Why is this random piece of history relevant in a news comm though
Look at OPs profile picture, then search for "Lakhta-2 business center".

Oh no there once was a dude called Stepan Bandera, this CLEARLY means Ukraine must surrender immediately to Russia!
Go back to Telegram.
Well, you can't vote fascists out, but historically speaking they've always been voted IN. Authoritarianism is always a degeneration of liberalism. When people get fat and lazy, shit like this happens. Weak men creating hard times ect.
This made me so mad I actually looked up my representative and wrote her how impotent this stunt was. Of course, "writing your representative" is just as pathetic, but SOMEONE had to hear about my anger. Kudos to Al Greene though. The old geezer stood up for all of us, literally.
Not by voting, but tomorrow I will hold up a sign near a road for 2 hours. Trump will have no choice but to step down after that.
Trump and gang is trying to have AOC charged for terrorism, so it seems to be working. She should either get DNC leadership now or finally form her own party.
Don't care what's a dirty word where, I don't self-censor. Yeah outside the US liberal means market-liberal (libertarians). The Liberal party USA is a splinter of libertarians as well. They had a fall-out at a libertarian convention in 2022, where it became clear libertarians were bought by Russia, started calling for appeasement to Russia and some members started being overtly racist. About a fifth of the caucus left the convention in disgust and formed the "Liberal Party", which is actually pretty socially progressive while retaining fiscal conservatism. As for third party math, all it would need to take for third parties to work is for people to vote for it. Have enough people do that and dems might actually re-align. It just can't continue on like this.
There are more Russian refugees in the US than Ukrainian ones. Are they gonna have their status revoked too?
No. Or not yet.
Do you know about the actual liberal party USA? Not a toothless "wing" of the Democratic party. I mean the ACTUAL liberal party we have in this country? They got less votes than Vermin Supreme last election. I hope they will do better next election, but it still won't amount to even 0.1% of all votes. Because Americans still believe voting third party is "throwing your vote away", while voting for actual traitors (democrats) or just giving up and voting for the king is the way to go. As long as AOC and others cling to the ramshackle ruin that is the DNC, there straight up is no hope. It is a calcified collection of geriatrics and powerless minorities without a clear goal and no leadership except the already retired ones who play the stock market (Obamas, Pelosis, Bidens...). Look at the dead-eyed onion that is Hakeem Jeffries. "Here is your Obama 2.0 but in boring, pls vote for us. Eminem is endorsing us after we gave him some money, SURELY you will vote for us now?". Controlled opposition.
Progressive take-over will happen after the second civil war, or not at all.
I swear to god man.
You swear to do what? What are you gonna do about it if we don't get rid of Trump? If we don't engage in large-scale riots and die so Canadians are safe? How about YOU do something? The best way to deal with an aggressive neighbor (geopolitically speaking) is invading them to enact regime change or just genocide the people there. Go on. Do it. Put your money where your mouth is and start walking across that border with a weapon in your hand. Once you win you can impose whatever government you want here.
That's the problem with "Someone should kill Trump and Elon Musk". The "Someone" part, which translates to "anybody but me I just want to continue being lazy and comfortable".
I think they realize this. Their latest messaging is "get active, go out into the streets, do something". This is as much a call to action as it is an admission of helplessness on part of the Democrats. And while I support that message, I hope they also understand the fight is NOT being waged on behalf of Democrats, who need to transform as much as the GOP has or better yet disappear and make space for something better.
