Also imagine branding someone that is just doing the literal status quo as a maverick. Liberal media, not even once

NBC News endorsing the notion that the woke mob run culture via tweets while the brave government does what it can to stop them from ruining everything for the hard workers.

Probably not surprising at all, but amazing how Israel has caused all the Democrats people here somewhat liked to show their true colors.

Eventually you’ve seen enough scratched liberals to fully internalize that liberalism is the moderate wing of fascism.

Fetterman is good representation of many US citizens. Mildly left wing on economics, mixed on social issues, doesn't give a shit about the actual consequences of foreign policy

Yet all leftists and progressives will get blame from his supporters if he loses next election.

Noooo you have to vote for him even though he says he in no way represents you.. noooo you can't just call him a liar for pretending to be progressive

If by maverick they mean "like John McCain" then sure, whatever, get in the pit maverick

Being a "maverick" is when you get absorbed by the blob and become an unthinking vessel for its will

"progressive" in US politics means that you aren't a 100% neolib. If you are 80% neolib you are still progressive

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 55 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Anyone who remotely runs as a progressive in this country: "LOL PSYCH! I'M RIGHT WING!"

Normies: "Wooooow.....this clearly is a condemnation on anything left-wing as a whole."

Candidate in the election: I am literally Vladimir Lenin

Candidate after the election: I am literally John McCain

(Probably replace Lenin with Bernie Sanders or Corbyn if you're being less hyperbolic)

This'll teach me to not participate in bourgeois elections ever again.

This is pretty much every Democrat but you're going to hear about how he's absolutely necessary because his opponent wants to nuke the Three Gorges Dam and send every arab-American into a concentration camp.

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 26 points 11 months ago (1 children)

his opponent wants to nuke the Three Gorges Dam

Most libs probably want this too, they're just as insanely anti China as chuds these days

deeper-sadness

We’ve officially reached that point (may have always been here) but seems more blatant these days.

Your lesser of two evils lineup, everyone!

“I support the right of the settlers to continue their extinguishment”

Vs

“The white race must be protected at all costs to ensure a society for women and children”

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 22 points 11 months ago (1 children)

From the same people who want to nuke St Petersburg and put every migrant in a concentration camp

Dumb question since I still don't know much about this dude but did he simply win because he survived a stroke and also wears hoodies because he's like me fr fr????

I remember seeing Dems championing him all over reddit but I haven't seen anything from this guy that would suggest that he is progressive, like at all. Even from a Dem brainworm definition of "progressive".

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 47 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

He also was running against Dr. Mehmet Oz so there was probably some element of "Who do you want, the large adult son or another TV dude."

[–] roux@hexbear.net 28 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Yeah I forgot the who Dr. Oz thing. Jesus Christ no one won that day.

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 38 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Tbh, he only won because the alternative was Dr. Oz, who is now broadly hated for being a genuine piece of shit and harming tens of millions of people with his quack TV grift. If they'd run for office 15 years earlier, he'd have beat Fetterman.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 23 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

My grandma watched his show regularly and thinks all doctors are smart in all fields. But shes a staunch Democrat so i wonder how she feels about him now. What won, celebrity worship or party politics lol.

She never abandoned Ellen so. But also Ellen didnt run for office as a Republican lol.

A real Maverick move to go in lockstep with the Nazi regime, eh. Also surprised this wasn't posted in the Dunk Tank.

When someone asks me why I'm not voting in this next election, I'm just going to tell them it's because there isn't an option for candidates to get the wall. 😃

[–] Grandpa_garbagio@hexbear.net 21 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Legitimately can't tell if he got brain damage from the stroke or was just lieing
