They're going to sell us out, just like they did the Palestinians.

Liberals are fascists with blue paint.

flexthered.bsky.social•25 days ago

This is why I will never trust them. It's all part of their playbook. Suck a marginalized group dry for every bit of clout and then drop them like they mean nothing. In fact, attack them like they never knew them. Fucking spineless.

flexthered.bsky.social•25 days ago

But also as others have said, the Dems did everything but directly bomb the homes of the Palestinians either through silence or through vicious support of the occupation.

wesail.me•25 days ago

Dems fall for the okey doke so hard it's mind numbing. Sucks out loud.

This is the same energy as "The state will decide." and everyone knows what that means. Another (D) coward.

WASPification policies continue, despite Reality

the irony isn't lost on me...

Organized/professional sports are nothing but a cancer on our society. We’ve lost the plot.

"keeping powder dry" is deadly mistake with fascism
Every time dems cave on something =
“In the body politic as in the body personal, nonresistance to the milder indulgences paves the way for nonresistance to the deadlier.”

And women, this is the same argument we got about ending roe v wade

The entire government needs to go away and build up from scratch.

Ah, yes, like the issues with bigotry and persecution haven’t historically been centered around local communities.

https://Schiff.senate.gov. It is and has always been a non issue. Stop pandering you F’ng Chode!

We have to stick together as communities and have each other’s backs. We have to learn to trust each other while our leaders fail us. They can follow OUR lead. I’m with you.

Schiff is one of the worst

cirruslynow.bsky.social•25 days ago

Fox News beating this horse multiple times an hour 7 days a week. Part of the reason GOP in charge now. Unfortunately, this is not the hill for the Dems and thus the country to die on right now.

Chuck: "It's a states right to discriminate against trans citizens".
SMH 😓

I’ll go even further and say the Dems ALREADY DID sell out trans people WHEN they sold out the Palestinians.

Same for women, black people, the disabled, and every other vulnerable marginalized group you can think of.

The Dems endangered them all by backing genocide in an election year.

thomasav.bsky.social•25 days ago

Hey @schiff.senate.gov grow a fucking spine.

1redken.bsky.social•24 days ago

It appears so. Most D politicians have no spine, no scruples, and no shame! It seems they perceive protecting at risk folks as politically untenable, see, e.g., Newsom. My heart breaks.

manster2099.bsky.social•25 days ago

They’ll abandon any of their people to maintain their obscene delusions that the other side are simply their “distinguished competition,” and not a fucking death cult. Their politeness is disgusting.

someonegrandma.bsky.social•24 days ago

They all want the presidential nomination. Schiff in particular disappoints me. After all we went through with impeachment, and now he pivots - for why?

farther-afield.bsky.social•25 days ago

And we all knew as much.

dkbb.bsky.social•25 days ago

There are very real and important reasons we have FEDERAL laws. This is one of many that must be federal to ensure fairness and equity FOR ALL. The terrifying checkerboard of laws and rights that would come out of "let the States decide everything" in absolutely not what we need!

kevlarunicorn.bsky.social•25 days ago

Adam Schiff falling back on "states rights" like the racists of old who know damned full and well what was going on. He's a fucking coward.

I think about this a lot.

martycrabneck.bsky.social•24 days ago

Guess his point is that legality ultimately depends on who has the power to write laws and to enforce them and that justice shouldn't but in reality is a very different thing.

martycrabneck.bsky.social•24 days ago

However, murdering millions of jewish people was never legal under German law. We just didn't have independent courts back then.

Nevertheless, his conclusion is spot on: White moderates are the problem!

That passage from MLK has always been a balm for me.

wonderboyblue.bsky.social•25 days ago

The Democrats, including @schiff.senate.gov, are cowards and utterly failing to meet this moment.

hellmark.org•25 days ago

Seriously, asshole says this, while ignoring that some localities are actively trying to make being trans illegal.

bviola.bsky.social•25 days ago

Gavin Newsom already has. These guys think they will pick up supporters by selling out the trans community. More likely, they will lose the supporters they had.
