Ah yes totally goes with saying we should punish/investigate criminals instead of going we must only look forward not back so the country can heal. We can’t do anything about past crimes
He would have been absolutely hamstrung by the the bullshit factory that is the legislature, and nothing good would have happened that wasn’t undone immediately by the next administration.
No, the problem with the leading Dems is that they ONLY respect the institutions. And their owner donors, of course.
They’d rather let a million people die from lack of political action to save them than subvert the Holy System or inconvenience the rich people legally (and sometimes illegally) bribing them.
I don’t agree. They waited until they lost a supermajority in congress to push healthcare reform (what became Obamacare). And dang, wouldn’t you know it, mean old republicans wouldn’t let us have single payer.
So we got a healthcare bill that mandated we buy (generally) private market insurance. A bill written by Penny Pritzker, an insurance industry lobbyist.
It’s kabuki. There’s only one party — the billionaire party.
And I’m pointing out that history repeats itself when you don’t learn from it.
Just like the fascists of today are fucking shit up like the ones in 1920s-40s Europe, the auth left extremists would fuck shit up like the likes of Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot.
The horseshoe theory shitlibs trot out to defame the left may be bullshit (definitely is), but auth left oppresses people because it’s auth.
You just don’t get good things from a select group excessively controlling everybody, no matter which group that is and how good their initial intentions are.
Imagine the world we’d live in if those corpo fucks didn’t screw over Bernie
I got this shit from him after Oct. 7 so don’t be so sure
He has moved away from being this outright shit since then, I will concede.
Or persecuted Nixon, or Reagan, or Bush Sr, or didn’t give up when gore “lost” to bush jr

Doing anything about past crimes is impossible, sorry. Also currently ongoing crimes.

He didn’t need congress to sell weapons for genocide.
He just needed congress when it was shit he didn’t want to do.
Haven’t you been reading the news? Apparently you don’t need congress.
The problem with the Democrats is that they still have respect for the constitution and institutions. Otherwise they’d get a lot done.
Then why don’t they take office when elected?
They dont have respect. They just would rather see the other guys win than the the window move one nanometer left

People are OK with auth right. But auth left? Oh no, that’s not gonna happen. The military would coup the shit out of that real quick.
Auth Left is still inherently abusive.
No matter how much you pretend that it’s for the greater good, authoritarianism will always be detrimental to the relatively powerless masses.
Oh I’m not pretending anything. Just saying that auth left would never get as far as Trump is getting.
History would very much disagree with you.
Not talking about history. Talking about what would happen today.

Using authority against billionaires is good actually
Yeah, but it’s not like auth left stops there.
You can have egalitarian taxation and common sense regulations without being generally authoritarian, and you should.
“People” or Russian bots?
Also true.
Not that there’s really any “winning” here but it’s nice to dream of the imaginary reprieve we never got.
Life is pain, highness. Anyone who says different is selling you something.
Or if harris had literally a single electoral group she didnt actively spray shit on
Or if clinton hadnt helped trump win
Or…
Hey, it was her TURN
