Really wish they would start smaller and try to become a real alternative in even one state, not do these pointless vanity presidential tickets. Hard to take them seriously when they waste so much money on these every 4 years.

I'm converting to PMC Maoism.

I love (by which I mean hate) how 'purity test' has just come to refer to having any uncompromising moral position whatsoever.

Again it's one of those cliche situations of the left wants to not kill Palestinians and the right wants to kill all of them and liberals are like, "but you gotta compromise to get what you want ..."

Though hearing the Biden superpacs are focusing almost entirely on digital stuff makes me hope that most of these are just shills, even the downvoting is inconsistent, like the horde missed some comments or misinterpreted some of the commenters to think they're pro-lib when they're not. Very strange either way.

Oh it's absolutely pathetic. They should have cut ties with her when she backpedaled her first marginally pro-palestine interview shortly after she got elected (if I'm remembering correctly, could've been before). But the DSA isn't a serious organization so we get this too little too late severing.

File those performative articles of impeachment against Clarence Thomas.

And, "it's what the unions wanted!" about the railroad strike.

But that's the kind of power we lost! How horrible ...

There was one berating the OOP about how, now that they've cut ties with her, the DSA has less power. Like how could they be so stupid as to do that.

Completely missing the point that they never had her 'power' to begin with, I swear people didn't use to be this dumb about politics but here we are ...

95

Holding electeds even marginally accountable is bad acktuallllyyy ... This is just so exhausting.

I'll give it a shot.

  1. China can discipline individual capitalists but it cannot discipline Capital (in more vulgar terms, international capital).

  2. Since it lacks this capacity China is therefore dependent on Capital cooperating with it to achieve its vision of Socialism.

  3. Thus it will not achieve Socialism with its current trajectory.

Guess I'll be the Lib.

How is this any different than the German codetermination system? Honestly it seems like they're just copying it, though it does apply to small businesses too. Which is cool but I wouldn't call it workplace democracy.

Or when they finally split the gender atom. Radioactive gender everywhere.

I really love this trend of incels/redditors making anything to do with women gay. Like literal is it gay to fuck your wife kind of moments, it's just so funny.

Also the guy saying to him that being the victim is female coded is the funniest shit I've read in awhile.

Just one more lane!

The whole trans sports thing came up but fortunately they're not super confrontational so I just rattled off some stats, the line about how no one cared about women's sports before this and if you really care that much about fairness you gotta ban people like Michael Phelps too. They stopped after that, for now anyways.

Not sure who it's from but there's a new talking point about food not being as nutritious as it used to be but in like a conspiratorial way not cus the soil is degrading from industrial agriculture way.
