I only recently learnt that the couch fucking story is a joke and is not true.

[–] sgtgig@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago

A lot of people are saying it though

[–] 4am@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 hour ago

That’s what Valdimir Futon wants you to think

That's not how the couch tells it.

Are all ya dumb fucks who refused to vote for Kamala happy?

Ya happy all your trans friends are about to be sent to concentration camps so you could virtue signal your pathetic hollow support for Palestine (that's actively doing far worse under Trump than under Biden BTW)?

Hope all the death and destruction partially on your hands was worth you feeling like a special little hero for a few hours last November.

No shit.

Hey assholes - this is what the "worse of two evils" looks like! Remember it for the next time, if you get a chance again.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 14 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

Well, it was all worth it because something something "status quo" and we'd have a genocide in Gaza, or something.

[–] OboTheHobo@ttrpg.network 2 points 36 minutes ago

I will always understand having grievances for the democratic party because all they do is defend the status quo - I do too - but not voting over that is just fucking stupid. You want to change that? Go to protests, vote in primaries, support local initiatives for ranked choice voting, donate to causes you find actually beneficial, support local politicians that dont just support the status quo, support movements you believe in. If its about Gaza, speak up about that, donate tk humanitarian funds, etc. There are ao many things you can do that can impact these things. But refusing to vote does actually fucking nothing for that cause.

There is no world in which more people refusing to vote for Kamala would have gotten us a better president or stopped genocide in gaza. Or really had any impact in any way that wasn't making trump more likely to win. IMO the folks that did that were doing it more for themselves so they could feel morally superior because they didnt vote for the candidate that supported genocide or the "status quo" even though it literally never would have had any impact on either of those things.

(And let's be real - trump is way worse for Gaza than Kamala would have been. I'm sure she wouldn't have done enough, just like Biden, but at least there are voices in that party calling out Israel. Those voices fall far more deaf on this administration's ears)

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago

I mean we did all witness how maintaining support for Israel was deemed more important.

JD Vance is a domestic threat.

Exactly how would this work? They just going start arresting trans people for existing? Are we really going sit by while they just start rounding up citizens who have committed zero crimes?

This shit needs to be shut down before it starts.

There's a dial under the hat of every ICE agent. They'll just turn it from "Latino" to "Trans".

[–] NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 hour ago

Americans already are. This is happening right now, lots of people were legal green card holders and in many cases citizens.

These are Nazis. Yes.

[–] DrDickHandler@lemmy.world 7 points 2 hours ago

They will be put in camps, deported and executed. Yes, America will sit idly while this happends.

[–] wunami@lemmy.world 37 points 4 hours ago

ICE has already arrested citizens who have committed zero crimes. We are past the start.

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 16 points 4 hours ago

I have never seen one media person ask a blue state representative: "how far would you let things go, specifically, before you would use state law enforcement to directly resist federal agents to protect your own citizens? How bad would things have to get before you were willing to start shooting people?"

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 37 points 4 hours ago

Most of america has already been sitting by while non criminals are being rounded up.

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 23 points 4 hours ago

Well.... Yeah. Remember how Trump wanted to be able to revoke citizenship?

[–] MyOpinion@lemmy.today 12 points 4 hours ago

I expect nothing less from these Nazi scum.
