The “For the better”, also known as Anakin and Padme 4-Panel and Clueless Padme meme. The first panel shows a guy saying “You should vote dem and push them to be better.” The second panel shows another person saying “So you’re going to push them to be better after you vote?”. The third panel shows the first person saying nothing and staring. The last one shows the second person with a concerned look on her face saying “you’re going to push them to be better after you vote?”.

    At least with dems nothing changes

    the problem with “nothing changes” is that it in fact, does change. wages have stagnated for decades and the cost of living keeps rising, and dems won’t vote to increase minimum wage. meaning dems are actively making things worse for people by doing nothing. dems could have enshrined abortoin rights in law, they did nothing and now those rights are lost to a portion of the nation, with plans by republicans to make that nationwide.

    I could keep going like this for hours, talking about all the things dems have made worse with their “nothing changes” policy, but I think we all get the idea. nothing changes is nothing more than a policy of slowly making things worse.
