"Trump's lying to you so he can take your money and give it to his billionaire buddies, because he thinks you're stupid" covers literally every single policy he has — every scapegoat group, every bit of bullshit. Everyone in the party should say it till we're all sick of hearing it
Literally, every single Trump policy is just for that. Anyone who says that he is doing this to protect the average person is either a fool or a fraud.
This is vapid commentary. Who's is the "working class" to whom you refer? Where is the evidence that class politics would work based on this photo? I'm so sick of this. We are in an emergency because we use meaningless slogans like this which won't help us defeat evil.
Let's say these people. Or the 88% of us under 1 million in assets.
Identify an enemy. (Those vampires deserve that identity)
And fight them.
They are your boss. They are the politic. They are ur landlord. They are why everything is flimsy. They are why everything is expensive. They are the grift.
Yeah but a huge chunk of that 88% really like rich people. I mean honestly pro worker policies probably do better in the 2-12% range than the 88%. There just isn't a culture of class consciousness in the US outside of millenials scarred by 2008. What's the plan for changing that?
It's not, though. It's a strategy. Trump uses it with malice and misdirection and wins. He says undocumented and woke ppl are why life is hard.
But in truth, these people are why life is hard. They extract wealth for themselves.
And it will take actual leadership and messaging to make the case to us
I think we need to connect the dots but on what platform and how? I reacted strongly to the original post because I think the party can only do what the culture and media let it do. To shape that is a much more fundamental question. How do we make it clear they make life hard when they are admired?
One elon, liquidated would build housing for every homeless person.
One human being. Holding back 100,000. You could even leave him a billion (an ungodly amount already) and solve the problem.
Those 4 people alone own more than fifty countries. Full of people!
I'm responding to a post criticizing the Democratic Party from the sidelines. I'm trying to figure out a plan. But I don't think class based rhetoric works, based on recent elections, Latino voter movement, pop culture trends, and surveys of Gen Z. If you have evidence otherwise, what is it?
Looking at this picture, will the everyday MAGA crowd worrying about price of eggs, living in trailer parks, not having access to dental care etc. feel they'll be cared for? 🤦
The bald guy in the middle sold a knife to a minor who then killed three girls with it and the other two blokes had their social media company's spread fake news about it causing mass riots in the UK.
You say this as if half of your country doesn’t actually want this. They do. They admire these people and want them to be excessively wealthy if it means their little bug bears get fixed by Trump. No amount of Democrat speeches can change that. They do not care.
They call them "Job Creators", to lift them up to Olympus where Gods, who are creators, live. The right wing press has elevated and pushed this narrative for decades, brainwashing the working class to worship these people as gods and give them rights no other citizens have.
Big Brother Personified! These guys control our Data and minds! GOOGLE not only sources search engines but all our "documents"; Musk controls and censors the largest town hall in history; Bezos contracts with the CIA for a data cloud; and Zuckeberg self confessed to blocking democracy. And Sanchez?
Until the Dems get rid of the Corporate Dems they will never reclaim the working class, we are now a Oligarchy with the super rich in control. And if you think the threat of civil war is over dream on, we remain a nation at war with itself.
Kind of tempted to print out a dozen of these and mail them anonymously to Conservative family members who to this day will claim Trump is really looking out for them, "the little guy." And maybe that page out of Project 2025 about cutting medicare & social security.
We need a cure for these parasites. We are looking at a bunch of sociopaths who found a way to rape us, the country, the earth, and now even space. This is ok? What the fuck are we even doing here? REJECT THIS!
Bezos' fiance is an epic mess of silicone, smug social climbing and lewd stupidity. Very much like the Felon in the White House and his kids. What a vulgar group.
Our adversary is not Republicans, the wealthy, capitalism or Washington. Our adversaries are the corporations and oligarchs who pervert our institutions and corrupt our system. End citizens united. Tax and regulate. Erect a wall of separation between big money and government of the people.
This scrolling video shows bezos’ wealth 2ish yrs ago. It is from Zachary Jordan’s “The Rich People are Really Rich” page on his website. Jordan’s thinking about updating the page to include musk. But for now just watch my scrolling video 3 (yep, 3) times for musk: https://www.zachjordan.io/the_rich_are_really_rich/index.html
Good thing I'm not thinking about rebuilding a worthless party. Sometimes I feel like the biggest obstacle in our path to fighting fascism is the Democratic Party.
"The true ruler of this planet is the Divine – not puppets chasing hollow greed to mask their inner emptiness. They search in the wrong place, blind to the light that could guide them. 🌹✨"
The opposition party can’t function because the furthest left 10% keeps throwing hissy fits over issues that the working class mostly opposes or issues that they demand change but don’t want to offer a plausible path to achieving. It’s pure narcissism.
