The fascism party is doing a fascism and the only solution is to vote for the fascism lite party.
Wow guys, we're seriously going to act like the government everyone is defending as "not fascist lite" isn't actively funding and enabling genocide right now?
Sometimes, stopping fascism means actually working within an alliance between moderates and those further left. I've got no problem doing that.
Let me know when an actual alliance happens. Did the moderates concede anything in the name of alliance or simply demand the left move rightward and tell them there is no alternative? Wasnt Pelosi endorsing primary challenges against progressives in Trumps term? Doesn't really sound like they're making alliances.
Started happening in 2020.
The part I pay close attention to is climate. We got the carrot portions of the Green New Deal enacted as the Inflation Reduction Act.
The inflation reduction act as passed can't hold a candle to the worst parts of the green new deal, they couldn't even touch minimum wage. If thats alliance, I'd hate to be their enemy.
It's what we could get through the Senate. That body is designed to favor the most conservative.
I'll take what I can actually get over an actively hostile government any day
Now you're moving the goalposts what happened to the supposed alliance? Im not talking about what you'll take out of a broken legislature, im saying there has been no effort on an actual alliance with anyone to the left of centerist democrats. No longer endorsing people who challenge them is hardly an alliance. Neither is what every other country would simply call a normal infrastructure bill. If things like preventing bridges from falling down and fixing roads long out of spec is a gift to progressives, then the Democrats are truly an incompetent party and there's little hope anything gets done regardless of who's in charge.
Hardly. We got what what was possible as a minority within the Democratic party which held an incredibly narrow margin in the Senate.
So no alliance.
Without involvement, we'd have gotten less than nothing, so you're just trolling.
You started talking about alliances, and when pushed for any indication that's real you now avoid talking about it all together. I'm not the troll here. We were talking about some prospective alliance and you failed to substantiate any proof such a thing exists, all you can do is detract from the point of the exchange. That's exactly what moving the goalposts is, the one trolling is you.
Theyve given you the illusion you have a seat at their table. There is no changing the way the oligarchy works. They will do nothing that impacts their power, there is no reforming within
Ok cool, you better not fucking vote then or you're a hypocrite.
Well no shit
Fascists lose all the time, but you guys have to get to grips with the idea that it’s fascist fightin’ time.
It's been fascist fightin' time since Mussolini coined the term in 1919. Centrist Democrats have spent the past four decades moving to the right to try to win the favor of members of the party they're now calling fascists.
Of course Republicans are fascists, but centrist Democrats don't fight fascism. They capitulate to it.
The people who dealt with the last batch didn't teach their children about bayonets
Is the choice between getting stabbed 3 times vs getting stabbed 2 times also a conundrum for you? Perhaps you just sit it out and let the stabber decide?
the only solution is to buy a black flag from Amazon, revel in the irony, and then set their yachts on fire with them inside
I wouldn't call them fascism lite, more like left/cener-authoritarianism. The proper language is essential.
