Interviewer brings up irony of shirt logo
MAGA guy says how great Trump is
Interviewer points out that the shirt is wrong
MAGA guy calls Trump best president

Lol they don't care about facts and reason at all, it's like a sports team to them.

Mainstream media already has piled immense resources into making sports into a glitzy and kitschy spectacle, and then has piled even more resources into doing exactly the same for journalism.

Perpetuating their persecution fetish 😴

We get it. They're ignorant and dumb. Same vibes as the occupy wall street videos where they asked the dirtiest and least intelligent person they could find why they were protesting. This kind of content just makes me sad at this point

It keeps us divided. If we think right wingers have nothing in common with is, then we've swallowed the BS. During these interviews there are certainly some people that bring up good points that both sides do have in common, but why would the media bother showing that?

Nobody hates them over differing opinions. It's more about the need to oppress anyone they deem as not like them and their desire to harm anyone who disagrees.

Save that both sides shit for your personal rationalizations, no one else is buying it.

Republicans win just fine without coordinating with the Democrats. We need to organize and push the democratic party to be a proper leftist party that fights for the working class, not coordinate with fascists.

Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

Rules:

Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
No brocialism/sexism
No ableism
No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
No racism
No trolling
No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
Mods have final say

Posting Expectations:

Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends
