Democrats won’t, they’re too busy “taking the high road”. And by “high road” I mean “bribe big enough to live comfortably in Thailand for the rest of their lives”

If you look at many people’s material conditions during Trump and during Biden, they haven’t gotten better. You can say whatever you want about Biden’s policies, his cabinet appointments, and how much Democrats have done when they hold power, but at the end of the day it hasn’t changed most folks’ lives one bit. It might be good metric-wise, but until folks feel like they’re better off it doesn’t matter.
Also, it’s hilarious to me how much shit Republicans seem to get done even when they don’t hold the House, Senate, and White House together, but the minute Republicans get one of those, suddenly it’s “oh shit Democrats can’t do anything”. It’s like Republicans are playing with nukes and Democrats are showing up with rubber band guns.
And no, I won’t be voting for Biden, I’ll be voting third party. And I know, you think “a vote for a third party is a vote for Trump”, but I don’t give a shit. I’ve been seeing this same “at least I’m not…” shit for 25 years and watching our country be sold to the highest bidder under both parties. At this point, if we can’t figure out shit out, we deserve to be razed to the ground.
Some folks have been screaming this for the last 4 years!
The Bidens are exactly the kind of people that would have said that Stonewall “went too far” and that they should have “peacefully protested” while using slurs to belittle everyone that was actually there.
I wonder if it has anything to do with Russia
Yup, AIPAC spent $14m to oust him in a primary. And rich folks voted him out. Nobody is surprised.
If they were competent then neither party would agree to the debate.
It’s hilarious to me that 40 years ago this person would have been solidly Republican. Now he’s a “moderate Democrat”. This term now means “conservative that doesn’t like Trump saying the quiet part out loud”
The same thing that happened to Digg
What, what “centrists” are saying that?
Yes. For white gay men, but not anybody else
I mean, since Biden changed the meaning it “ceasefire” to mean “temporary pause”, then of course he would be ok. Gives the IDF a chance to reload.
Wait, genocide is a progressive ideal?
Not saying it’s excusable, but I’m guessing he was exposed to a lot of Trump propaganda being in Russia and all
From the article: “Beyond ideology, the big consistency is that this is mostly a story of white gay men”
Uh, DUH!
So it’s not generically “queer” Republicans on the rise, it’s “gay white male Republicans”, then they changed the title to make it seem like it’s unexpected.
1: read the post 2: that’s still a ridiculous price
They did violate orders. They were ordered to not get caught.
I mean, it would ensure there are no more classified documents there
