The court is doing its job. Empowering fascists and kneecapping bringing them to justice when they aren’t in power. The point of a system is what it does.

One good thing that comes with the half mast flags is that it reminded me every time I saw them that Kirk was dead and it made me happy

I wouldn’t be sitting outside like that if I were a hateful fascist

Isn’t drake a famous pedophile?

Chronic masturbation. The corn flakes didn’t help

We live in hell

This is true if you are drawing maps. But you can mitigate it. Right now in the us it is just wholly unmitigated corruption. My state passed an amendment to have an independent nonpartisan board draw the maps but the republicans ignored the amendment and continued their bullshit of drawing maps purely for their gain.

And I’m sorry that you don’t want candidates to actually appeal to their base? The reason why republicans win is because they throw red meat to their fucking lunatic base. We don’t have abortion anymore because they actually delivered.

Using the boogie man of fascism obviously works on people like you and me, but that isnt enough. Promise something fucking inspiring for once and deliver this time instead of just giving hope.

I’m not saying it does. My personal morality forced me to vote for the Dems even though my vote doesn’t matter and I fucking loath genocidiers.

I’m just saying the vast majority of the blame lies at the feet of the people who had power to stop this. Merrick Garland, Joe Biden, and Harris. We put them in office in 2020 to fucking do something and they say on their fucking hands and did nothing. They had power. They squandered it on bullshit.

Direct your anger somewhere productive. Being angry at voters is going to get you nowhere, whereas elected leaders might notice when big cities start electing people with actual decent non neoliberal policies?

I’m sorry you think that leaders shouldn’t lead? Stand for something? Like say that the genocide in Palestine is bad? Actually try to reform the cops? Don’t pull a fascism at the border?

Harris was a dogshit candidate with a dogshit message. Everything is great! Let me tie myself to Biden, a historically unpopular incumbent that had to drop from the race late!

I voted for Harris and the like. But the reason she lost is because she failed to inspire her base. It is bullshit that anyone would blame voters for their leader’s failures.

The power differential between a random non voter and the people to blame, establishment dems, is vast. The dems who made unpopular and stupid decisions are mostly to blame for this situation. Attacking voters is just scapegoating bullshit

No I take this back. Harris was right to push for a fascist border bill and Biden was right to flood cops with money. Oh and we can’t forget enthusiastically funding genocides!

The dems really need to try to out fasc the fascists. That way they can persuade the moderate fascists! After all, progressives have no where else to go! I’m so glad Dems have so many big brained think tankers leading these extremely good strategies that always seems to work out well for us.

I too like punching down at people with no power. It would be too much for democratic leadership to learn the lessons of 2016 and 2024. Just blame progressives and people who want better things!

Anyone burning the earth for short term profits is a fucking idiot. We are all very fucked and they think that a biosphere is optional. Definitionally stupid.

All fascists are stupid and evil

Seems pretty on brand tbh

They didn’t vote. They were kids. People don’t deserve to die because 50% of their neighbors are fascists

Idk. Washington fucking loved enslaving people and killing natives. Seems like the current batch is more in line with him than I would otherwise like.

Jesus would fucking hate them at least

I was so hopefully after she picked Walz. And then she fucking chained herself to Biden and all my hope faded.

Oh fuck off Democrats.
