"Genocide Joe Bros" is not taking it down a notch. It's the same "Bernie Bro" BS that was pushed by the Clinton Campaign in 2016 to smear the Left, which gave us Trump. There's a moral right answer on genocide, and labeling people who oppose it with that epithet is seriously fucked up.

Democratic leaders need to make it clear that people will be held accountable.

It was obviously a quoted paragraph. Your ignorance and your jumping to conclusions is decidedly a YOU problem.

Very bad form to call people MAGA, Georgie. Maybe you should check yourself.

Of course you'd say that. Utterly unsurprising, and completely incapable of learning. You are the reason we have trump. Your naivete and hypocrisy.

Let me make it clear: selling weapons to a fascist committing a genocide is the most glaringly obvious example of opening the door to fascism possible.

Countless ways, and it's late, but if I remember I'll add more tomorrow. But today is a perfect day to focus on an obvious one. Biden's last act as President? Signing an arms deal to Israel. Not preparing to prevent Project 2025. Not blocking the funding. Making sure it happened under his name.

No, it's not. If it was the racial wealth gap would be SMALLER.

Social liberalism as a definition of liberalism is a NEWER, reductionist, definition, expanding on the civil rights, and dispensing with laissez-faire capitalism - in theory. But the entire 20th century, and the 21st, have proven over and over again that the social liberalism was always lip service.

Classical liberalism - Wikipedia

You're absolutely, 100%, completely wrong.

Classical liberalism: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classic...

Democrats are EXPLICITLY of this form. In support of 1) capital, and 2) civil rights.

However, where the two come into conflict, capital ALWAYS wins.

The exercise would also be moot if Democrats didn't largely pursue right wing-lite policies, while never having a transformative vision that speaks to people.

And the reason they don't do that is because they are owned. Less owned than the GOP, sure. 80% owned. And they silence the 20% who aren't.

He wasn't wrong. We live in a world where every major media org, who are filled with liberal elites, almost every major university, and most of the Democratic leadership, have opened the door for fascism.

Terrible argument. The ACA was a REPUBLICAN PLAN, by THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION. You know, the Project 2025 folks.

It's not "ideological purity" to oppose that. It was obviously flawed. Yet, Dems accepted every GOP amendment, got 0 votes, and brought on electoral failure without fixing the problem.

Nope. But from what we've seen from universities, the media, AND Democratic leadership - am i leaving anyone out? - is that liberals elites aren't going to, either.

Look at how they've all kowtowed. And I'm going to call it out, every time, until we have leaders who aren't cowards.

Sorry, I should have posted the white liberal language friendly version from Dr. King.

Tone trolling is the worst. And it's often used to suppress voices that don't fit in elite spaces.

No one should be speaking politely about what is happening in this country right now.

This same exact excuse has been told for generations. It would lead one to believe the system is inherently flawed and needs re-thinking.

Weird how they earnestly want that but never seem able to make it happen.

And it's a failure to have a party that every time they lose an election trots out the consultant class wisdom that they just have to be more moderate and next time they'll win. Meanwhile, the Overton Window continually shifts to the right, and it's both parties shifting it.

I appreciate the apology. But there's incredible irony in being called MAGA when I post a quote from Malcolm X, who the right reviled and demonized. It kinda proves his point.

I'm not endorsing it. It's not a policy position. It's his observation. One which King, himself, came to support later in life, of course with more moderate language.

There are also tens of millions doing nothing, hiding behind fake PFPs, too afraid to speak up, and who set the stage for the situation we're in.

Opposing Trump might be a popular personality type. But the reason we're here isn't because he's some kind of supergenius (last I checked)

08.10.2025 02:00 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 6    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 3    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

LMFAO. I posted the quote because I had it on hand, and because it was directly relevant.

He called me MAGA for it. Go chastise him, you concern trolling hypocrite.
