    I think we’ll find that it’s due to her thievery of millions of dollars from Minnesota’s welfare program. People are already serving hard time in federal prison. We know for a fact that her staffers are knee deep in fraud.

    Which is, in itself, sickening, don’t you agree? She’s stealing from the very people who need her help the most.

    If the judge signed a search warrant over her immigration paperwork, I will stand corrected. We’ll know soon enough.

      The USA has much different motivations than Hitler.

      The USA (by this I mean those who control our government financially, Trump is a goon) doesn’t want to wipe out it’s own population. There’s no desire for “breathing room”, there’s a massive amount of comparatively empty land.

      You’re expendable, but unless you make things expensive for someone, the USA is fine with you being a consumer and drone. You are still generating wealth for the system, and there’s no reason to spend the money to load you into a train. You generate more wealth than you consume.

      They don’t care enough to bother killing you, you’re not a threat to them. (by “you” I mean the average American voter). Democrats or Republicans are consumers only, they’re not capable of changing the political system in any way.

      It’s a massive “political playpen” without an option to threaten Amazon.

      If you’re right, they’ll immediately start loading thousands of people like you and me into trains after they “seize power”. If I’m right, the Democrats will “win” a narrow majority and immediately call a recess. WOW THAT WAS CLOSE OKAY RECESS

          Yeah but those are, weirdly, small fry in this game. Those sorts of groups aren’t heads of insurance pools or think tanks, those are just pondscum clubs in neighborhoods. They do have hands in things, but I feel like they’re small hands that are easy to manipulate. Kkk and the like, specifically. As prevalent as they are, racists are super low brow losers, cranky about being in small shitty ponds.

      The executions have already began with Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Good may have been a knee jerk reaction incident. Nothing is convincing me that Pretti wasn’t executed on orders. The 5150 protests were heating up. A unit of the gestapo was sent out specifically to put a bullet in someone’s head. The killers were immediately disappeared. The whole thing was orchestrated.

            This is why there are borders. Now, obviously an idea doesn’t stop at a border nor does being human? but it’s the line in the (proverbial) sand where doing something invasive can really pinch.

              No, that’s why there are militaries and civil preparedness, neither of which we are particularly strong on at present.

    Isn’t this the entire conservative project?

    Meanwhile, the more-leftist-than-thou will yell at people that point out that the gEnOcIdEjOe psyop was rather foolish to fall for. Again, many Democrats can be reached on matters of policy. Maybe not all. And there is no perfect politician, that’s just not a thing in the real world.

    Meanwhile, the conservatives are seeking ways to come for you. Imprison you. Remove you from the country. Possibly murder you.

      I’m so severely sick of dealing with the class of people who lost the election for Democrats in 2024 by refusing to address the fact what the administration had aided and abbetted the whole cloth slaughter of a people and then claim resistance to that was a psyop or conspiracy.

      You lost us that election doing so. Please stop.

        Literally no leftists were denying or avoiding Biden/Kamala’s support of the genocide.

        We were telling you people that Trump would hyper-esculate the genocide, and start new ones while also destroying global peace. And he did.

        Its not our fault you and every other drooling dipshit refused to actually bother to look at the situation objectively and from a perspective of “which option of the LITERALLY ONLY 2 VIABLE OPTIONS leads to less deaths”?

        Maybe this November you and the rest of the dipshits will rub to braincells together and actually vote for the only option that kills less people, and hosts any political movement against killing people in general.

          Democrats sure as fuck were. And plenty of “liberals” here. We’ve got all the receipts.

          We were telling you people that Trump would hyper-esculate the genocide, and start new ones while also destroying global peace. And he did.

          You needed to run an anti-genocide candidate to stop him. You sabotaged that.

          For like, the 400th time…

          the dipshits

          YOUR THE FUCKING DIPSHIT HERE!!!

          You can’t run a pro-genocide in the anti-genocide lane and expect to win. You lose the fucking election.

          THE ONLY FUCKING OPTION IS TO MOVE THE CANDIDATE TO BEING ANTI-GENOCIDE!!

          Thats it. Period. Fin. Finito. Finale. Pau.

          You side offers no credible mechansism for how to move an electorate. The only other option is to move the candidate.

          The fucking idiots here are the ones who expected American voters to behave differently than they do. You don’t get a choice in how voters behave. You can only adapt to it. You, YOU IN PARTICULAR, refuse to live in a world where the strategy maps to how real actual fucking voters behave.

          Your fucking strategy is FUCKING WORTHLESS and just hands power to fascists. THats it. And Democrats did exactly what you wanted them to. And they handed the fucking power to fascists. So since you wont fucking pull your head out of your ass and live in an evidence based reality, I can only assume, you too also want to hand power to fascists.

          Thankfully you peices of shit have completely lost control of the base and the party, and people who think like you are being ignore at scale, since all you are capable of is handing power to fascists.

