Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

I hear it all the time. They'll tell you that if the Dems win it's only 'harm reduction' because it's not destroying capitalism completely. They will tell you that the New Deal doesn't count as progress because it stopped the real revolution from taking place. What they won't explain is why the revolution seems further and further away every day.
They also refuse to grapple with the reality that if their "Glorious Revolution" does happen then a significant amount of people are going to die in the disruption. As someone living below the poverty line caring for multiple disabled family members I don't appreciate being told that my family and I should literally risk starving to death because they can't be bothered to do the bare minimum.
Yes and a lot of those people will the ones who supported the revolution. After all, revolution, like Saturn, devours her children.
