EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 09/10/2026Canadians will see this and still give Carney and his party an absolute majority vote share at the next elections. The Liberal Party really lives up to its name in the era of liberalism’s collapse. I hope the party crumbles soon, but I’m not optimistic. Bon sois, Canada! 011
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 09/10/2026Fictional politics concept: In the Pokémon world, the regional champion is basically a constitutional monarch. This system was set up to encourage trainers to become stronger for regional/national defense. This also explains why the sometimes world-ending evil teams are always defeated by children. 000

EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026I’m a one-stater and I think an essential part of that is both populations rehumanizing each other so they can share one country. It makes me sad when two-staters say that’s impossible, but it infuriates me when other one-staters don’t want/care about it at all. 010

EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026Liberalism fell off hard once liberals started defending state-mandated involuntary labor. What happened to liberty and individual rights, guys? What happened to freedom? 100
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026Again, treating the slaves nicely doesn’t make it not slavery. You could assign me to a cushy $400k/yr office job and it would still be slavery if I’m not allowed to quit whenever I want. I understand that social contracts exist, and I also understand that some contracts require military slavery. 200
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026Whatever you think of the requirement to work in general under capitalism, it’s certainly more voluntary than mandatory military service. At least you have some agency in choosing what job you want. 200
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026I don’t know why you keep bringing up other countries. I don’t support Eritrea and I certainly don’t support North Korea either. The fact that some other countries are worse does not mean western countries should be immune to criticism. 100
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026It doesn’t matter if you get paid, because it’s still Involuntary labor. Treating the slaves nicely doesn’t make it not slavery. 300
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026Yeah, part of the “social contract” in many countries is being enslaved to the state for a short amount of time. It’s slavery in all those other countries too. 210
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026It’s forced labor. We call that slavery in most other contexts, and I don’t see why it’s not applicable here too. 400
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 08/10/2026I hate Israel as much as the next radical left lunatic, but no, it’s not ok to say an entire country’s population is evil because their government forced them into temporary military slavery. 140
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 07/10/2026Prison for every agent. The "good cops" should've quit long ago if they didn't want to be complicit in these systemic acts of evil. 020
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 07/10/2026This is the first time Fox News has enthusiastically supported a man saying “talk about testosterone, like a mustang” about another man and calling him “an ocean of love” and “a lion”. 😊 It’s heartwarming to see gay people finally accepted in society! 010
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 07/10/2026And they wonder why we “radical” progressives get so infuriated when Dems through trans people under the bus. Transphobia is a cancer which must be ripped out of our society, alongside all other disgusting forms of bigotry. 000
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 06/10/2026The European Union is considering a bill which, among other things, would ban privately-operated video game servers.

EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 05/10/2026Populism is generally bad, yes, but left wing policy is actually required to fix the economic problems modern America faces. The American Dream has become out of reach for many people, and we on the left need to acknowledge that and put forward solutions. 140
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 05/10/2026The problem, at least in the US, is that the majority of anti-Trump people haven’t been willing to put forward a left wing alternative to Trumpism. There’s a large portion of the American electorate that wants to just do nothing, and that’s what gives the Trumpist minority power. 140
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 05/10/2026The macros failed to capture the real economic situation at the end of the Biden admin, so it doesn’t surprise me at all that they’re failing now. We’re in an era where traditional economic metrics don’t really make sense anymore. 000

EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 23/09/2026There is so much more that can be done, that must be done, than our governments’ current climate “action”. We can do better. Many people have put that into words, and we finally have a politician who’s putting it into action as well. 021

EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 20/09/2026Do you know how to read? I literally called the US an empire. It’s just *an* empire, not *the only* empire. Nobody is a based anti-imperialist champion of freedom simply by virtue of being opposed to the US. 030
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 19/09/2026Russia, and the Soviet Union for that matter, are/were despotic capitalist regimes. Control of the economy has always been held by an anti-democratic ruling class. Today, we have established liberal empires versus up-and-coming illiberal ones. Both sides are still capitalist. 121

EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 13/09/2026We’re taking back the Senate this November, and we’ll probably increase our margins there in 2028. Trump has already said he’s going to obstruct whatever the Dems do for the next 2 years, so the economy isn’t going to get any better. Unlike Biden, the next Dem president will have the votes for this. 100
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 13/09/2026No? It may be the case that Biden was in an unwinnable situation on that issue (as he was on a lot of issues). The next Dem president isn’t going to have that problem. 000
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 13/09/2026One simple way to do this is to peg the minimum wage to the cost of living by state or even by county. As the cost of living rises due to inflation, the minimum wage will continue to ensure that everyone can meet their basic needs. 100
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 13/09/2026More accurately, basic necessities becoming unaffordable killed Biden/Harris. That’s preventable, it just requires prioritizing the interests of working people over business owners. 110
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 13/09/2026THIS is how Dem candidates should respond to dishonest culture war distractions. There’s absolutely no need to capitulate to anti-science bigotry. As usual, El-Sayed is running a damn near perfect campaign. 030
EmpressAutumn @atom596.com · 12/09/2026I can definitely sympathize with that view, even though I disagree. I’m fairly optimistic about America’s future. 000