        I am really deeply convinced most of the people who make comments like that online are right wing trolls, because there’s pretty much no better advertisement for the Republican party at this point than pretending like there’s a sizable group of people who actually liked the Biden administration. Like even if you are a Joe Biden superfan, you’ve gotta understand he got rejected in 2024 and there’s zero point now in trying to rehabilitate his brand. Telling everyone how great Newsome is I would understand (though obviously disagree with), but simping for Biden at this point? Doesn’t make any sense unless you’re trying to piss off progressive voters.

        Or, you know, not voting against the guy who told us he was going to be a dictator who wants to nuke Gaza and turn it into a resort was a stupid choice.

        Neither viable option promised good things for Gaza, but one promised bad things. The fact that people can’t understand that is why we’re in this mess.

        At least there was a chance that Harris was bullshitting to get funding for a last minute campaign against a guy baked by multiple billionaires. She was the one in the Biden administration pushing for the investigation required to stop arming Israel.

        Trump just wants to cause pain because he gets off on it.

          That’s fine. But if that how you approach an election you hand governence to the fascists. You can have the attitude that it’s acceptable to take the lessor of two evils: But if you run a campaign or election in that manner, you lose the election.

          It’s not an acceptable or viable strategy which Democrats can use to win. They lose when they engage with your sentiment. It’s remarkablely clear that voters don’t respond to voting for the lessor evil. You can be mad about h that or angry with voters, but you can’t keep living in denial of it as a stated fact.

          Campaigns have to conform to voters for them to be successful. Politicians need to reach and meet voters where they are at and engage their policies and positions to conform to what voters want, or they lose elections.

          We’re not in the mess because of how voters behave. We’ve always known that the approach you outline loses elections. You should really grapple with the sentiment you are expressing here because the cognitive dissonance is within in this case.

          In 2024 you had two Democratic candidates for president both refuse to go to where their voters were in terms of policy. And it lost an election. And your frustration is then repreojected onto voters. You’ve got it backwards. All of your frustration should be with the candidates who stepped away from where the votes they need to get elected were. And everyone with eyes saw this happening in 2024. Outside of party loyalists, no one was fooled by either Biden or Kamalas campaign or why it was happening.

          The problem is that major Democratic campaigns refuse to acknowledge this and instead insist the voters conform to the corporate and AIPAC donors want. And what that class of donors wants from candidates loses elections.

            It’s how you have to approach an election in this country. The time to push is during the primaries, but after that you have to pick the least bad option, or you get stuff like a second ongoing genocide.

            Two genocides is worse than one.

              NO. Fucking stop. Stop losing elections on our behalf by promoting a evidentiarilly demonstrated-to-be a failure strategy.

              That’s not how fucking elections work. Democrats lose elections when they do what you are advocating for. Please fucking stop. We can’t afford to continue to lose because you insist on both being wrong, and having your way.

                They lose elections because people are too stupid to realize that change starts locally, starts with the primaries. It’s always taken attention and work, but most people just show up on Election Day and bitch about their choices.

                What is the alternative during the actual election? You need to get the fucking party that still contains some sane people in it in power, then you work your ass off to get rid of the shitty corporate ones. A general election is not the place for activism, it’s where you do damage control.

                  What is the alternative during the actual election?

                  This is the wrong question to be asking because, as I seem to continuously have to repeat, this isn’t how voters operate and not how elections work. Its not how people operate. And in an election, you don’t get to decide how people work. People work however they work. You have no other choice than to adapt to that if your goal is winning an election.

                  There is a rot in the brain of liberals, which emerged as an extension of a suite of propaganda around “strategic voting”. If pushed I could dig up the original clip which was making the rounds almost a decade ago. And the problem with this brain worm, is that it fundamentally misunderstands how voting functions, how voters function, how elections work, and more critically, it does a standard kind of slight of hand that we’ve seen so many times, where it displaces responsibility from systems and people in power, onto individuals within that system. And you, in your response, are victim to that slight of hand.

                  Its what the oil industry did when they put the onus for climate change onto individuals (recycling, reducing use, cutting down on meat). Its what the tobacco industry does. And its what the DNC does. Rather than allow the conversation to be about those actually in power, who can actually decide to do things differently, the conversation is flattened to one where, through some magical unprecedented mechanism, mass individualist collective action is expected to manifest, and not only, but to also land on the same collusion around the value of Democrats value when put into power.

                  Its pure fantasy. It based on hypothetical proposition of voter behavior, one which has repeatedly been demonstrated to be false. There is simply no mechanism for it.

                  What is the alternative during the actual election?

                  Push the candidate to where the voters are. Be critical of candidates, harshly so. Force them to hear the criticism so that they move to where voters are. Do not allow them to persist in echo chambers.

                  You can not move voters in the course of an election cycle. You can move a candidate in an afternoon or during the course of one conversation.

          A system that is proving incapable of making a choice that doesn’t ultimately do more good than the harm it causes, probably isn’t worth saving to begin with. When offered the choice between facing a live-streamed firing squad, or getting stabbed in the back and left to bleed out in an alley, you’re not really being offered different outcomes, just a different process, and maybe more time to find a way out. That’s the real pragmatic choice. Not playing their sick game in the first place, and building an exit strategy.
