      Also Democrats dropped MeToo as soon as there were allegations against Biden, did drone strikes against Pakistan since Obama, threw BLM under the bus at the first opportunity and are now doubling down on it with the woke 1 shit, are fully pivoting on trans rights as we speak and proudly brag about being better at building walls at the Mexican border than Trump. IDK if they ever did anything for inter and nonbinary people besides the option to put an X in their passports and i seriously doubt they will bring that back two years down the line when they are already misgendering trans women now, but i guess they would love to use gay cis people as their pawns in a proxy war like they do with Ukrainians.

        During the height of BLM there was a lot of talk about a NBA player strike in support. But then obama-medal reportedly called several of the leading figures and talked them out of it.

        I want all the brunch libs to explain to me why their guy had to quash a nonviolent people’s movement even though there was a dang Cheeto in office at the time. Then the Cheeto’s guys stormed the capitol and now he’s back.

        Oh dang if only we hadn’t defanged and maligned a people’s movement for justice on the eve of ICE going full jackboot?

        Oh boy I hate remembering this shit

      • Billions of dollars went to Israel to do genocide and Trump campaigned on releasing the Epstein files. Biden was not just complicit in but architected the Iraq war. So while it’s not Biden, I would love to see a single fucking thing that I care about that gets diverted off the track if they have a D in their name

    Amazing how they just write off Palestinians as doomed no matter what. So disgusting.

    • I saw a news clip of a recent opinion poll where Israel had a 67 point swing to be negative across every demographic. It is a radioactive, unpopular, expensive position to take. I don’t think Epstein’s pedophilia is as reviled as Israel.

    I find it fascinating how hard it is for idealists to imagine a better world. It should be the other way around, materialists should look at the world and go wow it feels hopeless. And yet we’re the ones that actually can imagine a better world and don’t give up on it. The idealists just give up entirely on a better world and then double and triple down on their own despair.

      That’s such an interesting observation. Maybe it’s rooted in how we come to the materialist framework, so it always remains available like a set of tools, and even though the world seems hopeless my tools tell me that there are opportunities for change all around us. Dialectical materialism is kinda like walking around with the pocket scanner from Star Trek

      Agree, I’ve noticed this too. My hot take is they’ve subconsciously recognized that making a better world will necessarily cause them discomfort with respect to loss of class privilege, so bullshit like this becomes a source of both self-preservation and self-flagellation, which is a delicious contradiction itself

    Lol I see a lot more flags that could get moved to either side of those tracks. Rich to think that these people still believe that trans people are not on the menu for Dems as well. That somehow the Dems are not interested in turning Iran to glass, just like the Republicans.

    I remember seeing this shit way before election. I made a response and waited after elections to post it. I know they were gonna lose. But even I didn’t know they were gonna lose this bad.

      Ironically trump has actually done more for climate change given the current situation but you know, in that monkey paw sort of way he does everything.
