The fact that this guy posts this on X with a paid-for blue checkmark tells you everything about why Trump won and why he'll keep winning. The left has made almost no effort to win the information space. They just lose and then celebrate when some of the harm falls back on MAGA.
How about his for a change: Win. Try to win. Stop kowtowing to right wing information propaganda spaces that stifle the left like X, Fox News, and Rogan. Fight them like the right fights the left in the information space. True, you won't get to celebrate when your neighbor suffers from Trump, but it'll be because he didn't vote Trump in the first place.
I saw the "Dems are the Uvalde cops Magas are the shooters." And goddamn it salpped ever since. You guys need to get a real 3rd party that is real grassroots socialist.
I've been watching people go on and on about a Socialist revolution since I read about Gene Debs in high school.
I haven't seen them actually do anything yet.
Easy to say, hard to do.
Need to finish that Elden Ring dlc first.
that would be me. sucks im too poor to run a campaign though lmao.
This is a liberal account, he's not a leftist. Leftists have been in the streets, while liberals remain in the tweets.
Nice rhyme, might steal it
I don’t believe in intellectual property, so you can’t. It’s yours as much as mine.
You expect a "both sides" maga to know that? Seeing all these "it's the dem's fault for not telling us how shit trump would treat us" folks is crazy. Everyone want to blame the dems for the lepords.
The democrats ran the same candidate against Trump and lost two out of the three times they tried. Do you happen to know the definition of insanity?
put that on a bumper sticker
everyone in the country should be liberal. but it seems most just ignore the term and definition behind it though and just assume only left/democrats want to have freedom
There must be dozens of them.
This fuckin slaps
Thanks, I literally thought it up when I typed “in the streets”.
Remind me again, are the democrats currently in power?
Right, those are the same democrats actively helping Trump. Hey, good job on those performative sit downs in congress, you guys are really fighting the good fight! I’ve always said that nothing beats fascism like a not-too-strongly worded letter. At the rate things are going, it practically doesn’t matter that you ushered in a red wave and lost the House, Senate, Presidency, and Supreme Court, and probably destroyed democracy.
Now run along back to brunch before the wine is gone!
I’m not a registered democrat nor do I hold love for the party. How we feel about them is irrelevant. My previous comment is accurate.
You are also the first person to mention the Democrats. I said leftists aren’t in positions of power and liberals are.
good lord, its always the dems fault! 'why oh why didn't we run a racist rapist who promises to ban an entire religion! someone who has bankrupted casinos! someone who cant run a charity for cancer kids!? a fraud university!? clearly its the dems fault ! they didn't excite me enough! i demand perfection!'
two different standards and yet americans are still blaming democrats.
its the citizens.
No, it's (1) proximity to massive online psyop campaigns put forth by BRICS (BIGGEST FACTOR) (2) profound loneliness and social isolation and (3) low information/bad internet hygiene
i actually have no idea what the fuck you are talking about, but im willing to listen and hear you out. explain it to me like to a child.
Bricks is Brasil, Russia, India, China and one other. Their goal is to dethrone G7. The other points are sociological and about digital propaganda.
welp maybe im old but ive known this since at least 9/11 times. everything except brazil didnt they get rid of their dictator recent? anyways interesting to hear it called bricks and im glad people are aware. thank you for the breakdown
Senile genocidaire = almost perfect.
next time we'll get it right and run a senile genocidarie who's also a failed businessman who cheats on his wives.
clearly the winning card.
But will it be able to beat 50 year old ex guantanamo bay guard crusader wannabe?
only if its racist enough and enlists unelected billionaires!
gosh why cant the dems learn to run these types!
