What's going on with that post is how many Gentiles respond to the Israel/Palestine cause in miniature: "I have adopted the Correct Stances that make you a Good person, how DARE you tell me to speak judiciously?" It's adopting the cause for the moral clout to abuse others, not sincere passion.

"Progressives" gave us Tulsi Gabbard and John Fetterman - they don't exactly have the high ground either.

She wasn't sincere then, either. She's always been opportunistic, and all the red flags were there since before she started campaigning for Bernie in 2015.

some of you people would best serve the political causes you care most about by literally never being associated with them

What's yours, coward hiding behind disabled quotes?

How many votes in the House are needed to impeach? How many votes in the Senate are needed for removal? What happened last time Dems impeached him (twice)??? These people have the memory of a gnat.

I couldn’t leave Chicago without getting a cut from my old barber, Zariff!

Did I strike a nerve? 😗😗😗

White people can unilaterally, without any input from Black/brown people, decide this ends now but haven't done so. It feels like they intend to survive this administration at the expense of minorities. After all, they and their ancestors are used to suffering - why not take another for the team?

It's not like a certain demographic has an entitlement problem...

🤔🤔🤔

lol i'm gonna get whacked for this but i feel like a lot of white people on the left are waiting for a messiah to save them.

I may never forgive Gen Z for that "+10%" approval, no matter how much that margin improves.

Hilarious - refusing to do the bare minimum of voting for Dems to stop the GOP calling *other* people Blue MAGA 😂

The thing about being an US born person of immigrant extraction who has also lived in a couple of other countries and traveled to a bunch more is... I can be both very clear eyed in the way the US sucks while also being aware of how other countries use the USA's failings to distract from their own.

Christ, just join the GOP already - you're already helping them out with this mindset. Thanks for clarifying how deeply you hate Dems, and how Black/Brown/LGBT can never trust you to be an ally. [Ofc it's a white guy!]

This racist "joke" was designed exclusively to be enjoyed by white people.

As long as Americans see their vote as a REWARD and not a CHOICE OF AN AGENDA, things will continue to not improve in this country. Withholding your vote never punishes a Candidate. It punishes you. All y'all who wanted to "punish" Kamala over Gaza, how's that working out for you now?

Democracy is a group project & a lot of you motherfuckers let everybody else do the work & then complain about the fucking grade.

How would you be able to tell whether the Dem leadership helped or not? Sounds like you will never give them credit regardless. It's voters that disappoint me more than any snapshot of Dem leadership I've seen over the years.

LONG RAMBLING EMOTIONAL THREAD: It's World AIDS Day. Since the Administration has decided to keep it quiet, I'd like to share my introduction to AIDS. I grew up in Seattle. My mom remarried a man who had a brother who was a King County Sheriff's Deputy. His name was Terry and he was gay. 1/x

WE LITERALLY READ IT OUT TO THE ENTIRE COUNTRY FOR FOUR NIGHTS DURING PRIME TIME AND THEY STILL BLEW IT OFF.

Hell ain't hot enough for you, Charlie Brown.

Fuck around and find out, Charlie Brown

It's turtles all the way down, Charlie Brown.

Valar Morghulis, Charlie Brown.

This is what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass, Charlie Brown

Watch /listen to Boston’s mayor Michelle Wu live her dream.. Playing with Yo Yo Ma.. 🥰

a significant reason Mamdani can get away with this and other Dems can’t is less that he’s charmed Trump and more that he’s charmed you, dear reader, which is why you’re not yelling at him for being a collaborator or an appeaser right now

Very good story and payoff…

It's extremely bad for left politics that we are apparently incapable of doing the internal hygiene required to keep these vicious bullies from claiming the mantle of "leftism"

I’m suddenly thinking about all the people who’ve been demanding that elected Democrats put their lives on the line to fight Trump when those same people couldn’t be bothered to fill in a fucking bubble on a piece of paper a year ago to prevent all of this.

I love Maine and its people. That's why as governor, I expanded health care to more than 100,000 people, guaranteed free school meals for children, protected abortion access, provided free community college, and more. I'm proud to bring that same fight to the Senate.

Yeah, I call BS. I recall very clearly that Bernie, who falls squarely in the 'progressive' camp, support the likes of Tulsi Gabbard, John Fetterman, and most recently Graham Platner.

What is the point of posts like this? Who is actually saying that?

OK, I listened to the last 20 minutes of the episode (the whole section about the tattoo). Here's what i heard: 1/

#ShowerDoor > #Bernie #PunchingBag > #Bernie

This is precisely the mindset that landed us with Fetterman, regarding the pre-candidacy pre-stroke Black jogger shotgun chasing incident. Fuck that.

Sorry to disappoint - Now time for y'all to admit you fell hook, line, and sinker for a decades long smear campaign. www.mediaite.com/politics/jef...

So many crickets tonight on both sides of the aisle. Do y’all know how many republicans & democrats based their HRC hate on Epstein bs? I gotta give the GOP credit. The $Billion they spent over the better part of a decade to trash the Clintons was well $ spent. www.mediaite.com/politics/jef...

If people have a remotely plausible plan to defeat the GOP that doesn't involve supporting and voting for Dems, I haven't heard it.

The number of people in the last 18-odd hours who’ve told me as a federal employee (contractor, so I have no guarantee of backpay) some version of, “well, you’re already fucked, so just take one for the team” has been really eye-opening. And not in a good way.

The majority of white voters caved in 2024.

Just had a follower tell me "Nothing you say will change how I FEEL!" And isn't that the crux of the problem? Learn to manage your goddamned emotions, and stop letting "vibes" rule you to the point that you reject facts, logic, reason, and decency. Just repugnant.I blocked that one.

Yall want Democrats to create miracles out of vibes when we needed to give them votes to put/keep them in power.

Now for some levity and logic based in facts.

Republican voters don’t blame Republicans for *anything.* Democratic voters blame Democrats for *everything.* It’s pretty easy to see how fascists gained complete control of our federal government.

i see the tedious mamdani people are, as predicted, the sorest winners in the universe, but we knew that would be the case anyways, enjoy it while it lasts, buckaroos, you'll hate him and have always hated him in six months

You would think Dems won no other elections by larger margins yesterday, reading this BS. Especially rich coming from someone who wrote this in 2016 🤷🏽‍♂️

Mamdani's victory was razor thin (I wanted him to win) but people don't appreciate that fact. He has a lot of work to do to restore faith in the Black and Jewish voters in NYC to win in 2029 - he won't have the benefit of running against a repulsive candidate like Cuomo.
