I've been noticing how shitty that sub's gotten. They post this every day.

They say the next leopard to eat their faces could have been a woman 😲

The democratic party is 100% captured by bourgeois interests. The political battlefield is sort of drawn with these two parties that are both completely bourgeois but there are new issues arising all the time with events. Which ever one of these parties identifies a new issue will propose a solution from a fundamentally bourgeois worldview and they may not be particularly interested in carrying these proposals out if they are not fundamentally bourgeois concerns. The first actor of the two parties may propose basically the same solution, and the second one may tinker with it, but they operate on the same framework. As long as issues are defined by these parties and their various propaganda networks, bourgeois concerns will always be considered a higher priority than issues that affect normal proletarian human beings and solutions will be the ones that benefit bourgeois interests. And the propaganda channels have turned the average american into an open nazi with respect to the border and Gaza.

For example, if there is a liquidity crisis in the banking sector, it will be dealt with immediately. But why is a liquidity crisis in the banking sector a more urgent problem than the 34 million Americans dealing with food insecurity? Liquidity crises can cause serious economic dysfunction but we already have serious economic dysfunction when 34 million people are food insecure in the presence of such abundance.

A socialist movement needs to do a better job discovering the real issues that real people face and propose and agitate solutions to these problems that strengthen proletarian class power before the bourgeois media and parties can poison the well with their stupid bullshit. As long as we allow our political discourse to be carried out in the existing framework of bourgeois parties and bourgeois propaganda networks we cannot possibly win. But if we are surfacing these problems quickly, it will undermine the legitimacy of a media that doesn't cover anything and political parties that do not deal with them.

The peaceful transfer of power is part of the core platform and one of the few things they can actually deliver on.

YouTube deletes nearly everything I post, no matter how boring.

What are they mad about here? Trump is just carrying out the Biden/Harris policy by ensuring Israel can defend itself from Palestinian hospitals and children.

Do you ever think about how our intellectual ancestors a hundred years ago used to say it was "socialism or barbarism" and how we now live in that barbarism? And now we say we have to do something about climate change right now or it's going to be like, very bad for human civilization, and all we have on our side is these fucking liberals? You campaigned with the Cheneys and lost and now it's just fuck the working class.

I wonder how many democrat politicians vote republican.

It's funny that it's been well over a year and I have never seen a single article referring to X without clarifying that we're talking about the social media platform formerly known as Twitter and I have never seen a person refer to it as X.

I think he cleared the very low bar of being better for unions than Obama, Clinton, or Carter, despite literally breaking a rail strike. So that's the best in over 50 years. I have found myself wondering if I might not be a communist if he had gotten elected in 2008 instead of Obama because he genuinely seemed more open to making progressives happy at first. Then the progressive stuff expired and he reimposed austerity on his own economic achievements while big corporations raked in profits

She was the lead on forcing Biden to drop out. She should have done it earlier and she shouldn't have assumed there would be an open convention. Biden was always going to fuck everything up but Nancy is one of the people I blame the least.

I agree with the author of this essay on most things.

People aren't centrists. They want big changes to things. They don't want a lot of nothing. They want one big thing. It's a different thing for everybody. And they want somebody that they think will fight for them. Donald Trump may be a dumb liar but he has presented himself every day as someone that will fight for his people. Kamala told everybody on the left to fuck off, the genocide will continue and we're going to have a sensible border wall. And she was going to put a republican in her cabinet. Am I losing my god damn mind? Does the average democrat voter want a republican cabinet?

If I won't get what I want on a set of issues I care a lot about and consider the highest priority at the moment under Kamala or Trump, why would I vote for either of them?

The only thing I honestly give Trump a point for is having the good instincts to make fun of Kamala for campaigning with Liz Cheney and touting the Dick Cheney endorsement.

Wow, very progressive. Good job California liberals.

Trump's probably going to get 312 electoral votes when it's official, compared to 304 in 2016. He won the popular vote by a 4.45% and a republican hasn't won the popular vote by that much since 1988. People do not like Donald Trump. I bet he'll enter office with an approval rating below 50%.
