Unlimited government surveillance
Unlimited power to ban leftist non-profits
Banning leftist social media
Sicing cops on students all over the country
Giving $95 billion to fascist regimes all over the world

lmao this shit is nuts and an escalation of fascism we haven't seen since the early days after 9/11. After months of fear-mongering about the supposed takeover of all facets of government by MAGA fascists if Trump wins, the fuckin dems went and passed everything they warned us would pass if we didn't bend the knee and back Genocide Joe, I think most leftists (including me) are still too shell shocked at this early stage to realize the full implications of what we've just been hit with, seriously wtf

I wish.

The people aren't even making the effort to seem good.

The literal current message of the democratic party is "fuck you were going to keep doing whatever the fuck we want. We know you don't like it but what are you going to do, let trump win?"

Trump is a massive asset for the democrats because they're literally using him as a gun to take their own voters hostage.

yeah. fetterman was the last one to get a big media push like "hey look at this guy he's progressive or whatever" and even with him it was a pretty thin veneer. Now he's one of the worst

Honestly Fetterman is about the one person I can think of recently (Sinema last election cycle) that actually did try to pretend to be halfway decent before doing a heel turn and literally telling his voters to go fuck themselves.

Hopefully it works as well for him as it did for her and hes a pariah for a couple years before being primaried by 40 points.
