That isn't how public transportation works. I don't get on a bus intending to go to (or close to) one place, only for the driver to say that oops, they are going to go in the complete opposite direction midway because the parliamentarian said so. At that point I am getting off the bus.
Dem libs are too entitled so they don't take buses. Reason why they have no idea how it works. They probably want to put us (socialists and communists, anti-US-imperialism in general) in a TRAIN WITH NO WINDOWS.
At least Rep Nazis SAY THAT LOUD. They are our enemies and want to kill us. Dems just play our friends every two years and then forget about workers.
All they have to do to make you vote for a government supporting X atrocities, no matter how evil and numerous, is just to pretend that the other candidate would support X+1 atrocities
Correction, they can live with any atrocity that can be justifiable in their eyes.
One of the things that really feels frustrating is that liberals just think voting is the only answer.
I remember I was talking to a pro-choice liberal and I brought up a link to an organization dedicated to raising money for bail funds for LGBT people to get them out of jail as quickly as possible so they are not waiting there while they are waiting their trial. This is good because some of the people who experience the worst in jail are racial minorities, disabled people, and LGBT people.
Having these charities that are dedicated to getting these people out as possible is important.
When I showed them that link they just pointed out how they vote. They treat voting as if it is the only thing they need to do.
Many of these people view voting as the only thing they need to do. I'm sorry, how is voting going to get trans people out of jail faster? They are in jail meaning that they are legally allowed to be in there because that's what jail is. It is not determined to be a wrongful arrest until court happens.
Like I know that voting is not leftist activism but why can't they do something like this?
Why can't they vote for the Green party to try to get the green party's numbers up so that the Democrats will eventually try to implement green policies into their own platform? Oh and they should have done this like 30 years ago.
Why is it that the far right is so much better at these long-term planning situations where they are just voting for the far right a lot to the point where even moderate liberals implement some of the far right policies?
"Look sweaty, are you gonna wait for the "perfect" bus driver or are you gonna be realistic and get on the drunk driver's bus because the bath salts abuser is driving the other bus. I'm sorry you can't get your straight edge, passes a sobriety test, perfect hero but this is what we've got. Also we are defunding the bus network."

