Let's hear it for the working class |
|
How many of you motherfuckers actually have money problems? How many of you assholes work your ass off every week just to have problems with creditors? How many of you guys understand that our problems will not be solved by some "establishment" candidate.
The working class has within its power to halt American capitalism- just by refusing to comply. Some of yoiu dickheads have gotten fat off of concessions given by the man. But you're not really doing okay. You've got your pickup and your boat and your nice suburban house. But in reality you're buried in debt and just looking for a way out by playing the lottery every week.
Fuck all that shit. Organize- do not compromise.
This message brought to you by the socialist Droopies for America. Fuck the man!

They're not going to just give it to us. We have to take it.

You speak the truth, Droopy. Don't be content with the crusts that get tossed your way. Demand more. Make it happen.

Let our middle class brothers and sisters join the working class and the poor. Our interests are the same. You have nothing but your chains to lose!

9. Since the situation of the workers of all countries is the same |
|
, their interests the same, and their enemies the same, they must also fight together and confront the fraternity of the bourgeoisie of all nations with a fraternity of the workers of all nations."

Only it should be a fraternity and a sorority of the workers of all nations. This is a people problem and not a male one. I think women have a bigger beef with capitalism and should righteously demand equal treatment in concert with general working class values. Power to the people!

14. Well, since it was written in 1847 |
|
it's not really sexist. It's not about gender, unless you make it about gender, ie a college fraternity for men only.

Not so much in the political forums, but I've been here. I have a place of my own now and things are going as good as could be expected from a working class point of view in the current climate. How are you?

16. Excuse me? You're calling us "motherfuckers" and "assholes," and "dickheads," and |
|
you think we're going to respond to your lame "call to action?"
Stop drinking, dude, would you? Or at least stop posting after you've had a few, OK?
Calling people names is NOT a way to get them to join up with your crusade.

18. The use of expletives |
|
is actually a recognition of brotherhood. When I talk to my closest friend on messenger I say, "How ya doin' dickhead." When my cousin greets his fellow workers at the auto repair shop his way of saying good morning is by declaring "Fuck you!" and flipping the bird. It's meant as an equality sort of thing and not as a derogatory sort of thing. Sorry if I've offended your middle class sensibilities.

21. OK, that's fine, then. But one correction: I am NOT "middle-class." Also, I do remember |
|
the days when people gave each other greetings that weren't insults.
If that makes me an old fart in your eyes, so be it.

20. This is why I'm leaning towards John Edwards |
|
he may be a wealth fucker in his own right but he didn't start out that way.
From a July 27 speech Presidential candidate John Edwards wants to cut taxes on poor and middle-class Americans and raise taxes on wealthy people, who he said are not paying their share.
"Make it fair for everybody, so that everybody gets a chance," Edwards said in Des Moines on Thursday. "We need to reform our tax system to reward work instead of just rewarding investment."
The North Carolina Democrat said it's time to "show some backbone" and fight corporations and lobbyists who have twisted the tax system to favor rich people.
"It is rigged. You shouldn't doubt that for a second," he said. "Your democracy, your government is rigged."
