both shides are the shaamies!?
which side is trying to ban an entire religion? and trans folks? is it both shides now? No? gee wonder how you get your info.
all you fucks care about is your investments while the minorities get suffocated. fuck the right fuck off
People: We appreciate the Democratic party for helping the minorities and lgbt to have a voice and civil liberties, but there is more to it than life. Can you help us alleviate from economic pressure of inflation, housing costs, medical bills and college debt?
Democrats: Best I can do is identity politics.
"then fuck you democrats!" gets sent to el-salvador
damn those identities, getting us deported and imprisoned and installing fascism. such similar political parties, amirite
Democrats: You will be happy with the breadcrumbs that we ~~rich me and my oligarch boss~~ give, or those people will deport you.
Now that I think about it, Democrats are basically threatening people to vote for them or they will be deported. Not saying the quiet part out loud.
meanwhile the republicans "MY CAMPAIGN PROMISE IS TO BAN AN ENTIRE RELIGION! WOOOOO! FUCK POOR PEOPLE TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH! WOOOOO!"
"gee whiz they are both the same!- morons"
Democrats: WE WILL NOT HELP THE PEOPLE LIVING PAY CHECK TO PAY CHECK! WE WOULD RATHER ENABLE FASCISTS GET INTO POWER THAN LOSE OUR CORPORATE DONATIONS! YOU WILL VOTE FOR US OR YOU WILL BE DEPORTED BY OUR COLLEAGUES ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE!
Well, ever since Chuck Schumer allowed much of the Republican budget bill to pass without resistance, I haven't heard more people saying "vote blue no matter who".
Just saying.
so. just to be sure, for us minorities. Be deported to el salvador or pay the same same exact money in taxes and prices as you would with your opposition?
do you see how dumb this sounds? Do you see why this is so ridiculous?
Hey! let me cut your balls off! the other guy will do it anyways (but also take the shaft and tip) does this make sense to you? GEE whiz I wonder which side I will choose they are both so similar
Do you think taxes are the only economic concerns?
"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made."- Franklin D. Roosevelt
If the Democratic Party still thinks we're still partying in the 1990s at the height of economic boom and neoliberal politics, when the average Americans' purchasing power was much higher than now and wealth inequality was low, then they need to wake up. The party is over.
for white people? yes. once again you guys worry about investments and apparently egg prices. minorities worry about being fucking sent to prison. the parties are not the same.
More Latinos and African Americans voted Trump than before.
Ultimately, it is down to economic anxiety. The rich co-opt identity issues to manipulate the public to keep fighting amongst themselves. If you can't see it, you will eventually.
no i agree. This is our "brexit" except the pain will be far more than people think.
america first! gets deported America first gets sent to el-salvodore America first ! gets fired because of a recession
You see it is important to focus on the party not in power if we do not critically analyze their every failure publicly, then they might actually get support again. Do not offer solutions of todays problems, do not focus on todays problems. Focus on the failures of Democrats who failed to serve the needs of the far far left. How dare they not accomplish a utopian paradise? /s
i saw a party that wanted to ban half my family from the country, and people cheered. I know who to support and don't need advice, sorry.
there was no critical failures of democrats like that. "oh no they take corpo money" on the other hand my my family could be kidnapped to el salvador was not a choice it was a necessity. white people do not need to worry about that though apparently. /s
I got a buddy who's first gen citizen from brazil, living in the south and voted red. Thinks he's not going to be bothered by ICE. Was arrested by ice under obama do to a false idenification.
These people are brainwashed and in a cult. They need help. Like they can't even use their real life experiences to guide their decisions. Guess which president they got citizenship under....
yeah and its weird meeting muslims who vote for trump, i tell them are they voting to be banned and they just stare blank eyed at me and mumble something about the economy.
its stunning
Hating gay people is a powerful unifying force. I did not expect the marriage of latinos, muslims and maga whites.
this is true; the chickens voting for the KFC colonel. amazing and depressing at the same time
