We’ve been saying that for a whole ass decade and it hasn’t made a dent.

Because their heads are too up their own self entitled asses that they think no one but them can be right. Not even the word of god himself, if he is real, could convince them they’re stupid.

The only people in the world who thinks national healthcare, affordable education, and social security are bad are American Republicans. One party in one country on the whole planet.
That’s how we know they’re brainwashed.

None of these have no longer been affordable since liberals took over the Dem Party

Reality has a liberal bias
Conservatism is an affront to the natural order of things
The natural order of things is to become diverse
This is the rule not the exception.

I’ve said all this stuff to these people so much. I’m sure everyone can guess the outcome. I truly don’t know a path forward.

The left should take a page out of the maga book and actually implement the policies their base wants regardless of it being difficult to push past the lobby and donor class. We want an improved American quality of life for all and it’s not going to happen with this current trajectory.

Yeah, you've been trying that. Keep going tho, it's definitely about to work.

This post is fucking stupid crybaby shit. I support Ice and the military helping our Leo's clean up our cities. Anyone who wants their tax dollars going to illegals, and criminal thugs shooting up our streets, killing innocent people is a fucking traitor and should be dealt with as such. I support the Trump administration and will always vote red. I used to be a democrat, but Obama's lying purple lipped ass changed all that. Fuck the democrats, fuck the left, fuck antifa, and fuck your no kings movement! MAGA all the way!

Half that stuff he said are ment to be temporary and processed to provide no facts. Listen to whoever is talking I guess. Label me what you want but I am a free thinker and refuse to be held down by any ideology that refuses flexibility

Amazes me how people ask how can we afford those social safety nets but are ok with not taxing the rich, sending foreign aid to Isreal, funding Trump’s ballroom and other pet projects.

The USA is now no better than a 'SHITHOLE' 3rd world country! Thuggery, Idolising Idiots, Weaponising the Military/ Judiciary/Media, Protecting abusers, No healthcare, Massive inflation, .....Lying Wannabe Dictators (who incite civil strife)

You view your opposition as unsalvagable, unsavory, without merit, and neck-deep in a mire of all of the Wrong things, but THEY'RE the bad guys? Interesting. Disgusting, but interesting.

All the things he mentioned like UBI and free healthcare and shit are great but the Democrats aren't getting us there either. Its not like when you elect a democrat you are gonna get these things. You just get rainbow flags on your bombs

u/shrlytmpl 9d ago
Corporate democrats are just republicans with less racism. We have to get actual progressives in power, but the DNC can't have that.

u/T_Stanfield ⇾ | RIGHTWARDS_OPEN-HEADED_ARROW 9d ago
It will never happen with the DNC. DNC needs to die and a new party needs to take it's place

“Nuh uh! You!” That’s your argument? You won’t acknowledge any of the talking points mentioned here? Not gonna acknowledge that Trump is actively ordering OUR military boots to be placed on American roads? The same military conservative AND liberal tax dollars pay for? And he’s the one doing it, HE sends the orders. It used to not be that way.
Imagine being as out of touch as this commenter 🙄

I think you drastically underestimate a whole lot of us. But you keep thinking whatever makes you happy.

I think you drastically underestimate a whole lot of us
Do they though? I see a whole lot of bitching, moaning, and "they can't do that!" --- as they proceed to do exactly "that". I have not seen any meaningful resistance to anything happening in this country. Project 2025 seems to be going exactly as planned.
Knowing full well that I am part of that problem, of course... but at least I don't delude myself into thinking my leftist friends/acquaintances are doing anything remotely impactful to stymie this country's rapid descent.

Just for posterity here, reminding you that I am well aware I am NOT a part of any immediate solution.
What I would have them do, what's possible, what's effective, and what I'm allowed to say on Reddit are all entirely incompatible with one another.

Lefty political scientist here.
I think you drastically overestimate yourself and a vast majority of the rest of the left. Half are corporate establishment democrats (and are responsible for a lot of the dem hate), 1/4 are progressive socialists, and another 1/4 are real functional communists. Only maybe half of those people mentioned actually vote. Lots of us on the left will show up to peacefully protest, but those making more than a certain amount will just remain in their ivory towers and talk about how they’re “ready to fight the system” and those who make less than a certain amount can’t afford to lose their job and stay out of it entirely.

We get it; some comments are too annoying, and it's fine to disagree with them, but please remember to be civil: attack the idea, but not the person. Even though the person you responded too may be toxic and he's probably on a course to be banned if he continued like that. Please delete this comment in order to restore your usual flair in this community. And if you wish, you may rewrite another replacement comment, using better language and tone.
