I’ll tip my hat to the new Constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Yeah
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss
Small gov’t is usually a lie anyway. It’s a smokescreen for “actually we’re still going to tell you what to do.”
They strip away everything that actually helps people, so in that way it’s really small.
So small it’ll fit in your vagina.
It’s small because they have zero oversight and they only need to worry about one party. Hurray!
Except the “Small government” is even bigger. The only difference is that all the money gets handed to oligarchs. The Republicans have never reduced spending while in power.
This kind of shit is why the right keeps winning. Even the people that oppose them buy into their framing and repeat their lies and propaganda.
Building giant walls, deporting people en masse, surveillance society, making sure women’s rights are held at bay, placing and enforcing restrictions on clean energy - all things that sound “small government”? As dumb as they are, I don’t think I’ve even heard the Republicans using this phrase lately - it’s so ridiculous.
They increase spending on really stupid shit that have no legs but will absolutely gut useful services. People aren’t wrong to be mad when they see their stuff get defunded and that’s the important stuff many are going to focus on. So you’re right but it’s not as simple as that.
The smallest government is a dictatorship.
Small dick tater
Republicans want tyranny, not small government.
Oh and their idea of small government is letting the rich stomp on you while police tanks roll though the streets mowing down anyone who doesn’t bow to them.
And also way more expensive than big government
Well of course, it’s about less taxes for the rich not less taxes. It’s ok, all that wealth is gonna trickle down any time now.
Government so small it fits not only within your bedroom, but within your uterus!
Pick up my guitar and play
Fuck the poor, fuck the old, fuck the environment, fuck soldiers and veterans, fuck the sick, fuck food safety…
Me when “small government” supporters don’t start by defunding the police
Surely small Government means repealing all that red tape enforcing individual property rights too?
Updoots for use of “go on, get!”.
There’s a new improved version being pushed now which introduces itself by saying “fuck everyone except the incredibly wealthy”.
