Judge arrested

There probably won’t be midterm elections. If there are, it will be with armed ICE agents accosting people in line to vote and making arrests.

Time to play dress-up and vote in your best MAGA outfit. But I'll warn you--you can't out MAGA me, I'm Latino, after all. 😂

Believe it or not, straight to an El Salvador death camp

No way the party incapable of doing anything defeated by the party capable of only evil, never would have seen this coming

[–] Corn@lemmy.ml 17 points 3 weeks ago

You're selling the dems short. They've shown theyre capable of facilitating genocide, sending the police to kick the shit out of politically activated college students, the kind who get all their friends to vote, funding ICE, building bigger "migrants overflow facilities".

DNC: Oh no! Our fellow party members have been harassed and killed.

Also DNC: Anyway....

But but but....there "sounding the alarm". You don't understand it's sooooo hard to run candidates someone would really vote for. (sarcasm)

Well Trump won in 2024 so obviously that means the american people want conservative policy. Trump moved right, that means if we run on Trumps 2024 platform, every Republican except the wackos further right than Trump will vote for us! And everyone to their left has to vote for us anyway! W/Elon 2028!

*This is just year 1/3. There will be eleven times more of this before Trump's term is (theoretically) over.

[–] Owlboi@lemm.ee 15 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

thr year is nearly halfway over already so its closer to 1/2

[–] PunnyName@lemmy.world 38 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

The year is only just starting to get to the halfway mark. It's only been 4 months and 25 days since inauguration.

Fuuuuuuuck

Pointing it out, and spreading the message is the first step to getting a critical mass required to affect real change.

Instead of shouting it down, maybe take up the chant.

Let's not forget all the Bad Things™ the Republicans have dealt with this year! They have:

A Republican-funding billionaire throwing a tantrum at Daddy Donny.

A Republican senator arrested for CSAM.

Good American patriots are being targeted and singled out! Woe is them, it's not fair! /s

For those of you keeping track, for this week it’s MAGA 5 / “Resistance” 0

[–] Mustakrakish@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (8 children)

Hey but the cities around me had protests that went till 2pm, only on a non-work day and family friendly so everyone could get their photo ops and be home in time to watch the game. That's surley going to change things right? ... right?

Year 1? Fuck is not even been 5 whole months

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 21 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

So you can see where this is going? What are you going to do about it? What are even realistic options? Perhaps a strongly worded post on X?

[–] Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca 21 points 3 weeks ago (15 children)

Instead of bitching in the same public manner they are informing people on, what's YOUR resolution..or do you just complain about others

Fuck all the assholes that voted Jill Stein over Palestine or some stupid reason like that. It never was about Palestinians, and these assholes got us here: Hell

You brought all of us here, you deserve nothing

[–] Ferrous@lemmy.ml 41 points 3 weeks ago (26 children)

Fuck Joe Biden and team for watching the devolution to fascism happening in real time and deciding to spend their time doing genocide instead of stopping fascism.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 40 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I still can't believe they sat on their fucking hands after Trump's multiple indictments, and did nothing to prevent the dude from running again after breaking the law 90+ times. What a useless party. All they did was try to look good.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

What a useless party. All they did was try to look good.

Be fair. They also sold weapons to netanyahu for genocide.

If anti-genocide Americans weren't significant enough to listen to, they're not significant enough to blame.

Concepts like that are too logical for the Liberal mind to comprehend

Yeah all those third party voters who if they all voted for Kamala wouldn't have changed the results of any state are to blame. Not picking unpopular polices, or breaking away from Biden who was a deeply unpopular candidate. It's the people who had zero impact state and federal level.

Not worth listening to, but big enough to blame. The enemy is weak and strong.

You're right about the few morons that voted Trump who do not share his hatred and bigotry, but remember... most of the country didn't even vote.

Question: I'm not one for protesting and marching in the street. I'm sure it matters, but I'm introverted and large crowds make me very anxious. I also have health condition that needs regular management and live in the rurals, most of my time is spent at home. What can I do to actually help?

I already donate to causes I care about regularly, such as my local food bank, wikipedia, NPR, and PBS. Is there something else I can or should be doing? I hate what's happening to the US right now, but I don't feel like I have much, if any power to do anything about it or help, outside of donating to charitable causes.

But hey, at least people are gathering in the streets! If there's one thing that fascists hate it's groups of people walking together.
