It's so indicative of the entire party modus operandi. Talk about all the bad things they're doing while they're doing them, continue to do them anyway, and then celebrate that you did the bad thing as if it was a good thing.

It's madness. And they think we're the accelerationists

It was an absolute dogshit land acknowledgement too. "Thank you for taking care of our land, indigenous people. We'll just be keeping that forever, thank you very much."

Democrats laughed when trump tweeted "someone do something!!" but that's just all politicians. Getting real tired of hearing the party in power promise to fight for reproductive rights if only people will vote for them again.

We promise we'll keep promising to do things that we won't do if you vote for us!

Thinking of a line from Reno 911, "We, uh, aim to try."

Dems and republicans have evenly shared presidential and congressional power for however long and yet somehow Republicans have steamrolled them to a SC supermajority and yet this time, they’ll have the fight to do something if you just vote for them

It's fucking awful. The verbiage is so gross.

America was "built". The indigenous peoples were simply "Stewards" of "our land" and didn't build anything for themselves.

How did it come to be our land? Who can say?! But we're thanking the natives for taking care of them until we showed up UwU

they kindly kept the land warm for us before God was ready for white people to have it

Land acknowledgements without action are just bragging about what you did

The DNC is basically just taking a victory lap to celebrate all the atrocities

But how can you blame Kamala for the genocide? She was only second in command
