I approve the weakening of the US armed forces. That way when you fuck heads start invading Greenland, Panama, Mexico or Canada at least some of your morale and effectiveness will have been sucked away.

What about the rest of the Democrats? Cool with it?

Spineless preemptively compliant cowards.

Are you seriously trying to I pull a “it’s the Jews’ fault” right now?

The problem with you yanks is that you’re too far up your own asses. How predictable is it that the whole discussion under this post is about your last election. Nobody cares any more. Your country is lead by a fascist doing fascist things to you and abroad. And all you do is bicker about what happened half a year ago. Your country is wading in the waters of Rubicon, what are you going to do NOW about it?

Some of those that burn crosses???

Because you would refuse you would not be the one asked to do this order. You have a functioning conscience, which makes you unqualified for such a position.

A system cannot fail those it was never meant to protect.

Someone who cares about him needs to take him off the internet permanently.

As a loyal subject to HRH King Charles III, I propose agent 007 for the job. For King and Country.

No tomato throwing here because I just wish it were true because it sounds simple. But I just don’t think it works. So long as work exploitation and the profit motive persist, any gains will always be precarious. I mean, it’s much harder to build something than to tear it down, as we also see with the DOGE monkey business. We have to win every time but they have to win once.

So I would argue that certain fundamental moral imperatives would have to be codified as inalienable rights, constitutionally and declaratively. So for example it should come to be considered illegal and morally repugnant to rent humans, just as it is to buy them. It should also be considered illegal hoarding and gross to pass down intergenerational ownership of capital (“passive assets”, “investments”, and the like, I’m not talking about personal property).

But the thing is once stuff like that are enacted, there is no longer anything to be called “capitalism” any more.

When you culture is so much about cOMpEtItiOn that you forget that sports are just a made up thing for witch we get to make whatever rules we like. Gender segregation in sports isn’t that eternal either.

If you’re that worried about different abilities competing, install a tiered system like the Special Olympics.

EDIT: Interesting read: https://daily.jstor.org/gender-incommensurability-in-sports/

What if the separation of competitions, “said to be a natural consequence of the differences between men and women,” is actually is “just a tool to create those differences”?

Go tell it to your dumb ass president.

“Arbeit macht frei.”

Lol, more like “you can’t have so much more than me that I end up being forced to serve you just to survive”.

If you think that’s “jealousy”, you don’t understand what wealth is.

OP is right though: the Democrats and the Republicans are not like parties in every other democracy, i.e. expressions of specific political ideologies. They are institutional electoral machines, of an institutionally two-party state. They have their altered their ideological core before: prior to FDR the Democrats were basically just populist racists. They can easily alter their ideological core in the future as well. It just so happens that in the latest party system the Democrats have been the machine used by the American centre and centre left.

Edit: by OP I am referring to the comment I’m responding to, that is heavily downvoted.

The only reason the blue collar man in the meme can afford a suburban home, a large family and free time on one income is because of very large taxes on the rich and very high rates of unionization. If people have these and choose to be trad-idiots, fine, so long as other people can also have these things and be free to choose to not be trad-idiots.

So at this point, the leaders of both major political wings of MAGA have openly done the fascist salute.

Maga America needs to be denazified.

Bannon has diplomatic immunity? He’s just some loser.

May the bullies live to very very old age, haunted and ashamed by their crime, and always remembering with profound anguish this smiling face and these sparkling eyes that they extinguished.
