It was Democrats who brought in the cops to remove the Pro-Palestine camps. They put down the BLM movement. They killed the railworker strike. They failed to enforce any protections for COVID.
If you give them your vote, you're endorsing that. They didn't earn your vote! Vote 3rd party then join an org.
Tim Walz, currently Harris' running mate, deployed the United States Army to Minneapolis to crush BLM and it's terrifying to me that that doesn't register with Democrats at all in any way.
Feels like everything related to the 2020 protests has been completely memoryholed except by conservatives who are still crying about "defund the police".
It really does. It was only four years ago, it was an uprising of global scope and historic scale, and it's already been erased from public and political discourse. Even occupy had more cultural impact. : |
Biden has crushed union strikes and protests all over the country and no one gives a shit. Somehow that is more fertile ground than the energized populace that came out to fight everything Trump did? People even gave a fuck about him pardoning a goddamned sheriff! Meanwhile Biden gives billions to cops and no one gives a shit. When Trump bombed Syria at least some of you flipped out (though most started talking about how "presidential" he was finally being. Sickening.) now with an ongoing genocide you can't even pretend to care. These are the conditions you believe to be better for organizing? Organizing for what? Next election where we have to vote for the democrats just this one time if you're any indication.
Tim Walz sicced the fucking military on BLM protesters in 2020!
I agree we need a socialist revolution. I just feel like it will be easier to organize something like that if we still have a democracy to influence.
It will be harder to organize either way.

Well the American liberals applied their color palette:
I'm assuming you meant "defund", because chuds are all about defending the police.
shit, yeah
The problem here is assuming that we currently have one.

Can you explain why you feel that?
