literally "because girlboss" :eric-andre:
What zero materialism does to a mf.....or you know the most basic understanding of history and politics from even the most worthless lukewarm socdem analysis. And she repeated this position unchanged more than a year ago. Idk how desperately starved some american socialists still are for parasocial connections with politicians and to believe in "the mostly good politicians fighting on our side " and how they delude themselves into not seeing she and the others are unsalvagable and of debatable value/use at this point
like, this hillariously bad

It's just incredibly depressing to see someone express genuinely good political views for the first time in my adult life and then watch them kinda collapse on themselves like the empty suits they inevitably become.
Every movement needs leaders and icons and role-models. Would have been nice if she'd been one.
Because they're careerist hacks. These people don't give a fuck about you, it's a game to get higher on the ladder, and this sort of pablum is classic management-speak. They have savvy media teams that know how to use the right cultural signals to get the rubes excited, but in 1-on-1 with their mentors, it's all shit like this. People like Omar generally do good things, but fundamentally they're still the enemy.
Fucking lmao that makes this so much more deeply pathetic. The neolib queen of global south destruction has a better take. The absolute state of the "squad".
Absolute :funny-clown-hammer: shit when Clinton has a much better take than you
I don't have an account there [Hexbear] guys.
Honestly that site scares me.

Forget American "DemSocs" (really succdems, tbh), they'll just keep disappointing you.
Exactly. None of them want to abolish capitalism. If they did then they wouldn’t be in the government at that level. Regardless of whatever critiques they have with the system.
The only squad Thatcher should be in front of is a firing squad.
:margaret-thatcher: :bathroom:
Her insta story the other day was regarding the Chinese "cop" torturing Uighurs. Disappointing.
The one in the wrong uniform with the changing story and the patch that appeared to have a typo? lmao
To be specific, the patch was that of a normal cop and not that of a prison guard.
Margaret Thatcher is on my list of politicians I wish I'd had a chance to meet, too.
:the-gunman:
Going to pretend to be a Hitlerite, and when my kid puts me in the :pit: , I'll know they turned out right.
Honestly I get it, representation does matter, but like all things there is limits to it. It's a little embarrassing saying Thatcher is someone to look up to, especially now a days being able to know everything she really did.
Also all your favs are problematic~~
