How is that even a question that needs asking.

A new election cycle filled with empty promises from corrupt politicians changes none of the Democratic Party’s historical record. And yet, it is sort of amazing how fast liberals forget that it has been Democrats, in concert with Republicans, who have:

Led the attack on the working class by neoliberalizing healthcare and education

Slashed social safety nets like food stamps which impacted millions of at-risk families

Secured legislation which drastically expanded the prison industrial complex and produced a new system of Jim Crow

Approved and expanded private detention centers where forced labor has become normalized

Deported more undocumented people and have had some of the most punitive immigration policies

Started the deregulation of Wall Street that eventually tanked the economy

Continued U.S. military expansion throughout the Middle East and Africa through drones strikes that kill thousands

“In the US, there is basically one party – the business party. It has two factions, called Democrats and Republicans, which are somewhat different but carry out variations on the same policies.” – Noam Chomsky

If you are going to defend evil, be honest about it and stop calling it progress.

After watching presidential debates Colin Kaepernick called it embarrassing. It’s unfair that we must choose between “proven liars” who “were trying to debate who was less racist” and who don’t care about Blacks at all.

It’s unfair! I don’t want to ruin America by voting for any of them.

I LEARNED RECENTLY THAT PLATO WON THE GOLD MEDAL IN THE OLYMPICS FOR WRESTLING THREE TIMES. THIS PUTS A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THINGS. I ALWAYS IMAGINED PLATO TO BE FRAIL AND MISSHAPEN BUT HE MUST HAVE BEEN FRICKEN RIPPED. I WONDER IF ARISTOTLE EVER FELT ANXIETY ABOUT GETTING PHYSICALLY (I.E. NOT JUST METAPHYSICALLY) DISMANTLED BY PLATO. PLATO WAS PROBABLY PISSED OFF BY AT LEAST A HANDFUL OF QUESTIONS ARISTOTLE ASKED HIM. ARISTOTLE WAS A LITERAL GENIUS TOO. IMAGINE PLATO LECTURING AND WRITING ON A BLACKBOARD AND ARISTOTLE THROWING A COMMENT OUT THERE ABOUT SOME COMPLEX MISSTEP IN PLATO’S LOGIC AND PLATO’S CHALK JUST SNAPS AND ARISTOTLE’S TESTICLES SUCK WAY BACK UP TO WHERE THEY DROPPED FROM, THEN PLATO IN A BLUR APPEARS BESIDE ARISTOTLE SITTING AT HIS DESK AND HE PICKS HIM UP AND SUPLEXES HIS MACEDONIAN ASS.

given the content of a lot of Plato’s conclusions I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Plato responded to a lot of reasonable criticisms with “Fight me” and that was the end of it.

We’re not actually sure whether Plato is his real name! Some people speculate that, because Platon means “broad” in Greek, this was actually his wrestling nick name. Basically, it’s like Dwayne Johnson became a famous philosopher and everyone still called him “The Rock”.

[dorksidefiker]

Can we have a movie about Plato starring Dwayne Johnson?

You can’t convince me that wouldn’t be the best thing ever.

[twoheartsneverlie]

I didn’t know I needed this until now. If someone can write a decent screenplay, and we get enough people to talk about it, maybe he’ll actually see it and we can kickstart the shit out of it

[thefingerfuckingfemalefury]

Plato’s name is literally just the Ancient Greek for ‘Swol’ how is this the real life

[doktorbedlam]

I am on board for Dwayne Johnson as Plato. Surely somebody on this site has contacts that can organise this.

You can come back and pick it right up. How can you try to define 54 nations with just one photo? This is how ridiculous you look: 

AMERICA:

THE COUNTRY OF KENYA IN AFRICA 

You see how unfair that is?

[libertybill]

Nothing kills me more than people generalizing Africa in any particular way. It’s just historically inaccurate and intellectually dishonest. A person in Cairo will have an absolutely different life experience than that of Nairobi or in Mogadishu.

Thank youuuuuuuu!!! 🙌
