class struggle
Basically explains how they keep us fighting, this is just the current hot button issue but they always have something to divide people

In fairness, the blonde woman is also in the cart while the brunette does all the pulling.
If you’ve got enough leisure to be a full-time TERF, you’re already living a charmed existence.
The grifter influencers sure, but plenty of hardworking paycheck-to-paycheck people who are otherwise uninvolved in politics get swept up into the hate pipeline. They’re directly targeted by a lot of the propaganda
And just like that, bigotry is the responsibility of both the bigot and the target of bigotry.
Play nice with bigots or you’re being divisive!
I don’t think that’s what’s meant. That would be the right interpretation if we were talking about a naturally emerging issue… the contention here would be this is a purposefully pushed culture war by those in power to distract from attacking the systems keeping them in power. That doesn’t put any blame on the victim, it’s just a statement of (alleged, though I agree with) fact that its purpose is to keep the masses fighting over cultural issues that ultimately aren’t as important to those in power as taxation, labor rights, ownership of production, etc.
It doesn’t suggest we’re wrong for fighting back. It’s suggesting that the aggressors are being manipulated by higher powers into fighting culture wars instead of looking at their material conditions a little too closely…
We saw this in the 2024 election. Trump attacked Harris about trans people. She responded with ashamed silence. The lesson the party took from this was not that it was a mistake to fall silent when people you support are under attack. The lesson they took away is that it was a mistake to support them in the first place.
Leaving trans people alone to weather the attacks didn’t make them stop. But at least no one fought for them. Can you imagine how divisive it might have been if the party had their backs?
Oooof ouch my bones
Don’t forget, ⅔ carriage pullers are temporarily embarrassed carriage owners.
The class conscious intersecting carriage pullers make up less than ⅓.Duplication isn’t replacement, it’s abundance.
When brown or jewish people become western, consider it a compliment. When someone adopts your gender, again, consider it a compliment.
Let people join your team damnit!
Tribalism is exhausting
Apparently that attitude gets you banned from the Comic Strips sub. Let’s see if this one is any better, lmao.
