I'm sorry, no love for Dems but this is another level of cope and mental gymnastics. Trump did not soften any American power. If anything he crested a wave of right wing electoral victories across the world and emboldened white supremacist, Nazi, and transphobic messaging.
Trump radicalized people... To vote for Biden!! People got radicalized to vote for a right wing old senile white man who sniffs kids instead of a far right old senile white man who raped 14yo's. Trump was not a victory for radicalizing people to the left - Trump put the world decades behind in social progress.
If Trump wins but Project 2025 doesn't cement GOP power the way the Christian nationalist power fantasy thinks it will, we're gonna get another fucking Biden all over again. Radicalized to slightly left of far right.
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.
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.
Well, misogyny is pretty fundamental to capitalism, and therefore the US. The only spin the media is making is that misogyny is some special conservative problem and not a liberal problem too.
Mexico is facing an immigration crisis, white people are crossing the border and the US isn't sending it's best, it's sending thugs and murderers.
I can't find the reddit post but this exact same picture and title are floating around Facebook, LinkedIn, so it's reasonable to figure it's a pro-West troll farm posting these around wherever it can
My bad I didn't know any communists were worried about what's illegal under an imperialist regime.
I meant in the nonbinary sense but if that doesn't work for your identity that's my bad, my apologies.
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
I would guess the two of them to be extremely close on the political spectrum, and it's still unusually rare for a woman to run for POTUS. Everything seems to line up here.
Believe it or not, there are US voters who have political leanings that aren't just MAGA or Blue MAGA.
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.
That's why I don't usually like to go for analogies but since you are the analogy guy, I just built off yours.
In America in the general election you vote for a lot more different positions than just the president. Depending on your state and locality you may have a few fresh plant-based options to choose from.
Making everything about the POTUS and only the POTUS is like only looking at the first two options on the menu and making assumptions about the last 50 items.
In the US there is nobody stopping Hilter candidates.
He was a simple man, a man of the earth. A Christian, and a devoted Republican. A father, a husband, and a dedicated Trump supporter.
Mmm yes, my objections to trump relate purely to his "trumpiness", and in no way involved finding his policy positions abhorrent, and all he needs to do is "tone down" that "trumpiness" and I'm all trump 2024.
