Clinton isn’t tricking these people into doing what she says. Democrats believe all the same things she does.

difficult to envision a country whose asset I’d less rather be than the United States

in getting him banned from twitter, Iran has done more for Ken Klippenstein’s mental health than the American healthcare system ever did

On second thought, Vance is too tainted by this and no one likes him. The only way to truly unite the country against the hated Persian enemy is to join hands across the aisle with someone uncorrupted by scandal and an unquestionable commitment to patriotism: Kamala Harris must make Donald Trump her running mate.

I know, right? Does she immediately drop out to show that she won’t accept a win tainted by “Iranian election interference”, or does she offer to make Vance her running mate in a show of bipartisan commitment to overthrowing Iran again?

get ready to hear from Democrats about how Trump was anti-war, stopped evictions, and gave everyone stimulus checks, unlike “today’s extreme Republicans”.

but have you considered that terrorism is actually defined as “any detrimental act committed by an enemy of the empire against imperial property?”

“the left” is whoever and whatever I say it is, so naturally anyone that disagrees with me is a wrecker and the only thing preventing “the left” from achieving electoral power through legal nonviolent political activity in the imperial core

alternatively

the overwhelming majority of the popularly understood “left” in the Anglophone world are liberal democrats who support capitalism and white supremacy, so everyone on this website giving anything less than full-throated support for Joe Biden and Kier Starmer is a splitter weakening “the movement”.

splitting and wrecking in the context of a specific revolutionary party is an organizational problem solved with democratic centralism. complaining about “splitting and wrecking” in the context of an abstract term used specifically to obscure irreconcilable political differences is just being upset that reality doesn’t rearrange itself to conform to terminology. it’s like saying “humanity’s main vulnerability is splitting and infighting; we should shame and bully humans who shame and bully other humans for being wrong”. Rhetorically abstracting away difference doesn’t make difference go away.

of course, “splitting from or undermining a group is sometimes good and sometimes bad depending on the specific context and conditions” is the kind of banal observation that doesn’t drive social media engagement.

MSNBC: “Trump shooter appeared in propaganda video of Russia-adjacent violent extremist group”

“If these politically correct Hollywood liberals had any respect for basic biological science, they’d know that it’s highly unlikely that a female would have the necessary upper body strength required to kill a real vampire.”

it’s wild to me that anyone tries to argue that normal people vote based on how they think a candidate will “appeal to the middle of the country”. have these people ever talked to a human in real life that they weren’t paying?

sky accused of being blue; grass accused of being green; sun accused of rising in east; etc.

excuse me, elections are not all democracy is! democracy is when US businesses have unrestricted access to capital, and elections without that are actually dictatorship.

American politics is two candidates with identical policies each insisting the other looks like a Russian and wants to do fewer wars.

Much of Chapo’s early success was roasting terrified old men writing newspaper columns about the inscrutable things kids were allegedly doing these days.

Have Katy Stoll’s politics improved at all? I used to love her comedy stuff on Cracked, but I couldn’t stomach listening her “toxic misogynist Bernie bros love Trump because they hate women!” shtick that she seemed to believe circa 2016. I remember Cody Johnston having better politics at the time, and I was glad to see her and Cody making it out of Cracked relatively ok. I haven’t had the heart to watch their recent stuff and potentially ruin fond memories of them from Cracked if they just ended up settling into the John Oliver style “America has problems, but it’s still better than every non-white country” niche. I’m still not over John Oliver settling into that niche; he was probably my favorite Daily Show correspondent in the mid 2000’s.
