They do, but as a Missourian. I can 100% say they have no clue about how to do it. Legalizing abortion again, but electing the man that will get it nationally banned. It may be largely willful ignorance and apathy. But that doesn’t mean it can’t also be sexism and misogynistic attitudes too. They can support their personal right to choose but not give a damn about anyone else. After all there were Nazi jews. I have little doubt there are misogynistic women. For some of them it’s about there personal rights. Cognitive dissonance makes it for some really f***** up situations.

TWICE

I’d say you’re right. But they need to understand that capitalists will always need to find someone new to exploit, and fascists will always need to find someone new to scapegoat. They’re only safe on the other side of the world so long.

This is Ozma. They’re known for heavy bias and axe grinding. It attacks Democrats and that’s what was important to them. Not factualness or logic.

People trying like crazy to push all the blame on Democrats and Harris. Because after all. If they only did this one magic thing they would never lose. Right? It’s freaking magic. How could they lose.

Don’t get me wrong. Democrats absolutely deserve some blame. But I’m sure all the people that spent the whole general shouting that “they’re both the same”, “blue maga”, “genocide Joe/Harris” surely couldn’t have disenfranchised and demotivated people to stay home. They all got played and are trying to absolve themselves.

Yep, I’m sure at least a few were demotivated by claims of “they’re the same!” Or the hyperbolic brow beating of those chanting “genocide Joe/Harris” or "blue maga ". What we needed is solidarity. But the left is only good at dividing itself.

The United States has shipped Munitions and weapons to Israel for decades. It didn’t magically become about genocide just because you pretend it did. I would absolutely argue that we should reconsider or slow down or hold off on sending them more. But that wouldn’t have stopped anything. And it would be foolish to think otherwise. And yet there are still so many fools.

Let’s play a fantasy game for a moment. Biden cancels all future arms shipments to Israel. You’re happy and the situation is now resolved right? The zionists in the house and Senate would never unanimously override his veto. And just continue those shipments. Then he would have burned any political Capital he had for negotiations and goodwill. Leaving us with less chance to stop it than before. And only empowering Netanyahu and the ghoulish zionists.

This fantasy black and white thinking is a curse. That you and so many others are so terminally online. Getting high on your own supply of passing this rhetoric back and forth that you believe it. Sometimes things are complicated and have nuance. But what’s the point of nuance when you can just virtue signal for nothing and get nothing in return. You won. The Biden ministration nor the Harris administration will be sending any more arms or support to Israel after january. And no one will be arguing for a ceasefire either. Everyone is saved. And you certainly weren’t played a fool. Congratulations.

Most Nazis were just following orders. Many Hitler supporters and citizens of Nazi Germany though they were making things better. While being completely uninformed and having no idea of what was going on.

Worst of all. Trump’s white nationalist white supremacist and Nazi supporters weren’t a deal breaker. The truth is the Nazis and the people of Nazi Germany were not monsters. They were people. There are no monsters. Only people. Exactly like Trump supporters. So the comparison is valid and apt whether or not you are comfortable with it.

Evil is just banal. The cruelty that one does to cover up their own incompetence. When their ignorance is just as valid as your knowledge. Call them for what they are.

They’ve been paying attention. They’re just sealioninig in bad faith. Look at their post history. They desperately want an authoritarian capitalist like Milieu in Argentina to have dome measure of success. And will gladly cheer on a fascist like Trump if he will make them a few dollars more. No matter how many children are killed because of him.

If you go through the proper channels? Absolutely. If you have babysitters watching him and putting restrictions on what he can do like his last term? Absolutely. When his administration’s babysitters called him out and left the field. Telling people not to elect him again. And now he’s just surrounding himself with Craven yes men. And is going to go outside of normal procedure. To put more Yes Men in place. You can’t count on the lumbering giant anymore.

This is only the beginning. Once Trump’s actually in office again and starts attacking minorities this will likely ramp up considerably. Good job americans. Why do we have to be so f****** ignorant.

Only if you count the likes of Manchin or Sinema. Which would be foolish.

Missouri voted to legalize abortion again. Then elected the man who will get it banned nationally. Previously we voted to reduce dark money etc in local elections. And in the very next election repealed those restrictions again. People are fucking ignorant. Those in the state of misery doubly so.

Yep. If people thought the first 4 years were bad. The bar has been lowered so much its in orbit beyond the moon.

That worked out so well getting us Justice Gorsuch. When Ruth Bader Ginsburg died. Have things gotten significantly better since then? Or worse?

As usual I’m with Bernie on this. Why would Democrats want to immediately give Trump a new Justice to nominate. Democrats are too focused on Kumbaya and bipartisanship to actually nominate a Justice.

Whether it was or was not. It should be disqualifying for anyone to work for the government and do that. So I guess that means we’ll have to fire Trump. Because he want to do it to California.

As long as it helps him to fight off the boar menace. Damn teleporting hogs.

Life is disappointment. I still think a sane person on average would rather have a rainy day than someone piss in their Corn Flakes.

Always upvoty the Cody.

Mastodon and miskey are interface’s to the same open public protocol.

Bluesky is another, largely private, twitter like microblog. That can, but may never in a significant sense allow something close to what the fediverse does.
