Democrats are the reason we're in this mess though. All they had to do was convince Biden to stick with his 1 term plan and have normal primaries.
Not to mention Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the Democrats who limply allowed SCOTUS to be stacked with unqualified Conservative justices.
Not to mention biden spending 4 years supporting genocide, increasing attacks on migrants/refugees. etc.
And doing absolutely nothing to prevent the current situation.
After endless trolley dilemma arguments, it is now that we are allowed to analyze the system that lashes people to tracks?
It literally says 'they', as in the Republicans, and is blaming the Republicans for insider trading, stealing congressional seats, bankrupting farmers, and bombing fishing boats.
It's also blaming the Democrats for not doing much.
You can blame the Republicans for being shit and the Democrats for not doing enough. Two different groups can be responsible for two separate things.
And the conclusion is that you need a system that allows multiple parties to get some competition going instead of winner takes all.
which party is fighting for that at the national level? I don't hear the sound of democrats falling over each other to start promoting more parties in govt. Not even going to consider the republicans.
We're fucked because we spent the last 70 years making corporations stronger than nations. So of course lies are the truth, and bad is good, and down is up. Thats what corporations do; gaslight, extract, destroy.
Amen. Control the corporations if you want to fix the world.
The rich will burn it all if they aren't regulated.
Democrats do deserve to be blamed for losing elections. If they ran better campaigns, if they read the room and actually responded to voters' concerns, maybe the GOP wouldn't have total control of all three branches right now.
No, the reason is because you all keep looking to the dems as the "good guys" in all in this, instead of what they are. Co-conspirators. Never EVER forget that in 2016, Bernie would have beaten Trump with ease. Even Republicans were saying they would vote for Bernie. The world would never know what a Trump presidency looks like, if not for the Dems and the DNC screwing him over.
And they havent stopped. They are still screwing people over who could bring about change. Like AOC. They fucked her out of a committee seat less than 12 months ago. Instead the shoehorned in some 75 year old man with cancer because he was part of the swamp. Thats right, instead of a 35 year old woman in her prime, they chose a 75 year old man dying of cancer. And he did fucking die. He died 4 months later, and they STILL wont allow her to take the seat because she wont bend the knee to the corrupt party leader or their self interested donors.
If you all want anything to change, start a grass roots movement right fucking now around AOC and get her the nom for 2028. If youre all just going to sit back, and cross your fingers that cunts like Nancy fucking Pelosi are going to save you... well, youre fucked. And not in the good way. Stop fucking whining, and get out there and make the future you want to happen!
Probably because we elected the Dems to do something and they put their top man, Merrick Garland, on it and he did jack shit for two years. Biden also knew the court was fucked and refused to do anything about that. Also he did nothing to differentiate himself from the fasc and actively did a genocide and border fascism. Then he refused to give up power and handed his campaign over to a person who refused to distance herself from him.
So, yes, the useless neoliberals have doomed us to climate catastrophe and have enabled fascism by refusing to give up on their failed ideology. This is a global phenomenon that could have been prevented by helping normal people with their problems instead of tinkering around the edges.
Merrick Garland is a member of the heritage foundation and giving him the AG was putting a conservative in charge of prosecuting conversatives. The most important part of Biden's presidency was prosecuting Trump and he chose a fucking Republican for the job.
Democrats always do this. They're always 'looking forward, not back', and that meant that Nixon, Reagan, Bush Jr and Trump all got away with various crimes, and so did the minions that worked for all of them (like Roger Stone).
Democrats were falling under themselves saying 'in this country we don't prosecute our political opponents', followed through with that promise, and now Trump is prosecuting them.
It's not like they didn't know what was coming - Biden preemptively pardoned his son in anticipation of this.
But fuck the rest of us.
they got too sensitive, that they are afraid offending republicans voters, who may or may not vote for them. DEMS are never going to get any R voters, in general. they dont keep the younger based engaged enough, like AOC, BERNIE AND MADHAMI WOULD.
biden knew he couldn't beat anyone but trump. that's why he appointed garland.
Tim, tell’em how much violence the Black Panther party had to commit to gain actually civil rights. How many deaths had to be fought for.
There’s work to be done. Politician are all sycophants. Let's go out an win our rights again.
I hope both parties end up as museum exhibits, where people can learn why First Past the Post was replaced with something better.
the GOP already died (to a personality cult around trump), now we just need voters to realize the establishment Dem's can die just as easily...i think Mamdani taking NYC will be wakeup call to progressives across the country, about just how weak their grasp is now
They are fucking useless, to be fair.
Sure felt like the Republicans were able to block shit pretty successfully when they were a way smaller minority
Democrats when they are the majority: "OMG, the Republicans are preventing us from giving you any of the things that you want. I guess we gotta go bomb a bunch of brown people, and spend a bunch of monies on our rich friends."
Democrats when they are the minority: "What do you want us to do? We don't have any power. I guess we gotta vote for the Republican policies."
