I'd be afraid to. They're pretty much begging for a devastatingly strongly-worded letter.
Pretty much. Better get their shit together. I watched them lose what should have been the easiest victories in the party's history.
Honestly, assassinating him would be pretty sick. What is it they should be doing though?
Do you know what literal children are doing at this very moment all over Europe?
Looting stores?
yes you should always believe the framing of the regime media.
But I totally do not expect anything better really.
The US is just a running gag
I’d love a general strike. Can’t do it by myself. No one else I know is ready to sacrifice everything they have to start the revolution.
sacrifice everything
Jezus christ, striking is one of the easiest and effective means.
The level of subservience and impotence is mind-boggling.
And frightning at the same time.
If I would live in a dystopian country where people had this mentality I would go crazy.
We get fired and lose healthcare if we strike, and possibly get shot by police. By design.
And none of that would give “the democrats” the means to do anything about the president.
Maybe I’ll come live in your utopian country and gripe on lemmy about people in America just trying to get through their day.
I totally agree with you on stuff but your expectations and attitude here are baffling. Come on over and start organizing if you feel it’s so easy.
A general strike in Minnesota lead to the resignations of federal prosecutors, the firing of DHS secretary Kristi Noam, and the eventual resignation of US Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino. Now, try to magine what could be accomplished with a national wide general strike. Try to imagine what could be possible if Democrats stopped condemning protests every time a window gets broken, they could use that mass movement to do whatever they wanted.
You can't just try to get through your day anymore, you have to fight back or you're going to fucking die.

You are insufferable. I hope you get what you wish on us.
You don't believe there's looting? There very often is, along with burning civilian cars etc. In the last video I saw from the UK, the "protesters" were walking along a residential street smashing random windows while the residents were hiding inside terrified
That's not the point and I never said that.
There are sometimes people joining the legitimate protests for their own (bad) reasons.
Sometimes deliberately by the government agents provocateur.
Both with the same result. Demonizing the protests.
The press will invariably only focus on that fringe group and call all of them "troublemakers"or whatever.
(As you implied by using quote marks)
The general public will dislike them and not even know about the legitimate demands of their protest.
Simple tactics that work on gullible people
Right? You cant loot stores unless you form a private equity firm with republican venture capitalists first.
Right on time to muddy voting season, very cool.
You people clearly just wish for the Blue Epstein Party to be held above criticism at all times.

Sure, buddy.
It’s not the Neeras or Third Way trying to fight both their left flank and republicans at the same time in the middle of a goddamn election. It’s not the never Trumpers or the Lincoln Project trying to shape the Democratic Party into being Neocon Lite.
It’s the Nazis successfully masquerading as leftists, the most ideologically pure wing of the party that will think nothing of calling out your shit when you say something suspect. You’re giving the Nazis far too much credit.
Nazi is when you refuse to support genocide against brown people, and the more strongly you oppose genocide against brown people the more of a Nazi you are, and if you have to dodge tear gas canisters and rubber bullets and hide your face from drones because of how much you oppose genociding brown people, you're basically Hitler.
It's the economy, stupid. The only thing voters care about is wages, rent, groceries, utilities, and gasoline. All of that has gotten worse under Trump. If he wins, it isn't because some leftists chose not to vote. It's because the election was rigged.
Democrats are the Minority in the House, Senate, the Supreme Court, minority in most state legislations as well, so outside of everything they are actually doing, such as lawsuits and hearings, what would you do? Do you understand how our government is supposed to work?
Also if you suggest civil war, well then champ step right up and be the change you want to see, it's a lot easier talking tough than actually doing tough things, there are plenty of people out there just waiting until some kind of credible resistance leadership beyond activists and politicians shows themselves.
We need to be smart, organize, unify and be ready for if the midterm elections fail legitimacy, and if we lose the midterms legitly then I guess we get what we voted for and will have to figure out how we get through it.
this video is 100% correct LOL
americans are a joke to the world.
Right now there are children in France, Germany, Belgium, Italy,etc.. rioting, swallowing taer gas for a lot less but they will take a 5 minute break to laugh at you pathetic weasels.

It is so funny when US Americans think they live in a democracy or their politics matter. Shithole country
If you feel like US politics don't matter, why are you following and engaging with a community called "United States News & Politics"?
I like watching shitty things and shitty people fail, it is atrocity tourism.
And when the Democrats were the majority, they were helping Trump build the systems that he is currently using. Maybe if they fought Trump, instead of attacking the Left, we wouldn't be here right now.
So what should they do? Disband, and let an actual Leftist party have a shot.
We need to be smart, organize, unify and be ready for if the midterm elections fail legitimacy, and if we lose the midterms legitly then I guess we get what we voted for and will have to figure out how we get through it.
The most impotent liberal sentence I have ever read in my life. How many inflatable frog costumes do you own?
well then champ
