Um, blocking progress to the left was a major step in creating the concentration camps. That's how it works, my friend. We've been saying this for several decades. Maybe one of these days the message will get through... Not today, though.
It will probably get through as me and my friends are in camps thinking that at least this would have happened with Harris anyways. Im sure she was all about getting rid of due process and shipping citizens to El Salvador.
But its cool. You guys are gonna have that revolution any day now. I hear theres all sorts of plans already.
Edit: In fact, lets just go back to the image
Dems block going left
Repubs ratchet to the right
So when the republicans dont have power, do the dems do it for them? I mean I know they dont do enough to stop them. No disagreements. But if we never elected a republican in office again, and they never had either of the 3 branches, and they didnt control any state, we would still be going right.
Im not asking would they still block us going left
But do you think we would stop progressing as a country?
Cause going through hundreds of years, theres actual quite a few things we actually have progressed with. Like look at us in the queer community. When I was graduating high school in 08, I thought we were still so much further out from same sex marriage. And then once people focused on trans people, I thought we were still even further out from the dems helping them.
But yet over time they did move forward. Dont Ask Dont Tell was still dog shit. But it was something. Then it became queer people were allowed in. Period.
So even just in my life and my community I have seen progress. Its slow. It is. Its painfully slow. But its progress
So if we never had republicans in power we would suddenly stop that? Am I wrong about my community slowly becoming more and more accepted over the decades?
Or does me just knowing my communities history and celebrating where we have gotten make me a liberal?
It would have, just not to you and your friends, which is all you care about.
Actually my community, the black community, Jewish people, Native Americans. All of us turned out for Harris. We also voted to try and stop the republicans from rounding Hispanic people as well.
Its amazing how Im hearing that I only care about my community when its yall telling the marginalized communities we are wrong. That we are all the liberals who are to blame for all of this.
All of you? I didn't realise that minority groups were one undifferentiated mass and not individuals. I'm glad that you, the spokesperson for blacks, Jews, and native Americans, has set me straight.
Your daily reminder that blueMAGA liberals don't consider Palestinians human.
If you look at marginalized communities and ignore us because "Well not all agree", when shit like 82% do, then just say you dont want to listen to us. And you try to call me out for speaking for those other communities while also saying theyre shit libs and dont listen to them either.
Once again proving my point.
And this is why communities are about to become more insular. Cause if yall hate us, then fuck it. Do it. Im just glad that this last year has finally shown that all this talk about supporting minorities hasn't meant shit. And I can guarantee you I have heard more than enough people saying that same things.
So were you summoned in a ritual of some kind, Mr avatar, or do you form out of the aether? I’m curious how the entire collective will of all members of marginalized groups became merged in one obnoxious .world poster.
You still haven’t revealed if Palestinians are part of your collective hive Mind, but I’m getting the feeling they aren’t