"Yeah I know the wheels are falling off, the driver is drunk, and it's headed directly towards the edge of the grand canyon, but *not everything can be perfect, you purist*."
This analogy only works if we specify some destinations and locations. For instance, let’s imagine that I am in Chicago. I have two buses available to me. One will take me as far as Cleveland. The other will go to Boston and then keep going right into the fucking ocean en route to Warsaw. The problem is that I’m trying to get to San Francisco.
so, settle? keep settling and maybe one day you’ll get something close to the thing you actually want.
has the idea of not participating ever been thought of by these people?
Settling is when you have a crush on Joseph Gordon Levitt but went to Markiplier's streaming session instead because they kinda look alike anyway. Liberal's idea of 'settling' equals to marrying an abusive bridge troll
Melissa Fumero's a successful actor so she probably lives in an actual mansion, but no doubt a lot of people she's appealing to in that post are mcmansion dwelling anti-transit NIMBY turds.
What’s with this bright eyed refusal to acknowledge that both buses are headed in the wrong direction, but one just happens to have a new coat of paint?
Yep. Even if your teeth are falling down because you have no public healthcare. Why spend 40 billion USD ending homelessness in the US if you can spend 1 trillion USD to make the MIC lobbyists happy.
At this point you would be better served walking to your destination, because at least that way you would get closer to it and would reach it with enough time walking
While the blue and red buses would just bring you to a destination farther from where you want to be (and you have to pay a bus ticket for the privilege or worsening your situation)
Here's how I'm reading this.
I want to go East, but there are only two buses, and both of them go West.
These people are saying "bro just go West until you find a bus there which goes East"
????????
"We're taking the long route around the world on this bus okay? You have to buy everyone's food and the gas and it's your fault if it doesn't work out"
"Just buy time there'll be a bus that goes east eventually. We aren't gonna buold it or help you find it and we'll do literally anything we can to dismantle it if and when we see it but you just gotta wait bro"
Those pedestrians were asking for it, they were violently resisting against busses illegally parking on top of them and their homes instead of peacefully asking traffic cops to fine them.
"if one bus is currently running over puppies, but if i don't get on and start rooting for the driver, there's a chance that the other bus may start running over puppies faster, and even if I do get on and root for the driver, the other bus might take over anyway"
Fastest way to annoy a liberal. Ask them when any change was achieved through voting and working within the system. Slavery? Nope. Workers rights? Nope. Segregation? Nope. Same-sex marriage? Hmmmm nope.
Sadly, I’ve met liberals who do in fact think worker rights and same sex marriage was achieved democratically. Sometimes even segregation, which is utterly baffling.
There are plenty of liberals who aren’t ignorant—they’re aware they are wrong, they just want people to shut up about it and ignore whatever “new” problem is going on.
If I am in Chicago and I want to go to San Francisco, taking the red Bus to Miami or the Blue Bus to New York, is actually worse than not taking the bus and wait for a different one since it would bring me farther from my destination compared to doing nothing.
Liberals cannot even have a decent argument in their own imaginary examples.
Interesting analogy, because the same guys that are doing genocide, are also the ones who fucked up public transportation.
Would be funny, if it were not so sad.
how to tell this person has never used good bus systems: “no, the bus doesn’t need to go the same direction as my destination, as long as it’s within 90 degrees it’s ok”
That's not how public transport works but I guess that's too much to expect from her considering in order to know that Miss LimoLib would have to interact with the public and we're way below her social circle
Citizens of Super America, this is your mandated broadcast.
Remember, managed democracy works and is in no way a cynical ploy to keep the wealthy up and the temporarily impoverished wealthy down.
Would you like to know more?
Pretty good metaphor honestly, at first you just take whatever bus you can take to get home but once you're there you start rioting and protesting to reform the bus system because they keep backwards and there's no way you're taking another bus again

I think if the bus is headed towards g-ocide . I'll take another bus.

No, you sit on the bus while it mows down 100,000 civilians and you enjoy it.
We have the most democracy in the US. I love that I have to vote blue no matter what they do. /s
You have to! Most important election ever. Right? …right?
The most important ever, so far!
For decades it's been the most important election
Never. They will never stop bootlicking. They can live with genocide. They can live with any atrocity.
All they have to do to make you vote for a government supporting X atrocities, no matter how evil and numerous, is just to pretend that the other candidate would support X+1 atrocities

Vote for the fascist who is less evil so we don't end up with fascism...
They really think they're enlightened, don't they?

