Seize the Memes of Production
An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.
Other Great Communities:
Evidentially nowhere because the Dems when leftist vote for them shout they weren't needed and proceed to not pass anything. But keep on compromising your morals and values for the lesser evil, I'm SURE that'll win them over in the end.
Your interlocutor isn't compromising anything. They got 100% of what they wanted from every candidate in the race.
Biden-era Democrats: passing child cash payments, drug-price negotiation, insulin caps, the biggest climate bill in US history, and the biggest federal gun-safety law in decades. With a 50-50 Senate and an obstructionist opposition.
Obama-era Democrats: passing ACA, Fair Sentencing Act, Dodd Frank, creating CFPB, etc. With only like 70 days of having 60 votes in the senate.
Leftists: dems pass nothing.
Question for you: do you think Palestinians should thank you for rejecting imperfect Democrats and helping to hand the presidency, house and senate to the party whose members openly support fewer restrictions on Israel?
But keep rejecting them to preserve your sense of superiority, I'm SURE that'll help the most vulnerable more than keeping Republicans out of power.
