Thanks sorry. I am a bit slow this morning. Sad state of affairs that education is being fucked by the policies of Trump

This isn't under Trump's orders it's the democratic governor

And for some reason it’s always the powerless left’s fault for being inflexible about genocide or something.

That was an easy block, even if you’re trying to backpedal, votescold.

Lmao I saw it

I think that’s another thing - at least in recent memory (but definitely going back further) is that liberals never have to concede anything to the left, or it’s so pitiful in the context of broader agenda. It’s always one way

American culture is so reflexively conservative that being a leftist is like playing politics on the hardest mode all the time.

America's idea of a leftist seems to corresponds to the rest of the world's centre right.

They don't see us as potential partners in coalition but as their disobedient children, insubordinate and withholding and manipulative. Everything follows from that.

We're only powerless when we demand stuff. We're the most powerful and consequential voting bloc in the country whenever they lose an election

Why doe New York insist on electing these fake democrats like Hochul and Adams. ‘Tis a mystery.

dingokayfabe.bsky.social•7 hours ago

Yeah I think the reason is easy enough to see for those willing to confront it

dingokayfabe.bsky.social•7 hours ago

Guess I should be specific anyways before the waffle hate allegations.

I’m referring here to the tendency of liberal officeholders to tacitly or even openly support persecution directed towards leftists, rather than specifically Biden admins stance on Israel-Palestine, though I also condemn that.

Or shit like this. The Democrats have for about a hundred years but most importantly since 1945 have waged a war to minimize and eradicate the left in American politics https://bsky.app/profile/impemboganecue.bsky.social/post/3lj4b3homfs2t

A lot of "liberals" are actually Republicans who can't win as a Republicans in their state/district. It's a problem for coalition building!

New York and California in particular are chock-full of them, with Eric Adams being only one of the most blatant

I’ve been noticing a growing break in the leftish liberals and rightish liberals. There’s a chasm forming between the people that at the very least tolerate leftists and those that would rather revive Hitler than have labor unions

waluigiyaoi.bsky.social•5 hours ago

Sadly, most of the later faction is what makes up the gov

Fair, but is Hochul really a liberal? She’s a Dem but I’m not sure I’ve seen any evidence she’s anything but conservative
