LARGE scale betrayal!

mexamfam.bsky.social•8 days ago

Agreed, this was a group effort to fuck us all.

All of them, including Trump will eventually have to pay for their disregard for life, their greed, and their crimes. They don't even care about the mess they're leaving for their children and grandchildren. They're scum.

The biggest betrayal is by the voters and the non voters

dervishe.bsky.social•8 days ago

And the majority of american voters...

salientsmith.bsky.social•8 days ago

The largest contributor is the US electorate. That's a difficult problem to overcome unless the other major party learns how to appeal to people who are attracted to Trump, thus neutralizing the toxicity. But by then a lot of the US may already be gone, sold off to the highest foreign bidders

Start organizing your community get ready for the next level of disruption. Protests are a great public facing stance but we need to go to the next level. Women’s groups, Men’s groups, Young peoples groups, Progressive Pro-democracy groups etc

This is a class war.

Too bad those trailer parks racists dont see it this way.

blooskyblue.bsky.social•8 days ago

the trailer park racists are only racist to liberals who have never entered a trailer park lol

research the in-group bias of white and black people. might learn a thing or nine

blooskyblue.bsky.social•8 days ago

it's a race war

college admissions, law school, med school, fortune 500 promotions all give benefits and advantages to black and brown skin and the female sex lol

everyone cries equality until they get it and we learn they really want advantages

How to stop a madman who has law enforcement and proud boys power at his fingertips

deedeebehave.bsky.social•8 days ago

soo lazy pigs and guys who live in their moms basement/are banned from uhaul? they’re not unstoppable by any means, they’re both kinda useless groups

For an authoritarian to work, your representative has to give up their power, which is what they’re doing.

Yeah, Trump himself is not surprising; demagogues are always around, the right-wing is always eager for one. The shocker is the conversion of almost every Republican in Congress into a Stepford Wife. If these wimps were around in 1974, Nixon would have served out his term. Do they LIKE bootlicking?

And fuckin Heritage Foundation with Steven Miller and Russell Vought. (There is a second phase for Project 2025)

Also, the people betrayed themselves. Closer than 90 million people didn't bother to vote...some of this is on citizens for sitting out for whatever reason.

Greed will kill this country.

jpandre52.bsky.social•8 days ago

Agree 100%

The establishment has enabled trump same they did with Hitler, he is doing their bidding.

"This is going faster than Putin even came close to going in terms of gradually eliminating democratic institutions and democratic freedoms,” said Rubin, who witnessed Putin’s early years in power at close quarters. “It took him years. We’re not even looking at six months here.”

That's scary ☝️☝️☝️

The GOP Congress and the GOP Supreme Court.Important distinctions.
