So glad we handed over all levers of power to these morons.

Fucking fascist ghouls. Good on Mamdani for not putting up with it, though it’s horrifying that this is already a fucking concern.

Center-left, if we are using those definitions for far-left and left, would probably be social democracy - ie a genuine attempt to redistribute wealth within the framework of a capitalist system.

Center would be Rhineland capitalism - attempts to make a capitalist system with basic controls and direction for the interests of the people or the state.

Center-right would probably be whatever the fuck incoherent shite America has been doing the past 100 years or so, where there’s regulations and a welfare state but the government itself is constantly campaigning against them and shaming its users.

Right would then be the Reaganite trickle-down fever-dream where laws are a suggestion and the accumulation of wealth to the elite is an end in and of itself.

Thus putting far-right as outright fascism or ancapistan.

I remember having a talk with a vet friend about this very subject. We both mused that it feels like having a fucking funeral for a deeply flawed creature that we nonetheless loved very much, and that is now shuffling around like a grotesque, insect-ridden meat puppet.

I wish I could say I was surprised.

What a dipshit fascist, attempting to be a spoiler candidate.

It’s funny. When the impeachment attempt was announced, it was roundly condemned by Very Serious Leftists as useless and, in fact, targeting Trump for something that was not actually illegal, and thus more proof of Dem complicity by engaging in ‘pointless’ symbolic action instead of ‘real’ interference.

And now that most Dem reps seem to agree with this position, many of those same Very Serious Leftists regard not supporting the impeachment attempt also as proof of Dem complicity.

Good. And fuck Cuomo for trying to split the vote despite losing the primary.

Pretty consistently it’s been reported that Iran has been increasing its capabilities to quickly create a nuclear weapon should they need to, rather than simply embarking immediately on constructing nukes.

And honestly, at this point, they’d be stupid not to, since the main negotiator (the US) of their opposing coalition has proven to be utterly unwilling to maintain any agreements regarding denuclearization for more than 4 years at a time.

I had the misfortune of hearing the opinions of some conservative family on the matter on Father’s Day.

It was the best thing since sliced bread, apparently, and Trump “deserved” it because “it’s his birthday”, while “no one” showed up for the No Kings protests.

Don’t ever be fooled into thinking that a lackluster performance will disappoint his fans.

That includes a shit ton of republicans.

In absolute numbers, maybe, but in proportional terms, I’d caution against thinking like that. The vast majority of Republicans remain in lockstep behind their Dear Leader.

I think the stupidity of the electorate is being vastly underestimated here.

The guy was dancing around like a crazy person to Ave Maria at his last rally and yelling about people eating cats and dogs on the debate. There’s no way anyone saw that and wanted that running the country save the maybe 8% of the population that are Trump Simps.

You overestimate this country.

“Trump is actually playing 4D Chess!”

Press X to doubt.

Jesus fucking Christ.

Based

Riddle me this

How does Kamala and Biden policies represent(ed) the best interest of the half of the population that they and their voters keep calling to be murdered and put in camps for being the privileged, bigoted, homophobic, sexist, racist, slave owners, Nazis, transphobic, emotionless, non empathic, oppressive source of all evil in the world?

Literally any negative adjective you can think of, any negative association, any way to dismiss, disparage or erode away any respect or appreciation they might have has been used and constantly and consistently applied to this half of the voters through the years, demonizing them to make them the imaginary enemies the Dems needed to rally against during their mandate and then again on the election cycles.

People who, might I remind you, have literally never had a (insert negative adjective here ) thought in their life, none of these supposed privileges, and are playing in a categorically non leveled field during their whole life.

Now the Dems are spending millions doing meetings in luxury hotels to see how they can analyze social media usage of patterns and speech to “connect” with that half of the population

Basically the same as they tried at the end of their campaign

You have no faith in America?

For these half of the population, that’s basically all you need to win them

You want to know who benefits from the Dems policies? Look at the majority on power in their structures, who runs their committees, who is the main beneficiary of the DEI programs and the majority of the complainers:

Middle age white women with a god complex.

The Karentocracy is and has been eating the democrats away and you guys know it and are doing squat to avoid it

Now tell me this is not the case and has absolutely not been happening and keep blaming Kamala’s defeat and betrayal on the Americans and how racist and sexist they are

Lord.

I wish I could believe that.

I mean, don’t get me wrong - it would’ve been a better route to take in any case, whether it delivered the campaign from defeat or not.

But I have no faith in my fellow Americans to choose politicians or policies that represent their best interests.
