What are you saying? That leftists aren’t adequately critiquing the things Trump says?

That cat sure does love lasagna.
This new inquiry will surely be the end of his campaign.
Christ almighty you just sent the goalposts into orbit.
76% of the nazis killed in WWII were at the hands of the Soviets.
The reason we’re seeing libs get into such a tizzy about it all of a sudden is because it’s finally being pointed inwards.
“Akshually sweaty, banning the leading fascist networking tool during a period of unprecedented fascism would make the president a dictator”
Good lord. Imagine being this lib. Even if Biden wins and we stave off fascism for 2024, it won’t be long until we fully backslide if this the height of liberal analysis. Utterly toothless.
So dictators are people who do the absolute minimum to halt fascism. Got it.
So all of these obstacles that you list as reasons to why Biden is so ineffective - why didn’t he just nominate an AG who’d give him a free pass to do anything he wanted - like Trump? Why isn’t Biden bending the rule of law to halt fascism?
The answer is because you cling to “precedence” and “civility” so hard that you’d rather see a fascist takeover before a democrat disobeys your precious rules and processes that were set up by 30 year old slave owners. To liberals, the rule of law takes precedence over a fascist takeover. It is bizarre.
So let me get this straight… you hold (one specific reading of) the first amendment to be so sacred, that you’d sooner follow it and allow its dissolution by fascists, than deplatform the fascists who wish to dissolve it?
You’d sacrifice your constitution and nation just so that you could have the moral benefit of having followed it?
Get real man. Tik Tok was never about China. It was always about silencing support for Palestinians. This is known.
Why do I feel like you’re the type to argue that fascist rhetoric is protected under the 1st amendment? If you think fascists deserve a platform, you are the bad guy. This is liberalism.
If we are to believe Biden at his word that Trump will attempt a fascist coup regardless of election results, why is he spending his time banning tik tok instead of truth social?
Biden’s promise is that Trump won’t accept election results, and the nation will be plunged into cataclysmic ecocidal fascism.
So why is he spending his time outlawing tiktok instead of truth social if the risk is truly so monumental? Why does Biden seem to care more about allowing trump to run than halting fascism? Why would the democrats rather lose than shift left?
The funniest part is watching liberals try to understand where this discontentment on the actual left is coming from: is it russian bots? Is it maga trolls? Is it Chinese agents? As opposed to the revelation that maybe some people are further left and more apathetic than run-of-the-mill American liberal democrats. Anger at Joe Biden is anything but inorganic.
Marxists weren’t warning about the inevitable alignment between fascists and liberals for 200 years for nothing, you know. There’s history behind that argument.
Take a step back and understand you are now arguing in favor of perpetuating your ecocidal, genocidal, and imperialist political project at the expense of 32,000 palestinian lives. You are the bad guy. I suspect that 30 years from now when the choice is between democrat who wants 5 genocides and a republican who wants 10, you’ll still be screeching about how important it is to vote for 99% Hitler since political analysis for liberals stops at the revelation that 99<100.
If the democrats hold “civility” and “precedent” more highly than outlawing a candidate who, by their own admission, would plunge the country into fascism, then democrats are complicit.
Dog, take a look at what has happened this week alone (under a dem president): arguing in favor of unprecedented levels surveillance to any president, sending billions of dollars to a genocidal regime, the revelation that like 40% of democrats are in favor of mass deportations…
Fascism is already here. Just because it is being formally codified in Project 2025 doesn’t mean it has yet to arrive. Democrats, and liberalism in general, are unable to stomp fascism.
To be fair, doesn’t your argument presuppose that all psychs are religiously following every recommended guideline to the letter? That seems like a stretch.
Good luck trying to explain to working-class people that the struggle they’re feeling is only because they don’t understand economics well enough.
It’s just words, and they mean nothing. The state of the union is the ruling class’ best take on kabuki theater. He’s a genocidal maniac.
Which is still very much learned behavior, often the result of an uncle pestering “So little Jimmy, got a girlfriend yet?”
Aren’t you going home each night to sit with your thumb up your butt? Plenty of people are saying it, believe me.
