100%. It’s barely been a couple weeks and Trump has already started coping with questions about Vance saying things like “the VP pick doesn’t matter, because you’re voting for the president and not the VP”.

I think that if Dems keep doing well in the polls, Trump might just straight up drop Vance from the ticket.

They’re all identical types of weird chuds.

I want to believe, but there’s a reason billionaires spend millions each on security annually. Zuck security is reportedly more than $20 million every year. Musk keeps his numbers a secret, but he’s probably even more paranoid than Zuck.

No, with the endless culture war frenzy I can’t see working class solidarity, more likely a bloodbath between red MAGA and blue MAGA. The people flying the most and biggest flags will be the biggest targets.

My bad I didn’t know any communists were worried about what’s illegal under an imperialist regime.

Nothing would get me more excited than a communist vanguard party taking serious action, but in the US I don’t plan on holding my breath waiting for it.

I didn’t say voting, but if you think voting is the only form of action maybe you’re the lib all along

A threat to “neo-liberal Democracy” where votes aren’t counted equally, corporations are considered people and money is considered free speech.

It’s way more accurate to say a vaguely secular/agnostic capitalist olicharchy that makes token diversity and inclusion efforts towards marginalized groups is being theatened by a queer-phobic patriarchal white Christian theocracy.

Yeah but do you do anything to stop them other then writing very angry posts on the Internet about how bad they are.

Where do I purchase my tickets to board the cum train.

Unfortunately nobody expected Biden to be charged with genocide. Trump, Obama, the Bushes, Clinton, there is a long line of genocide and not once has anyone been held accountable.

For the sake of women everywhere, rape culture needs to die. By execution if necessary.

Completely inevitable. The GOP needs a constant source of outrage to galvanize its base. Abortion just isn’t the same now that it’ll outright illegal in many states.

If they’re smart, they’ll stick to the culture war and not actually write any policy, or they’ll have to find a new even more extreme position to fight on.

Trump is currently the frontrunner by a small margin, so it’s more likely that Trump will win, and we’ll see if it’s just business as usual or if project 2025 does make anything worse.

Is it possible for everyone to agree that criticizing specifically Democrats or Clinton or Biden is not a support of Trump, and criticizing specifically Trump is not a support of Biden.

I did not, will not ever advocate for Biden, because he is pro-genocide of Palestine. I don’t think “harm reduction” or “lesser of two evils” is the solution.

Please do not make wildly tangential assumptions, it’s not beneficial to dialogue. Treat the conversation you have with me as a conversation with me, and not an amalgamation of conversations you’ve had with other people.

I don’t see any reason why Clinton would be forced to pick the exact same scotus judges.

I’m not a liberal just because I might make you uncomfortable by challenging your established ways of thinking.

Clinton absolutely doesn’t care about people with wombs, all she cares about is herself, power, money, and a place in the history books, and I can’t see any way in which overturning RvW would be her desired legacy. Nothing about it makes any sense.

And just a gentle reminder that trans men can also be affected by this situation, so it’s worth an effort to use trans inclusive language.

Not a liberal, I’m not even sure you know what a liberal is.

Clinton would have no incentive and nothing to gain by overturning RvW, and people don’t usually do things without an incentive.

Trump was highly incentivized because his entire political culture is about “winning” and “making the liberals cry”, and overturning RvW did make his voterbase feel like they got a giant win and it did make liberals cry.

I’m gonna have to disagree with you a bit on this, if Clinton got to choose scotus justices instead of Trump, RvW would not have been overturned. That’s real world consequences that affects people with wombs every day.

Democrats are equally bad to Republicans on many issues, the oppression of all people matters and we need better answers but it doesn’t help to minimize or invalidate the oppression of people with wombs just to make a point around the oppression of other groups.
