubes tied - permanent birth control). You deserve to control your body and the direction of your life.
You know whats worse than our internet being fucked with?
83% of American citizens and 3 of 4 Republicans–despite the FCC being Republican run–voted against this bill. It passed. And as if blatantly proving that we do NOT have ANY say in our “democracy” wasn’t cause enough for a revolution (which is our constitutional right, not that they care), Ajit Pai the president of the FCC stooped to a despicable low by posting a video to the conservative site The Daily Caller openly mocking those of us who opposed it, with all the grace and professionalism of a 2 year old.
I’m a radical leftist and my usual fellow antifa are for some unfathomable reason not as enraged as I am. If we keep letting our freedoms get trashed, and now MOCKED, for fear of jail or not thinking we’ll make a difference, we will have no rights left eventually. I don’t know how to organize and rally and I’m anything but a leader, but i have to try. So this is a call to arms. If you wanna keep your rights, if you dont want to be treated like a pawn, a cog, lesser because of something as earth bound as corrupt politics, if your dignity as a human being matters to you at all, we gotta stir up some hell. I don’t mean protest, i mean black bloc, take direct action against the machinery of oppression. If you are about to say some liberal ass shit this isnt for you, this is for antifa, for the diy punk community, for those of us who would throw a molotov into a cops face just to show that there will always be people like us, and every empire will fall. Rome wasn’t burnt in a day but it couldn’t have been more than a week. If you are willing to help give one good effort it cannot possibly be wasted, even if defeated fighting for your right can not possibly be a waste.
Find me on facebook, Aoelaigh Finn (i got 2, my active one currently has a prof pic of me tatting myself) or my page Aoelaigh Finn - Starving Artist. I can’t be the only one, someone please help me rally
