The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.
"I am tired of losing and worse, I am tired of expecting to lose. We need Democrats who will use their positions of power not to constantly capitulate, compromise, and cave, but to fight-- not to say the word ‘fight’ because it’s the popular thing to do, but to actually do it and mean it."
She's calling Trump a communist.
They say the rapture is tomorrow. Again.
Do you think they'll really go this time?
God, I hope so.
This makes total sense.
Disney knows how to strongarm smaller companies if they really want to.
What an opportunity!
The Trump administration is launching an assault on left wing organizations. As if that's possible.
If there was any left wing organization he wouldn't be president.
Hey, remember how Republicans used to mock the left, saying they would lose a civil war because they hate guns? It turns out they have feelings now.
I don't condone political violence, but I love poetic irony.
That makes no sense! It's just an organization for consolidating a school of political ideology. If that's evolved beyond what's acceptable, we can let it die. It may have birthed a free society, but it has come to represent the complete opposite now.
Most democratic voters don't even like Democrats that much, but Republicans act like they've been indoctrinated to a religion. It doesn't make sense. Even people who don't like what's happening think the party can be rehabilitated.
So, Israel assassinated the Prime Minister of Yemen along with several of his cabinet in an airstrike last night.
It got a boost when 9/11 gave W an excuse to pass the patriot act and create ice. All of which was paving the way to what we have now.
This will not end with trump. If Trump dies the atrocities will continue.
One of my biggest fears with so-called "allies" against fascism is that they think it's all going to end with trump. He didn't start this, he hijacked it. This has been the Republican plan laid out by think-tanks for the last 40 years.
American gun culture and normalized bullying can explain away a lot of mass shootings.
The Democratic Party needs to get behind the progressives that are winning primaries if they want to prove they're willing to fix what's happening.
They support the same thing Nazis supported. It's not the label that makes it evil. The acts he's committing are evil. They are just something we've seen before and the last people who did these things called themselves Nazis.
Ok, so Trump is going through everything Hitler did to seize totalitarian power in 1933. Why do people who support what Trump is doing have a problem with us calling them Nazis?
The key to singing pop-punk is the nose flare.
There's a real story there with real news, but they don't want us to see that.
He took a trip to Israel on AIPAC's dime while true patriots were still trying to demand the Epstein files
Anti-genicide activists showing up and making a scene is the most predictable thing ever. And the mainstream news avoided the real story. Like they do.
The news has covered the Wesley Bell town hall in the predictable manner. The activists were unruly disrupters who didn't appear to have a purpose.
Yes they did. Cori Bush was against the genocide in Palestine and that's why AIPAC funded Bell's campaign to unseat her.
That weird little pipsqueak has somehow managed to convince a bunch of alpha-wannabees that he's an intellectual.
Superman is a good barometer for people's political leanings now. It's not overtly political, except in the way that showing empathy is considered leftist, these days.
Politics aside, everyone loves the movie. If they've seen it, they love it.
Unless they listen to Ben Shapiro.
I've been out of work for a couple months, now. And I usually don't answer the phone when I'm sitting on the toilet.
But today I did, and it was a job offer. So I tried my best to not sound like I was in the bathroom while I accepted the offer.
