    The only good w*rlder:

    The last time this was posted, it was PugJesus, and he barely agreed to my live example of Imran Khan.

    And as a Pakistani, go fuck yourself. My democratically elected leader is in a jail going blind because American imperialism is universal amongst both parties, and Biden signed off on his removal without a second thought.

    Even more insult to injury, Imran Khan won his election against a corrupt, voter fraud heavy, and FPTP system as a 3rd party that upset the duopoly after 70+ years.

    Twice. Second time while he was in jail.

    So now all that manure you people scream about RCV for 3rd parties in the US is laid barren as propaganda from the DNC & RNC to convince you never to vote independent or 3rd party.

    Despite the fact the DNC was caught rigging their own primaries to ensure Bernie, a populist independent, would never win.

    Twice.

    Edit: Remove that Pakistani flag out of this shit excuse for a shill meme

    Now that’s news to me, I wouldn’t imagine they’re cohesive thoughts of any real value. Shitlibs tend to shut of their brains and blindly follow whatever corporate democrat the DNC appoints.

    If i was a liberal who’d come out as pro-genocide and still eaten shit barely more than a year ago, I would simply shut the fuck up forever and hope people would eventually forget about it, but I guess the cocktail of “sanctimonious” and “has a humiliation fetish” these people enjoy is really potent.

      The best way to address these losers is to say “Yes the pro-palestine purity leftists made you lose and we’ll do it again. Republicans will win forever unless you cede to our demands of ending the genocide”

      Yeah I really don’t know what the fuck is wrong with them, then again these same worms are trying to twist the narrative to turn the Epstein files into Russiagate 2 and make it all about Putin and not the establishment democrats who are infinitely closer to Epstein

    Extremely telling that even after all this they’re still not mad about their team committing genocide.

      You’d think they’d have figured out at some point in the last god knows how many years to reserve some of their spite for their own party that continues to spit on their faces any time they ask for something better

      Maybe if liberal politicians wanted my vote, they should be less trash

      I got a lib to reveal they thought Hitler got in power because people didn’t vote against him. I got another lib to say that my criticisms were good but they wanted an actionable plan, to which I responded with links to What is to be Done and State and Revolution. I was otherwise just running laps in that thread…

      All that dunking will be lost like tears in the rain.

        Lucky for libs the “just in time for an election” timeframe is about 2 yrs. Damn if only the good ol America didn’t have elections ~2yrs. Then we would definitely do something

    How many fucking elections can these twerps lose before they realize “but the democrats suck less” is a shit way to get people to vote? Two years before they even have a candidate and they are telling us it’s our duty to eat shit. Fuck off.

        Why would they promise anything anymore? Demand nothing, expect nothing. We don’t have that luxury when fascism is one election away. We just need to make sure win every election forever, which is a very reasonable and realistic expectation.

    Telling these people that as a non American i dont see any significant difference between the two is always met with patronizing bullshit that if you LIVED here then you’d know the difference and that anyone that doesnt live there shouldn’t have an opinion as if the foreign policy of the most powerful military in the world doesnt matter. Also im Canadian and American politics effect us enough it gets more news coverage than our own government

    “You have to vote for my candidate or they won’t win. You may have another candidate you’d want to vote for, but I wont vote for them, so they wont win, which makes them unfeasible. You have to be realistic and vote for my candidate, which is the only realistic option! Your candidate is unelectable because I wont vote for them so you have to vote for my candidate or they wont win which is why you can’t vote for your candidate” and on and on and on

    Somehow “the dems wont win unless you vote for them” is an argument for the dems while “the psl wont win because everyone is voting for the dems” is not an argument for the psl.

    But what is the trolley in this equation? It’s presenting this force of oppression as if it’s a runaway phenomenon with no agency when it’s quite clearly the opposite.

      Capitalism kind of is an algorithm of oppression operating on its own. Replace those on top with new people and it would function identically because it has no moral character. It merely has inputs (us, our dignity, our time, our labor, the finite resources of our world) and outputs (profits, exploitation and pollution), like a machine. Nobody is at the wheel, the direction is determined by short term profits.

      Capital is dead labor, that, vampire-like, only lives by sucking living labor, and lives the more, the more labor it sucks

    .worlder has thoughts

    You could have fooled me.

    How the fuck can these people keep reposting this meme for years and not realize that making arguments on a timescale of one single election is ridiculous? Let’s say you go D and accept Palestinians being slaughtered with a cutesy shrug, does that mean we are past the problem? No, obviously not, but the Dems will have more people to slaughter and you need to just accept it and always support them and derail criticism of them with this bullshit. We see right now the Dems moving further and further right on immigration, trans issues, etc. These worthless fuckers are literally just arguing for being boiled more slowly rather than have a chance of surviving.

    Also equivocating between the genocide in Palestine and most of these issues is disgusting, but they don’t view third worlders as human so I don’t think there’s anything to be done there. I’m curious where they’d put the Cuban flag if they could be bothered to include it. Could they say with a straight face that the Dems will definitely stop it?
