We need nationwide Ranked Choice Voting because I agree that many Democrats are far from perfect and, in an ideal world, I would love to vote for a third party or independent candidate, the reality is that; unless you happen to live in a state with Ranked Choice Voting (Maine, for example) you might indirectly be helping a Republican win. As imperfect as many Democrats are, they are usually far better and usually more sane than the Republicans.

Flippant Anarchism. A lighter take on social criticism with the aim of agitation.
Post humorous takes on capitalism and the states which prop it up. Memes, shitposting, screenshots of humorous good takes, discussions making fun of some reactionary online, it all works.
This community is anarchist-flavored. Reactionary takes won't be tolerated.
Don't take yourselves too seriously. Serious posts go to !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Absolutely no right-wing jokes. This includes "Anarcho"-Capitalist concepts.
-
Absolutely no redfash jokes. This includes anything that props up the capitalist ruling classes pretending to be communists.
-
No bigotry whatsoever. See instance rules.

This is an anarchist comm. You don't have to be an anarchist to post, but you should at least understand what anarchism actually is. We're not here to educate you.

No shaming people for being anti-electoralism. This should be obvious from the above point but apparently we need to make it obvious to the turbolibs who can't control themselves. You have the rest of lemmy to moralize.

Democrats should have promised to tax the rich and use that money to build a new Third Reich to appease both sides π

The left wants to squeeze the rich until money comes out. Centrist republicans don't.
That's why those controlling the Democratic party will not save us. The left needs to take it from them.
The pneumatic press is this century's guillotine.

Democrats have been moving to the right with their program like someone paid them to chase republicans on that stage
They're gonna run a Schumer/Clinton ticket in 2028.
Nah it'll be Newsom because they think his online ~~precense~~ spamming will draw in young voters

PugJesus in a nutshell
Crazy how Lemmy is still small enough to have famous/infamous commenters. I wonder if I have a rep? I feel like I comment a lot but probably nothing compared to them
It helps a lot to have a memorable username, mfed1122.
Well now I'm gonna remember you π§

Fascism it is I guess. I wish things could be different, but the liberals didn't want to compromise. Oh well.
Well no. Compromising with the left risks communism. Letting the right get everything they want; that's just fine.

Itβs accurate for sure.
Democrats made a failed attempt to acquire a potentially valuable resource to their cause, Americans who vote consistently.
People who donβt vote or donate to their party are literally worthless in their eyes.
I vote consistently because I don't want fascism running the government. They take consistent voters for granted. They should court the disenfranchised with progressive policies but that runs counter to their donor handlers' goals so they pander to the right more and more instead.

I wish the Democrats had the balls to use that messaging. Instead, it's us leftists trying to convince the radical centrists like Cassandra of Troy.
