I keep seeing this talking point on :reddit-logo: whenever people complain about manchin, sinema or whatever other rotating villain of the week people are mad at. It's supposed to be some sort of "gotcha" or defense for these neolib ghouls...
It's glib, and it flies in the face of their other favorite response "we can walk and chew gum at the same time".
Do they honestly think people dont know republicans exist? Does it really need to be said that republicans are awful? They're not even confusing progressives and leftists for right wingers anymore.
It's just so lame, and I needed to vent about it. I need to quit going to :reddit-logo:
I wish they would get a real majority just so they don't have these excuses anymore, and they might have to actually confront the fact that the party they support doesn't care about them at all. Only problem with that is they see all these corporate handouts as wins. Look at how excited they are for these "tax breaks for green initiatives" that are in the build back better bill
Just to hammer home my point Dems will literally flip on their own positions if they think those positions become politically possible
puts on lib hat
Yeah, well Glenn greenwald is a secret Russian and salon is Marxist propaganda so you're owned.
Takes off lib hat
Remember :reddit-logo: from five years ago when chuds would get in the comments section and say stuff like "lol CNN" and libs would say it's an ad hominem to attack the source, therefore you're owned? Now they do it to literally any source that isn't CNN or MSNBC.
Ten fucking years ago. Same ghouls, same positions, same shell game.
I forget exactly where I found that, but I'm holding onto it for when someone gives me the vote-against-a-fascist shtick in 2024
They would just find 10 Joe Manchins in the Senate lmao
