I feel like posting a "Hillary / Kamala warned us!" meme at this point should earn you some kind d of fine.

People who are engaged with reality are not to blame for reality I understand and could not possibly care less that you might not like where your fingers will point if not at us "Knowing who to be mad at is praxis" (Mariame Kaba)

“Let me drop a strawman argument, then run and hide before you can reply.” To be clear, this person is an Israel/Biden stan who takes the “Hamas brings this on themselves” stance. Ghoul.

So really, what I'm hearing is, the whole "THIS IS NOT WHO WE ARE" crowd are missing the point. All of this is very American. Social media is just making it uncomfortable.

“Call your senator” is the biggest gaslight of all time.

Try asking us lefties what radicalized us. It’s never “so-and-so on YouTube told me to hate Democrats”. Never. It’s usually some form of being fucked over by capitalism and being disillusioned on the Democrat party by their perpetual ineffectiveness. But never mind reality, hatred drives you.

As our government slides ever further into open fascism, I have zero patience for anyone continuing to peddle the nonsense that the people to blame for all this are the ones who wouldn’t vote for a party that actively supported a right-wing genocide and the brutalization of those who protested it

Today's comic is titled "Here Lies Lady Liberty" Before anyone thinks this means I do not think the Epstein files are important, I do. The point is that it is a misconception to think that they will stop him. He will kill us all first.

I don’t see what’s unarguable. In fact, I’d argue that support of genocide is a pretty strong DIS-qualification for a national leader.

There are centrists on here who honestly think that the unredacted Epstein files would change anything.

Gavin Newsom is just Former Sen John Edward's Haircut come to life.

Look, I don’t live in her state. I haven’t deeply explored her platform. I’m not specifically endorsing Kat. But what I am saying is that THIS is the kind of bluntness and solidarity and commitment that we need to see to trust a politician with our vote.

Okay, people, it’s not that hard. Intent does not override impact. If someone tells you you’re being offensive, you apologize, adjust your language, and move on. If you hide behind your “free speech” rights to justify being offensive, you are an asshole. You deserve to be shamed for that.

Me when I'm not crashing out and don't care what the transes are saying about me

OP demonstrating her display name by being pissy over being asked to stop using offensive language. Who does that sound like? Who else tries to hide behind “free speech” as an excuse to say offensive shit without consequences? 🤔

That would take a level of self-awareness they simply do not have, as well as a willingness to admit that they were wrong about us and stop fighting us - something else they’ll never do.

Ah, liberal scratched. This one’s a “you deserve fascism for not voting Harris” variety, but Blue MAGA is all the same.

Yup. Nothing but unjustified smug condescension.

The US is being terrorized by a domestic terror organization called ICE. They are going door-to-door. They are stealing and kidnapping people. They have killed over 30 people so far. We are being terrorized by the US government and what you have to do first is acknowledge it.

Dismayed Gavin Newsom realizes after passing by a homeless person and not physically assaulting them that he forgot to slick back his hair this morning.

Reminder that outside the US, liberals are seen as the ghouls they are. Wish more of the US left (such as it is) understood this too.

Been true for more than a century.

I will not vote for Gavin Newsom and you can't make me

I found this very interesting perspective thread on FB.

I would hope most of us understand that there is rarely a binary on/off for being at war. There might be an inciting flash-point event, but wars don’t just turn on overnight. I truly believe, when history books describe the events of this year, especially ICE’s escalations, they will say that…

It is 2000, the libs are scolding you for being a leftist and "costing" them the election It is 2016, the libs are scolding you for being a leftist and "costing" them the election It is 2024, the libs are scolding you for being a leftist and "costing" them the election It is 2032, the libs are...

since the scolding thing didn't work in 2024, libs are ready to expand their horizons and try something new in 2026: MORE SCOLDING

Everyone who spreads this counterinsurgency propaganda about not 'giving Trump an excuse' (to do shit he's been doing for months now) is, in effect, arguing that people defending themselves and their communities are letting Trump win. And Walz has been doing plenty of that.

