Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind (except towards liberalism).
- No liberals (unless you are a masochist and enjoy the abuse).
- Strictly no downvoting (downvoters may be community banned, 4 the lulz).
- Bernie Sanders is still a liberal.
We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

Out of curiosity, what is stopping a politician from accepting copious amounts of lobbying "donations" then just saying "thanks for the money, dickheads" and making laws against the corp?
If one can do that, I might get into politics.
I don't think there's anything stopping that, except they probably wouldn't give copious amounts right away. Give you a little, see if you dance for them, and then if your did, more money. Can't give you the gravy train early, you might do what you're planning on doing, even!
