In posts that user has given different replies to the same comment of mine multiple times, minutes apart, seemingly unaware they were doing so. Sus to me.

Back when twitter was a thing, for my rep had a social media ‘minion’ army that managed propaganda accounts, multiple people per account to pretend to be voters with ‘concerns’ about Dems. This felt the same.

Progressives have been dropping the ball since before 2010? Why yes I agree.

Ah, so you were. Ngl wasn’t following usernames and somebody’s ‘y tu Bernie’ had me rage posting

Progressive policies are popular. But progressives have done a shit job of turning that enthusiasm into political capital. Waiting every four years for a nationally appealing, ideologically perfect candidate to magically fall in our lap seems to be a winning strategy—for republicans. Too many would be progressives give up if they can’t have the whole cake handed to them instead of rolling up some sleeves and learning how to work from scratch.

Books. Cspan. Try again. I can’t spoon feed you 30 years worth of politics in a lemmy post. Nothing you posted was in the parking lot of the stadium of truth.

Yeah. None of what you said it true tho? For the border I’d recommend this book Everyone who is gone is here by Jonathan Blitzer. And they can’t codify without the votes? Remember Obamacare? To agree with you I’d have to only become political aware a couple years ago and never read more than headlines. Pick up a book, watch some cspan, try again.

Sigh. There was a moment when I first joined lemmy that I was impressed how liberal of a space it was. And then I wandered into the comments of posts concerning gender. Fuucking depressing. Really, people would benefit from a gender studies class, or even anthropology or family and society, but for some everything is an attack and I doubt they’ll listen.

Riiiiight. They’ll never overturn Roe, that’s got judicial standing. It’s downright hysterical to suggest such a thing could happen. It’s not like we could live in an America with a 3rd of American women under an abortion ban right, and a national ban looming? RIGHT? And it would be unthinkable to intentionally and irrevocably separate families right? Not for any procedural necessity, but just to brutally traumatize anyone who tries to make a crossing. That’d be a pretty fucked up inhuman policy RIGHT?

Ty, I appreciate you throwing these type of breakdowns in the comments of ‘national’ polls too.

Nah, I’ll bite

Candidates from the two major parties need signatures from 0.5% of qualified primary voters from their party in the congressional district. For parties not on the ballot for the last election, candidates must collect signatures from 5% of all general election voters, according to state law.

I don’t hate this for statewide level* offices. Election offices are under funded enough, they don’t have the resources to fuck around with every joke party somebody makes.

God I picked a shit time to tune in. They should have gone with the sax.

Hm. You seem to contain multitudes. Perhaps literally.

Absolutely rage bait. Imo the language might read as non combative, but in application it feels like just a blind to slip a ban. Read through some of their exchanges with Mx. SMCF; it’s pointing a hand in somebody’s face and using the ‘I’m not touching you’ of defenses.

cool cool cool. When does she keelhaul him?

I’m not going to vote blue this November.

Now, how credible do you believe that statement to be?

Don’t look the pile of evidence in my user history-that’d be makin a bullshit critique.

He says he’s got nothing to do with it. Yet-he’s got senior advisors and past appointees that helped write it and support it. He says he needs the heritage foundation -the organization that made it, to accomplish his goals. His super PAC runs ads for it. He stands in front of a podium and calls for things that are pretty identical to what’s in it.

Stop watching the mouth and look at the goddamn hands.

He will say anything to lever himself more power because the only way he out runs the shadow of his crimes is by becoming president again.
