  • Ah yes waste time blaming people who were actually trying to move the needle back to the left but were roundly ignored by a bunch of geriatric genociders who would rather pander to racists and ignoramuses who would never vote for them in the first place than just idk maybe stop committing genocide.

    This will totally get those people to vote for the other milque toast white racist that the dems put up as a candidate without any sort of election and just expect everyone to vote for because “at least theyre not trump” without actually having any policy that differs from republicans in any sort of meaningful way.

    It is thr joh of the democratic party to resist this. If they cant even get their own people to resist, it is either incompetence or it is willful and purposeful.

    In either case, they are failures and should not be voted for until they actually fight for the people

    Oh my gosh guys they made a plan!! And they’re ramping their plan up! Im sure this will really make the ruling party fret. I bet theyre really worried about the consequences of their actions now. Im sure that if we impeach Kristi Noem everything will go back to normal and our jobs will be done. Dont protest guys. We got rid of Kristi Noem!

    Ok to your second sentence, but it is proven over and over again that health care for women is at a much lower standard than for men. Less funding, less research, less care. Those are objective facts. Calling that out is not creating a gender war its identifying a drastic gap that has been written about in countless medical journals for decades.





  • I agree with supporting real progressives

    I disagree with too late to bitch. The dems fucked Bernie over for Hilary in one of the most corrupt political situations ive ever seen. Either dems can stop providing candidates that dont support genocide and that no one except billionaires want, or they can keep losing to literal fascists. Its a really easy choice for them but they absolutely seem unwilling to make it.

    Gavin Newsom is a right wing candidate. He shouldn’t be within a million miles of the presidency.



  • Thats honestly crazy If youre making 100k and can still barely make ends meet that should be a sign for someone making 30k that shits broken. The difference is billionaires hoarding money. They should be the ones everyone is teaming up against. Someone making 100k in a high COL area is in a lot of ways really similar to someone making 30k in a low COL area.



  • I agree with what you’ve said too, but again, I think the dems would have done a lot of this either way. Not as callously, not as absurdly, but they had a chance to lock up trump, Pence, McConnell, Paul Ryan, etc., and chose not to do it in order to protect themselves. Biden had more deportations than trump did in his first term. We just didnt hear about it. Are you telling me every single one of those people were guilty of whatever crime? Or that families weren’t torn apart?

    I agree that it wouldnt be as bad as it currently is, but they were both trending in that direction. Genocide would have continued at the same pace. People were losing their homes and families while the rich buy up all estates for dimes and dollars under the dems too.

    You say “compromise, nuance, and empathy will slow you down, but thats not a reason to abandon your principles”. I would argue that a lot of people were refusing to abandon their principles - namely genocide being bad and promises being broken, and the democratic party showed theirs - namely corporate welfare, money, and lip service to the middle and lower classes. The thing was, those principles were not the same.

    The immediate response and the response ever since from Dems has been to blame every sort of minority they could (Arab Americans, black americans, millenials, latinos), while refusing to countenance the fact that those groups still did by and large vote majority for dems. The people who didnt were white men and women. On top of that, they keep talking about how the voters were wrong and cost them, rather than focusing on what they did wrong, which everyone was shouting from the rooftops.

    Things were not great before Trump. Thats why he won the first term, in addition to the DNC shooting themselves in the foot and doing all they could to stop Bernie. Biden stabilized some stuff, but didnt do much for anyone, and things got worse from the first trump term. Its not like everything was sunshine and roses while the dems were in charge. And even if they do come back in charge, they fucked themselves by allowing the Republicans to stack every single court in the country. Again, that level of incompetence cannot be real - either they are fully incapable of planning anything, or they were okay with it happening.
