Haha what a joke. That's why I asked for raw numbers. If you go beyond the sensational headline from "united we dream"
growing from roughly $442 million to now well over $470 million.
Meanwhile Trump increased ICE budget to 50 BILLION. Not millions. BILLIONS. 50
What a joke this conversation is
How much did Biden increase it by? Give the raw numbers. And what were the funds earmarked for?
You're so full of shit.
Go back to watching Hassan Piker stream from his 1200$ hotel room in Cuba.
The rest of us are going to work on rebuilding. We know what you're doing.
I mean...you keep confirming what I assumed to be true. There is no plan. No plan to build political power. No plan to build coalitions. Nothing. Just posting feel good diatribes on Lemmy from your iPhone. You want me to grow a vegetable garden? That's it? Cool.
The 50bn dollar expansion to ICE happened unde Republicans and is larger than the military budget of many countries. Don't you dare try to both sides this because Biden gave ICE a bump. No amount of comparisons will wash away the cruelty and damage of this administration.
Ah gotcha. I gotta figure it out for you. We'll get back to me when you have strategy, coalitions, anything. Right now it seems we have a collection of edge lord teenagers on Lemmy wearing che Guevara shirts.
Such a collection of cliches and platitudes....are you going to say anything of substance at some point? Do you have a coherent plan of action... Or is it business as usual on Lemmy here?
At some point you grow out of your teenage years (maybe) and you realize not all of history is exclusively framed through class consciousness and this type of reductive powerlessness and inaction is why we have children in detention centers now eating moldy food. But thanks to the privileged lefties pontificating on social platforms like you we can ensure the cycle of cruelty continues. Keep it up.
You have power to be inactive, that's for sure.
Im now convinced more than ever that the left will never gain any traction in the US when I see posts like these. It's clear lefties are not interested in building political power but rather just opining endlessly about the so called dualism of American politics while sipping Starbucks and ordering delivery on their iphone
What a meaningless word salad. Give concrete steps. Go.
I use blender + some addons for work (I work as a landscape architect).
Sure. I love these empty platitudes. They feel good on paper, don't they? I too am growing a vegetable garden. Let's jerk each other off while we read some leninist theory. Cool cool. I know that's about as much lefties can get done anyway.
