To be fair, we did and we pissed it all away, ignoring the left who was warning us this is what Republicans wanted.

aeinstein.bsky.social•11 days ago

"IF" ... we had a moral and intelligent society imagine how much better we would be. No government official gets elected without the support and approval of the majority of the voters.

Ever seen a rose in a sewage pit?

carlesscastenada.bsky.social•11 days ago

We know why.

Tragically and perfectly said.

unixux.bsky.social•11 days ago

Look at the whole Iran debacle : instead of doing what literally the whole sane world does - as Merz and Reza Pahlavi spelled out - some insist on sticking out their necks in support of literally the worst enablers of terror and oppression and Putin’s partner in murder

Who the fuck is “We”

accountability lies with the worthless fucking garbage humans who voted for Trump

rhetoricallyhere.bsky.social•11 days ago

there is increasing noise about the validity of the most recent election.

totesnhose.bsky.social•11 days ago

So many more times than twice, and the dems suck for the most part. Come to think of it, there’s a non zero responsibility there…

tdwolf.bsky.social•11 days ago

How much better we'd be?

We'd still be fairly oblivious to what's f*ed up.

Muh both sides! 🥴

dixon7.bsky.social•11 days ago

I remember when that was the case. They passed Romneycare instead of universal healthcare like every decent country already had.

sazerac66.bsky.social•11 days ago

Well said.

thaeross.bsky.social•11 days ago

I agree with the sentiment, but it’s worth mentioning that when the Dems DO hold the cards, they do little to nothing with it. When we force our way out of the current regime, I will not settle for the way things were, because the way things were was 👎💩

wagewar4.bsky.social•11 days ago

They don't do "nothing", the vote to increase ICEs budget as well as police and military my enormous amounts, try to disarm citizens, passed that internet bill that put so many sex workers in danger, deport record amounts of people, and dont forget the drone strikes on civilians!

johngpettus.bsky.social•11 days ago

They provided healthcare to 20 million people, which saves the lives of 20,000 people PER MONTH since then.

How many people were killed by drone strikes? 10? 100? 1000?

Tearing down the Dems instead of acknowledging you don't get everything you want dissuaded 10M voters we needed to stop Trump.

wagewar4.bsky.social•11 days ago

They provide healthcare??

Wtf?

Doctors provide healthcare.

Democrats just act as liasons between the people who need it and the actually evil insurance companies charging for it.

AND CONTINUOUSLY EXPAND ICE, SURVEILENCE PROGRAMS, WEAPONS CONTRACTS, and all the other shit a capitalist party does

johngpettus.bsky.social•10 days ago

This is childish and dishonest to reply with semantics instead of substance.

You’re not a serious or honest person, so no point talking to you.

My points all still stand.

wagewar4.bsky.social•9 days ago

you didn't make any points you put forward a false premise which I pointed out.

Begging Democrats to listen to leftists who have the answers to the questions you keep running in circles playing confused about

royquapaw.bsky.social•10 days ago

So you're saying that democrats are just as evil as republicans, so I'm guessing you didn't vote dem, and now are mad that Trump is president. Is that correct?

Oh, and I'm a doctor, and let me discuss RFK JR with you if you would like sometime.

wagewar4.bsky.social•9 days ago

If you mean you are a medical doctor, then thank you for your service, you are braver than a u.s. marine.

I'm not really mad that trump is president, but of course we hate him as much as everyone else does. It's pathetic when libs call me MAGA for pushing back on their right-wing policy

wagewar4.bsky.social•9 days ago

Roughly equally evil I suppose... but undeniably more effective.

Idk if you are being honest or just doing the lib thing of refusing to see other viewpoints... but for us non-bootlickers the efficasy of the democrat program in forwarding the shared goals of both parties is part of why we hate them

thaeross.bsky.social•10 days ago

I’ll take “things I didn’t say” for $500. Could you explain to me why centrists like yourself insist on making assumptions about the voting habits and beliefs of others? I think it’s because you’re so in love with your own voice that you’ve forgotten how to listen. That’s why Harris lost, btw.

johngpettus.bsky.social•11 days ago

20 million Americans got healthcare last time, which leads to 20,000 fewer deaths PER MONTH from lack of care.

You can call all those lives "little to nothing", but they, their families and I all think that's pretty important.

clank-ruby.bsky.social•11 days ago

We are only talking about a few two year periods here...

When the Dems DO hold the cards, there is such a fucking horrible mess left by the GOP that the Dems only have enough time to right the ship before the country and economy collapses.

GOP destroys, Dems rebuild. Vicious cycle

johngpettus.bsky.social•11 days ago

This is so true.

Do you agree, like other election conspiracy theorists, that VP Harris has in on it?

coastally1337.bsky.social•11 days ago

When the Dems hold all the cards it means the Senate Parliamentarian rules America.

orangesoylent.bsky.social•11 days ago

I know! It was crazy. The Biden Administration did get one bill passed in Congress. SMH.

giselefd.bsky.social•11 days ago

I realize that many people don’t pay attention to politics, but I can’t understand anybody hearing even just a little bit of what Trump was saying during the campaign that would not vote against him.

rickyleejr.bsky.social•11 days ago

Really? Decorum and bipartisanship will rule.

mike-aitch.bsky.social•11 days ago

Dems rolled out the red carpet for this shit.

Wake the fuck up.

royquapaw.bsky.social•10 days ago

So you're liking this better?

mike-aitch.bsky.social•10 days ago

Again, the dems have helped create “this” for fucking decades. They are not, nor have they ever been opposition to “this.”

Your insistence that they are has enabled “this”.

I hope you’re fucking happy.

royquapaw.bsky.social•10 days ago

I’m not and your assumptions about me are wrong. Likewise. Have a great day.

mike-aitch.bsky.social•10 days ago

As is your assessment that rejecting fascist dems means embracing fascist MAGA.

royquapaw.bsky.social•10 days ago

MAGA and fascism is the same. Fascist and republicans and or democrats is not. You appear to reject anyone ergo your cause will not advance. You need me just as I need you. To go after me is frankly a waste of both our times.

charlessarver.bsky.social•11 days ago

Accurate analogy 🤡🤡🤡🤡
