Is it really possible to tax the rich?
  • They write the tax laws and buy the politicians to pass those tax laws. So no, we cannot tax the rich.

  • YSK: US Senate offices pay attention to how many constituents are calling them on a topic. Democracy doesn't end at the ballot box
  • Unless you're wealthy enough to own two or three senators they don't give a flying fuck what any of us have to say.

  • is it ok if i don't identify as latino?? please don't say otherwise please
  • The 14th amendment insured chattel slavery did not end, it merely redefined it.

    FDR also created internment (concentration) camps

  • Settle your quarrels, come together
  • This about the working class coming together, not us coming together with our oppressors

  • is it ok if i don't identify as latino?? please don't say otherwise please
  • Every progressive policy that fdr pushed for was drafted and written by his openly socialist Secretary of Labor, Francis Perkins.

    I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races—that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermingling with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which will ever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together, there must be the position of superior. I am as much as any other man in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.

  • The last 46 presidents have been fascist.

  • Project 2025 Mandate for Leadership: Page 13-14
  • There have been versions of project 2025 going back decades under different names, different revisions and it's nothing more than a wish list. But rest assured that the pieces of legislation that are plucked out of it and get passed will be fully bipartisan. Like the antitrans bill KOSA that passed the Senate 93-3.

  • Capitalism capitalizing on the suffering of others, GEO stock is up 46%
  • Held until deportation and private prisons usually demand minimum bed quotas.

  • They pull the strings
  • You've taken pull yourself up by your bootstraps a step further by eating your boots.

  • How did this happen?
  • Comment removed - Dont be a dick

  • How did this happen?
  • the DNC losing was 100% the DNC. They decided to abandon the working class. We abandoned them.

  • How did this happen?
  • All it takes to eliminate the filibuster is 51 votes. They won't remove the filibuster because that's one of the rotating villains they love to utilized whenever they don't want to do something.

  • How did this happen?
  • It was blocked by the courts because Biden was trying to use measures that were not within his authority. He was advised multiple times on the proper way to go about canceling student debt. And he never did. Pelosi instructed him that he does not have the authority to use the measures that he tried to do. He talked about student debt as a pr headline.

  • How did this happen?
  • What part of it embracing war criminals like Dick Cheney, ignoring the needs of the working class, and mirroring much of Trump's policies is moving left?

  • How did this happen?
  • And all of that populist talk came to a grinding halt once companies like Black Rock started drafting economic policy.

  • How did this happen?

    Political collective narcissism, characterized by an inflated sense of superiority about one’s own political group, fosters blatant dehumanization

    www.psypost.org Political narcissism predicts dehumanization of opponents among conservatives and liberals

    Political narcissism, but not political identification, predicts dehumanization and aggression towards political opponents. Both liberals and conservatives exhibit this behavior, suggesting narcissistic group identification fuels political polarization, regardless of ideological differences.
