Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez joined the senator at rallies from Nebraska to California to tell how unprecedented wealth and income inequality are threatening democracy and working families.

    You’re a spineless coward who can’t even admit there’s consequences to fighting billionaires.

    Billionaires actually currently admitting to deporting innocent people to gulags and all you can say is, “The billionaires won’t hurt you, trust”.

        The billionaires came for the immigrants, and you didn’t speak out.

        The billionaires came for the Palestine protestors, and you didn’t speak out.*

        The billionaires will come for you, oh yes, they will come for you. And there will be nobody to speak out for you.

        *The ones being disappeared into unmarked vans by your billionaire idols you bootlick

            You’re literally on Lemmy lying to people about how this man

            Is not going to hurt anyone.

            And you’re obsessed with making this man

            Your #1 enemy.

              You are really struggling with conversations that didn’t happen.

              It appears the obsession is with you.

            Likely he’s in a troll farm, but that’s the thing: if he succeeds in his job of full billionaire autocracy, he will have destroyed his own usefulness. When they don’t need to pay trolls they influence culture, they will make them into slaves along with the rest of us.

              So this is the first time this has happened to me since joining Lemmy but apparently my previous reply was removed for being… uncivil? I never would have guessed that’s where the line was. Sigh.

                I’m surprised, because I think I push the lines of civility so much further than your comment did, but not shocked, because the only comments of mine to be deleted by mods were comments disparaging Russia.

                So at the least suggests to me that someone is weak and insecure.

                  Yeah, it’s not the first time I see utter disdain (to the point of mods getting involved) in lefty spaces for suggesting the influence of Russian propaganda in certain kinds of talking points, or even the mere existence of it at all.

                  I remember on Reddit on r/GreenAndPleasant they banned me for pushing back to a conspiracy-brained guy who talked like a literal nazi bot, who said the only reason we hate Putin is that we’ve been primed by Western propaganda. So I showed him with primary sources from their own prime time TV, sidestepping Western propaganda altogether, how genocidal their attitude towards Ukraine (and other neighbors) really is. Turns out that was a no-no. I wonder if I had said Putin is good — something tells me they would have banned me all the same because direct defense of Putin is literally Russian propaganda, they just want to cultivate the idea that suspecting Russian propaganda is paranoia brought about by Western propaganda brainwashing.

              NOW billionaires are a problem? It was cool when they picked Obamas and Biden’s cabinets? They were cool when they worked behind the scenes, but all of a sudden they are the bad guy? It’s Democrats propping up billionaires along with Republicans, gotta keep that campaign money flowing

                Billionaires are the problem now, billionaires were the problem back then, and bootlickers who lie to everyone and say, “billionaires won’t hurt you” are part of the problem.

                That’s right, that’s you.
