@AliceFromQueens It’s actually pretty simple: the winning party, since 2008, have found “one weird trick” to boost low propensity voters in their coalition. For Obama, it was minority voters voting for a first black president. In 2020, it was a $2000 bribe .. I mean stimulus check .
I mean, cmon. it’s obvious what happened. Covid era Massive stimulus, the great resignation,inflationary wage price spiral, federal reserve crackdown with high interest rates. Kalecki called it 70 years ago, the only solution is to destroy capital in war

@Friended4Ever Guantanamo is a prison camp, not a concentration camp. A concentration camp is a place where a dominant ethnicity concentrates and confines (hence the term “concentration camp”) members of a subjugated ethnicity in order to easily control them and assassinate their leadership

@roddreher@conor64 He’s a rogue elite, like Franklin Roosevelt, but in the opposite direction. Connor Kilpatrick was kinda right when he said he’s like the right-wing FDR, but actually more appropriate is to call him the white Obama— a false pale imitation of FDR that failed to deliver.
