For those on the left, the oppressed person in this image is the guy about to be crushed by the tank. Anything else you can say is gaslighting. In fact, Lebrun lecturing others and supporting a tyrannical communist government IS gaslighting. He sold out.

Either you are a tax payer or a tax burden.

No middle ground.

WookieMan says

Activism against what? There's more opportunity out there than there ever has been. People can bitch all they want, they're just wasting their time

We had the best economy, the most opportunity, the lowest unemployment. Then the China virus was released to disrupt it all. China found a way to oppress the whole world and empower the globalists to bring more oppression. Who is oppressed? We all are, by the lies of mainstream globalist media.

jazz_music says

America has plenty of law enforcement, prosecutors and prison cells for those who loot a Whole Foods, but none for those who loot the public treasury, commit stock market swindles or financial fraud on a monumental scale. Not only did no one go to prison for the rampant institutionalized fraud of the 2008 looting, a.k.a. the Global Financial Meltdown--the looters were bailed out by the Federal Reserve and Treasury.

Why doesn’t the globalist media shout this 24-7?

Oh, that would expose them! It doesn’t fit the narrative.

marcus says

guess you could argue that those urban democrat leaders are the ones that need to lead with the changes that need to occur with police hiring, training etc., but it's more likely to happen if this needs to be something that the entire culture is behind.

How is it you know this? I’m really curious.

marcus says

Not saying it's definite, but what you're trying to do with the politics is an absurd stretch.

Are elected leaders not the ones that appoint police chiefs and come up with policy and procedure for departments? They hire the attorneys to review this stuff? I don't think NoCoup is off all that much. They cannot control every employee obviously, but they created their own barriers with unions and their own policies to terminate dip shit cops. This guy had multiple complaints, but their own policies made it impossible to get him the fuck out.

This incident should have never happened in the first place, so it doesn't matter the politics of the ONE individual kneeling on a dudes neck. Guy should have been canned and Democratic and left policies theoretically could be to blame for the death of Floyd. The left loves their unions as they completely fuck over the general public and give us all shit services and entrenched cronies that can't lose their jobs. Public sector unions should be outlawed tomorrow.

Patrick says

Absolutely. The outsourcing of almost all US manufacturing to China and insourcing of tens of millions of illegals is the basis of their fortunes, and they are trying hard to make sure it continues by attempting to get rid of Trump.

@Patrick, you forgot constant bailing out of mega-rich losers at the expense of taxpayers. tRUMP did that also with the last bailouts, following in footsteps of Bush and Obama...

t was, in fact, abandoned, but not by choice: less than an hour before Trump's arrival, armored police used tear gas to clear hundreds of peaceful demonstrators from Lafayette Square park, which is across the street from the church.

So credibility doesn’t matter when selecting “news” articles to cite?

WookieMan says

Does not matter if mayor appointed police chief, and does not matter if Ms Klobuchar refused to press charges when Chauvin shot an unarmed Hispanic guy, it is ORANGEMAN BAD who is still responsible...

Real dumb for these people to destroy their own neighborhood n businesses.

In few months they will complain why there are no jobs, n facilities in their area, and why no one invests there.

So if 100 billionaire are taking money then attack them or convince them to donate back with projects in their area and promise to never burn or destroy it. When Obama was president, they still had same issues and nothing happened to rich. No tax or any action taken against them. Rich run the politician so nothing will change for them. These dumb people think that destroying small businesses is going to help.
There are racist cops and they need to be addressed, when I get a ticket I hate them too . They are there to prevent n protect.

Pat We should develop are u racist quiz and sell it to many groups with possible solution and team building activity.

This is the basis of most of the crap we have to live through today. We can argue all day who is wrong, who is right, or if ORANGEMAN is BAD or ORANGE JESUS, but the mega-rich 0.01% looting everything, failing, andbeing bailed out by corrupt bipartisanship is the single important underlying problem.

Cons wrong yet again.

"Sweden's death rate has risen to one of the highest in the world, significantly higher than its Nordic neighbours which locked down early and have similar health care, political systems, and population density.

As of Tuesday, the country of around 10 million people has more than 4,400 deaths.

Per capita, that's more than 4.5 times the rate in Denmark and more than nine times the rate in Norway."

https://www.businessinsider.com/coronavirus-sweden-rushes-launch-no-lockdown-assessment-inquiry-deaths-mount-2020-6

These were people that were probably going to die anyway within the next year. Time table just expedited. Deaths matter, but so do the demographics and overall health of those dying matter equally as much. This isn't some scary Hollywood pandemic.

thomasdong1776 says

Cons

Huh? Swedes are "cons" now? What happened to "beautiful working Socialism"?

4,000 is nothing.
Democrat lockdowns are the worst policy idea in generations.

jazz_music says

The only way is activism.

Against oligarchy.

Bottom line.

