This is one of the funniest things about their ideology. Democracy is supposedly one of the pillars of neoliberalism, but voters absolutely hate neoliberals and will only vote for them to keep a worse option out of power (see Macron and Trudeau for example)

Is it bad that I’m wishing he gets as much or more elder abuse as Feinstein did at this point? I despise him so much and he’s so evil that I want him to suffer forever being confused and scared as he’s dragged around on his deathbed

Why would you go to a rave in a war zone? Sounds like a skill issue to me

You keep whining about unarmed civilians while completely ignoring the fact that the settlers shouldn’t be there. Being unarmed isn’t a card that you can play that absolves you of consequences. As long as you are an invader and occupier you will rightfully be at risk

I’ll be honest, I despise New York City, not because I’m scared of crime (it felt incredibly safe to me), but because large parts of it aren’t a city, but are instead a series of obscene temples of capitalism

Now, full admission this was as a tourist so I had a very distorted exposure to the city. But like, everything was insanely expensive, everyone I met was some rich boomer or millennials who were mostly cool but clearly squeezed into a constantly hustling lifestyle just to stay afloat. I have a really strong memory of waiting in a line behind some older women bitching about “that asshole” (talking about trump), but then ending with “he’s been great for my investments though” and it just really exemplified American liberalism to me

Oh god oh fuck he’s got Stalins giant spoon

I hate this so much. This country is unsalvageable

Imagine defending a clearly broken undemocratic system set up by slave owners

Speaking as a non-american, the only way to avoid burgerlands nosedive into fascism would take so much more work and would definitely involve losing the senate. To me, you have to completely remake the Supreme Court and senate, and part of that is to always attack them and their legitimacy. Every democratic spokesperson should be bring up how corrupt and unaccountable these institutions are

Like, open up criminal cases against Clarence Thomas and Alito over their corruption. Same with manchin. Every one of these ghouls have done criminal acts. Even if you don’t win the court cases (and you won’t), you’ve dragged these peoples names into the mud and will help expose the flaws in both Congress and the courts. Get a majority of people mad enough that they shut down the country through strikes and demonstrations and you’ll suddenly find the remaining judges and congresspeople a lot more amenable.

Now, you’ll have thought up a ton of reasons why this won’t work. So have I, and the major reason to me is that most of the democrats are the same kind of garbage as the republicans, along with Americans being incredibly docile except when they’re murdering each other plus a million other reasons. So fuck both parties, vote or don’t, I don’t really care, but don’t expect me to be impressed by joe Biden

Crosswalk buttons and hold open/close door buttons in elevators are just there to give an illusion of control
