2 sides of the same coin

Bombs vs bombs with rainbow flags.

It's June, so the democrat cop should have a pride pin.

That depends entirely on who we vote for in the primaries.

See: Zohran Mamdani for an example

To be fair, Mamdani is facing massive backlash from the Dem establishment.
- That's the thing; most democrat politicians hate him nearly as much as the republican ones do, as they're more similar to one another than either is to him. There are a few exceptions, but we're going to need people aligned with Mamdani to be the norm rather than the exception if we want the democratic party to become a real force for good.
- That doesn’t matter at all. He won the primary with a grassroots campaign, so he doesn’t need their funding. Being in the blue/Working Families column will win the know-nothing vote in NYC.
  The key is for us to seek out the progressive on the primary ballot and vote. We shouldn’t be rewarding the candidates that have the financial means to find us in our living rooms. Sign up for mailers if you forget to vote. Sign up for mail-in ballots if you have an irregular schedule.
The Democratic party is terrified of that dude. Primary all of them.
- 100%. There are primaries all the time. The only difference with Zohran is we showed up.

Not exactly. The mass pig expansion program across the country in the 1990s was spearheaded by Bill Clinton. The pro pig Dems are just as actively racist and murderous as the pro pig Reps.

Please report any genocide denying US democrats below. They set up shop on a lot of the fediverse, but we don't have to provide them a space here.

Two cheeks on the same ass.

two balls on the same cock

Careful you're going to make Godric very angry and he will have to be the adult in the room

Yeah. But also a quick test to see how far gone American society is: if the Dems get elected it means that, at least for the sake of optics and spin, morals play some sort of role still.

Don't kid yourself. Rich Democrats love dirty cops.
- I'm talking about getting a read on the country, but yeah, rich fucks (the truly rich ones) worship money. 🤷

I can't tell what on the left is doing. Someone help?

If you are being serious that's Derek Chauvin murdering George Floyd
- I was. Never saw photo before thanks for helping
- Thanks, that is very helpful as I had no idea what the OP image was

The rest of us standing there just looking at them

icl twn i js had an argument w a shitlib bc i had to explain to them how they're both right-wing populist parties

This made me laugh hard

The republican is actively killing. Yeah that seems to check out.

I know you're trying to say they're the same but no, they're not. You accidentally showed how dems are better.

The liberal brain, gentlemen. Tou Thao was convicted for keeping bystanders from intervening while not doing anything himself. He might've been less worse, but he still deserved to go to prison. And he remained unrepentant to the end. Of the four cops he got the second worst sentence despite never laying a hand on Mr. Floyd precisely because he refused to admit any culpability. It really is a good comparison, seeing this comment.
- It's really a great representation because if Floyd actually overpowered Chauvin, you know for a 100% fact that Thao would have resorted to violence himself, he just didn't have to because someone else was doing the dirty work sufficiently.
Yeah...they are watching and doing nothing...a failure and an accessory. The results are the same whether they are there or not, when they could prevent atrocities.
This who is better bullshit doesnt matter, they are complicit.
- If we remove the Republicans, things get better. If we remove the Democrats, things stay the same. It's not a question of who is better, but who is worse. Until we change the voting and representation systems (hello Approval Voting and Sequential Proportional Approval Voting) picking the lesser evil is the only logical and moral choice.
It's not like the democrats committed a genocide
Ask George Floyd which was better for him.
Shitlibs thinking they’re the hero taking the photo and not the one under the boot .
After winning the Nobel peace prize, Obama dropped an average of 30k bombs / year (80 per day) during his presidency, mostly on Muslim countries, 2, 3. In 2016 alone, dropped 26,171 bombs in the Middle East and North Africa, up 3000 from the previous year. The countries bombed include Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, and Somalia.
Began a campaign of drone assassinations in the Middle East and Africa, in which 90% of those killed were not the intended targets, but innocent civilian bystanders, including women, children, and US citizens. 1. Drone strikes are used by the military and the CIA to hunt down and kill people the Obama administration has deemed — through secretive processes, without indictment or trial — worthy of execution. He authorized 10 times more drone strikes than George W Bush, 2. The Obama assassination program is detailed in the drone papers.
It's no accident, I'm sure. They are better, as they're not helping the killers, but they're nowhere near as good as is necessary to stop them. Pretty much the perfect definition of the average democratic politician these days: you vote for them to stop the killing, but you know that - whether by choice or not - they won't do anything to prevent more deaths when the killers come back into power.
I'm happy we're electing people like Zohran Mamdani, but we're going to need a lot more of them before our leftmost viable party can be considered even a little left. We need politicians that make change, and when the system doesn't let them, they band together with the rest of the population to force it, instead of just complaining about how they wish they could make change but can't. The leaders need to be leading the charge, to battle if necessary.

Nah, people like you who were willing to defend any evil committed by the democrats, up to and including genocide, are the reason you have Trump now
Why did your party do this?

The US democrats are a vicious, brutal, genocidal party.
- If not sooner or as soon as he distanced himself from Reverend Wright's words, let alone with quitting his church over them to become more powerful, we should have known. And it's easy to "sell our souls" by centimeters, of "not as bad," and I've certainly been guilty. It creeps up on us.
  It's hard to know exactly when that sudden, terrible decisive action needs be taken, but there is a point when not taking it is the worse crime against humanity. In thinking of the necessary terrible wars fought, I think of the Kali myth of going into battle to help her husband. She licked the blood from the ground not as an act of simple bloodlust, but because not doing that would mean a demon would have sprung from every drop spilled.
  What that looks like in a decisive war action is in need of serious and long discussion.
- Whats my party? Luckily I am not american and we have more than 2 parties.
  Democrats suck, as all conservatives do. They are still 10000x better than the literal fascists you have now.
  With Harris you would have at least a chance to get a better candidate in the future. Now you will not have elections anymore that could change things and if you could have voted but didnt vote for Harris it is your fault and you deserve it.
Any criticism of Democrats isn't the same thing as saying "both sides are the same"

if you still think that reps and dems are the same after Trump's actions during his current term, then you must not be reading any news or you're willingly blind to his atrocities.

They're not the same. But the Dems are just watching.
You know, like the picture shows.
"Whoever knows what is right but doesn’t do it is sinning. So then, if we do not do the good we know we should do, we are guilty of sin".
Just to quote the Bible that the Republicans love so much
"willingly blind to his atrocities"
Says the Blue MAGA character that for a year at least didn't want to see the painfully obvious mental state of Genocide Joe(IDGAF) but worse, his atrocities in occupied Palestine or the kids he put in cages in record numbers.
Complete hypocrite.
- Let me guess: You didnt vote for Harris and wouldnt have voted for Biden? You still call him genocide Joe showing how completely stupid you are. Under Biden Gaza got some help at least. Trump wants Gaza to be cleared of Palestinians to built his Hotel there. Why dont you call him genocide Trump?
  You are responsible for everything that is happening to palestinians under Trump if you didnr vote for the only candidate that could have beat him.
Tbf he's a fascist in disguise, and his followers don't know how to open a pdf, so there's that.
