We desperately need an actual progressive party..... But the electoral college makes it impossible, and they know that, so they just heel at the command of their corporate donors without worry..... And the status quo continues, with a "promise" to maaaaybe not raise healthcare prices.... Ridiculous.

I really hope this is just the start, but for now I'm content with just being happy for this win in particular lol

Make shit up to paint a narrative outside of the reality you don't like then blame Republican actions on them as well to try and skirt responsibilities and manufacture a villain, how typical, and exactly like Hitler, as usual.

He wants Americans to suffer so he can use it to blame his political opponents, with the end goal of removing them ALL from power, by force most likely, just like Orban, Erdogan, Putin, and Hitler.

It's a pretty typical play for forced "democratic backsliding," i.e. basic authoritarianism.

So, as usual, he's just making shit up, the standard for right-wingers....

I mean, I'd be happy to have Obama back, but I also don't want anything that the fascists can use to try and justify Mango Mussolini running again. He'll do it anyways, ofc, but giving him and his cult such an easy "whataboutism" will just be annoying and troublesome.

I'm sure some do, others don't, but they've been directed to tow the line for Trump cause they're fascists now who have to follow orders or suffer the consequences of not being a bootlicker to the man in charge, so they all gladly continue to try and bury it regardless of how much they know.

I don't disagree with his takes on Reddit, to be honest, those alone paint a rather positive picture for me.

It's just that he's more than his Reddit history, he carries a lot of red flags, and it's kinda hard to ignore those when his response is just "I didn't even know," for one of them.

And if/when he wins and there is no Sharia Law, those dumb shits will continue to just say "and now NYC is under Sharia Law" as if it's just a fact, cause they don't live in reality anymore, they have a racist narrative hand fed to them like the sheep they are, and that's all they care to know....

Never was, tbh.

Wishful thinking.

Trump wants the US to be like Russia/N.Korea//Hungary/etc, and if he succeeds, well, those nations are still under strict authoritarian rule, they don't get their "happy endings."

Gotta fight back, and even then, this all just proves that evil and stupid always come back around.

a man is holding a piece of bread over a woman 's face and asking what are you ? ALT: a man is holding a piece of bread over a woman 's face and asking what are you ?

Nice try, moron.

No you don't.

So now your argument is that the propaganda is too strong so the Dems should give everything up all of the time?

Man, the Nazis would have loved you as opposition.....

Oh FFS, I am, and the REPS caused this shutdown, you say you don't blame the Dems but you sure are actively blaming the Dems a lot lol

So the Reps shouldn't be playing these games cause as you said "THEY WANTED THIS."

And MAGA is a cult, they'll starve without ever changing their views on Trump, that can't be helped, and doesn't change who caused this.

Let's not forget they do have the budget for SNAP, they just refuse to use it.

And THAT is on the Reps, cause the Dems can't just capitulate on Americans' healthcare to avoid what the REPS created.

Yeah, people starving is bad, so maybe the Reps shouldn't be playing games with that reality in order to remove their healthcare.

It's lose-lose for them, cause of the Reps.

No excuses, not when so many of us have been warning of the obvious for so long, any ignorance is deliberate at this point.

So the Dems should capitulate everything the Reps want at all times without contest to avoid any shutdowns, instead of the Reps just NOT being pieces of shit?

Nah, this is still entirely on the Reps, Trump himself has said multiple times that the REPS should not budge, so why is it on the Dems?

That message should be aimed at the Republicans, who are forcing this shutdown to happen, THEY shouldn't be letting people starve, that should be a standard THEY follow as well, and letting them bulldoze their way through the destruction of American democracy isn't how to stop them from doing so.

Anti-vaxxers are legitimately dangerously stupid.

They're one of the groups I've never given any leeway to whatsoever, I've ruined friendships over it cause I refuse to let such ignorance and apathy for other people just slide by.

These idiots are killing people with how dumb they are... Pathetic.

Dems didn't have that choice, though.

Republicans said "agree to absolutely everything we want without any concessions whatsoever, or the government shuts down."

It's the job of the party in power to find common ground, that's the point, and Reps just didn't, so the Dems had no options.

I'm against gerrymandering regardless of which party does it, cause it is after all illegal.

But if Republicans are allowed to just do it as much as they fucking want, well Dems gotta do something to try and force it into the courts, again.....

The Muskrat got the investigations into him stopped and fired a bunch of people.

Exactly as we warned was all that would happen, right on the mark as we have been with every other prediction for this dogshit regime, including the ballooning debt, cause some of us still have basic hindsight skills.

I'm happy it exists! Someone being upset they can't have it yet is so unbelievably childish I'd never consider that opinion worth my time anyways lol

Looking forward to it, whenever that may be!

Thanks for proving you had no intent of reading everything from the links, I already knew you didn't actually care about reality and accuracy but you essentially admitting as such makes it clearer.

So no, it's not awkward if you actually read everything, like the parts that explain the differences.

You should educate yourself before continuing to spread misinformation.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_K...

And btw, North Korea calls itself the "Democratic People's Republic," so does that convince you it's also a democracy? Lol

You're describing communism, not socialism, and North Korea is a totalitarian hereditary dictatorship that uses the term "communism" to try and trick the people into thinking there's equal distribution when there isn't.
