Has there ever been a more perfect avatar? You win.

And here's Chula to give the ol' anti-Frown pep talk.

Another spot on avatar.

Whether you like it or not, someone is going to be president. A party is going to determine how we live. What is legal. What our environment is going to be like in 20 years. Which economic class gets ****ed the most.

Be like Hawk and bitch and moan until you are blue in the face. Ain't going to amount to **** at the end of the day. Just pissing in the wind. Need a towel Hawk?

Or take your tiny slice at making a minor difference in your world and the world of those you care about.

Like I said, make a choice or SHUT THE **** UP. You are wasting oxygen.

You know what’s really funny? You’re actually more hateful than I am.

Your idea of anarchism is Chula and you will absolutely be a SoCal democrat in ten years because you have as much integrity as any 20-year-old who likes punk rock.

Have you ever noticed anything about our current system?

Who do you think are going to be your masters when you are making all these concessions to capitalists?

No but they’re equally complicit in destroying natural habitats for profit. The mass extinctions of marine life, rain forest life, and decimation of the world’s rivers come from the policy of profits before all else which in full force by both parties.

Would the Dems have repealed the Clean Power Plan?

Both parties will dig up and burn every ounce of fossil fuel in the earth. No difference.

^ I don't agree with these answers. Firstly, no-one is suggesting that the Dems can save the world, secondly, the Dems have more environmentally-friendly policies. Isn't that why the GOP are always grumbling about Obama-style restraints on industry?

Would the Dems have condoned the alt-right?

No, they keep their racism more disguised.

^ This is an example of failing to value the distinction between bad and very bad. The fact is that disguised racism is much better than blatant racism, as many victims would attest, I'm sure.

Watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence and
So the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're going through

But you guy's know everything.

You mean owning the Capitol or controlling capital?

You know I oppose private property and I’m against any form of monetary system at all. I’m against money existing so don’t try to paint me as some part of the right.

You’re a straightforward liberal. There’s no shame in that but you’re not even close to being an anarchist.
