At least with Sanders, they had the excuse that he was an independent. They have no such excuse with Hogg.
But there are already rumblings that they’re willing to work with elon. There are centrist democrats in office right now that are not only willing to work with a literal nazi, but are willing to say as much to the press.
Sealion someone else.
And right here is what I’m talking about.
You think I’m gloating?
Yes.
You think .world is full of people that support what’s happening in Palestine?
I think they have a higher percentage than any other instance.
That’s pretty far from reality as I’m experiencing it.
If you don’t speak out against genocide, you don’t see how genocide supporters react to it.
In the next few months, watch how democrats treat elon musk and compare it to David Hogg’s treatment.
Pretty much everybody agrees that Biden didn’t help, allowed the weapon supply to continue.
Not on .world.
Trump is worse.
Yeah, no shit.
Kamala would have been better but not good.
She literally said she didn’t differ from biden on the issue.
I don’t think any of this is particulary controversial.
It was on .world. And now you’re pretending otherwise.
The election wasn’t really about the Democrats being better, they just suck less.
Gloat more that there is no anti-genocide party.
Here, watch. The biden administration had no business selling weapons to netanyahu when it became clear that they were being used to commit genocide.
Most of the lemmy users who spent the last year of the biden presidency shouting abuse at people who opposed genocide are on .world
If they do, .world is where the party is gonna be.
It’s certainly difficult to admit that the world has changed.
Sears’ real estate holdings didn’t save it.
You can choose either AIPAC money/war crimes OR the votes of the left-- not both.
centrists would support genocide for free, no matter how many votes they lose.

They’ve been waiting for this moment since he delivered his nazi salute.
I don’t think all of these parents are in it for the money. I’m sure some of them just want him bankrupted, no matter how long it takes.
They are in abundant company.
I had this job once that I hated. It was a hotel job at a place that had a satisfaction guarantee that basically rewarded people for feigning or in some cases manufacturing problems with their rooms. Simultaneously, corporate was obsessed with online reviews.
They rewarded people for complaints and made this central to their branding, and punished the staff for complaints from guests. And they kept rolling out new initiatives that basically boiled down to “here’s more shit to do on top of your existing work. It’s supposed to make guests feel more welcome, but really it just makes your life harder and gives karens another attack surface to complain about.”
And they were constantly remodeling so guests could gripe about that too.
Place was a masterclass in how to incentivize mistreating employees.
At one point, they must have noticed that their employees had garbage morale, so they mandated a webinar on mindfulness, to be completed during work hours while also completing existing duties. This was my introduction to the concept.
As a way for an abusive employer to pretend they care about employees.
EDIT: After some consideration, it was worse than just pretending to care. They built a framework to blame employees for low morale in an environment of constant abuse that corporate facilitated.
ITT: uncomfortable silence from people who spent a year minimizing genocide.
First time?
Thanks for the preview of what democrats’ reaction will be when people aren’t happy with the next capitulation.
Optimism would be a denial of decades of hard work by the party.
Democrats have spent decades with their thumbs on the scale against progressives.
Selectively-enforced “neutrality” is just more of the same.
