Despite the organizing of thousands of federal workers and a growing grassroots opposition to Donald Trump, the Democratic Party leadership refuses to offer any serious opposition to a billionaire coup.
Say this on more mainstream politics communities and get downvoted all the way into the core of the earth.
Liberals have nothing to offer other than vote harder and if that doesn’t work, protest ineffectively and not annoy anyone.
My new favorite useless protest I came across was doing nothing for 10 minutes at 2pm every day. Who the fuck comes up with this shit? Protest that nobody notices and inconveniences no one doesn’t do shit.
We need a stay at home* wildcat general strike. Remember when covid hit and most people were forced to stay home? Let’s do that again but without the threat of covid. Let’s see how the capitalists like that. No working, no shopping, nothing, until they abdicate. And if not, violence. we only have one chance to get this right and we’re running out of time as the technofascists become more powerful everyday.
*stay at home because how will bloodthirsty trump attack protesters if they’re all home? It’s a lot easier to beat the shit out of people gathered in the streets than it is to figure out where everyone involved lives and drag them out of their houses. “Sorry I’m sick with the flu and diarrhea can’t work till musk is deported”
That’s the perfect response to a lot of comments on Lemmy, but not the one you’re responding to. I don’t see the “shitty attitude” unless it’s “shitty” to speak plainly.
Many people don’t align with what a “liberal” is but they get told they objectively are one, often based on one sentence that has nothing to do with anything
I’m never up-to-speed on the lingo, liberals or progressives or tankies or whatever. I yam what I yam, but none of the labels fit so I don’t take it personally. :)
No, it’s literally vote blue no matter who blue MAGA cope land. They don’t see the democrats as controlled opposition but as legitimate, which is insane, because no real opposition party would be behaving like this under these circumstances.
As a queer person, too bad about my shitty attitude. I’m not going to be tone policed by liberals as they block any effort to stop the rise of fascism. I fucking despise them. They brought us fascism.
Oh right the pouty left doesn’t actually do anything except prevent the Democrats from doing anything. Well, and throwing soup in history museums. That’s very popular.

Probably what’s getting downvoted is your shitty attitude which focuses more on labelling and being angry at people who don’t actually oppose you

What a LIBERAL thing to say!!!
Why, thank you.
The world would be a perfect socialist paradise if not for you! JUDGEMENT
He’s worse than that other lefty who did all the bad things!

See that user’s response to me for an example of being called a liberal. As an added bonus, I’m “tone policing” them

Great - now get it done.
