We outnumber them and America should feel like it. No, individual acts of defiance won't do it, but whatever does will work better in a defiant country than a cowering one.

This shit is going to collapse under its own weight if nothing else. I'd kinda like the good guys to have an impact on whatever comes next.

Fuck this bullshit, why do they get a free pass?

OK, got it. No free pass. What are talking about here, on a scale from harsh finger wag to mass executions?

You expect us to believe you care about Palestinians when you helped bring Trump to power?

The only vote I ever made that assisted Trump was a vote for Biden in 2020. I voted Harris, and you are clearly not trying to follow what I'm saying. Quit wasting my time.

You intentionally made things worse for Palestinians just to make a political point.

Such irony. This is exactly my criticism of your misguided efforts to help Democrats by berating voters. Your arguments and especially your attitude aren't sending the message you think they are.

Trump, who by the way, has supported the genocide being hyper exacerbated

Dead is dead. There is no exacerbated. Harris clutching her pearls instead of planning a resort would make absolutely zero difference.

You are 100% right, and 100% useless. I'll bet you were one of those morons who thought they were helping Harris win by scolding voters who were angry about genocide. Brilliant politics there, berate voters until you get your way.

progressives, lefties, liberals and general non-nazis

Remarkably, the current Democratic establishment is none of these things.

I'll take anything to get rid of Trump.

Why? Aside from personally being an absolute bag of shit, Trump is not remotely the worst part of the Trump presidency. Trump isn't competent enough to do most of the harm.being done. He's just a spokesman or a puppet.

If we elect the wrong Democrat, in four more years we'll be in even worse shape. That's what happened when we nominated Biden. I called it the second he won the nomination. We would have been better off if Trump won in 2020. Biden was not up to the moment, and Newsom is not up to this moment. If he gets the nomination, America will not survive. Of course, we may not survive anyways - so maybe this conversation is moot.

No you didn't. You said "lol..." not "lol...." The former implies something will follow as the sentence is not complete. I was inquiring as to what (presumably) clever thought you omitted.

What does being a progressive have to do with it? They aren't liberals either. They are elitists and corporatists, and most voters aren't that either.

Mr. Homan’s encounter with the undercover agents, recorded on audiotape, led him to be investigated for potential bribery and other crimes, after he apparently took the money and agreed to help the agents — who were posing as businessmen — secure future government contracts related to border security,

I hope that House Democrats are going to subpoena that tape. It sure would be a shame if it leaked to the press though.

Do you even realize that Hillary and Harris have similarities that aren't tits? What voters don't want is another corporate sellout.

[-] Tinidril@midwest.social 9 points 2 days ago

If Gavin is the Democratic nominee, the country is 100% over. Even if he wins, another spineless corporate neoliberal will not be up to the job ahead.

Third parties are irrelevant. They have failed continuously for over a hundred years. How is someone going to build an effective 50 state organization, find and vet candidates that won't betray us in office, raise awareness with absolutely no old media coverage and social media that buries them, then win an election in 14 months? There are some solid progressives running in Democratic primaries, and they are the ones that need resources.
