Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Rules:

We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

I welcome Harris running in the primary. In fact, I suspect had we had a primary in 2024 Trump wouldn’t be president now.

Like the last time she primaried and didn't even make it to the first day of voting? Crazy that they expected that candidate to win.

4 years is a long time, and what is true one cycle isn’t necessarily so the next.

I’m not saying Harris is my preference for a democrat, only that a primary can sort it out.

No. The DNC run the primaries. They'll just manufacture seeming consent for Harris or another Neoliberal stooge with policy positions far to the right of the people they're supposed to represent.

To the DNC, it's still 1992 and it always will be.

Clinton as the response to Reagan really did break the party.
