1999. What appeared to be a harmless meteorite crashing in the Nevada desert has turned out to be Darc Seed, an evil alien creature with horrible powers. By shooting strange magnetic rays, Darc Seed had turned the helpless nation into zombies and had brought the Statue of Liberty to life to do his dirty work. These rays had also given him control over many deadly weapons, but none were more powerful than the legendary samurai sword, Shura. When the great head of the samurai, Namakubi, heard that the sword had fallen into evil hands, he set off immediately for the United States. For only he possessed the strength and knowledge needed to recapture the magical sword and free the U.S. from the evil clutches of Darc Seed.

Yall hosed. Yall hosed up. Yall hosed and yall hosed up. Condolences.

Though to be fair to the people i'm quoting, there are a lot of loving idiots on the left here in France, including Mélenchon who says in his analysis of Corbyn's defeat that he won't bend the knee to "the CRIF (a French organisation representing Jewish people) communautaristes"

(communautaristE is the word for "idpol" in France, usually used by right wingers to demonize Muslims, but sometimes used against Jews, LGBT folks, feminists, basicially anyone that doesn't fit the French perfect model (old white straight males)

But that's a French issue, laying it on Corbyn's doors is really loving stupid. It makes sadder that Melenchon is still a loving idiot and Corbyn was so much better than him.

Melenchon was harder left and more popular but is a euroskeptic which meant Hamon felt he needed to stay in which then was the only reason the left lost to Le Pen in the 1st round, and maybe the only reason they lost to Macron... Melenchon didn't ever endorse Macron while Hamon did

I think if the us left really can take anything away from this it’s that HAVING A BETTER PLATFORM IS NOT ENOUGH. you cannot simply run on “I will be better for your community” and expect to win, that doesn’t work, people do not rationally evaluate party platforms and do not trust politicians, even good ones. you have to do the work on both ends, shaping the party to be better for the people and building class consciousness among the people so they seek out the better party.

like this meme:

is funny and good but it’s funny because we all know that guy wouldn’t talk like that. but we need him to! thats how we win! so the goal needs to be to create that guy! it’s been done before!

He says he'll step down before the next election, which may be good if they can suddenly find another leftist to be leader.

If not, welp.

It's fewer years for the labour party to find a way to shed the blight he's been on it.

Look at what has happened since he became leader of the labour party.

People seem to forget that his original leadership failure was failing to convince people to vote remain. He presided over the brexit referendum disaster along with cameron.
