  • Your reply was literally "what about this person" and you're disappointed that you're accused of whataboutism?

  • None of that's new though. The U.S. elections have been purely vibe-based for a few decades now. The policy platforms of a given candidate stopped mattering as soon as the electorate forgot how to read.

  • It would suck for the rubes who can be fooled into taking poison, but it would be kinda based if RFK just legalized everything. Reality might turn to shit, but at least we can get high however we want!

  • So 333 aid workers killed in Gaza since 2023, and a total of 281 casualties in 2024.

    Would anyone like to take a guess at which country is responsible for killing the majority of aid workers? Anyone?

  • Hey, if you're a progressive in any of these districts, try and unseat these assholes.

  • Listen

  • The people giving up are the ranking officials of the Democratic National Party. What can you realistically expect people to do when the people they thought would lead them through this are rolling over and collapsing at the first sign of pressure? For fucks sake, they're not even defending their own trans colleague!

  • Voting alone is insufficient, because in captive systems where a limited number of parties hold all political capital, you can only vote for complicit parties.

    Individual people have to run for office, and there has to be movements to get them elected, and those movements need to be more powerful than the existing parties who will attempt to suppress them.

    Honestly, at the level of organization that would be required, you'd probably just be better off ignoring the democratic process entirely, because it would take tens of millions.

  • The problem is that China absolutely lied, obfuscated data, and generally did whatever it took to make it look like their COVID response was better than reality.

    It is very, very, very likely that the COVID-19 virus originated in China, and it is also quite likely that Americans were infected with coronavirus before January 2020. Both of these things can be true without needing to resort to conspiracy.

  • The United States was actually well set-up to defend against pandemics. After the ebola scare, the Obama administration created a task force to effectively respond to future infectious diseases, and a plan was written up to guide the U.S. through a potential pandemic crisis situation.

    Purely out of pride, Trump disbanded the task force and scrapped all of the planning that was done during the Obama era, and then 2 years later was hit by the exact kind of situation the U.S. had planned for.

    I can't guarantee that the U.S. would have avoided lockdowns, and the exact number of Americans killed by Trump's decision will always be nebulous, but it's very clear that his decisions before and during the COVID pandemic were harmful.

  • Ya like Jizz?

  • Old age didn't fucking get to him, he could have committed to being a one term president from the start.

    His ego and the complacency of the DNC got to him.

  • Marjorie Taylor Dumbfuck here doesn't realize that her state, and in fact all Republican-led states, are solely dependent on blue state generosity in order to continue to exist. I'm sure the blue states would absolutely love for these freeloading welfare states to leave the union, because it would offer an immediate federal surplus that could be better allocated on themselves. It will never happen, because the smart conservatives love having a never-ending money faucet they can gargle when their economic plans fail due to their own ineptitude.

  • is it really that hard to change? I think if push came to shove, both of them would fall over, they're octogenarians.

  • If the goal is to remove and replace all party leadership, non-compliant party members, and administrative staff, why not just make a new party? Are you just really attached to the name on your ship of Theseus?

  • Yeah your edit is still wrong, there are current Democratic leaders trying to scapegoat minorities for the loss.

  • We're all subhuman because humanity is a myth we invented for ourselves. We're still just dumb fucking apes, slinging our shit at apes that look different and mimicking the apes we think look like us. As a species we won't grow or reflect upon anything. We're just trying to filter out our civilization.

  • Democrats are absolutely blaming minorities, have you just been blind?

  • If you haven't realized the Dems are also using divisive rhetoric, I'm not sure this meme or my comment will be enough to help you.
