The democrats know all these things and don’t care. they’re just as much in service to the billionaires as the republicans.
Liberals don’t care. Socialists / progressives do care. Bernie and AOC have consistently fought to expand class consciousness and to fight against the growing wealth disparity
I’ll give Bernie a pass although he’s a milquetoast ineffectual social democrat. AOC is a fraud.
You know, I see people like you saying this stuff and I guess I don’t understand it. WHO are you advocating for to do the thing(s) you want? I would like specific names you would put forward.
I’m not politically educated enough to know who these others are that someone like you would recommend, but I do see a lot of complaining and not enough solutions being presented so that someone like me could learn about them.
People can complain without giving a solution. Just because they don’t know what the way to solve it is, doesn’t mean they have no right to air their grievances
Unless of course, you also want to control their free speech and dissent from the party is seen as abhorrent for you
Doesn’t matter now. He’s rapidly destroying the regulatory infrastructure and sending his brown shirts out to sow fear and confusion. He is a fascist, the rest of the Republican party are his enablers, and things are going to get super mega shitty before they get better.
If they get better.
He is a fascist, the rest of the Republican party are his enablers
The rest of the Republican party are his sycophants and subordinates. It’s the “moderate” Democrats who are his enablers, through inaction.
The Republicans have the majority in both the House and Senate. To do something, you need power first.
Imagine winning an election and twiddling your fingers for 4 years straight

It’s literally the playbook from Bush’s “Shock and Awe” campaign turned on US citizens (minus the indiscriminate bombing). It amounts to the same thing, though. It’s a blitz, do so much so fast it sets everybody off balance and puts them in a state of shock.
Shock and awe (technically known as rapid dominance) is a military strategy based on the use of overwhelming power and spectacular displays of force to paralyze the enemy’s perception of the battlefield and destroy their will to fight.
Project 2025 wants to shock people into obedience. The flurry of Executive Orders are part of this shock treatment, as are the deportations, and roadblocks suddenly thrown up in front of government agencies. They intend to shock us and cripple our ability to respond via governance.
EDIT: Turns out, Klein agrees.
Trump is a rolling shock machine, which a recipe for keeping us scattered and reactive to the latest shocking news. There will be moments when we need to react forcefully and meaningfully to protect one another.
His shock and awe may shock his violence prone brown headed Magas into pulling another 2nd amendment solution on him or his helpers - this time more successfully.
Brown headed?
Really now.
