Time for the neoliberal world order to end. Want Republicans to actually be scared of Democrats? Fill the party with socialists.

Lately my emotions have tended toward anger at the apathetic middle, not the cartoon villains of the Penguin Administration.

I know it’s a minority view but I blame all this on the nice normal people that thought they had better things to do than pay attention to politics.

If you do not see the need for aggressive responses to lawlessness, you let this happen and I find you boring.

Democrats hit 27% approval this week...

That's ironically the level Schumer said Dems would start doing stuff when Trump hit.

No one likes neoliberals, or their policies

It's just not an effective political strategy, regardless of how you try to look at it. Even ignoring popularity with voters, even when neoliberals get elected, they refuse to do anything.

The entire purpose of it is doing nothing, it's political nihilism.

We are alone in this. The dems are better, but they are at fault here too because their entire strategy is being better then the republican which allows Republicans to be as awful as they please

"We've tried nothing, and we're all out of ideas."- The Democratic Party

Chickens can at least peck a bit. These dems aren't even that tough

I think we may may finally be getting our message across. Here's why:

Last night, Adam Schiff, one of the Democratic lawmakers I respect the most, was on Kimmel, and was very rough not just on the HitlerPig Crime Family, but also Chuck Schumer.

But what really struck me, was that the very honorable, polite, and respectful Adam Schiff took the opportunity to basically say "Fuck You" directly to the president - TWICE!

Kimmel asked him if he had said thank you to HitlerPig, and Schiff said he used a different two-word phrase, but one of the words was "You," and everyone got it and laughed. At the end of his interview, he made another joke that was another very obvious disguised "Fuck You."

They were obviously baiting HitlerPig into a tirade, but seeing Schiff go on national TV and saying Fuck You to HitlerPig twice marks a very new direction in messaging for the Democratic party. I hope this is the beginning of pivoting from appeasement to Hard Ball.

Another constituent, Donya Williams, complained Ivey didn’t know the people in his district well enough — because he admitted earlier that he didn’t know who popular podcaster Joe Rogan was until the middle of the 2024 presidential campaign.

This explains so much. They are as ignorant of the current state of things as the "apolitical" voters who thought Trump would be fine this time.

I don’t see people screaming at Bernie, AOC or Tim Walz. Wonder why that is…. Oh maybe it’s because they’re actually willing to notice the frustrations of their base.

Well holding signs and doing nothing didn't work?

Honestly instead of pushing me to the democrats, this has just gotten me to hate both sides, just hate one a little less.

You need to do more than finger waggle, treat Republicans the way they treat us

They need to understand that they are fighting for the country. And when they don't treat the Republicans and billionaires as the enemy they deprive us of the power to fight at the ballot box.

So we have to go to the soapbox. Like lemmy.

And when that fails, many of us (not me) will find they have nothing else to lose and go to the ammo box, like mangione is accused of.

And the rest of us will go to the jury box and vote not guilty.

Democrats: No we need to do this

This is why we lose. Fucking unite for something, geez
