It's exhausting...
(lemmy.world)
It's in the Democrats' best interest not to take meaningful action against fascism because the only thing they really campaign on anymore is that they're ostensibly not as bad as the other party
This is starting to look like a thread from reddit or lemmy.world
Please read the sidebar and take care not to defend liberals or the US sham "democracy"
Yikes, some Liberals are not getting the message. I'll make it clear
Just the way the donor class wants it.
I almost looks like your "democrats" are not actually democrats...
It looks an awful lot like they want the same things as Republicans and are all playing an elaborate game of Good Cop/Bad Cop.
But if you vote Democrat you'll
- ~~get a good economy~~
- ~~get a president that isn't incompetent~~
- ~~get a president that will actively fight genocide~~
- ~~get a president that won't dump money into the military industrial complex~~
- ~~get a president that will fight back against fascism~~
- ~~get a president that won't sacrifice all of their values in the name of "bipartisanship"~~
- get a president who's name isn't Donald J Trump
That alone is enough to secure my vote for Biden, but it doesn't feel much like democracy.
It isn't, democracy is an illusion by the capitalists
Yeah, man. What it feels like is bullying. Take this thing you don't want or we'll let someone burn your house to the ground. Is basically an elaborate racketeering scheme.
Wanna go ahead and count how many people voted?

Liberty Hub: A Space for Leftists and Post-Leftists
217 readers
300 users here now
Anyone is welcome, not just leftists, but these are the guidelines:
- No oppressing other users (bigotry is oppression). This includes not using the r-slur (or any variation thereof).
- No defending oppressive systems such as capitalism or the US "democracy."
- No uncivil or rude comments to other users (politicians and capitalists are fair game).
- No ax murderers, serial killers, neoliberals, torturers, cops, cryptobros, debatebros, or similar.
- Discussion, not debate. It's okay to ask someone to elaborate on an idea, but most communities shout down leftists and post-leftists, and that's not supposed to happen here. This includes especially "whatabout Trump" on posts criticizing Biden.
- No genocide denial or support for genocidal entities such as IDF, ICE, the US prison system, or likewise.
- Transphobes eat my ass.
- These guidelines are meant to allow open discussion and prevent the constant trolling of leftists and post-leftists that happens in places like reddit and Facebook. Follow the spirit of these guidelines.
If you are here to learn, then welcome! Remember this is not a debate hub. This is a place to share and learn.
Other than that, feel free to share memes, text posts, articles, or other things you find edifying and helpful.
The main reason I started this is because I know it's hard to have a discussion in non-leftist spaces without constantly having to stop and explain fundamental ideas, so I hope this will give a space and a voice to anyone who's felt frustrated like me.
