      Someone said on Twitter that Biden probably thinks that being non-white or female = progressive.

        The msm is already talking about how groundbreaking it is that he nominated an immigrant for Homeland Security and a woman as head of intelligence. This is going to be a real shitty next 4 years.

          Beware the first blacks, the first women, the first immigrants, the first LGBT, all these people only get there because they're willing to stomp all over oppressed people and labor in general. They're absolute killers most of the time.

            A tactic used even by old empires. When you have conquered a region, put one of their own people in charge (who is loyal to you) and they are more likely to obey

          We will all be bludgeoned to death with idpol, eh? The inevitable open fascism afterwards will almost feel like a relief.

            In my dumbdumb brain, I still kinda feel like the first female president will be a Republican simultaneously deriding and exploiting idpol against a dour, neoliberal scold of a candidate

        Progressive is a useless term because it’s so amorphous. Hell, the old eugenicists at the turn of the century called themselves progressives.

        Call yourself a socialist or a communist. And don’t let the libs define those words into oblivion either, like Sanders did
