They're going to start straight up murdering Democrats and jailing activists that try to register people to vote and then tut-tut that Democrats only win the vain affections of voters but simply cannot make the case on the streets with force and blood as the Founders did during the Revolution, the only test of strength that actually mattered. The thing with right wing rhetoric is they tell you exactly what they're thinking and often the left is like "lol ur dumb, what pointless bravado" instead of taking them both seriously and literally. I mean I think voting is important, critical even, but it's pretty limited, think of how many Blue Wave and Resistance clowns are like "don't intimidate Mitch McConnell at dinner, vote!!! BLUE WAVE!!!" nonsense while the right are just straight up beating the **** out of people and purging voter rolls and then tell liberals to cry about it because pure power grabs are the real contests, we're literally going to be in concentration camps and these people are going to be registering people to petition the forced labor supervisor for better rations.

you are going to be massively disappointed. the actual number of votes doesnt matter. dem voters will be disallowed and in some cases the actual vote numbers will be altered. repubs are gonna hold the house easily.

lol at thinking our voting methods are remotely reliable. listen, republicans are gonna straight up change votes in many states.

Does it ever get uplifting at all? Loved the book but I stopped watching the show after like episode 5 because it was just too grim and depressing.

I'm not sure how you misread my tone as "celebratory".

I was mocking you, and the undercurrent of the mockery was a threat that if you really want to continue to celebrate how effective your side is at divorcing holding power and popular legitimacy you should think about what options you're leaving the citizens who oppose you.

It is insane that Twitter hasn't banned this guy. They are openly allowing their platform to be used by a maniacal dictator hell bent on the destruction of our country. I know money is cool and all, but damn they need to turn this thing off.

posted this in the House elections thread, but this is already happening:

Media will report as “Trump tweet sparks confusion in pre-existing conditions fight”.

guys PLEASE don't harass McTurtle at Applebee's or this will continue to happen!

Hahahahahaha, Republicans are totally going to co-opt the Dems on healthcare. Serves them right, if the left is going to waste their time tittering about Trump’s taxes and Russiaghazi and ignore their signature issue, they deserve to lose.

It's up to us to do something about it if they wont. A mass boycott by liberals mighht get them to change their minds.

Meh, I’m sympathetic to the Democrats plight here. Anyone paying even a little bit of attention knows the GOP is lying. When the audience wants to be lied to, there really isn’t any amount of talking in reality that can counteract the denial.

I think it’s a mistake to get worked up about all the lying as the key problem. Their voters know they are lying.

Just amazing. Trump is going to run on single payer and minimum wage hikes in 2020 win because those things are hugely popular and then blame the Dems each time the GOP do something ghastly.

I’m usually one to bash Dems for ****ing up the easiest of wins, but this is way off base. Democrats have laser focused in healthcare. It's not their fault every major media outlet is focusing on a walking caravan thousands of miles away from the US border.

They are allowed to run on popular policies like medicare for all. No one is forcing them to be limp dick incrementalists except themselves. Like the response to this shouldn't be trump is a liar wahh. It should be hell yes we'll protect pre-existing conditions we'll guarantee free healthcare for all.

He’s talking about Brexit right?

MAGA Habes helpfully retweeting an op-ed by a W slappy, this is normal. Note that no one in the media objects to the word “lie” when Dems are doing it.


One of these days Republicans will realize they can just run on marijuana legalization and capture a huge chunk of young voters. I know they’re beholden to the prison industry, but co-opting the left on this would be political dynamite.

Recall AND remember

This. This is wildly popular. They will not do this because their controlling corporate interests will not let them. I don't want to sound like a tinfoil hat wearer, but those are just the facts in the Democratic Party right now.

GUYS PLEASE

don't harass the Zodiac Killer and his wife in a restaurant, either, they are entitled to privacy
