Give me a fucking break. These people have bombed hundreds of abortion clinics, burnt down mail ballot boxes, and mass murdered people at grocery stores (Buffalo), gay night clubs (Pulse), churches (Charleston) and local newspaper offices (Annapolis) for years. They stormed Congress and killed cops. Multiple Democratic offices were shot up during the 2024 campaign season.

Right wing violence is so normalized in the US that they've managed to brainwash you into thinking this is some kind of escalation, when it doesn't even come close to the level of widespread violence of the right. Stop letting them get away with it.

They already did that. Trumpers were literally burning down mail ballot boxes and shooting up power stations before the election.

We're only getting started. I'm getting tired of people from other countries demanding that I go out on the street and die. Not least because it's a fucking idiotic knee-jerk strategy that would fail instantly.

We need to build movements and communities, not go on suicide runs against the most heavily armed government on the planet. People don't just get up and revolt, they still haven't revolted in Hungary and Orban has been there for 20 years, Vucic has been in Serbia for 8. But somehow there's an expectation that we need speedrun a revolution in two months because Trump supporting scum constantly blab about the 2A, as if they were ever on the side of democracy.

I get the frustration because too many people still don't give a shit. But in the US successful civil resistance has been much more about sustained direct action at the local level like sit-ins, boycotts, freedom rides, civil disobedience, etc. Marches are only one part of that. Most people who bring up the civil rights movement don't know what the fuck they're talking about.

Moonlight blows steam out of the water. I can't even tell I'm streaming when I use it.

The CDU is no where near as bad as the Republicans

If Einstein did this he would've died in the Holocaust.

Lol. It's always the biggest keyboard warrior shit talkers who effect everyone else to do the fighting for them.

Go get arrested yourself instead of talking about it, you fucking cunt.

You're only hearing about her because she has media connections in the first place.

As far as I'm aware, Biden controlled most of the campaign money at least initially. either way it's still a pretty weak excuse for Harris.

Biden really fucked us in so many ways though, I'm happy to blame him for losing the election as well. I mean he was the one who thought gaslighting us about the economy was a winning move, he put Harris in a terrible position to begin with. Not to mention deciding to run again in the first place, appointing a Trump collaborator as AF, refusing to exercise his power, etc etc

That GOP number is right around Trump's floor, interestingly enough. The GOP is a cult and Dems are angry at their politicians, so this doesn't surprise me.
