cw violence
Got a lot less patience for this shit after listening to the story of that six year old Palestinian little girl bleeding out in the back of her car surrounded by her dead relatives bc she got shot by a tank and the IDF blew up the ambulance the red crescent sent after a 3 hour wait to receive an approved route from the israelis
Yeah, these fucking losers could've just said nothing and it would've been better
They'd still be complicit in the genocide but they may as well be Fetterman with the way they're slobbering over genocide joe like this
This is just disgusting and honestly even though I hate him more, I genuinely have a bit more respect for the ogre himself for being open about his support for the genocide instead of doing this weasel bullshit
Oh it's so much worse. She was on the phone with emergency services the whole time
I knew this thing was awful but that story was just so visceral and enraging. Real John Brown hours
Oh I remember listening to call and the person talking to the kid. It was really harrowing.
Yeah fuck all these hand waving liberals and their constant grand standing. " Vote for biden or else trump will do away with everything " = we will never do anything nor stop anyone else from doing it, but we will cry.
Aoc's turn from dem social who is begrudgingly pro Biden to completely neolib in the span of 4 years is insane
Takes a rare streak of courage to fight for the public good and against your own material interests
It's easy to be a "socialist" when you're slinging cocktails for subsistence wages. Much harder when you're being interviewed on late night, wearing designer gowns to the met gala, etc.
This is beautiful. I’m actually inspired to make a gore piece based on this.
The people saying we can "push left" these people were lying this whole time?
They told us we can push Biden to the left and it turns out we can't even keep AOC to stay on the "left"
morally: fucked
tactically: inane
strategically: disastrous
yep, its radlib time
I think even calling her a radlib is too much credit
i downgraded it from socdem already, think her cred is enough for radlib classification
If Biden doesn't win, AOC can't get a press photo of her crying outside of the Gaza fence. Think of the fundraising.
AOC has a Trump-like cult of personality around her. There are people who think everything she says and does is pure genius, even when it completely betrays all supposed leftist principles.
All because she played Amogus once
but she's just doing what the unions want her to do
I think it’s more than that. She positioned herself early on as an Everyman type of person who’s just like your typical millennial/zoomer with playing on stream a part of it.
People who are new to politics see AOC as the strongest left-wing voice. Her being a woc probably also helps.
I'm glad that someone is standing up for our poor president. God bless you AOC
She's aiming to become both the first latino woman and the youngest vice-president, and shortly after president in U.S history
it'd be funny if they were both hooplahing for biden on a gamble of becoming president via the vice-presidential seat but biden decides in a complete upset declares Nancy Pelosi as his new Vice-presidential runningmate, wins office and dies on day one
Pelosi gets the heart-attack gun on day two and then we welcome President Chump Fuckley (R, Missouri) because Democrats didn't bother to get their succession order lined up.
Very bizarre hill to die on given that even Obungler wants Biden to resign
You know, at least if AOC and Bernie sold out to Biden for his (empty) promises to withhold weapons from Israel or push harder for a ceasefire… I would respect that. But what did they actually get? Promises to make marginal changes to the Supreme Court? Just pathetic.
“If you’re falling out of a coconut tree, God bless you” - AOC
The article doesn’t even mention the strange claim AOC makes about Ohio making deadlines for the ballot before the DNC announces their nomination and how the republicans could challenge them for replacing the nominee. Odd behavior.
They changed that law but the feeling is still embedded in libs everywhere, so the talking point has done what it needed to
With a conservative governor and legislature too IIRC
That's how dead they think Biden is, they went out of their way to make sure he was the candidate
wouldn't expedited timeframe make his candidacy more likely? Now dems have two weeks to plot their plots
This spring, Ohio lawmakers changed the state's deadline to make the ballot from Aug. 7 to Sept. 1 because Democrats scheduled their convention to nominate Biden for 12 days after the initial deadline. To ensure Biden made the ballot, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine called the GOP-controlled Legislature into a special session.
Original discourse was on him being on the ballot at all, not just the defacto candidate, and I don't think he just automatically wins as the incumbent (so someone could really push on him here)
Either way, even if he misses it the SC had that ruling that states cannot disqualify presidential candidates that might help him (unless they really wanna sow chaos over a foregone conclusion)
Oh yeah sure that's gonna be the only reason dems don't win Ohio...
Were dems gonna win Ohio anyway? It's barely competitive anymore.
was AOC all along
