Empire isn’t profitable to the workers. What’s good for the genersl population is not what’s good for the beneficiaries of empire. Ask Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin, Haliburton and ExxonMobil if they’d rather Israel not exist.
I misread you, then, my sincere apologies. Seeing a lot of defeatism and it frustrates me because that didn’t help a single bit in 2016 and only made 2020 worse. I agree on your point about the AFL CIO, which is why I’m fond of PSL, they’re very principled domestically, regarding trans rights and on firmly anti-imperialist foreign policy and they’re not part of the Washington aligned labor unions. The comrades I look up to the most are engaged in unions and organizing there.
Ok, then stay home or keep voting democrat, but stop pretending you want change without doing anything to bring it about. Individualism and conformism is exactly what got the US here and both parties would be very happy if y’all stayed that way.
Politics is what happens before and after you cast the ballot. The vote itself might as well be a formality.
Only one thing I disagree with, they’re not taking minorities for granted, they’re holding them for ransom. They deliberately refuse to codify civil liberties and anti corruption measures in case they’d like to use them.
I don’t know how to tell you this, but the third who voted democrat are at fault for repeatedly letting dems know they’d vote blue no matter who.
Not everyone wants to vote in Mussolini to avoid getting Hitler.
Just gotta get yourself a foreign sponsor to start sabotaging the US and get the rest of the world to stop selling you food, oil, or consumer goods like the US did to the DDR.
It was getting late for libs to start bringing up socialism to diagnose their fascist oligarchy. The USSR collapsed in the way most socialist states have collapsed: at gunpoint, after decades of siege, sabotage and outright insurrectionism sponsored or directly enacted by the US. It’s no accidentt that Vietnam, the DPRK and China have robust security states, you can’t survive the US without them.
So this probably means staffers had been loudly voicing their concerns and democrats were sabotaging themselves lmao
Can’t get reelected, might as well start a nuclear war, maybe that’ll help them for a 2028 bid let’s go
there are already sizable third parties in the US, such as PSL, DSA and the Green Party. PSL in particular is always active in unions, protests and community programs, and lately they’ve shown they trust younger members to be out there and adjusting to the demands of the members.
The ones who voted for Trump voted because they think they’re not talking about them. The horrible violence will be visited upon whomever is to blame, and they don’t know anyone who’s to blame, so they have nothing to fear.
Dems do that shit too, what they’re ok with are death squads in Gaza, Nicaragua, Ukraine, because the Americans orchestrating and perpetrating those crimes against humanity would certainly never come back and apply their knowledge at home, where they live, surely. What’s more american than that?
This is fucking rich lmao.
You know who I always see busting their ass protesting, striking, aiding their fellow worker? Not fucking democrats, I’ll tell you that. It’s always third parties who get demonized for not voting for a fascist and then told they get what they deserve when they’re out there serving as a shield against the worst of fascist violence. Americans are so politically illiterate it’d be funny if y’all would go down alone and not threaten to burn the rest of us down with you.
Why the fuck do you ask anything if you’re gonna fire out the canned phrase regardless of the answer
Lemme tell the millions of children that have gone through the migrant camps, separated from their family, some of whom have disappeared, that their jailors aren’t fascists. Let me tell the latino women who have been forcibly neutered without their knowledge or consent that they’re trivializing fascism. Let’s go to those who were detained in Abu Ghraib, if any of them are still alive, that their abduction, rape, and torture by laughing US soldiers doesn’t count, it’s what happens to americans that’s worrying.
Honestly, this is the fucking smugness of somebody who knows they’re safe as long as they mask, because they’ve been safe as fascists have massively incarcerated and enslaved black people, as they’ve made ghettos of bipoc neighborhoods, as far right terrorists have shot up black churches and gay bars and lynchings are back on the up and up. Because that was trivial, what’s not trivial is if it can happen to them. Fuck dems fr.
I thought it was perfection, and not about lesser evil? You dems are like that fucking patrick with the wallet meme
That’d require dems getting off their armchair. We’re gonna see people who voted third party protesting, striking, organizing and engaging in mutual aid, while dems wait for the next time the corporations say it’s time to choose between the good cop and the bad cop.
They’re going “enjoy fascism you idiots!” because they know they ain’t gonna do shit, and they never planned to do shit. Their complacency and tolerance of fascists (as long as they’re the stick to their carrot) is the reason the US is in this fucking mess to begin with.
Democrats are alright with failure, they’re gonna make serious bank anyway. Their voters, though? Idk why they act like they are part of this campaign, when they might as well have been cardboard cutouts as far as the DNC is concerned. They’re the worst kind of politicucked.
“The democrats and republicans have made sure you can’t elect anybody else, the solution is to vote for them to change it!”
Americans are so fucking cooked lmao
I know american adults have the reading comprehension of other countries’ 8 year olds but I guess the democrat playbook of performative martyrdom when presented with criticism is easier than introspection.
Who’d a thunk allowing a genocidal, theocratic ethnostate access to nuclear weapons would ever lead to issues?
Anyway enough about the US
