In three weeks, Donald Trump has imploded whatever positive image the United States might have had internationally.

    good old lefty progressivism reduced to: “look at what trump is doing!”

    if you’re truly progressive or left, you have as much ire for the democratic party-- if not more.

      You’re getting downvoted by the same people who got upset by calling out that Kamala and Biden were not good candidates.

      If they were, they would have beat this idiot.

      The DNC has no idea, nor does it care, what people really need or want. They don’t represent our reality. The only Dems who do are… You guessed it: Progressive.

      AOC, Bernie, Ro Khana, Cori Bush, Nina Turner… None of them are supported by the establishment wing of the Democratic Party. All of them have people in mind over reelection.

      It’s time for a sea change.

        I think Kamala was an embarrassment that deserved to be called out, Biden is evil, and the establishment often cares more about suppressing progressives than beating Republicans, but I absolutely downvoted that dumb as shit comment.

        The Democrats can be responsible for failing to defeat fascism, complicit in genocide and the backsliding of civil rights, and a problem in need of active and forceful change without saying stupid things like they’re just as bad as the guy empowering Nazis, destroying the civil service, and persecuting trans people with deadly results.

        That’s fucking stupid online edgelord politics.
