Add disabled people to this list, homeless people, just so many of us who would suffer under a facist.
Pretty sure the homeless one should be on both ends of the track
In a sense very true.
However Trump’s proposals would make being homeless even worse, while Harris’s would make it somewhat better (although way less than is needed).
So I still stand by my categorisation.
Nuance is unacceptable. There is only utopia and hell.
Some people really think like that ahaha.
“Both parties are the same”…
Tell that to the people who’se families would get deported, to the women who lose reproductive rights, to the Ukrainians relying on our support to fight off an imperial aggressor, to the poor elderly and disabled people on social security…
If both parties are the same to you, you’re likely in a position of privilege.
Tell that to my friend in lebannon whose parents are getting bombed with white phosphorus. How privileged /s
Literally this but without the /s
A Trump presidency will be disastrous for Gaza and Lebanon. If you actually have a friend there, and give a single shit about their future, you will vote for Harris.
What the hell are you talking about? Basically the American establishment has been Pro Israel since it's inception. You have a two party system that treats this as the air America breathes effectively speaking you aren't and never were going to be voting about the stance of Israel in this election. If you want that you need to organize and fight like hell and you should but there is nothing anyone can say or do to change the election promises on the table right now. If they could, they already would have.
But that means that you are still voting for something. You are voting for everything else on the table. In your country's case, your chance to actually have elections in another four years.
You have noble concerns but you are letting them blind you to the reality here. This election is important. Republicans have spend decades rigging the game so they need less voters to win and their candidates have started spewing outright Nazi rhetoric. While your veiw is in the distance the wolf is in the grass in front of you. You need to deal with this first if you want your country not to not remove your personal power to influence it further... And I'm not inferring elections, I mean other forms of resistance.
Also, watch as I disappear for four years, and then reappear only to whine about the state of the Democratic Party and how they didn't pander to my progressive ass enough.
Then disappear again for another four years...
I'd actually say not really, democratic proposals for urbanism would significantly help ð unhoused even on ð more NIMBY end of ð spectrum.
homeless people need a flag
Actually, they need a home. Common misconception. Flags are indeed not homes.
Pretty sure they need houses
But for comical effect I found this https://www.walmart.com/ip/Homelessness-Awareness-Month-USA-Flag-T-Shirt/5628172427
Walmart selling that is just rich
In the early days of the IWW, many of the Wobblies were hobos. So maybe you could say that the IWW cat is a homeless icon.
There isn't enough space in the frame for the flags that represent all of the people who get stomped on by fascism.
My favorite one is missing! Political Dissidents AND party members deemed a nuisance!
