Nobody wants to admit that America is a capitalist totalitarian state that simply changes faces every 4-8 years.
Vote for capitalism because you don’t have any other choice!
Biden isn't the hero we deserve, he isn't even a hero. At best, he is The Penguin who got out played by the Joker (as Trump doesn't even pretend to take the rules of society seriously).
Lemmy "leftists:" good thing it was never about the Palestinians.
"Leftists" on Lemmy will praise everything about China. I don't think real socialism is supposed to be making that many billionaires, so it must be something else they admire there.
Do people like Trump because he aligns with their politics or because in a simple way he expresses American identities of being irreverent, 'straight talking' and entrepreneurial? Just a thought as an outsider.
I can't wait to be deported back to Michigan.
I haven't read all of the comments, but here's a fact I haven't seen mentioned: The sociopathic narcissist doesn't give a rat's ass about Palestine, true, but he also doesn't give a rat's ass about Israel. He cares about himself, and will say or so anything to gain support and acclaim. He's making this threat solely because it plays well to his donors.
THAT'S the scary part. If the authoritarians didn't exist in our midst, he'd be a middle manager somewhere, instead of a contender for the office of President, again. THAT'S what we need to address, and the history of the past 30 or so years shows that getting a Democrat in office doesn't fix anything. Electing Biden won't make the authoritarians go away, which is why we're back with as rematch of the 2020 election, with our democratic institutions four years weaker, and the vulnerable people in our society more scared and more under threat.
Who's going to beat them in 2028?
I called that one a couple of weeks ago.
