“I’ve spent much of my adult life watching politicians like Bill Clinton and, at times, Barack Obama sell out their own side to placate the other, with dismal results”
“dae wonder why the democrats are such pussies?”
It’s because half the population are armed and militant. Their political representatives have to live among them and don’t want to get shot. Cancel culture in red states is not just online, it’s every aspect of IRL.
The democrats understand this. Their constituency are milder and unarmed so they get the shitty end of the stick.
They’re not even doing the minimum to satisfy their voters, to play their role. Obama came out and said he’s a conservative last week ffs.
It’s out of fear of upsetting the radicalised, armed half of the population. Fear of conflict and of chaos. They understand that fomenting chaos is in the interest of the republicans (it’s also in the interest of the US globally), to further militarise the state apparatus, cement the status quo and prevent what we would probably agree is progress.
“Are radlibs-”
No.
