  • I used to think it was a conspiracy theory that Democrats were controlled opposition but the way they shoot themselves in the foot over and over... It can't be a coincidence that they keep making the worst choices constantly.

  • On your last point, I don't think Dems could've done anything different. They're clearly in Israel pockets and they can't disobey their corporate overlords and run on a more progressive agenda. Only other option was to try hard to get the "centrists". Incredibly disappointing as they would rather lose and go hard fascist rather than let their donors lose any money (how's that stock market looking?).

  • He can't. He's all in for fascism. There's no going back to the shadows for him, he'll always be known as a Nazi oligarch. He said he would be going to jail if Trump didn't win. We know he's got ties with Putin so he might be being blackmailed into being the bad guy [not that he was good before, but at least he l wasn't toppling democracies before].

  • I took it as "Put him, alone, in the middle of people his country is currently genociding so so he can see the horrors of Genocide, the kind his own people once faced. This should reframe why his Nazi salute was a poor decision." But I can see how it can be interpreted the other way by looking at the "with no help" part.

  • As a person? Yes

    As a politician? Arguably no since he's not the one making decisions.

    Hes so very clearly nothing but a figure head. His boss in Russia, the heritage foundation and their billionaire backers are commanding him. The fuckin guy was told to shut up by a child, in the white house while Elon was behind the desk answering questions. I think part of the game plan is to make America look as dumb/inept as possible and it is working beautifully.

  • In the end, my receipts don't matter. It's fake news. The closest I can get is to make my points using FOX NEWS articles. But there's often a shit ton of spin on those so I can't get the really hard hitting facts across. Best example was my trumper friend saying that ICE is going after criminal immigrants and not the good, working ones. I linked the fox news article saying that the ICE commander said everyone's on the chopping block. I was met with "No, no they can't do that. They can't do that. They won't do that". They literally live in their own made up reality where the rules are how they interpret them and not how they actually are. Even when their glorified party proves them wrong, time and time again.

    God bless my buddy's hearts. They're good people but theyre actively getting corrupted and I'm trying at every chance I get to give them a different perspective.

  • Same with friends. But it's so hopeless trying to get through to them. I know their feeds are filled with "LIBERAL TEARS, IMMIGRANTS BECOMES MILLIONAIRE WITH FOOD STAMPS AND HERES WHY WHITE PEOPLE ARE THE ACTUAL VICTIMS" They see it on their YouTube. Their Twitter. Their Facebook. Their Instagram. Their FOX (self described non news "entertainment" channel) NEWS app. They're getting hit with propaganda from everywhere, not even counting the decades of Fox that's infected their family. They're so incredibly misinformed and I don't know what way to change their minds. Some times they'll listen but it never sticks, probably the same way I do when they're telling me how democrats actually set up any bad thing that happens.
