Biden has always been against abortion, social security and all semblance of state welfare programs, so nothing new there.
I do support the porn and video game ban, though as part of a larger grass-touching program. Any accelerationism that comes out of that is a bonus. ; )
I’m sure if you asked every liberal in California, face to face, if they would be in favor of ending slavery by checking a box, 99.9% of them would tell you ‘yes, of course, it’s the very least I could do’. But the mask comes off at home in front of an anonymous paper ballot.
Anyone focused on “defeating trump” smells like a stupid lib with zero marxist analysys. I had never heard of PSL until quite recently (and I follow US politics closely) but they keep making me dislike and distrust them.
Creeping? It’s been deeply entrenched for at least 80-something years.
The worst part was what he followed that up with
The people who criticize Israel are essentially saying, ‘Yeah, but look how many people you’ve killed in retaliation, how many is enough for you to kill to punish them for the terrible things they did?’ That all sounds nice until you realize what you would do if it was your family and you hadn’t done anything but support a homeland for the Palestinians, and one day they come for you and slaughter the people in your village.
Yeah. Sure. The genocidal settlers living on stolen land, in stolen houses, haven’t done anything but support Palestinians.
The US political system is designed to swing back and forth between two right-wing parties. It would be less successful at dividing people and keeping out opposing ideas if only one party won all the time, and they know it.
The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there’s free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate."
I’m sorry, I could have been more concise. I didn’t mean for that comment to come across as an accusation toward you. I think we’re all pretty fried watching this endless fascist nightmare, and I’ll admit being pretty sensitive about anything that looks like apologia toward this shit, too. It can take some real patience and mental discipline sometimes ; )
I read Project 2025 as both a scare tactic and continuation of existing policy. If so, then yeah, it only exists in the media as a whip to get voters to show up for them. There was no material policy opposition.
Yeah, I understand this post is not reflective of your own views. I’m just pointing out that fascist rhetoric starts our pretty cagey, or by being edgy as a way of testing the water before jumping in. I read through some of those comments and this really isn’t satire, the resentment, anger and blame is authentic. It’s thinly veiled racism, at best.
Ironic Brownshirting is just Brownshirting with less confidence.
“If the republicans won’t deport Mexican families, I WILL”
Says a lot about their confidence in Trump actually doing the same. Shit is always projection, isn’t it…
Dude is about 2 drinks from joining the OUN
fire the extremely unpleasant, annoying and talentless parasites
You mean the c-suite, right?

I love how much liberation struggle energy this has. I mean it’s not just a flag or watermelon or whatever, but suggests the moral right of militant opposition by Palestinians and Lebanese. Too bad that a hamas headband couldn’t make it’s way in. Looks rad and nice to see the overton window pushing further left. Maybe revolutionaries will be cool again.
Open the gates Canada, the libs are really gonna leave this time for real 🤣
She’s a manufactured celebrity and western PR tool, not a revolutionary.
Libs that support Palestine always “denounce hamas” too, so it’s a superficially correct position at best. Libs still “both sides bad” the invasion of Viet Nam to this very day ffs. In their minds non-whites have no right to liberation struggle.
I really hope doing the coalface at a fry machine becomes a necessary path for all future presidency of Burgerlandia.
You cannot vote your way out of capitalism.
LOL
