Another fucking lib was lecturing me that the only choice I have is which guy I endorse to commit genocide and I broke down and listed all the shit I've done fighting for a better world my whole fucking life, all the trauma, all the pain, all the horror, all the hard work and sweat and tears and misery and frustration. And they just smugly replied "Oh yeah I'm very political myself I've seen people like you and we just let you pretend to be freedom fighters" and I hate them all so much.

I wish liberals would be forthcoming with how little of a shit they give. I wish they could be honest about how content they truly are. Politics are a game to them. Or it's a psychodrama they subject themselves to because it's part of their job.

None of them seem impacted by the policies they endorse, it's all a psychological purity contest for them. They have no meaningful context or involvement. It's a sport. It's defeating Voldemort by posting and having feelings.

I mean I'm not much better most of the time but at least I admit that my posting and posturing does exactly nothing. The only real things I get done is helping out at shelters and Food not Bombs. Liberals don't even do that. They think a sign in their front yard and watching the proper HBO shows will defeat president Drumpf

That shit does matter. From what I understand the majority of homeless people are homeless for relatively short periods of time before finding some kind of housing, even unstable or temporary housing. As awful as shelters can be, a few stable nights and some hot meals are the difference between short term and long term homelessness for some people. You're doing good work.
