The Kingdom of Conscience will be exactly as it is now. Democrats don’t really have beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child’s toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded.

Worse, at least republicans are honest about how fucking evil they are
Indeed the results are the same under both, but of the two at least Republicans have the virtue of honesty. Democrats lack even that.
It’s not about bad or good even, it’s about having “principles” and acting on them. Democrats in general, for better and worse, are permissive to all kinds of stuff but have a real hard time agreeing on where lines are drawn and picking hills to fight for and die on together.
It’s like a kid having a tantrum on the floor of a public place and the parent going “sorry this is horrible but this just how he acts” and doing nothing to correct them or change the situation when they totally can.
Republicans don’t really have that problem, even when it’s objectively the dumbest shit ever.
It’s an extremely transparent good cop/bad cop routine, quit being gullible
No one asked a tankie… anything ever
Lol k, stay stupid patriot
Yes, I’m such a PaTriOt that I am deeply ashamed of most of the things the US does. But hey, at least I’m not so shallow that I think cool red logos justify disgusting and brutal authoritarianism under a different name.
Your shame is as worthless as your political action lol, authoritarianism is a thought-terminating buzzword employed by spineless liberals too terrified of the idea of wielding power for good to actually do anything to help
Yes, I’m such a PaTriOt that I am deeply ashamed of most of the things the US does.
Your shame and a dollar would be worth a dollar.
But hey, at least I’m not so shallow that I think cool red logos justify disgusting and brutal authoritarianism under a different name.
Read like, any book from outside the States. Or speak to someone who actually lived in these “brutal authoritarian” states.
Oh go away accelerationist
Weird. It’s almost like it’s tankie/Russian propaganda. “Both sides are bad and the same and it’s hopeless! Give up.”
Not everyone who criticizes the dem party is a malicious. They are saying dems arent really trying and are actively blocking real change. Judging by how the party is treating Mamdani, its a valid take.
Totally on board with your premise, they do need to punch up as much as they can. And it looks like they’re trying to do so this round of shutdowns.
Nonetheless, this ultimately comes down to us. All of us. We can’t just sit here behind a computer and meme ourselves out of this disaster. We have to get out in the streets. We have to yell get mad and be angry. We have to hit them where they feel it. We have to organize. Get with upset farmers, get with the military vets whose benefits have been cut, get with the middleclass milquetoast moms who are starting to feel like something isn’t right with their grocery bills.
Each and every individual one of us is a single drop in the ocean, but, if we all move in the same direction, we become a crashing tsunami.
I’m Canadian, you guys should have been doing this since Regan, but better late than never I suppose
Oh shut up haha. The CA government is headed down the same path last time I checked. Fuckin America Lite up there.
Yeah, kinda wish you guys hadn’t decided to export your particular brand of capitalistic rot by osmosis. Our mistake was integrating with you guys as a policy and when the move was made outspoken politicians called it for what it was.
NAFTA fucked up every single country who signed it. Reagan and Mulroney were assholes.
The pot says to the kettle.
Never said we’re blameless but we did manage to avoid electing maple flavored trump even once, nevermind twice
The Democrats forced Trump to do all this. They’re the real bad guys!
The Democrats forced Trump to do all this.
The Democrats helped Trump do all this.
Almost as much as protests voters helped Trump do all this. Almost as much as the both sides are the same rhetoric helped Trump do all this.
Almost as much as protests voters helped Trump do all this.
Gee, if only there were some way democrats could have got those voters back on board. But they were too insignificant to matter until centrists needed someone to blame for the results of their unwillingness to represent people not named cheney or netanyahu.
When the electorate is polarized, you win by energizing your base to get more people to the polls. Abandoning your base one vulnerable group at a time not only fails to curry favor with the fascists that centrists desperately want to befriend, it also depresses turnout from your base as well. But since centrists like moving to the right and don’t want to stop, they treat their positions as sacrosanct and it is the voters who must capitulate. After all, our politicians capitulate by example so frequently.
If they were too insignificant to listen to, you don’t get to blame them. If they are significant enough to blame, they’re kingmakers and you should have been listening to them.
protests voters
Which state flipped based on protest voters?
Do you have a source that shows protest voters didn’t have any impact?
At least as much evidence as you have that they did.
How many voters voted in 2020 compared to 2024?
https://votingrightslab.org/2024/11/25/how-state-election-laws-shaped-voting-patterns-in-2024/
Huge changes in voting law between those two election cycles
Idk if you’re familiar with the phrase “proving a negative” or “burden of proof” but you should maybe try looking them up and learning a little bit about why you’re wrong
There’s a .ml after your name. Nothing you say is valid or taken seriously in any way
That’s a fun way to get out of answering a legitimate question: ad hominem attacks.
“You’re from place i don’t like” is a dogshit argument and you know it
“Whatabout protest voters, whatabout third parties” lol quit blaming other people for your failures
?
Don’t play stupid
People who chose not to vote for Harris are just as much failures as the Democratic party. Take some responsibility.
Democratic party could have won in a landslide for speak up for their base who didn’t want a genocide, but no, they wanted it and stuck to it.
Democrats are 100% to blame. And fuck you and everyone who tries to put the blame on people for having a conscience. If they had any semblance of representing their base, they fucked it up themselves.
Democrats put themselves in a scenario where Trump would win and you’re surprised he won?
Yeah bro those people must be feeling so amazing about themselves and their pure and righteous conscience everyday that Trump runs rampant and destroys the country even more, and don’t even get me started on trans issues
AT LEAST GAZA IS SAVED THOUGH :) fuck off and grow up. You are both to blame because you both are fucking idiots. Democrats should’ve done a better job and split with Israel, because dipshits like you needed more of a reason to vote against obvious nazism
AT LEAST GAZA IS SAVED THOUGH :)
At least democrats didn’t have to abandon unconditional genocide support. At least they didn’t have to follow the Leahy law. They’ll make up every excuse under the sun to block progressive legislation, but straight up ignore the law to sell weapons for genocide.
