they did do something, they waited until the Zionists started getting bored of assaulting protesters and took over for them

Like I just want to make sure I've got this straight. That's the current liberal response to "voting for Biden got us the exact thing Trump would do," right? I feel like that can't be right because I don't understand how a human brain can contain those thoughts at the same time

lol the DNC is going to be a poo poo show

they have a built-in excuse to make it virtual-only a few weeks earlier, in order to make biden eligible for the OH ballot & save sherrod brown's rear end.

but that'd leave all their corporate sponsors & the city of chicago left holding the bag, which would be considerable.

besides, the convention is an opportunity to show their law-n-order bona fides by cracking heads.

Imagine a liberal government being unable to effectively govern due to an abject refusal to address material conditions. When a dissatisfied electorate punish them for this refusal/incompetence, and the liberals are forced to either ally with the fascists or the communists to govern, imagine which they choose. Crazy scenario, I know.

But seriously, the SDP kept trying to ram through austerity in 1930/31 which is what kept getting blocked in the Reichstag and forced through by executive action (because everyone who wasn't the SDP hated it). As for Hindenburg's thoughts on Hitler, he wasn't offended by Hitler's antisemitism or hate mongering. He despised Hitler for being a lowly corporal in the army vs Hindenburg's generalship and for not respecting Hindenburg's leadership of the German right/nationalists.

Read this paragraph from Hindenburg's wiki page for a distillation:

This was a month before the Nazi's won their 37% of the Reichstag.
I've seen a remarkable number of randos on Twitter trying to restart the argument about how the KPD are to blame for the Nazis because they wouldn't side with the SPD. Centrist liberalism is contingent on being completely loving ignorant of anything that hasn't been on MSNBC in the past 2 weeks; who's doing this?

I can't wait for them to cart Biden out so he can drop one of those "This is not who we are. No. Now is a time for unity" speeches while students across the country are getting their brains scrambled for the crime of not toeing the party line

the article addresses this point:

quote:

In a recent social-media post, Trump demanded, “STOP THE PROTESTS NOW!!!” If they are still going on during a prospective second Trump term, he will probably stop them with maximal violence. In the meantime, he fervently wishes them to continue through November.

the main argument being made is that protesting biden's gaza policy is hurting biden and helping trump electorally, which is true

caring about winning is bad actually and only despots and fascists care so biden being completely uninfluenced by the people he's courting is actually how democracy works


Amazing.

Democracy is when the people have no say in any government decisions whatsoever, but you get to check a box every four years but only the box they tell you .

Elections on Fahrenheit 451 were more genuine, you still had no say, but from what I remember at least no one bothered you about it if you didn't vote for President Noble
