How many dead Palestinian kids will it take for you to change your vote?

They've explicitly told us it's perfectly fine to sacrifice entire demographic groups for the sake of poltical expediency

What the libs have done is create an avenue of least resistance, where the party elites correctly understand they're free to condemn whole demographics to death to purchase the poltical loyalty of others

This is quite literally the death of solidarity and labor organizing in the United States and there's no coming back from that

Today it's Palestinians and immigrants, tomorrow it's native americans and trans people and on and on until they reach the one demographic they've always wanted to dump and destroy; the black working class

This is how fascism in America truly comes about, and so many have already failed what even five years ago would've been called the easiest test imaginable

The dems normalized genocide, it's Joever folks, this is what unplugging the life support of a left tradition looks like

It’s also truly incredible how no one can also see the mass extinguishing of the proletariat happening as more and more wealth is stolen by the bourgeois as they go all in on AI in hopes that enough people will be numbed by the unregulated spread of information and be kept in their digital bubble while the world burns, people die, and more people end up without a job.

But 2029 is the most important election of our lives!

At least AI is a nonstarter and we've reached the part of the bubble where they're trying to cram it in everywhere possible to try and figure out a way to break even on the cost. AI is $600 billion in the hole

I hope so, but it only seems to be picking up at work because it makes tremendous gains in P R O D U C T I V I T Y

Do you really want heated-gamer-moment to win then just because mr-beast isn't perfect?

The funny thing is they could both represent either party

Yeah our whole political system is just the spiderman pointing at spiderman meme except they're both hitler instead of spiderman

If you tolerate this your children will be next by the manic street preachers.

If they'll do it to Palestinians they'll do it to anyone who gets in the way. And it's blood in blood out. The Libs have given their consent to any act of savagery, any crimen any abomination. They can't retract that now. They can't say "this is too far, this is too much." They signed on the line in blood. They gave their entire soul over to evil.
