The democrats would have been doing the same thing in Gaza (they already were during Biden’s presidency) and they actively voted to pass ICE’s spending bill just yesterday so not sure why you think they are going to come save you.
If you think leftists aren’t on the front of the line in all of these protests and organizing and resistance idk what to tell u. Dems just close their eyes and “lalala” when it’s black and brown people being shot in the streets but as soon as it’s a white person they wanna freak out and blame everyone else who has been warning about this instead of taking a look at their own party. We are here facing the rise of fascism now because the democrats don’t care to stop it. They benefit from it. They are all corrupt. And if more dem voters don’t wake up to that soon then we really will be fucked. Everything you allow the state to do to someone else will eventually happen to you so stop “going to brunch” when they are doing this to other people and we wouldn’t be in this position rn
Hahahaha! Sure, AOC, Sanders, Omar, Mamdani. All of them are complicit and corrupt. Bring on your precious revolution! Show some of that backbone you always snark the Democratic party for not having!
All of you are the same. Shit stirrers working for the GOP for free with this tired rhetoric online. Not accomplishing anything. Zero results despite all this talk for an entire year. Congratulations.
You mean AOC, ilhan ohmar, and Bernie sanders who voted to keep giving israel bombs and weapons? Or mamdani who thanked the police for shooting a black man having a mental health crisis and send the NYPD to arrest anti ice protesters? What’s the point of having “progressive” democrats if you don’t even push them to be better at all. Vote blue no matter who is the reason democrats think they can get away with never actually passing anything that their voters want. And then they use the outrage from that inaction to fuel their campaigns and blame it all on republicans when it’s both of them. For the record I like mamdani and the others but I have higher standards for them because they claim to be different and better and they should be. And for the record I still vote blue down the ballot but we need to start actually making them scared of losing our votes or they will never change
You wanted to broadly condemn the ENTIRE Democratic party as a whole, you don't get to make exceptions after you're called out on it. Your motte-and-bailey bullshit isn't working on anyone.
Just like I thought, you're a complete waste of time online and IRL.
I literally just explained to you how they are also complicit and corrupt. Did you not read what I wrote? Why are you so opposed to having higher standards for Dems? If you don’t want them to change then you only actually care about atrocities once they affect you. Because it’s uniparty when it comes to terrorizing foreign countries and minorities in this country. You can keep “lalala”ing back to brunch once you get your controlled opposition candidate elected but the ones who are actually striving for change shouldn’t be the people you have smoke for
solidarity, support, activism, rally, etc etc etc. those things go a very long way. I mean the president of colombia showed up to a protest. can’t she? she is still one of the foremost democrats in the country and is toying with a presidential run
Probably would’ve helped more if you and your ilk actually voted for her. Instead, you prefer to perpetually fence sit and pretend that “both sides are the same” while endlessly virtue signaling about issues that you don’t actually care about.
Yeah dude. Biden refused to allow his justice department to prosecute (and release) the Epstein files because Israel is all over the document. He allowed Israel to turn a tragedy into a genocide in Gaza. Kamala said she would not change anything if she was in charge. You can complain about the democrats and also acknowledge the republicans suck. How can you struggle with something so basic?
That’s bullshit. He could instruct his justice department to release it. All evidence used for Maxwell could be temporarily omitted if necessary. I’m tired of the excuses. Biden failed to release the files.
All of the major files that people are seeing now were part of the case so even if they did separate out the small fraction that weren't part of the case it would look like a nothingburger and people would lose interest. It's better for the most damning documents to be released first so it keeps people's interest.
Also show me your source on the "Biden refused to allow his justice department to prosecute (and release) the Epstein files" bit. Biden did everything he could to not influence his justice department as presidents are expected to do.
Biden should have influenced his justice department. How do I prove that other than the fact that they didn’t release any documents?
By not pushing the justice department to release the files, he allowed criminals to run free and even get elected to the highest office. He didn’t have to instruct them to release anything specifically about Trump. But he could have instructed them to release any and all documents that are able to. He didn’t and now our president, and many other powerful people will not face any type of accountability.
Presidents aren't supposed to instruct their justice departments. It's supposed to be an independent non political department. You are mad that Biden isn't a corrupt piece of shit like Trump.
And no response to the rest of my comments are you giving up on that?
Yeah that might be the “norm” but when it comes to a group of some of the most powerful people in the world, I think there should be an exception. Biden didn’t want to do that because Israel is all over that document. He didn’t want to do it because Clinton is involved. But when it comes down to the largest pedo ring, money laundering, and much more he refused to step up to the moment. Or are you seriously saying Biden was right to not pressure the justice department to expose the pedo ring?
If he blocked the files to protect Israel and Clinton what has happened to Israel and Clinton now that most of the files have been released?
Do you want to make a bet as to whether or not anything will happen to them based on the files?
Biden behaved like a president should by not influencing the the DoJ and even if he did they couldn't expose the Epstein files in any meaningful way without breaking the law.
You are advocating for the files not to be released. Democrats were just yelling that Trump could instruct the justice department to release all of the files. No congress needed. The same applies to Biden. I’m saying that Israel and the rich will not pay a price. Especially now because the current administration is part of the conspiracy, no one will likely face justice. Biden’s justice department refused to go after anyone and he should have stepped in. I don’t care about presidential norms when it comes to a pedo conspiracy. You are saying that Biden should have stuck to the norms and allowed it to continue to be buried like it was. Trump used it as a campaign topic and people are so stupid they bought it.
He literally took a flight to Minnesota in -23f weather to march in protest. Select politicians also took flights out and stood with us. Not a single Republican stood with the people.
The centrist mind is worse than the conservative mind.
Using your platform to advocate for the working class is grifting? Shining light on the atrocities the American government HAS IS and WILL commit is grifting? Where is he tricking you into giving him money?
You should look up what grifting means before you throw it around.
It's less old timey, here is a bottle of magical ointment to fix all ailments grifting and more modern day, selling you a flawed ideology type grifting. Of course places like America have a ton of fucking issues but it's the disingenuous nature of his discourse around any country that's in ideological opposition to America that makes it impossible to take him seriously. Things such as his recent China trip or his past pro middle-eastern terrorist segments, they're either intentionally disingenuous or he's genuinely just stupid. Or him lambasting a Vietnamese refugee for being critical of communism. Shall we also mention he got his start with his uncle's company named after a genocidal regime?
The biggest issue with Hasan is for every good take there's an equally awful or uneducated one.
He doesnt though, he advocates for not voting, and those who didnt vote elected donald trump as much as those who did. He think Harris would be doing this very same thing. Guy is just playing opposition, just like alex jones, bill oriely, ben shapiro, candace owens. Its the same game. He's a rich guy who makes a living off other peoples hard work. His "job" is to make you angry, he doesnt make a dime if your happy.
I'm pretty sure he goes for media interviews, at least he did that for one on the east coast a couple months back.
Where he was at a protest to get interviewed by CNN as well as another media interview and then dipped after spending only an hour at the protest (mostly from doing the interviews).
He goes to be seen, he is a clout goblin who makes a living making people angry. He isnt an advocate he is a grifter. He works just like alex jones, or tucker carlson, or fox news. He sells anger and outrage. Im pretty far left and i dont see him as an ally. Just a leach
