      Is this a Neera alt? Why is it getting up voted? Am I being psyop'd? This has absolutely nothing to do with trans rights or what the Biden admin wants

        Feels like somebody was copy/pasta'ing the shit I was reading on :reddit-logo: about how "Biden is the HaRm ReDuCtIoN" candidate.

      Never thought I'd read a comment like this from a username I have so much respect for. Biden/his admin does not give a SHIT about trans people. Does not give a SHIT about minorities. There are still kids in cages remember. Doubt if he gives a SHIT about US citizens who don't own capital. And you think hes playing 5d chess to help trans people. And hes doing it like THIS? The fuck.

      for me the dems are the harm reduction candidate only because they're neck deep in slava ukraini

      republicans don't feel like they're above burning a few bridges and thus may prove to be able to extricate themselves from eastern europe faster than the dems. once that happens i'd imagine they will fast track the taiwan bullshit and then :stonks-up: will well and truly be in the :cool-zone:

      Somewhat Libby but there’s a nugget of truth. From the POV of the Dem leadership and their donor handlers, it’s a cynical PR move but some lower levels genuinely believe it.

      Something we should still keep in mind is that Dems not being as monstrous as their buddies is exactly the point, whether or not certain people on the ground are well-intentioned. So when leftists say “both parties are exactly the same”, we come off as out of touch to people, especially those in groups vocally targeted by Republican ghouls. Systemic evil is hard to teach to people used to seeing the world through individual evil (hence “Putler”).

      Something that’s been useful is playing off the assumption that Dems are “good guys” but pointing out that even in that case, they’re so ineffective they may as well not give a fuck (which is truth for Dems as a collective body, some individuals be damned).