So elect Biden and Hillary!
They represent the oligarchs, take their money and implement their policies against the people.
Bbbbut they’re Democrats!
So yeah!
LOL!

thomasdong1776 says

4400 out of 10 million is 0.05%.

If you are that afraid of death, you should ban yourself from cars (which kill 35,000 to 50,000 every year in the US alone), ban yourself from using electricity, ban yourself from hospitals (which kills 100,000 American each year with contagious diseases acquired there, and likely higher number from malpractice), and ban yourself from swimming.

And Swedes aren't currently burning down all of their cities with 3 months of pent up anger from being unemployed and stuck at home.

Seven times the SF Bay Area death rate from COVID-19.

APOCALYPSEFUCKisShostakovitch says

If the facts do not stop lying, the facts will be deported.

Who is anti-democracy?

The Remainers in the UK
Those refusing to "normalize" Trump, a duly elected President
Those complaining about those "Not listening to Experts", though the COVID fuckup (if not financial crisis) should do away with that bogus claim.

Etc.

It's the Media-Academia-Big Tech complex that is anti-democratic and pro Oligarchy.

So? Learn about population density and comorbidites as well as avg. population age.

Sweden's death rate is below Spain, UK, Belgium, etc. all of which shutdown. The UK is just about starting to maybe loosen a little.

We go through this over and over again.

The very slow bounceback from the worst recession in almost a century isn't much of an accomplishment.

Pushing well beyond IS an accomplishment, it's much harder.

Tenpoundbass says

That's the Climate Change Chart with different labels.

Sad thing is that's true,...for some people.

They don't want to know.

NoCoupForYou says

it's much harder.

Yeah it costs trillions

marcus says

Yeah it costs trillions

Whereas Obama had to double the deficit to get tepid return to normalcy, followed by a 2-3 year plateau, and only started going back up when Trump announced he was running.

I jumped to page three to get past off of the recent holier than thou content over the last few weeks.
And found the fan page for the whole Democrat Primaries.
Why would a Religion mag be covering the Democrat primaries like they Jeff Bezos?
Why would that rag be so political party biased, when Religion has no such bias.

Most Episcopagan Leaders, like most Reform Jewish Rabbis or Unitarian-Universalist Charlatans, aren't religious leaders. They're Socialists.

The great news is that only Old Hippies remain in these denominations.

Let me be clear: Any pastor who is more upset that Caesar is defending Churches, than at the Antichrists who attacked it, is a servant of some Worldly Philosophy rather than Jesus.

https://thinkprogress.org/trump-job-boom-actually-the-fewest-number-of-jobs-created-in-the-last-6-years-0465cb9b54c2/

During his presidential campaign, Donald Trump promised he’d be the “greatest jobs president God ever created.”

Yeah, it's all BS. The statistics the government uses to calculate all this is garbage.

If you can't find a job in 6 months - guess what? You're not unemployed!

jazz_music says

(sigh)

How do you fail to realize that calling the "news" media "fake news" and getting at least 1/2 of the country to understand this is true helps to undermine the oligarchy?

That is the most powerful tool they have - the ability to manufacture consent. That's gone.

How do you fail to realize that showing the department of justice, and the intelligence agencies are corrupt helps to undermine the oligarchy?

They are the enforcers.

You understand that it's not left/right - I'm in complete agreement. Where we disagree is that Trump is a "Republican". He's not even really a Democrat. He's a bull in a very fancy china shop and all the fine china - is the apparatus of the oligarchy.

I don't expect him to fix problems, but it would be nice if he did - I expect him to expose problems and he's doing that just fine.

Like him, hate him - who cares? He is your ally IF you really want to dismantle and expose the oligarchy.

The total deaths are not yet known everywhere.

Maybe Sweden got them sooner, while other places will get it later.

Add it all up and it might be the same.

Of course, NY governor Cuomo sending infected people to nursing homes might have caused a little bump in dead over there.

We won’t know enough to applaud or condemn their response to the virus for at least a year. There are too many unknowns including the possibility that herd immunity in non-lockdown areas will mean the majority of deaths are in the past while lack of herd immunity in lockdown areas means the majority of deaths are yet to be realized but may begin to mount as months turn to years due to lack of herd immunity in those lockdown areas.

Tim Aurora says

Lebron is the opressed and Trump is the Opressor and talking about violence ( the only leader to do so).

HAHAHA HAHAHA!!!!!! Nominated.

Tim Aurora says

OK, I get it now. I agree with image but it was out of context for this topic. With Trumpsters posting weird stuff, I was unable to connect.

There's nothing to connect. The image has nothing to do with Trump. It has nothing to do with "Trumpsters" as you say. It has everything to do with the average person about to get smashed while being lectured by a rich piece of shit that is a puppet himself and doesn't even know it. He's telling you that you're an idiot, while he himself is an idiot. You don't understand the tank Tim. That's the problem.

According to Joe Biden he wasn’t black

Tim your head might explode, but Trump also agreed with protesters, but not the looters.

They probably don’t show that on leftist sites you visit.
