responding to all of these with "Hasan Piker" as a bit

[-] AnarchoAnarchist@hexbear.net 40 points 1 week ago

Hasan Piker is the compromise candidate

[-] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

Piker/that school shooting survivor who they drummed out because he was slightly to the left of someone with more power.

While I'm sure some of these candidates have the potential to unleash chaos and suffering on an objectively comparable scale to their counterparts across the aisle, the real question is: do any of them really possess the fire to excite the blood-thirst of today's donors?

Careful now, that's how you get Hillary again.

[-] microfiche@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Yeah step away from the lathe damnit

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

Chelsea has the lathe now, anyway

[-] Ildsaye@hexbear.net 34 points 1 week ago

There is only one proven candidate who can beat a trump in the battle box biden-harbinger

[-] mayakovsky@hexbear.net 33 points 1 week ago

Relatives have told me they want her to run again, and every time they mention it, I ask "Why, do you really want to watch her lose that badly?"

[-] WafflesTasteGood@hexbear.net 29 points 1 week ago

I'm actually pretty stoked about Someone Else coming back for another shot.

[-] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 27 points 1 week ago

These texts are relentless. And there is no way the stop2text bs works. Sometimes I just send profanity laden all caps messages in reply. Maybe a human reads them, maybe not. Either way, it's cathartic.

[-] microfiche@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago

I've taken to calling their mother names, or directly insulting the candidate. I've been unsubscribed from actblue, and a couple repub lists this way. 'Stop' doesn't seem to work. Childish behavior and expletives seems to do it tho.

[-] piccolo@hexbear.net 10 points 1 week ago

I've been getting a lot fewer texts since I told some of them that I'd donate $20 to the Trump campaign for each message I recieved

Yeah I got removed from an anti-choice maga list I somehow got on by replying their family is disgusted by them, they’re a disgrace to humanity, and this is why no one visits lol. Struck too close to home apparently.

[-] peeonyou@hexbear.net 9 points 1 week ago

this has been my default response to just about anything anymore.. some day it is going to cause me trouble, but it is quite cathartic

[-] microfiche@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

It's extremely cathartic. I'll directly insult the candidate in question, or sometimes just tell them to have sex w a horse.

[-] Johnny_Arson@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

Horses do not deserve this

[-] microfiche@hexbear.net 7 points 1 week ago

Punished Bernie 2028 write-in campaign punished-bernie

[-] Kefla@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

I'm writing in Mecha-Bernie in case he's dead by then

[-] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago

So they are trying to position themselves as the "only acceptable way to fight Fascism" which in good controlled opposition fashion means they'll just happily capitulate to it. Wild looking at how liberals enable fascism in real time. Really makes you feel like a part of history.

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 14 points 1 week ago

Write in “Dark Money” and then we can impeach them once elected and finally get Dark Moneyout of politics

[-] SwagliacciTheBadClown@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

I’m picking the only anti-anti-semitism candidate:

Adam friedland

[-] microfiche@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

My vote is for Terd Ferguson.

It's true, however liberals having "Hasan is saying that he wouldn't vote for Newsom" and "Should we preemptively ban anti-imperialism and anti-zionism from the party?" struggle sessions a full two years out is a good sign.

Usually nobody says anything remotely progressive (like "Bernie Sanders will beat Trump, Hillary Clinton will lose to Trump" until the primaries are on, and the liberals rally around "actually only [establishment candidate] is electable right now, this is the most important election of our lifetimes and there's no time to figure out anything better", but they dont have that option right now.

I remember getting into "accelerationism" vs. "incrementalism" discussions back on reddit. Obviously my understanding has gone well past that terminology, but it is interesting to see it play out with Trump just ramming the "decline" lever on the economy as hard as he can. Remember that 60% of dumbass Americans agree that the war makes no sense, I think even more side with Palestine (iirc?). Gotta get those numbers up ofc, but the archaic liberal order is literally 70 years behind the times on a good day. It stopped advancing under the 70s neoliberalism when ot was forced to sell itself to Wall Street.

I think we have hit "peak lib" and it will be less and less popular from here on out. I hope everyone is out there doing some sort of praxis right now, there is going to be a lot of momentum to the left soon, and those of us who stand for a brighter future need to be guiding that along as much as possible. Obviously needs to be come sort of "revolutionary" future, but who tf knows how that is going to look in the core-of-the-core. We on the left should be ready for all possibilities. I don't think it will be possible for any power to become what the US is under neoliberalism (1970-~2030s). After this decline, it's socialism or it's barbarism. Socialism will win, but it is a question of how much barbarism will happen along the way.

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 2 points 1 week ago

Peak lib was in 2021 it's been downhill for a while since then

[-] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

AOC will be popular with non-hexbear reading libs.

[-] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

She won't be taken seriously as a contender I don't think, and if she is, they will ratfuck her six ways to sunday. She doesn't have the guts to split the party either, which is what I think is desperately needed

[-] BanMeFromPosting@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

No Hillary? :19::84:

[-] AF_R@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

Please forward me the survey so I can respond “Kamala Harris”

[-] UmbraVivi@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

Just imagining the absolute bile that Fox News would be spewing about a President Ocasio-Cortez. We would be seeing levels of racism, misogyny and classism previously thought impossible.

And that corpse's name? Little Marco Rubio.

He's got some big shoes to fill folks

[-] IAMgROOT@lemmy.wtf 2 points 1 week ago

I wonder if the fascists wanna do something with this much data on every single fascist fighter
