Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.

Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @[email protected]

Rules:

We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

This is what happens when you don't understand the 'why' behind being more inclusive and instead apply it opportunistically to concentrate power.

The Democratic party has a hollow husk of virtue signallers at its core. Let's hope a new generation, one that truly means what they say, can rise above their failures.

How CAN a new generation rise when the party's failures have lead to a loss of all public trust in the party? Any democrats currently trying to get elected have it harder than ever as the party's reputation is literally in the shitter amongst their voters.

I'm not saying that picking them as the lesser of two evils is wrong, but having that should NOT be anyone's goal

Have you not paid attention to politics?

The new generation is all hopeful and bright eyed. If you give them a few years they'll be sleeping on piles of lobby money and talk big about helping the people, while voting the opposite.

No. Sincerely, that is a reflection of who you are as a person.

Just because you can be bought with money does not mean everyone else is the same.

I assure you that my hatred of capitalism is so immense, there is no amount of money I would accept to look the other way as our planet continues to be raped and our future pilfered.

Shame on you.
