Im tired of the purely performative nonsense in modern democratic party as well. For the resources and votes that go their way they always find a way to deliver nothing, or actively betray us all. Supporting far rightwing genocide, pissing on progressives and progressive causes, and utterly ignoring the working class in the last ~10 elections (since Carter) are prime examples of this.

Time to toss the traitors out the door and clean this party out.

I'm tired of rich and/or petty people controlling us. We're better than this.

Left or right we're getting fucked one way or the other. The whole foundation's been corrupted to the core.

It's like every debate, any talk of politics is pointless and anything truly reasonable is quickly surpassed overpassed by political "sports team" entertainment while people with real [heartless] willpower continue to do what they do. And I mean that from the streets to the president. The corruption is the same essence and the same evil at any wealth status, education, or social position and all of it is the rotted part of the foundation the country is built upon.

When your "left" is just Diet-Republicans that are less hateful on social issues? Your perspective makes total sense.

And to be fair? That is what the Democrats have served you. And I hate them harder then Republicans hate them. For this reason.

I would like to invite you to a Solution-Oriented American Left in Zohran Memdani, Eugene Debbs, or Bernie Sanders.

This is not the End of what the Left is. This is only where it Starts. we have entire books about the rich American history the Democrats-since-Clinton have entirely abandoned.

You can blame only Republicans which even if they disappeared wouldn't solve the issue, or you can acknowledge that both parties are corrupted by oligarchs and PACS

I would change Republicans to 'selfish and narrow-minded individuals'

Owning class.

How much in your bank account isn't the point — it is how that money got there. It just so happens that practically nobody ever became a billionaire without the use of exploitation.

Yet, it is not just billionaires but any who make their income through exploiting their private ownership over the tools, land, and resources which make production possible that, under the capitalist system, entitles those "owners" to the excess value of labor, in the form of profits, that are generated by the working class – individuals who must sell their labor to these owners for a wage – under their employment.

I'm tired of this country sucking all the fucking life out of me.

[-] Kyle_The_G@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

I just want free public transit, affordable housing//rent/food/bills and some free time to actually enjoy being alive, is that too much to ask?

I’m tired of the future being destroyed by capitalists/christian nationalists. That’s been happening for hundreds and thousands of years, every time they gain power, no matter where or when. Republicans are relatively new to this game.

I’m also tired of society having to relearn this lesson at great loss of life and suffering, over and over.

We’re smarter than this, and we far outnumber them.

I'm not even American and... Yes

[-] SapphironZA@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

I would raise both hands, so we can include the Democrats as well.

Both are part of the problem. Along with their owners.

Unbelievable that there are some Americans in politics who wake up every day and consciously decide they want to destroy everything around them.

[-] WizardofFrobozz@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Unbelievable that the rest of the Americans would rather just sit there and take it than risk literally anything.

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Unbelievable that there are some Americans in politics who wake up every day and consciously decide they want to put their foot on someone else's neck so that they can feel superior, even if it means they are worse off.

How about tired of the uni-party system! We need real change, politicians who care about the workers, not corporations and their oligarchs.

Not just Republicans, conservatives in general. All Republicans are conservative, but many Democrats are as well. That needs to change.

Mamdani shows it’s possible to start the purge of the DNC. We need to continue that. Primary every last conservative. Drive them from the DNC, drive them from politics, drive them from political discourse and public life. Authoritarianism must be crushed, Constitutional rights must be restored, and common sense policies for real people must be enacted. If we can’t achieve that, then all is lost and totalitarian neofeudalism will prevail.

My optimism for the future is dead at this point. Even if we miraculously have a collective pivot into sustainable practices tomorrow, this train ain't stopping in my lifetime. Maybe it'll be better for future generations, I sincerely hope it is and I'll keep doing what I can to ensure that. But my future is doomed to dealing with the mess that unchecked greed and exploitation has wreaked upon our world.

[-] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yeah, this is kind of my attitude as well, sadly. I'm a younger millennial, but I feel I've been around long enough to determine we're truly just a pot of boiling crabs dragging everyone else down to try to save ourselves.

I think one of the hardest parts of getting older, at least for me, is watching the childlike wonder and hope for the world within yourself slowly vanish. I'll never stop fighting the good fight, but the light has definitely died in my heart. Honestly, sad as fuck.

Spoiler: It won't. The wealth gap inequality will continue to grow. Most of the world will essentially become slaves to the corporations and wealthy elites.

[-] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 3 points 1 month ago

I'm tired of both Democrats and Republicans destroying the future, and people pretending Democrats don't because they do it slightly less

This is a long standing plan mainly by the Heritage Foundation and the GOP. Musk hacked vote tabulations to deliver them a victory and they're quickly dismantling America. They stand to inherit lifelong positions in the government without actual elections similar to Russia. There are less than a few thousand people responsible for all of this. Societies degrade rapidly under these scenarios. Remember them when if that happens.

Musk hacked vote tabulations

No he didn't. Unfortunately, americans are just that stupid. Thats the same rhetoric conservatives were trying to use when they lied about dominion.
