If you can look at how every single dem senator voted to confirm Rubio, and still not buy into the idea that the democrats are controlled opposition, I don't know what to say to you.

Bernie is red fash.

/s

Kirsten Gillibrand, one of the senators who stood with Schumer and folded as they voted for the republican spending bill, was literally the AOC of yesteryear. You can push populist candidates to your party of capital until the cows come home, but special interests will swallow them up every single time for eternity. You need to think beyond the democrats and American electoralism in general for that matter. The devolution into fascism is well underway. It's time to abandon the democrats that helped achieve it.

Are you sure you aren't describing America's education system?

Incinerating the planet in the name of profit is a very recent concept.

If you want to play with AI slop, maybe log off lemmy and start doing this on your own... Not a single source cited.

Could I leave my job at the factory to go to university?

Yes... as is evidenced by an entirely free education program.

If you're making the claim that "factory workers of the USSR had no freedom to go to college", then supply some evidence please. Stop beating around the bush.

Higher education was free in the USSR as stipulated by its constitution.

By worshipping the musings of the 20 something, slaveowning, landowning, white men who set out to create a nation built on the wholesale genocide of Native Americans.

By continuously degrading wages, prohibiting public transport, withholding healthcare, perpetual wars, diminished education, disenfranchising voters, and the bipartisan effort to concentrate power to the executive? Fascism is not a new phenomenon. The reasons for its proliferation are well-documented, and even as leftists have accurately pointed these out, they've been laughed away by liberals. The liberal framework cannot explain how fascism takes rise.

Ruzzian propaganda!

How's that 100 years of "voting for the lesser evil" treating you?

There's a remote risk of this catastrophic failure happening due to bad maintenance, installation, or building, but there's no risk of this happening due to normal rotation/swing. In other words, assuming the machine is in good working order and used for realistic applications, this will never happen.

Here's a video that explains how excavators achieve infinite swing angle without tangling the hydraulic hoses that go to the motors in the tracks. The dude in the video knows his stuff.

Naive as hell. Yall are a joke. Way to avoid any of my questions.

Yall are the type who'd be ridiculing a 1940s German Jew for not voting liberal. This is why leftists accurately point out that liberals will side with fascism when things get rough.

If, in 30 years, when the choice is between a democrat who wants 20 genocides and a republican who wants 21, will you still be voting blue? This is why people call you blue maga. There is no red line. You all will sacrifice however many Palestinians or Ukrainians it takes to bide time till the next election cycle when the Democratic party is definitely going to have a liberal Renaissance led by AOC and Bernie, and fascism will be defeated and we can all dance for joy. Never mind the lives of tens of thousands of Palestinian children it took to get you there.

Do you think Germans in mid 1930's Germany had a duty to vote liberal despite democracy having already been thrown out the window? As people were getting sent to death camps and there was zero hope of fair and free elections, did Germans have a duty to vote blue? Or did they have a duty to start getting organized with vulnerable groups, learning sabotage, and getting armed?

Your "pragmatic" utilitarianism has resulted in a genocide and an incinerated planet. Your empire is over and devolving into fascism, and it's time you start realizing that.

In democracy, politicans represent constituents. Biden and Kamala ignored constituents. Biden and Kamala lost. This is how democracy works. This outcome was more American than apple pie.

Soooo, was there "standing" to weaponize ICE and start deporting US citizens? Was there standing to weaponize the DOJ? Was there standing to cut funding for NPR and PBS? Was there standing to pardon all the Jan 6 rioters? Was there standing to cut all government programs via DOGE? I could go on and on.

Taking the stance of "well, Trump won't be able to do this because it is illegal" is naive as hell given what we've seen in the past 100 days.

This utterly blind faith that the liberal institutions will somehow halt Trumpian fascism is exactly the same blunder as was made by liberals in early 30s Germany during Hitler's meteoric rise.

Take a step back and realize the American political experiment is over. Given how it's gone genocidal and incinerated the planet, we have a duty to dismantle it from within.

This is blind faith.

Many of his wishes have come true in recent months. What makes you think this is impossible?

So, despite its ability to "easily" be amended, it still enshrines the right to enslave people? How is that supposed to make me feel better?

Stop apologizing for your wack ass constitution that was made solely by 20 something, white, male landowners. We are seeing now how easy it is to throw it out. Weak ass document.

You were fine with fascism abroad. It's only domestic fascism you have an issue with. Typical liberalism.

Seven out of ten Nazis killed in WWII were at the hands of the Soviets.

The US constitution explicity enshrines the right to enslave people. I know of no other constitution with such a stipulation. All of the other rights you mention go out the window when people can just straight up be enslaved.

Every single democrat, Bernie and AOC included, just gave full-throated support to Biden as he presided over the greatest wealth transfer in history.
