And the press, which has a vacuum of integrity, dignity or solidarity just begs for more. In any other civilized society the press would stand up for their fellow journalists instead of groveling for "access" to sell advertising.

You don’t need a tank to go get shitty drip coffee or to drop kids off at school.

The party exists to fundraise off sustained mediocrity. Nothing else.

Taxpayers deserve the same work/life benefits that civilian dept of defense employees & their families get. Anything short of that is extortion and theft.

If the US had fast electric trains that don’t require air traffic controllers, Americans might have gotten affordable healthcare as a concession.

Long past time for progressives to use leverage and leave the party unless they reflect the will of voters who want progressive policies (healthcare, child/elder care, U pre-k…) that civilian DoD employees & their families get and objectively aren’t radical.

"You deserve a better society" is a war cry I will happily sign up for and chant all day.

Mamdani should have gone to the lengths of normalizing childcare, modern public transportation & basic work/life benefits that Dems did for normalizing Liz Cheney. Free childcare isn't radical. Neither are the basic work/life benefits that civilian DoD employees get. Opposition to it is.

Democrat leadership that refuses to raise taxes on the 350,000 millionaires & billionaires in NYC & across the state and who also oppose a public option are a huge part of the problem. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/n...

I will never understand why democrats oppose a public option in favor of private for-profit insurance being the only marketplace option. Unless it’s because insurance companies donate heavily to candidates who oppose public options. Maybe it’s all about fundraising & greed instead of healthcare

The inherent problem is that free childcare and other basic work/life benefits aren't radical. The radical part is that civilian Dept of Defense employees get 100% taxpayer funded work/life benefits that private sector taxpayers don't, and the Democratic party doesn't care.

Dems' tragic legacy of disastrous US healthcare will be that they gave up on a public option in exchange for private for-profit insurers being the only marketplace option. All because of fundraising and endemic greed. For-profit insurers donate heavily to candidates who oppose public options.

Yes, but billionaires shouldn’t be coddled with a “fair share” unless it is over 50%.

Josh Hawley voted to slash SNAP benefits. These people need to be exiled and their legacies should haunt people like serial killers. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/o...

Private for-profit health insurance is extortion. Subsidies for private for-profit insurance funnel taxpayer $ straight to shareholders & exec's who then donate heavily to political candidates.

Dems will have sacrificed the entire nation and environment to preserve the brittle egos of octogenarian like Biden, Feinstein & RBG.

A large part of the catastrophic failures of the Democratic Party is that they make overtures to help poor people who generally don’t vote and mostly vote conservative if/when they do while ignoring the working class. It’s a party that is doomed & determined to snuff itself out.

All this to mollify Joe Biden’s fragile ego. But fear not Dems, Joe Biden is eligible to run again in 2028.

The US distilled to absolute purity: Watching & filming human rights abuse like it’s a nature oddity instead of helping. No society is more deserving of authoritarian rule than Americans born after 1968.

US will move heaven & earth to build private stadiums but can make electric trains go fast.

The American idea of “fighting” is to cancel their ABC/Disney subscription and watch something else that Disney owns.

“Fighting” a response. All the left does is whine. No Rx or remedy. Just pointing out all the awful things happening & complaining. The donkey mascot should be replaced with a punching bag. Make demands & organize massive strikes that paralyze the economy until concessions are made.

This is bonkers. Trying to fire a general because his son wrote that Charlie Kirk was a racist homophobe misogynist. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...

Make demands and paralyze the economy until the government makes concessions. Something Americans will never understand because they value the convenience of 24hr drive through over the necessity of basic work/life benefits. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/w...

@thetransitguy.com @brenttoderian.bsky.social sidewalk in Kingston NY since 2022 Only way to access the O&W rail trail where a bicyclist was killed in 2021. County put up a “use crosswalk” sign but there’s no shoulder or bike lane on the state road & city prohibits bikes on sidewalk. Baffling.

@ryanmarino.bsky.social Whats the minimum number of cigarettes I need to smoke a day to qualify as a smoker and get the COVID vaccine while not compromising my health with the effects of smoking? Or what the healthiest & most efficient way to get diabetes so that I can get a vaccine? Thanks.

Americans value guns over kids, every single day. More Americans live in open carry states than in states that have paid family leave. Because Americans have contempt for other peoples’ kids.

A good technician always blames their tools. John McEnroe was a master of the trade who often had shitty racquets.

Exactly.

The resignation is even worse

They all worship at the altar of that South Carolina teen USA pageant and drink from her stupid red beer cup. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj3i...

And no one did anything beyond filming like they were on safari. No one asking the man’s name, where he lives, his phone number to contact his family or any modicum of compassion or care. Americans are the Nazis. There are very few “good” Americans.

Another reason to doubt that the US had the technology and appetite to send someone to the moon & back 55 years ago.

It began earlier than that, but yes.

Americans are truly the worst people.

“Blue no matter who except for…”

Using GDP per capita as a metric, Americans are the dumbest, laziest, complacent and most car dependent organisms to ever have lived on earth.

I lived in Washington DC for 13 years and voted for DC statehood (Green Party) every single time since statehood is more important than 3 electoral votes in a city that votes 94% democratic.

Flick the lights, the party is over. The Party needs to be composted.

@drlindseyfitz.bsky.social This reminds me of The Facemaker which is one of the best non-fiction books I’ve read in the past 3 years. www.nytimes.com/video/world/...

Yup.

Voters are thirsty for something better. All Dems have to offer is access to salt water as an alternative to $50/oz MAGA holy water.

The French protest for righteous causes. Americans don’t and destroy poor countries with taxpayer $$.

Giving up on working families to lure some angry single men.

IDF are the bad cops that kill civilians and Israelis are the cops that just watch and passively protect them.

Dems confused about why they're polling lower than GOPs? Think of it this way: one side is vile, rabid vermin - the other side let them in the house, feeds them, doesn't discipline them, dotes on them, responds to their needs, often takes their side in territorial disputes, asks you for $5.00 often.

Americans are bad people.

Amazon pays 6% corporate tax rate and rather than demanding Amazon & billionaires donate to classrooms through higher taxes, Dems fall on their swords and buy gifts from Amazon, perpetuating the cycle of broken public education funding. Dems could have campaigned on funding classrooms but didn’t.

Cops are bad people Most cops protect the bad cops.

Europe is better at public infrastructure.
