Rainbow Cake

This is just brain dead denial of reality regardless of one's views on the conflict When Nasrallah literally says he wishes all Jews were in Israel so they are easier to kill it isn't because he is truly upset Israel is occupying territory in Syria People need to stop turning their brains off

Unauthorized immigrants with no criminal record should get a path to citizenship What is wrong with that idea and how the fuck is it a Republican one?

This is a complete and utter lie. As just one example Biden spent tons of effort trying to reunite families separated by Trump. A Trump era program Just proving that this person doesn't give a shit about that.

“McConnell did more effective obstruction when he was majority leader than Schumer is doing as minority leader” is a very common response to this and like yes, he did

People who can do a lot of message spreading dont then bash dems for not getting their message out

The only thing that sucks more than AIPAC is the continued invocation of AIPAC by leftist politicians as a stand-in for antisemitic conspiracy theories. They could just attack large PACs and outside spending. That is a tried and true campaign tactic. They know why they’re not doing that.

“Schumer has overseen more party-line votes on executive and judicial nominees than any minority leader in history” is just true! You can make the case for “he is a failure because he has only done that for 90% of nominees rather than 100%” but you actually need to make the case

Sometimes I feel like a man in some lost Twilight Zone episode, running around shouting “DON’T YOU SEE? DON’T YOU FOOLS SEE? YOU WERE HERE BEFORE! YOU LIVED THIS ALL BEFORE! ONLY MONTHS AGO! CAN’T YOU REMEMBER??” in a mid-century accent, while they look at me with uncomprehending faces

Oh FFS, ten years later and the NYT is still publishing Wikileaks (ergo Russian) propaganda The DNC worked so hard to undermine Bernie’s candidacy that Bernie won the vast majority of caucuses—which were run by the party—but Clinton dominated the primaries…which were run by states, not the party

Yeah, I don’t dislike her either. But I’m so tired of the pathway to internet clout being to shit on Democrats. It’s been a decade of this, and things have gotten progressively worse. People should have just been positive about Hillary Clinton. It wasn’t that hard!

A reminder that many people complain that Dems don’t use the bully pulpit enough. It’s an uneven playing field. The sooner you realize this, the sooner you’ll fight the right bad guy.

I genuinely don't understand how you could be all this "NYT opinion writer, Slate Money co-host, Dem messaging consultant," And still not even bother to read a single sentence of the Democratic platform Like genuinely asking, are you terrified of doing so?

Funny how it always devolves into this Blatantly lying about the very clear detailed PROGRESSIVE policy platform Dems put out or Harris put out while Trump gets a total pass for either incoherently rambling about tariffs or immigrants eating pets Dem electorate LOVED Harris why do you ignore that

I think it is patently delusional to claim that the electorate that gave Republicans a trifecta and elected a President that literally had no policy whatsoever, did so because they thought Democrats were too "centrist" and not left enough Actual looney tunes level of belief

You can't even credit when Democrats do try so why lie you actually give a shit?

Did the YEARS long process over Build Back Better, which passed an entire chamber of Congress btw, build support for anything in that bill?

There is not a single battery factory opening that Biden didn't personally attend The fact is no one cared because the mainstream media didn't care and the left media sphere didn't want to credit Biden with anything People pretending otherwise are the part of the problem

Not great that there's a cadre of leftists who think making centrists vote for rapists with Nazi tattoos, people who are against interracial marriage, or who are ambivalent at best about firebombing Holocaust survivors are equivalent moral injuries to having to vote for Hillary Clinton.

I expect the LEFT who claims to want good things to at least credit politicians when they try like they are constantly doing with Mamdani, and spread that narrative every time they speak I also expect the LEFT to actually credit Biden when he passed the largest climate bill in history

Just total fucking horseshit Yes that is the exact arguments Democrats made specifically on a Senate majority for Roe after Dobbs ACO explicitly said "Biden needs to name how many Senators he needs to codify Roe" Biden did exactly that and good to see it account for jack fucking shit

100%. Our Big Tent constantly delegitimizes its own mission through erasure of the work that gets done. Why would the lightly engaged then think our mission is anything other than made, since nothing was ever actually done in all these years? And they won't vote for nothing happening

Exactly. The fact that many on the left treat the Dem "status quo" as basically nothing, and not a FTC led by Lina Khan for example, actually enables Republicans because it minimizes the harm Republicans do in power, because its all "status quo anyways"

And its not just the big stuff. If people on the left keep repeating a narrative that e.g. the EPA under a Dem admin is "fuck all" then don't be surprised voters don't give a shit about the EPA being gutted! We actually have a lot of good laws! Dems simply enforce them while Republicans break them

Or jobs at all

Do you believe in anything other than attacking Democrats?

Ah yes the party with Lina Khan at the FTC and passing hundreds of billions in new taxes on wealthy and corporations is full of "corporate ghouls" You are just full of fucking shit and will have another melt down when you lose another primary.

ALL the left does is blame some "Democratic establishment" and "AIPAC" for everything rather than the real obstacles in passing laws and winning elections

She didn't deserve to lose her primary that is the enire point Oh and she stood up for trans kids right to Trump's face I guess that doesn't count when treating Republicans as the enemy though!

No you aren't You are just on bluesky attacking Democrats which does the exact opposite You will never actually treat Republicans as the enemy you constantly treat Democrats as

I want these people out of my fucking party and I'm tired of tiptoeing around it to avoid offending people who secretly agree that the problem with Democrats is all the black people.

I agree it is a problem for Dem leadership in both chambers to be so heavily focused in New York not just because there are benefits to have them elsewhere but because it also leads to stupid convos where the left thinks they can take over the Dem party with two primaries in their strongest location

It's so dumb because an honest conversation on Schumer can be had but this is just seething contempt for Democrats and zero effort towards actually beating Republicans Schumer is probably going to retire and its going to be a free for all. Funny how they need Schumer to run again for their plan

Politics is kinda wild because it's the only sport where people don't know any of the rules but insist the coaches and managers are feckless idiots who are letting the other side win.

While we’re here can we talk about how these guys from the “Fight Agency” dressed him up as the no-holds-barred anti-GOP candidate and then every rally he had was “actually you know Republicans are amenable to all this too, you just have to be nice and unify with them” like the alleged “centrists”

What the fuck is wrong with the Onion? Hey idiots, we’ll leave aside for the moment the fact that it seems like YOU don’t take rape seriously. The Democratic Party clearly does, and not just in this instance, and to suggest they don’t is just lying about them because that’s what you do now.

People who liked Platner try to claim that what they want is candidates who are as angry about Trump as they are, and the fact that they could not tell that Platner was not that at all says no good things about, at best, their judgment.

I guarantee you Platner will say anti-trans shit on FOX within a month

Good to see that Platner's campaign died as it lived: without a single ounce of grace or dignity from the candidate or his staffers. What an absolute disgrace.

In any sane universe Janet Mills would be made nominee in Maine simply because she was the closest runner up in the primary, has a proven track record, and isn't a fucking piece of shit, and you all know it.

It's so obvious that they are trying to prevent a scenario where Mills actually wins because the deserved smugness would be through the stratosphere Tell me again how its about winning the Senate?

It's not a lie. By the rally organizers own words and actions it was objectively a pro Hamas Oct 7th celebration rally. She attended it. So did many in the NY DSA Own up to it That many on the left continue to deny this is absolutely despicable
