He is a victim. A victim of the Democratic machine that said his life of criminality wasn’t his fault, it was whiteys. Re here are literally millions more like him who refuse to take accountability and blame all their life failures on “the white man.”

You really should change your imgflip name to "TriggeredByConservatives", otherwise we may all have to enjoin in a class action lawsuit to sue you for false advertising.

Lmao I’m not triggered, OP’s meme is just absolutely ridiculous and a blatant strawman.

He considered himself a victim! His actual lyrics of his raps blamed cops and Trump! You must own this sick mindset you set forward as a liberal who promotes blacks as victims! I have seen blacks as my betters in some cases and people I learned from. Libs see them ALL as victims! Sad and pathetic.

Most importantly, Brooks is not a victim for mowing down 50 people in Waukesha. Obviously.

I’m not a liberal.

I don’t promote black people as victims, I am simply able to recognize that our institutions are oppressive toward them and have exploited them for centuries. The system produces outcomes unfavorable to minorities and upholds inequality and keeps them marginalized.

Is it getting any better?

I would say that buying into that narrative is part of the problem for Black folks, or whatever other identity someone wants to use as an example. None of the Black people in my family act like they believe a word of that, and it's no coincidence that they're all pretty successful. Have they had a harder road than white folks? There's no doubt, yes.

So, I'm saying there's some truth to what you've posted. There is still a big problem with race in this country, but it's not ubiquitous, imo. What I am saying is those who lose the defeatist attitude will have their life improve immensely. And that applies to all aspects of negativity, not just racism.

Maybe it's just that most liberals are undeclared anarchists, but there appears to be no real difference between what you say you are and today's liberals.

btw- anyone that promotes anarchy is a fool. And an evil one at that. But that is probably what you were going for . . .

Liberals are pathetic reformists who still hold faith in capitalist institutions. I want to do away with capitalism and the state. If you can’t see the difference, you are clueless.

You want to do away with capitalism, which has lifted billions of people out of poverty, and the State which generally brings order to society, and I'm the clueless one?

You're a complete fool, so much so that you haven't the first clue just how clueless you are.

Laughable at best, dangerous at worst, and evil- most certainly. Your cute little idea of no rules would likely take you out in the first few months. The only people that can afford to dream of the end of capitalism, are those who live in the comforts that capitalism affords them.

What a good little simp you are for capital. Even believing their lies. Newsflash, poverty is INCREASING in the capitalist countries.

The modern state has only served to lay out private property, produce inequalities and leave a propertyless class dependent on the rich propertied class. The order you speak of is called “class rule”, which keeps poor resisters suppressed and dispossessed.

Anarchists believe in no rulers, and an end to laws enforced by the police, judge and prison warden. That doesn’t mean we are without rules or order, we are simply without coercion.

Nothing about government or capitalism have left me with a comfortable existence. Once I get a place of my own, I will barely be getting by because of my wages and doing school part-time (that’s what I’m supposed to do to appease the capitalists for them to pay me more, right?)

"Nothing about government or capitalism have left me with a comfortable existence. Once I get a place of my own, I will barely be getting by because of my wages and doing school part-time (that’s what I’m supposed to do to appease the capitalists for them to pay me more, right?)"

You are an absolute idiot to think that your position in life will improve under the system you propose, but I suspected that this was your motivation for wanting to turn to anarchy. Poor widdle you, the universe isn't set up to meet your every demand and whim.

Fortunately, most people are not as stupid, so there is no chance for your ideas to be implemented.

Here's an idea- work hard and put yourself on the other side of the equation. That's the beauty of capitalism- anyone can move themselves upward. But you can be certain of this- so long as you continue to whine like a little baby, you will be flipping burgers for the rest of your miserable, whiny little life. LOL.

The school you are going to was built by capitalism, and the moronic teachers that have likely contributed to your absurd world view are making loads of money- also capitalism.

And the electric that lights, heats and/or cools that school? Capitalism.
The electronic device you are typing out this nonsense? Capitalism.
The clothes you wear? Capitalism.

And so on. It is unreal how stupid people are who think they know something. How did you get to be this way?

“I will struggle just to make ends meet” “NO ONE HAS TO MEET YOUR EVERY DEMAND!!” My demand — an existence? Wow you are a buffoon.

It is a myth that working harder moves you up the social ladder. The 1% own more wealth than the middle 60%, effectively dissolving the middle class (if you look at wealth distribution, the middle and working classes are almost indistinguishable next to the 1%). The current generation is earning less than their parents. Wages have not kept up with inflation, but profits sure have. Globally, workers don’t believe working hard will result in a better life. Your system is a joke and your capitalist propaganda isn’t fooling me.

The college I attend is a public institution. Teachers are public employees funded by taxpayers, as are the various custodians that keep the building running. Most clothes are produced overseas in China, which is market socialist, or in countries where capitalists can exploit cheap sweatshop labor (so great, right?)

I find it so funny that right wingers think socialism won’t produce any goods, which historically has been proven very obviously false.

"and have no real arguments."

That's because I have already won the argument. You continue to read and reply on a device that was provided to you via capitalism.

Reality is my argument.
Living indoors with indoor plumbing is my argument.

You lost before you got started, your theories notwithstanding.

I hope you don’t drive on the socialist roads, enter any socialist parks or ever have to call the socialist fire department or use your socialist social security benefits. Since I’m such a hypocrite for owning a phone made under the capitalist system that dominates the earth.
0 ups, 3y
The roads, parks, and fire departments are not socialist. You do not understand what Socialism is.

Whatevs, dork. You have been, and will continue to take advantage of the things that come from capitalism. Nothing you said puts ANY of it outside of the workings of capitalism.

"It is a myth that working harder moves you up the social ladder." And yet, here I am. I am nowhere near the 1%, but I am solidly in the alleged missing middle class. You must live in one of the major Democrat enclaves where the cost of living is sky high thanks to Democrat policies.

"Globally, workers don’t believe working hard will result in a better life."
First, you aren't bright enough to know that with any certainty, aside from I suppose the Communist/Anarchist tripe you digest, lol. Most normal people know from personal experience that what you have said here is utter nonsense. Perhaps one day when you grow up and actually have some life experience, you will figure this out.

"funded by taxpayers"
And where, pray tell, do those tax payers get the money to pay those taxes? Seriously, you are stupid. That is not meant as an insult- it is an observation based on the obvious.
That many clothes are made in a country that does not promote capitalism does not negate the benefits of a country that does.

And yes, of course Socialism promotes producing goods . . . at the end of a gin barrel. THAT is something that history proves over and over again. And Socialism is anything but Anarchy, so why would a "brilliant" anarchist like yourself bring it into the discussion?

You're young and stupid, which is basically true of every human being at some point in their lives. The key to success is to grow up one day. Get back to me when you have finally moved out of your mommy's basement. btw- It's not every day that one can make that statement with complete certainty, so thank you for sharing that bit.

You just keep calling me stupid when you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about and have no real arguments.

By the way, I was citing a global survey. Not only did a majority say working hard won’t result in a better life, they said capitalism does more harm than good.

I brought up socialism because anarchism is a socialist philosophy. Surprised a genius like you didn’t know that. Proudhon was a mutualist who believed in socialist freed markets. Peter Kropotkin was an anarcho-communist, just like Nestor Makhno and Emma Goldman. Anarchism is inherently anti-capitalist and anti-state.

I like how you tease, “when you move out of mommy’s basement” after I literally just told you I’m moving into a place of my own. So, guess I’ll get back to you next week.
