Leftism is when you go to home depot to buy cinderblocks after the Berlin wall falls

@AdoEngFans Hi! Do you have a Bluesky account and if not will you consider making one? You're like the only thing I miss about this place.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@telftweets @LeftieStats @CNN I take issue with this framing because it presents liberals as idiots who don't understand that this won't work, when instead they're just doing this ideologically and not because they misled themselves into thinking it's the best strategy.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@YeshieSir @shaun_vids I mean fair enough that was mine too so I guess I went back on my own prediction

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@YeshieSir @shaun_vids Yeah I was pretty sure Harris would win this one, then do nothing at all for four years and lose to the next fascist.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@GaldirEonai @YeshieSir @shaun_vids Individually they'll do that, but the forces that make it so that they're a favourite to win the midterms are systemic, and systemic beat individual, so they're most likely to win the midterms.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@YeshieSir @shaun_vids We have these elaborate political discussions with people who have ideologies, the people in the margin who decide who wins vote based on vibes and how their life is. Their life will be worse under Trump, so they'll vote for democrats again.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@WhatsUrName0o7 @shaun_vids Systemically unlikely.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@YeshieSir @shaun_vids They're going to win the midterms most likely

When we say America is a deeply evil and fascist country, the liberals who post stuff like “the south deserves those hurricanes” and “I hope the Muslims that voted third party get deported” are also part of that

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@piercepenniless It is interesting in a sense but it is also extremely uninteresting, it's just how the system works. Nothing happens under Democrats, so people are dissatisfied and vote Republicans. Then under Republicans things get worse, so they vote for Democrats again. Illusion of change.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@ZaidJilani @zackbeauchamp Nah man it ended long before that :)

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@CoreChamber @ElsaSkold @BernieSanders You can answer this but more importantly, Biden won.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@ArkDavey @OsitaNwanevu @jonathanchait You can tell they're ideologically pre-baked when he describes a race in which four or five different candidates ended their candidacy so that the moderates could be united and stop the leftist as a "race to the left".

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@Duffunion_ @OsitaNwanevu @LittleMammith I didn't lol, I just knew it was someone dishonest. It's Chait so it tracks.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@OsitaNwanevu The person who wrote this knows they're lying, there were like five different candidates running not to the left at all and they all ended their candidacy purely so that Bernie wouldn't win 2020, the exact opposite of a race to the left.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@ChaserSword6449 @abradacabla I agree with you, the bulk of the complaining during Trump's presidency will be done by leftists, and you won't do much.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@ShiariOmega @alex_bezak @abradacabla What you wrote after "it's systemic because" is not an explanation of why it's systemic. What you describe is not a system. I would be surprised but then again you're a liberal, like 75% of your ideology is about only viewing things through the lense of individualism.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@ShiariOmega @alex_bezak @abradacabla That's maybe the exact opposite of a systemic issue: some individuals fucked up and if they hadn't the system would be working fine.

[Jaqen @Jaqen1]

@ShiariOmega @alex_bezak @abradacabla That's not what a systemic issue is.
