Democrats are not leftists, or even left wing
Democrats are not leftists, or even left wing
A very good number of people that claim they are left wing are in fact liberals in disguise. They think they are left wing because they liked Bernie, or believe that Democrats are left wing. A majority of those on the actual left do not identify as 'left' they usually identify as socialist, communist, anarchist, etc. rarely left wing.
And the ones that are usually nasty in their responses are those faux left Democrats that get triggered when they hear something they don't like.
Wishful thinking
It's hard to tax income if there's no reported income
In my case shes not wrong
I haven't heard about any Senate hearings for election interference. Something about not biting the hand that feeds you?
The governments solution will be to start offering 40 year mortgages. Do nothing to make housing affordable, just extend the time to pay it off like they've done with auto loans going from 60 months to 72 months terms.
*Milton Friedman
And every president since Reagan, including him.
He better hop to it, hes only got 7 more months.
When they havent changed the qualifiers for poverty in decades, it makes it look like it has decreased. The simple fact that our wages are stagnant, housing is unaffordable, our quality of life has significantly diminished.
The total amount I paid for my house in 1992 would not even be enough to cover the down payment for that same property today.
Took over the Democrats? Bill Clinton gleefully gave them the party and theyve been shifting further to the right since
Biden/Harris still continuing to send weapons to a country committing war crimes like denying aid to civilians is against US and international law.
No one gives a flying fuck what he says.
Even where there is no prospect of achieving their election the workers must put up their own candidates to preserve their independence, to gauge their own strength and to bring their revolutionary position and party standpoint to public attention. They must not be led astray by the empty phrases of the democrats, who will maintain that the workers’ candidates will split the democratic party and offer the forces of reaction the chance of victory. All such talk means, in the final analysis, that the proletariat is to be swindled. The progress which the proletarian party will make by operating independently in this way is infinitely more important than the disadvantages resulting from the presence of a few reactionaries in the representative body. If the forces of democracy take decisive, terroristic action against the reaction from the very beginning, the reactionary influence in the election will already have been destroyed

Poverty is a policy choice.
Musk can go fuck himself.
Cue Lucy VanPelt holding football meme
Same capitalists trying the same failed tactics of voter suppression.
Every one of his perspectives of capitalism and it's bourgeoisie governments still rings true.
That reads, and their entire feed always reads as if it's written by some teenage fangirl
For what it's worth I say no
Your solution to defeating the duopoly is continuing giving them power and participating in it?
Then promptly sends a few billion more in money and weapons.
With weapons and money provided by the US. This must be what Harris meant with 'Joy™'
Look at them not paying taxes
Despite them enabling the tax laws which allow them to pay no taxes. This is more political theater
The only voice in America is money, and we don't have it. If our voice mattered we wouldn't be in several proxy wars, there wouldnt be 750k homeless, there wouldn't be 69% living paycheck to paycheck, there wouldnt be marginalized communities
We saw how being indebted to the donor class paid out with Obama.
If centrists ever listened to leftists we would have never had trump as president. But their arrogance and hubris has convinced them they know what's best.
They will always blame someone else for their hubris with no introspection
Especially when their donors are the same donors to the GOP
Rings true in practice
It's always next time, like a carrot dangled in front of voters to lure them to the polls, only to be shit on, again.
It's not just teens, this old fuck is making good money doing it
we suck at picking candidates.
The issue is voters don't pick the candidates, the DNC does. Then the party will rally behind the hand picked candidate and the public follows behind
won't notice
Implies future tense. It's been gone forever
Building on that comment, we don't need a president who likes to stomp out students right to free speech by implying that those students are pro- Hamas, backed by Iran and Anti Semitic.
The RNC is slowly being dissolved and will be promptly replaced by the DNC as the dominant conservative party.
It is selective because those are pretty significant issues to be selective about. When she is in a position of authority like she was in California, she is very right-wing. She's very Draconian she's very authoritarian.
Dems have always been more dangerous, they hide among the marginalized as allies until they are ready to strike
Lesser evil is still evil, and small acceptable levels of evil over the last 50 years has grown into an enormous evil. It has produced people like Biden and Trump as being viable options.
'lesser evil' relies on a constant hypothetical worse future so you dont focus on the horrible present. It keeps you fighting for a mythical future so you don't demand better now.
This is the epitome of why Democrats hate Trump. He says the quiet things out loud. He has said 'I dont care about you. I just want your vote.'
This article confirms this, the Princeton study from 2012 confirms this. Several sources have confirmed politicians don't care about us, only the monied class
No one should vote for them, but what you do is your business.