This is an inexpensive terror tactic.

Preferred fascism certainly is a BIG thing across the US major-party political spectrum. And the voters don't have the courage to elevate parties and candidates that actually do oppose fascism, because they are too entangled with predatory, end-stage capitalism and its propaganda.

Exactly this. "Cancelling elections" probably doesn't and can't look like a light switch. But what does it mean if one polling place in a key district is messed with? What happens when it comes time for people to be sworn in.

So stoked to know that if I get murdered by a masked Nazi who couldn’t get a real job the American media will focus on the pronouns in my bio and my mayor will say a swear for me

Well, America has always been fascist. We didn't become a country of white supremacy, this administration is revealing what has always been here. And America has always had flare ups towards its own people. But really, it was fascist when it started killing indigenous people for their land

"kamala harris called all of this" the left called all of this two decades ago and your idiot political heroes kept reaching across the aisle to build a police state. go fuck yourself

Seriously! I promise, I will vote in elections, but I’m not going to write a blank check for a party that has proven time and time again that it cares more about keeping its donors happy than fighting for my rights. Want my vote? Give me something better than “not the other guy”.

#GavinNewsome is a ghoul. Dems enable fascism if not fully embrace it.

This is a really important point and I’ve tried to make it before. Just because I’m convinced elections are going to either not happen or just be ignored/overruled, doesn’t mean I won’t still cast my vote. If by some miracle it foments change, I promise I’ll eat my words. But let’s be real too.

It’s naïve fools like Robert here who are dragging us toward doom. “ThEy CaN’t Do ThAt!!! 🤪🥴” Losten to them scream it as they’re dragged off to the camps alongside us. They can and they will do that, and it doesn’t matter that it’s “illegal”. They have the strongest military in the world. Wake up.

Tell me you think this started on October 7th and that you are an idiot.

Laughable take from a moron who can’t tell the difference between a liberal and a leftist. Mock and block!

I don't understand US peeps going on about the Epstein files. You all know he's guilty already. He's got secret police kidnapping, attacking and killing people already. He's effectively resigned you from NATO and is threatening a war against the rest of us. It's not distraction.

Well hey, if it isn’t exactly what lefties have been predicting since he won the election. “But he can’t do that because {insert excuse here}”; pleeeeease, wake the fuck up. It doesn’t matter what’s technically “allowed”, he’s gonna do whatever his buddies want him to.

Jesus, liberals are just as violent as MAGA. Again, there’s good reason to call them Blue MAGA. Ew, block this douchenozzle.

Maybe, the topic of the abolition of ICE, would lead to the blue maga genocidal democrat and liberal voters realising that blue maga genocidal democrats are just as fascist as red maga fascist republicans. Cos the blue maga genocidal democrats are not abolishing ICE. No, they're never doing that!

Hey Blue MAGA! This is evidence right before your eyes of Democrat complicity. How can you - how DARE you - justify this?

The DJT regime has declared war on an American city. This isn't about protection. Or immigration. Or policy. Or crime control. It's about fear, violence, brutality, repression, and control. WE ARE ALL MINNEAPOLIS. Stand up and speak out.

btw I believe turning normie liberals against the democratic party is the first step of The Only Way Out Of This That Isn't A Hot Civil War and that's why i am Like This

There is difference between keeping up with what is happening with the Epstein files, and demanding they be released. People need to understand that. I am keeping up. I just don't believe they are going to ever be fully released so, I don't bother demanding something I don't believe will happen.

I'm not trying to persuade them. I'm sick of them trying to persuade me there is some quick fix for this mess that involves releasing the Epstein files, which isn't going to happen or doing another useless impeachment.

If you people want to scream about impeachment and releasing the Epstein files do it on your own god damn timeline because I have NO patience for that Pollyanna shit anymore.
