A Plan

20 comments

The plan of democrats:
"Try to win the good billionares"
"throw trans people under the bus"
"shift further to the right"
"Focus on trumps moral character failings, don't let policy distract you"
"Make sure to keep the progressives quiet, we can't have the AOCs getting the jobs of life long do nothing democrats.
- Which party is AOC again?
  
  obviously democrats, the point is the democrats are working to minimize, the better of their own... and prop up their worse members, and burry their best communicators.

The midterms aren't going to matter if elected Democrats don't show more spine and slow this shit down RIGHT NOW. Voting no isn't enough now. They should be leading groups into federal buildings to physically remove musk and crew. The House and Senate should be literally prevented from conducting business until Trump is removed. They need to stop operating from a rules framework. We are at fucking war right now.
And to be clear, I'm usually Mac in this photo.

I hate how vague the terms get when we only need 3:
Progressives - ones that want things to improve
Conservatives - ones that want things to get worse
Dumbass cowards - who are so afraid of change that they'll refuse to even fix the things conservatives are breaking. They change their own label a lot, but are most widely known as "neoliberals", "third way Dems", or "moderates".
But group 3 is why we need to stop using all the stupid labels, the same fucking people will say you can't hold them accountable for their past failings because today they have a brand new label.
But what they're doing clearly hasn't been working and their self chosen label isn't why. So just changing the label of neoliberalism again isn't going to fix anything.

the plate is just more capitalism because the DNC has learned nothing that their corporate donors haven't paid them to learn
- Ken Martin is the new chair and he's pretty decent.
  Still only words, but I don't think it's been a month yet, not a lot of time for action.

I'm sorry, what's the liberal plan again??? #resist? Because I haven't heard anything else. I mean Christ Hochul won't even remove Adams.
- What’s the lefty plan? I thought it was #resist?
  Or wait, we’re supposed to throw soup in doctor’s offices or something, right?
  
  I'll admit leftists, quite famously, never seem to have a plan other than infighting, but this is literally a meme about how leftists are undermining a liberal plan for the midterms which DOES NOT EXIST. Maybe liberals should stop throwing around more whataboutism than tankies and actually come up with a fucking plan.
  
  Well I think those in power have taken the peaceful methods of resistance off the table... Jfk quote and all that.
  Also not like I can call my leftist representative... Democrats still have some obstructionist power left they refuse to wield because they're just as beholden to their corporate masters.
