Good luck with that. I'll try one more time: many people have heard the same bullshit from the Dems for many years, and yet things kept getting worse. The sky is always falling every 4 years. Do some of them regret it now. Sure. Are the Dems going to do anything different? Probably not.

And yet the fascist won the popular vote. The Dems have lost to the orange felon TWICE. How fucked up does your messaging and campaigning have to be to pull THAT off? People need a reason to vote FOR someone. Telling them they're ignorant fucks isn't one of them.

Who TF said I was an abstentionist? Are you a troll? The Dems lost the last election! And they will keep losing until they provide an alternative to fascism besides bullshitting people with trickle-down economics. People are pissed. They want bold proposals.

It's Official: the Cybertruck is More Explosive than the Ford Pinto - FuelArc News We now have a full year of data for the Cybertruck, and a strange preponderance of headlines about Cybertrucks exploding into flames, including several fatalities. Thatโ€™s more than enough data to comp...

The Ford Pinto had a death rate of 85 people for 10 million cars sold. The Cybertruck hasn't sold 10 million, but the fatality rate so far maths out to 1,452 people killed per 10 million sold.

The Cybertruck may be the deadliest road car, for the occupants, ever sold.

Because the status quo the party wants to return to sucked and it's why they lost the last election. I don't have any purity tests, but the cautious incrementalism while avoiding pissing off the oligarchs isn't gonna cut it anymore. Like what the fuck indeed!

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M, to detain 4k people of whom only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Plus two citizens murdered.

Ah, that explains voters' delusions that Democrats would actually fight for them when they were shilling for the autocrats for the last 40 years. Is there reason to hope now?

โ€˜No one deserves thisโ€™: Beaverton father dies after deportation to Mexico A Beaverton family is grieving after the father, who was detained and deported by ICE, has now died.

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported.

He finally died.

I am so angry.

I guess "our" Department of Justice has been selective in pursuing justice for a long time. Will anyone be held accountable? I'm not holding my breath.
