But in their infinite wisdom, they decided former presidents and presidential candidates were a sacred cow and we cannot hold someone accountable for their crimes of they might become president, we must put them in a position to ruin everything
Maybe America could learn something from more advanced, mature democracies like Brazil and Korea. They apparently know how to deal with traitorous insurrectionist authoritarian trash.
Not really, it’s the corruptions that dun it …even with a functional justice system the judiciary can keep stepping in for political reasons, lobbyists, money, corruption.
The problem will always be money and power.
This is the point I keep reminding myself of. We had four years to do anything at all. We all knew version 2.0 would be back like deja vu but worse, and we (as a country) just let it.
Propaganda, election interference, election fraud, hostile nation interference, etc. it wasn’t just the voters, and it’s reasonable, given the evidence of corruption and election interference, to believe that they did get away with cheating the system this time. Not that we can do anything about it.
We fucking tried telling everyone Biden wasn’t good enough, no neoliberal is good enough to have a D by their name.
Theyre conservatives who oppose change, but without all the stupid racist shit conservative voters want.
So don’t blame it on us “as a country” blame it on the the people that kept shoving neo liberals down our throats as the only other option.
It’s not some impossible task, the freaking DNC already kicked neo liberals to the curb, Schumer and Jeffries are coasting off their votes happening before the DNC vote, if it was the other way around wed have real leadership in the Senate/House already
I still stand by my comment. Four years later, and we are still sitting in the bullshit for round two. We, as a country, failed the task at hand.
It’s all been down hill since they did Bernie dirty.
I was in high school when it happened. Been in the work force for 6 years now, still fucking pissed
Been paying dividends ever since. Nothing gonna change
The fucked up thing is in 08 Obama could have got a progressive DNC chair…
But he just ignored the DNC out of spite, which is why in 2016 they were broke and took Hillary’s deal for funding in exchange for complete control over the DNC.
Voters did our part and elected Obama, and then he fucked us
Just gotta elect despicable criminals who aren’t puritanical asshats, let them fight their own kind. Someone like that guy who took gold bar bribes, just let them go at each other mafia style so we can worry less about civil rights infringement. Politicians who might get garroted in a coatroom by the opposition wearing a rainbow pin should be less concerned about the woke agenda.
Or a functional electorate.
A lot of things probably would’ve worked out if capitalism wasn’t a thing either. Oh well. We’re past that now. There’s only one way out.
