They're just different sides of the same coin.

We are so screwed.

trishasnakes.bsky.social•22 days ago

You could even say "appeasment"

kat86.bsky.social•22 days ago

What?!?!?!? NO. There’s no negotiating with fascists. Open your eyes!

soupcansteffans.bsky.social•22 days ago

You're correct. Negotiating implies they're getting something in exchange.

Welcome to Vichy America.
We’ve been down this road before. First it was the crime act of the 90s. Then it was the Iraq war. Now it’s overt racism, misogyny and fascism. Dems continue to go right, they’ll be sitting in DonOLDs lap.

I believe the technical term is “rolling over and showing our soft underbelly” thank you very much.

The sentient pumpkin can safely skip at least one step as they speedrun German history: no need to ban opposition political parties. The Dems are ineffective anyway and make better scapegoats right where they are.

If we ever recover, a lot of Dems need to face judgment too

All the way to the top.

Elmo pretended he was Oprah and everyone found 10mm under their seat.

They always think the next election is going to be a replay of the last one.

And that coopting rather than fighting their opponents' arguments is the one cool trick to absolute victory.

There's definitely common ground with the working people of the US, but she's definitely saying "bipartisanship". You can't find common ground with fascists, and if you do, a duck is a duck, and a punch is a punch.

Oh, LITERALLY "collaborate"

profpalagoon.bsky.social•22 days ago

If we see any "Big Gretch" support in the coming years, we MUST bury that shit as quickly as possible.

fox-paws.bsky.social•22 days ago

I despise how dumb they are. You cant get along with the right. You may as be a malicious roadblock to them, thats what they do and it fucking works.

fwsa.bsky.social•22 days ago

Did we get sold down the river by Dems?

ericachristinao.bsky.social•22 days ago

Yes

archvillain.bsky.social•22 days ago

I think we need to ask seriously if some of these folks have received threats against their persons or against their families because literally nothing else explains the level of stupidity they are exhibiting.

archvillain.bsky.social•22 days ago

If the MAGATs are willing to threaten GOP politicians to maintain discipline, and if they are capable of the kinds of madness they've exhibited over the past 11 days, then surely the possibility that they've threatened elected Dems to capitulate cannot be summarily dismissed.

ericachristinao.bsky.social•22 days ago

The gop wants to kill all trans people. Trans people don't want any of us killed. So the democrats position should be only kill half of us?
That's what working with psychopaths gets you.

criminalerin.bsky.social•22 days ago

Nbd they just literally tried to KILL YOU and SHIT all over your OFFICES

YES

In the halls of the rich, there is no place to shit except for their office.

Lawl, of course Witmer would say that. She sucks so bad.

One day, probably soon, one prominent one who IS fighting mildly will get arrested for treason or something and the rest will go "we're working to meet them halfway on seeing what this is all about, I'm sure it is a miscommunication in some way. Many of us are writing a letter right now".
