objectively the moderate wing of fascism btw
it makes me think of how the confederate leadership were pardoned by Andrew Johnson after half a million conscripts died. You can shed endless scalding tears for the scratch on the god emperor’s ear, enough to fill a river, and it still won’t buy you one bit of sympathy from the hogs. They will want to flay you alive when they get power. So who’s this for? The press?
Violent rhetoric from AOC? She’s the most milquetoast bootlicker.
Socdems: “Americans (documented citizens) that work 40 hours a week (means testing ahoy) should be able to afford (the market hooray) housing (not houses to own)!”
Conservatives: “This is Totalitarian Communism straight from Red China and Iran!”
If there’s no place for political violence, then why are people killed by the state everyday? What about all the people murdered due to poverty and lack of health care?
Mark Twain two reigns of terror quote.
This is base self preservation. “Please do not take a revenge shot at me because you might not miss”.
There are actually dipshit centrists who support this kind of thing who tend to be relatively wealthy, retired, and white. Not enough to swing an election, but who else are the dems supposed to appeal to, the huge portion of the country that doesn’t vote at all? I think not.
They are appealing to their base, civility libs. It is the same as a republican yelling about woke DEI or whatever.
