Image macros are memes and Twitter posts are basically image macros, right?

      You are contributing to “nothing will change” with comments like this. You should be encouraging people to use this energy to get involved and call their representatives demanding real change, instead you’re spending your time telling people “nOtHInG WilL cHAnGE” while advocating for NOTHING.

      It is good to have hope, I really think your life might be better if you try it sometime.

        Real change does not come from calling representatives, but from the working class organizing and forcing it. We have everything in the world to change, but it will not come from asking those who oppress us to deliver it to us.

        Nothing is achieved by telling you you’re wasting your time and energy by supporting Zionist establishment Democrats?

        You’re doing the opposite of achieving nothing, actively helping evil.

        “nothing will change” here refers to this election’s results. Libbing out implies thinking that you’re not politically involved beyond maybe voting. So of course you should stop libbing out if you want to improve things somewhat. That’s the context of this conversation.

        I agree it can help to point people in the right direction, especially if they ask you what they can do. That’s not the context of this conversation.
