“Scam” in this case meaning, “I have no idea how any of this works”

Would that not be better than full fascism?

People are ABSOLUTELY going to forget. They always do.

Cute you think he’s scared of Bernie

Leftists in America are a tiny minority that happens to be in a kingmaker role because the Dems and Repubs are nearly evenly matched. There is no vast silent majority of Leftists. You’re in an internet bubble.

YOU need to get onboard with OUR ideas.

What power? You fuckers didn’t vote them INTO power

He did vote against the Canadian tariffs actually. It’ll pass anyway though.

We were within 2% of stopping them. If you bastards had got on board, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

Fuck you people for opening the barn door. We’re sick of cleaning up your mess.

Ignore the edgy teenagers.

IIRC most recently (as in, 100+ years ago)

• the anti-slavery movement

• the pure force of Teddy Roosevelt’s personality

There was also the “Southern strategy” where the Democratic and Republican party basically flipped due to racism.

Those voter ID laws would have been the death knell for democracy, as they were in the Jim Crow South. Stopping them had incalculable benefits for the American people.

Those psyop bastards are always worth replying to. Unlike reddit, lemmy doesn’t hide highly downvoted comments. So instead you have to very visibly call them on their bullshit.

Or you might just be an idiot

Stop minimizing transphobia and misogyny both by equating them.

What is this All Lives Matter bullshit rofl

So we’re back to “you can’t just call anything you don’t like misogyny”.

I truly don’t understand your angle. There’s plenty of actual misogyny to rage against without also appropriating the struggles of trans people.

think about it: why would anyone give a shit about what people say and do about their gender if they didn’t have strict opinions about gender roles and didn’t see women as the “weaker sex”?

JK Rowling: “am I a joke to you?”

Why should I? Misogyny is misogyny. Transphobia is transphobia. It’s tautological. Suggesting that transphobia is secretly something else requires a high burden of proof.

Fair enough, thanks

Debating whether it’s worth it to find links showing you Democrats doing all those things. You’ll probably just vanish afterwards, like all the propagandists.

The whole comment train is me saying you’re wrong, so rather than being insane, I think it’s consistent.