You think the working class gave two tugs of a dead dog's dick about abortion or which toilet someone takes a shit in before they were sold on it? Even if your premise was right its still the fault of the "opposition party" for being absolutely terrible salesmen.
Blaming the smaller group of people instead of the majority for the majority's failures is almost always wrong. If you need a group of voters, you have to go get them. If you don't want to go get them, be prepared to lose.
But if the majority doesn’t acquiesce to their every demand, they don’t vote in just enough numbers to lose hoping to coerce the dem majority into subverience like what the far right did to republicans
Progressive voters don't expect to get everything. What they expect is to get more than nothing. When they are offered nothing, which is what happened in 2024, they will use their voting power. You can't get mad at a voting block for using their voting power; that's what it's for.
The problem with your premise is the poor whites who believe that one day they can achieve as much as Musk if they just work harder! These are the same people who believe any sort of help from the government should never include minorities!
This is why I tell people to vote for the Greens from now on in everything. Not because I value the leader, not because they can do anything with the level of funding they have but because it creates a space from which an actual opposition can be grown. A good example: Bluesky users moving from X.
I have an asnwer. It's because it's the other way around. Biden isn't an Israeli asset. No president is.
In actuality, Israel is an asset of the American government. They're a loaded gun pointed at Iran set at a close enough range that US nukes would reach there before Iranian nukes reached the US.
I'm not certain I buy the premise there since it was just the other party of the faux two party system we have. Can that really be called the birth of opposition? To make this comparison just casts an even bigger doubt in my mind.
Where are they in communities? Wjere are they in red states? Where are they running for the positions that go otherwise unopposed? Nah, dawg. Of course not. They only show up to throw a wrench in the wheels of Dems.
They literally said so every step of the way this election!
I think AOC and Bernie are already working on this from what I've heard...but not with the Green Party. More of a tea party / freedom caucus from the left.
I think AOC is going to be a phoenix candidate. Running in the next primary, she'ill be publicly sabotaged by Obama, Clinton, Pelosi, Schumer, Newsom. They'll stack the deck against her, she'll move to be an independent candidate with Bernie's support. She'll run on 1 issue: universal healthcare.
Newsom will be running so it's kind of his goal to sabotage his opponents. That's how elections work. It'd be fucked if those not running try and rig the system to do the same, though. Newsom at least knows how to fight but he's too entwined with current power structures.
You may remember this already but Obama already promised that if Bernie won the primary in 2016 he would openly campaign against him. A lot of people, however, don't remember this.
She'll run on fighting the oligarchy. Picking a single symptom of it to fight against is short-sighted. We need an FDR style campaign that calls for upending the entire system that allows the super rich and big corporations to fuck all of us. Bernie had bi-partisan support among voters for it.
I agree that it's not enough, however, Bernie ran as a full anti-oligarch. Debbie W. Shultz sabotaged him in private. So they won't want to do that again. They'll do a small part of it instead. The CEO assassination celebration leads me to point to healthcare. That's why the sabotage will be public.
it’s an easy fix. But when your bought and paid for you have no moral obligation to anything but money and the other problem is people will vote against their own best interests if they are guaranteed the ability to hurt someone. Hate is a hell of a drug.
A mass of thinking humans who made simple changes to their behavior and choices could smash this gang to bits in 60
Days. Imagine just a 30% drop in their platforms let alone 50%.
Just log in somewhere else. People have the power, they’re too dumb or obedient or scared or clueless to use it.
Musk, Pichai ( odd man?) Bezos and Zac have their man in the WH. #DJT was never a billionaire being a lousy buissnessman but now
represents billionaire class oligarchy.
We had our chance. There is no way this would be happening if VP Harris had won. But this is what happens when voters choose hatred for others over love of their country, and what it's supposed to represent. Like 45 said, vote for me now and you won't need to ever vote again. He meant that 💩.
These don't have an end game. They are not worried about the optics because they do not see giving up their power ever again. There will be no "playing nice" from their side.
Welcome to Russia circa February 2007, when Putin gave his Munich speech.

That Trump ever got elected is an indictment of the voting public as much as any Democratic Party ineptitude.
What's goin' on, dude?

Deep Space Nine was very good at that. To me, this explains American Republican and Canadian Conservative voters.
And it also explains why I will never agree with them.

> fighting
To fight must mean to be opposites. And for as many petty performative conflicts they might play, at least here, they are on the same side
The dark ages...
Well, maybe not the one in white that is made of plastic…not good for your liver.
I'd also be curious why a "Russian asset" is allow to be an American politician and run for president by US security services if its so bad
In actuality, Israel is an asset of the American government. They're a loaded gun pointed at Iran set at a close enough range that US nukes would reach there before Iranian nukes reached the US.
