Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind (except towards liberalism).
- No liberals (unless you are a masochist and enjoy the abuse).
- Strictly no downvoting (downvoters may be community banned, 4 the lulz).
- Bernie Sanders is still a liberal.
- This is a genAI friendly instance, so no complaining about genAI content.
We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

who said anything about trump or kamala? I certainly didnt. the point was cattypat reasoning was shit on a number of dimensions.
the idea that people will take the time to show up for a candidate who is absolutely abhorrent to them on any dimension just because someone else thinks the other options are worse is asinine and isnt how people behave.
Say you have two people both whom you find disgusting, which do you have dinner with? answer: neither. fuck em both.
and that my friend is how people vote. a politician's job (or a political party) is to make sure they are not abhorrent to the most people. kamala and the DNC has failed at this, repeatedly, for decades, with their base. hence the absolute collapse in support over a genocide and economic abandonment of the middle class. Its why mandami is eating the DNC's lunch in NYC.
