This take on things is also very American.

Yeah because it’s still socially acceptable to control women with violence for most of those 4 billion guys.

You think nine months before an election is enough time to change a massive establishment like the DNC? Presidential campaigns take years of planning before candidates even announce their running.

You think a small percentage of voters in a few states whose only message is “Don’t vote for Biden” is the kind of action we need to “change the game”? If this is the kind of action lemmy progressives expect to take and make meaningful strides towards progress it’s absolutely no surprise nothing actually gets done. Maybe do something useful besides spreading fasicts voter suppression talking points and maybe start now instead of February 2028.

Unfortunately progressives are a very small percentage of the electorate and have proven time and time again they aren’t going to show up to vote. In fact progressives so rarely show up that they’ve effectively removed themselves as members of the electorate.

Still a 1000 times more than you’re doing.

“95.5% of people who are forced to say they like their government say they like their government”

You should be more skeptical, anything that claims to have a 95% approval rating is probably not telling the truth.

Lol what a weak manifesto.

If you’re an eligible voter and didn’t vote for Harris you looked at Trump style facism and decided you were okay with it. Don’t blame other people for your choices.

lol 🤡

Democratic flavored genocide wasn’t enough for the Lemmy progressives so they aggressively campaigned for Trump to really ramp things up.

He won with less than 30% of the populations vote because most Americans decided facism wasn’t that bad so they stayed home. People who didn’t vote for Harris or encouraged others not to vote for Harris looked at what Trump was selling and decided they’d like to buy.

What percentage of the American population are progressive? Please provide a reliable source for your information. And please don’t provide something nebulous and without meaning like “75% of Americans support random progressive policy”. Those polls show aggrement with a policy, not a desire to change current policy.

You Lemmy progressives need to be honest with yourselves. If “not a fascist” wasn’t enough to make you vote for Harris there isn’t a candidate in the universe that would have passed your purity test. It’s almost like you actually wanted Trump to win.

I like tankie triplets. Triad feels like it gives them more importance than they deserve.

What does that mean? The husband gets to eat dinner before the boyfriend?

A caucus is a group of representatives, i.e. the other Democratic senators. I think you’re thinking of constituents.

Pure fucking market manipulation.

At this point I kind of hope China goes nuclear and implements a complete import and export ban with the United States. China has the social infrastructure inplace and debt head room to borrow their way out of any kind of financial crisis. The United States does not.

If you count humans as animals then cocaine and clothing from companies like Temu and Shein aren’t vegan.

Cocaine manufacturing and distribution is full of human exploitation and suffering. Using it should go against the vegan ethos of avoiding consumption of things that are the product of exploitation. Similar to honey, milk, or eggs.

Similarly, Shien and Temu make nearly all of their products using slave labor in terrible working conditions using dangerous chemicals without any precautions.

You don’t understand how the filibuster works. Please educate yourself rather than spreading red maga misinformation to further your clear pro-Trump agenda.
