Should we all flee the country? It’s a fascist country. It’s easy enough to fucking say, a lot harder to do.

Why should I move? How can things ever change if people keep moving out of red states? How about more of you move here and help us tip the scales?!

I’m a communist but I held my nose and voted for Kamala. You think we deserve this simply because we live in a red state. This doesn’t come down from the executive branch, the president is inconsequential. America voted for trump, do all Americans deserve what he’s doing? My rights just got stripped

Tell it to the rest of the anti-union assholes in the comment section. People think we deserve this simply because we live in a red state.

I’m a union worker who just had his collective bargaining rights taken away, and I’m being told it’s my fault because I live in Utah. Get a clue, you fucking idiot.

You’re either with the working class or against it. You’re no better than a republican. You’re fucking worse. You’re that liberal Malcolm X warned about. Duplicitous, smug, deceitful little shit. You’re subhuman.

I didn’t vote for fucking Trump! I’m a communist who held his nose and voted Harris. Fuck you. You’re either with workers or against them. Clearly you’re the enemy.

Apologize motherfucker.

By your logic, the trans folks would also deserve the persecution they face here simply by virtue of existing within the state’s borders. And not all of us are fucking Mormons. This is about my state, I was out there fighting against this, I’m not a fucking Republican.

You aren’t qualified to have an opinion on the matter. You don’t live in Utah, you’re likely not a union member, and you’re wrong. Nobody I know in the healthcare or teachers unions voted for trump. Fuck you for saying we deserve this you insipid clown. People like you are a drain on humanity

You’re a class traitor and an enemy to the working class. You think you’re an ally to anyone? You can’t even support those taking a stand for workers’ rights. You’re a garbage human being.

You don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. Somebody should shut your mouth for you.

When will any of these shootings and shit come before the citizen review board? They’re not.

How do you figure, dumbass? Because Utah is a red state? This impacts teacher and healthcare workers too…do you think they all voted Republican? Why not ascribe the same schadenfreude to all Americans for what trumps doing to them too? Let’s be consistent with your horseshit.

Can say the same for the whole fucking country. This bill impacts every public employee in the state from healthcare and education to sanitation, fire, EMS, police, and more. We don’t vote as a bloc. We don’t deserve this, especially not Republican. Fuck you.

Listen, you daft fuck, you’re the one out here shit talking saying that all the unions in Utah deserved this. You’re no fucking ally of anyone. I’m a socialist/syndicalist, we CREATED the union movement. Unions didn’t vote as a bloc for trump no more than the general pop did. Do we all deserve it?

Ok @nhc81.bsky.social , Biden and Harris only sent more than $32 billion in American bombs to Israel to destroy more than 90% of Gaza and kill upwards of 200,000 Palestinian civilians, women and children.

Maybe they got them mixed up with all the “no more DEI, here’s how to talk to ICE agents” emails they’ve been sending out.

No ethical consumption under capitalism, but we can try. General strike may be more effective. Or, godforbid, more folks like Luigi putting in work.

Do you huff paint? Fuck you, I’m not voting for a Republican, even if they are running as a “Democrat.”

My proposal is we put pressure on the DNC at the local level and if they don’t capitulate, run ourselves as independents. We need to protest and be disruptive. Write our representatives (who are ignoring us) and we need to exhaust all options. It may come down to fighting fascists in the street.
comment in response to

No, my thing is hoping people push back and force the DNC to change for the better. As it is they will never win another presidential election. They’re cooked.

She could have earned votes. Blame their hubris, and fuck you for pointing the finger. Direct your ire where it belongs, the DNC for being ineffectual rightwing fucks and the GOP for being literal Nazis. Don’t blame those who’ve been disenfranchised and alienated. Dipshit.

The ethnic cleansing was already almost complete. Biden’s administration funded it but it was backed in an unprecedented show of bipartisanship. This is US foreign policy at work. Trump would still have a tower in Gaza even if Harris was president. The problem is bigger than who the president is.

You mean the teachers unions, healthcare unions, sanitation folks who are impacted too, right? Fuck everyone who lives there because Utah predominately votes red? Same can be said for the rest of the country, Hoss. Real persuasive argument coming from fucking Montana.
comment in response to
post
And yet there was the biggest shift leftward in Utah than any red state. We have a religious theocracy here who tells their members how to vote. That’s a hard thing to fight, and we won’t be able to given redistricting and gerrymandering.

You clearly haven’t been reading. Do some homework. We’re in a bad spot. Fascism is capitalism in decay…and the facade over the true face of America is slipping. We were awful from the onset, now it’s just full mask off.

Blame the fucking DNC for failing to hold a primary and playing weekend at Bernie’s with Joe Biden’s dementia addled corpse and running one of the least popular options from the prior primaries (not to mention fucking over Bernie Sanders in 2016 and 2020). Blame them for courting the right not left

You do nothing. You think a vote during the presidential election being the extent of your civic engagement gives you any right to judge anyone? I’m out here showing up and protesting. Organizing, engaging in mutual aid, and training marginalized groups how to defend themselves.
comment in response to

That’s the most naive thing I’ve ever heard. The candidates only care about their donor/leisure class benefactors. They do not care about their constituents. We have no power over them, especially if they somehow feel entitled to our votes unconditionally.
comment in response to

Again, if you’re not an ally to the working class….you are the enemy. No different to the fucking Trump shitstains. So either do something productive or shut your mouth.

I’m a fucking communist, most of my union is left. Do we control the fucking theocracy that is our state? Not with all the gerrymandering and redistricting and disenfranchisement. UT had the biggest push left of any red state. Maybe you deserve everything because you live in the evil empire.

Listen dumbfuck, this impacts all public workers in Utah. Not everyone voted for the GOP. You think all the teachers and healthcare workers voted GOP?! Some of us are left of Lenin. I’m all about “make unions violent again.” These idiots forgot HOW we won our rights to begin with. Be an ally or stfu
comment in response to

It impacts all public workers. Healthcare, fire, pigs, sanitation, teachers, etc. Do you think all of us voted GOP? Fuck you, take your smugness and your schadenfreude and shove off. Ignorant bovine tool.

This is objectively and demonstrably false. The DNC has shifted rightward for decades and the Overton window now sits further right than even Ronald (the Devil himself) Reagan was. And it wasn’t about releasing hostages, it was not providing material support and funding a fucking genocide.
comment in response to
post
And yes. I’ve been writing a lot of letters to EVERYBODY. But it’s futile because they don’t care about elections or their constituents. Only their leisure/donor class benefactors. We don’t have tangible choices in elections. It’s a sham. There is no representative government here.
