We're stuck in a demented good cop bad cop routine and the dems have upped the ante. Their line is effectively now, "vote for us so Trump doesn't use the tools we specifically gave him because we knew how scared you'd be." Except the dems are using those tools right now, to defend their genocide. Bleak.

Unlimited genocide on the Demokkkratic Party
Im told that we have to support this, or trump will get elected and also do this.
looking forward to Genocide Joe losing and leftists, who have no real power outside of the glorified scam of voting, getting the blame.
Those that make peaceful revolution impossible etc etc
the parmesantarian revealed that the powers of the presidency can only be used to do bad things, sorry sweaty Biden doesn't have the power to make sweeping changes for good only for bad
"Look I hate to be the one to tell you this but the president isn't God, he can't just do whatever he wants"
*Biden announces he's sending more arms to Isreal with or without congressional approval
"Maybe some day you'll understand that politics is about compromise, also fuck you, were not going to stop doing a genocide and you better still vote for us"
If you don't vote for the blue genocide enabler then a dastardly red genocide enabler might get in! 
R/politicalhumor unironically had thisnpist today where it was the trolley problem but the democratic side was one person labeled Palestine and the republican side had like 4 or 5 people.
At least they've moved on from trying to say they aren't genocidal maniacs and are just tryng to brow beat other people into agreeing to also support genocide.
"Vote for our genocide or the other team will genocide even more people you care about" literally just a threat to frame it like that
Saw a comment in the thread (which was heavily downvoted obviously) that I'm stealing
"You have to vote for biden or else Trump might bomb the rubble and mass graves"
vote for people who seem good
they flip to terrible people immediately
get told should have voted harder to get anything helpful done
I wish.
The people aren't even making the effort to seem good.
The literal current message of the democratic party is "fuck you were going to keep doing whatever the fuck we want. We know you don't like it but what are you going to do, let trump win?"
Trump is a massive asset for the democrats because they're literally using him as a gun to take their own voters hostage.
yeah. fetterman was the last one to get a big media push like "hey look at this guy he's progressive or whatever" and even with him it was a pretty thin veneer. Now he's one of the worst
Honestly Fetterman is about the one person I can think of recently (Sinema last election cycle) that actually did try to pretend to be halfway decent before doing a heel turn and literally telling his voters to go fuck themselves.
Hopefully it works as well for him as it did for her and hes a pariah for a couple years before being primaried by 40 points.
cant believe i was somewhat excited that he'd got in at the time, feel sort of ashamed of it now
history has unfortunately shown that the safest bet when considering whether any american politician will be good is a flat "nope"
It's wild because I actually saw some polls recently that showed them to be regaining the lead, then they do this. Like yeah polls are flawed, but it is maddening to see them do this.
He is literally turning a big dial that says "Racism" on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant on the price is right.
It's pretty clear that the polls merely tell them how far they're allowed to push. Voter support is just currency to them, whenever they creep up in the polls it means they've built up enough spending power to implement something horrible.
At this point, if there is a "lesser evil" party, I don't even know which one it is
I mean they are pitching him as only 99% Hitler
PSL
The Supreme Court is about to let cities and states make homelessness illegal too
It really is crazy they've gotten bold enough to try the play off "Nobody is entitled to a living wage and also if you don't make a living wage that's illegal"
The more depressing thing is the vast majority of Americans are so selfish and cruel they side with the government while being one medical procedure or missed paycheck away from homelessness.
That's Turd Way Politics for ya.
Can someone link me info about the non profit bans. I can't find much about it and want to know the details
According to the Congressional Budget Office, “H.R. 6408 would suspend the tax-exempt status of organizations that support terrorism. Under current law, an entity’s tax-exempt status is suspended if it is designated by the Department of State as a terrorist organization. H.R. 6408 would extend that prohibition to include organizations identified as having provided material support or resources to a terrorist or terrorist-supporting organization within the prior three years. The bill would establish procedures for the department to provide notice to those organizations, for organizations to refute the designation, and for designations to be rescinded.”
It has not yet passed the Senate. Hexbear thread: https://hexbear.net/post/2382939?scrollToComments=false
Also we saw an entire political party collude to expell everybody that wasn't ideologically in lock step with them.
It was the 2016 and 2020 primaries, the head of the DCCC resigned over it, and liberals to this day insist it didn't happen.

But if trump wins, democracy is over!!!!!1!!!One
Which is exactly what they said last time before losing the easiest election maybe of all time and then retaking the presidency through voting four years later.
Democracy is over if he wins! And if he loses. It was never here in the first place.
It was never here in the first place.
Bingo, Actual fucking oligarchy was written into the Constitution. Only rich white males had the vote.
Any democratization has happened despite the Constitution, and is fully exposed to clawback as long as that constitution is in place
It's bad folks.
Genocide Joe isn't 99% hitler because eu law says you can only call him hitler if he's from the hitler region of bavaria.
Are you trying to destroy America? He may be old but he was not a member of the German National Socialist Party therefore he can't be a nazi, so you better vote for him or we're all dead already.
Are you trying to destroy America?
no more half measures walter
Are you trying to destroy America?
it's funny to imagine this as the opening to a late-night infomercial
