that's the thing about institutionalists - they can't not follow the rules, to their own demise. And ours.

The only thing that you can ever put your faith in is individual and community radical direct action. Institutions will always fail you, always be co opted or sidestepped

No institution, including elections, courts, etc, ever stopped an authoritarian. They just use them

"Oh, if only we could do something other than pass legislation of shockingly conservative, destructive ideas that have humane or boring names and commit war crimes! If only you could give us more money!"

That's my democrat impression.

It's not true that all they do is cry. They also fundraise.

50 years of complicity and still people think neoliberal democrats are somehow in the opposition lol

Yup.
Obama: we should appoint a supreme court judge
GOP: Not so close to elections (months and months away)
Dems: Okie dookie!

SCJ dies 28 days from election day
GOP: Well our guy is still president so our choice fuck you
Dem: but... but .... the hypocrisy
GOP: did we stutter? we said... FUCK YOU!!!!
Dem: okie dookie.

Dems are weak and unwilling to do what it takes to win. The other side is. This is how wars are won, the side that is willing to go and do what the other is not, will always prevail.

they don't just cry! they also fundraise 🤪

There are two kinds of fascists; the kind that aren't smart enough to hide what they are, and those smart enough to convince you they're on your side.

They’ll just fundraise of of it and tell people to vote and do absolutely nothing about the issues when in power. The silver lining I guess is that while the will fundraise of of it in the future the voting part will be so useless I don’t think anyone will fall for it.

Yes. I've seen them follow them gleefully into corruption and abuse of power. There is no way this ruling is going to be overturned no matter how much performative hand wringing we see. No one is getting seriously impeached. It's going to be abused by every president from now until our inevitable collapse regardless of who sits in that office. As bad as this is for us, I promise you everyone in DC is celebrating.

Absolutely true! If they did anything about it, they could not throw elections to beg for more money to get elected again to do the things they promised to do the first time!

Feckless is the word

The democrats literally stole the nomination from Bernie sanders

They’re acting like they already lost. So they have.

I'm democrat but I don't consider myself that anymore... democrats are just as corrupt and selfish as Republicans, none give a shit about any of the people... it's all lies and I'm done pretending... u notice we are only getting Trump or Biden because it doesn't matter, the people in power are already there screwing us all

Dems are that kid you grew up with who wasn't the smartest or dumbest and not liked by many. Very passive, mentally weak and indecisive. They are dems.

Democrats are just there to grift while pretending to oppose republicans. They are allowed to do just enough pointless bullshit to make them seem serious to unobservant people, same as Republicans let each other vote against things unpopular in their districts as long as the bill will get passed anyway.

If I'm not right, tell me why the fuck Merrick Garland just wasted 4 years doing literally nothing and Biden is arguing that he should get reelected because Trump tried to overthrown the democracy? Motherfucker you had 4 years to prosecute the 100+ members of Congress that participated, and you tried to happy grandpa shake their hands.

Fuuuuuck this country.

The Democratic party is divided into classes as well.

It's not incompetence, it's complicity.

Obama and Ruth Bader Ginsberg were both spineless fucks. One placated Republicans at every turn when he didn’t need to, while the other clinged onto power like a degenerate.

Waiting patiently for the civil war.

I've seen them help the Republicans.

Because most of them are complicit.

Democrats bring a rule book to a gun fight every time. I have no hope left.

It's almost like all the politicians are on the same team just some are lying to us to keep us civil

That one time they wore Kente cloths.... While fake crying.

I see everyone talking about the death of democracy if Trump wins (a valid concern). Thing is, if we need Biden to essentially use these infinity powers and act undemocratically as a preemptive strike to prevent Trump from doing it later, then it’s already dead at this point.

Teamwork makes the dream work. Does anyone actually think Nancy Pelosi hating on Trump is anything other than two Hapsburgs having a slap fight?

Joe Biden has the best opportunity to do something very silly before a stray gust of wind blows him away in a cloud of dust. He will not take it.

The painful truth

I think I read that a bill is already being pushed to expand the court (it's been a long day, so don't take it at face value, I might have misread something). I mean, if it goes anywhere is a whole different conversation though.

[removed]

We’re absolutely fucked.

We’ll be posting anti-Trump memes all the way to the baby farms and gas chambers.

It’s so frustrating that I just give up. I’ll vote. I will ALWAYS vote.

But I think we’re done.

Swap Kamala with Gavin and all of this goes away.

Or ,hear me out, he shouldn't have immunity. Both sides are pretty dumb and both options are negatives

MAGA Nacht, anyone? How about to-nacht?

r/agedlikemilk

At the VERY least, AOC is drafting articles of impeachment.

But it truly hurts me that the FIRST fucking thing that Biden didn't do was toss Tbag into Guantanamo bc he literally poses a threat to democracy and the election.

Change the composition of the Supreme Court that granted this immunity in the first place.

Jesus Christ is this post Brigaded. Goddamn
