Not beating the coronation allegations.
Also for those who don’t know, “the south got something to say” - she’s quoting Andre 3000 at the 1995 Source Awards, a historic moment for southern hip-hop. This whole thing is a joke.
DNC voters are such good little pawns
I’ll never forget how Kamala was such a deeply unpopular candidate in 2020 that she got a total of 0 delegates in her home state. Everything about politics is completely manufactured by the bourgeois
Everything about politics is completely manufactured by the bourgeoisie
It’s clear as day and yet we’re the crazy ones for pointing this out.
I’m pretty sure she suspended her campaign well before the California primary election. At least I looked it up and her campaign’s Wikipedia says she suspended in December of 2019. That primary was in March of 2020, so it would be kind of odd if she got a lot of votes.
she dropped then because it was the last day before the deadline to be removed from the California ballot
So she wasn’t even on the ballot? Seems reasonable to get 0 delegates for your home state if you’re not even on the ballot.
Maybe it’s not surprising but seeing almost every left leaning community (aside from here, thank fuck - not that I thought people here would fall for it) descend into full-throated support for the democrats where any dissenting voices are shouted down genuinely makes me feel like I’m witness to the forming of a cult or some shit
The US appears to be in some kind of suicidal spiral, so the cult thing fits.
Biden’s speech last night was better than Obama’s. Obama was just pushing the same bipartisanship bullshit as always. I hate how much Democrats like him. Biden attacked republicans and had a few “my opponents are bastards and actually accuse me of supporting something, and I actually do because it’s actually good” lines. Not to butter up Biden, but I prefer it so much over Obama’s empty compromise bullshit, and again I really hate how much Democrats love to hear that shit from Obama.
Republicans aren’t decent people you have a disagreement with. They’re hateful scum and their platform is evil and shouldn’t be allowed to run for office.
Thing is tho - so are Democrats.
It’s one of the things I care about the most because it effects me in deeply personal ways fairly often, it costs me friends and scares the shit out of me, Obama and Biden are historic, incomparable, evils on genocidal ‘anti-immigration’ and ‘border control’ policies in the contemporary era.
The Republicans genuinely do not compare, rhetoric aside, what they actually do is so much fucking tamer, life is so much less dangerous on average.
I’m not saying Dems are worse than Republicans, tho perhaps some specific men are. I’m saying they’re the same creature.
Of course they’re bi-partisan.
“The white conservatives aren’t friends of the Negro either, but they at least don’t try to hide it. They are like wolves; they show their teeth in a snarl that keeps the Negro always aware of where he stands with them. But the white liberals are foxes, who also show their teeth to the Negro but pretend that they are smiling. The white liberals are more dangerous than the conservatives; they lure the Negro, and as the Negro runs from the growling wolf, he flees into the open jaws of the “smiling” fox.” ― Malcom X
The difference between a liberal and a fascist: The fascist wants to kill you. The liberal wants the fascist to kill you.
Hey guys, remember Lil Jon? Yeah he was the guy who said “OK” like 15 years ago? And now he’s in his 50s? Re…remember?
“Turn Down for What” was the quintessential “song your high school principal awkwardly dances to during an assembly to show everyone he’s ‘with it’ in the early 2010s”
It is important to me that government officials fire up the loud and order another round of shots.
we went from voting for the “guy you could have a beer with” to voting for the “woman you could go to da club with”