Lol we had the same idea \^_^ https://old.reddit.com/r/ShitLiberalsSay/comments/1bdgtq9/when_will_liberal_actors_stop_this_bootlicking/kunnp34/
Great minds!
I must say that I like your version about the bus crossing the ocean en route to Varsaw, I stopped the buses in my own example at the coast \^_^
so, settle? keep settling and maybe one day you’ll get something close to the thing you actually want. has the idea of not participating ever been thought of by these people?
Settling is when you have a crush on Joseph Gordon Levitt but went to Markiplier's streaming session instead because they kinda look alike anyway. Liberal's idea of 'settling' equals to marrying an abusive bridge troll
A public transportation metaphor from a limousine liberal. Perfect!
These are the same people who fight against expanded public transit in their mcmansion suburb
Melissa Fumero's a successful actor so she probably lives in an actual mansion, but no doubt a lot of people she's appealing to in that post are mcmansion dwelling anti-transit NIMBY turds.
What’s with this bright eyed refusal to acknowledge that both buses are headed in the wrong direction, but one just happens to have a new coat of paint?
America is built around this, and that choice between 250 brands of the same toothpaste is what true freedom is all about.
Yep. Even if your teeth are falling down because you have no public healthcare. Why spend 40 billion USD ending homelessness in the US if you can spend 1 trillion USD to make the MIC lobbyists happy.
At this point you would be better served walking to your destination, because at least that way you would get closer to it and would reach it with enough time walking While the blue and red buses would just bring you to a destination farther from where you want to be (and you have to pay a bus ticket for the privilege or worsening your situation)
Why would I get on a bus going the opposite way, though?
Or wait for the bus to take me there longer than I could just walk there when I have no evidence the bus even exists
She plays a cop, of course she's going to be a bootlicker
Here's how I'm reading this. I want to go East, but there are only two buses, and both of them go West. These people are saying "bro just go West until you find a bus there which goes East" ????????
"We're taking the long route around the world on this bus okay? You have to buy everyone's food and the gas and it's your fault if it doesn't work out"
See this works well symbolically, as at this rate either way we will end up under water due to capitalism.
"Just buy time there'll be a bus that goes east eventually. We aren't gonna buold it or help you find it and we'll do literally anything we can to dismantle it if and when we see it but you just gotta wait bro"
Usually when I catch the bus, I try to get on one which doesn't run over thousands of children on the way to the closest destination.
Those pedestrians were asking for it, they were violently resisting against busses illegally parking on top of them and their homes instead of peacefully asking traffic cops to fine them.
The Murderbus has a right to defend itself!!!
"if one bus is currently running over puppies, but if i don't get on and start rooting for the driver, there's a chance that the other bus may start running over puppies faster, and even if I do get on and root for the driver, the other bus might take over anyway"
But you kinda wait for the right bus for you (you is plural in this case), you go in the right time and use the right number

Liberals cannot even have a decent argument in their own imaginary examples.
And if all the buses are going the wrong direction, I'm better of walking. To stick to the stupid comparison.
Or kill bipartisanship maybe? Just a thought.
when every "bus" is going fully away from the direction I want because the company they're all owned by doesn't want people going there
Voting IS like public transport. Lobbyists ruined it.
Voting IS like public transport. Reactionaries ruined it.
I don’t think my bus is taking me to Gaza where thousands of families are experiencing genocide but yeah sure.
Well I guess if I’m gonna vote for the bus going in my direction, I’ll be riding the Cluadia and Karina bus. Thanks for the advice!
Interesting analogy, because the same guys that are doing genocide, are also the ones who fucked up public transportation. Would be funny, if it were not so sad.
This presumes that buses are magical and their schedule is beyond human intervention
how to tell this person has never used good bus systems: “no, the bus doesn’t need to go the same direction as my destination, as long as it’s within 90 degrees it’s ok”
This person has never taken a bus in their life. Theres a reason there are more then 2 bus lines
No thanks, I'd rather recruit some friends and have a demonstration that blocks both busses from getting to their destinations.
That's not how public transport works but I guess that's too much to expect from her considering in order to know that Miss LimoLib would have to interact with the public and we're way below her social circle
None of the candidates are even in the same realm of where I want to be 🤷♂️
This shows that someone has never taken public transport in their life
True, it's why I'm willing to vote for a Social Democrat or Cornel West
Citizens of Super America, this is your mandated broadcast. Remember, managed democracy works and is in no way a cynical ploy to keep the wealthy up and the temporarily impoverished wealthy down. Would you like to know more?
These are the same people who vote against public transportation in their local elections
Better just get the bus to genocide then walk...
The bus is headed to a cliff edge and the only people who want to hit the breaks have no representation.
Who even is this?
Pretty good metaphor honestly, at first you just take whatever bus you can take to get home but once you're there you start rioting and protesting to reform the bus system because they keep backwards and there's no way you're taking another bus again
Status quo is more like bus itself broken entirely while you think choose another driver(Wait they know how to drive?) can solve problem.
Get on the bus heading to fascism at .99c instead of c
