The Green Party has a long history of working with Republicans to get on ballots in swing states because they're a fucking ratfucking grift and anyone who doesn't see that is too stupid to vote.

"I don't support genocide, so I'll instead support the party that's funded by Russia, parrots Russian propaganda about Ukraine, and supports policies which would allow Russia to enact genocide on a vast scale in Ukraine. Durrrrrrr." Meanwhile Biden has consistently supported a two-state solution. 🙄

I assume the plan was based on them being jealous of Australia's bullshit where they send people to Nauru. But Nauru is at least near Australia and relatively safe (though the policy is still evil as fuck). Rwanda is half a world away and, you know, Rwanda.

I was in the UK last summer and kept hearing them talk about this on the news. At first I assumed it was some sort of euphemism. Jesus the Tories just suck ass.

I mean, maybe. The nuttiest of them would take that to mean that electing Trump is the best way to ensure Jesus comes back in their lifetime.

Awkward. Just saw one independent candidate in the UK who had to stand on stage while they read out that she had won... 1 vote. Like... you didn't even have a few friends or family willing to vote for you?

If Biden can't campaign he should consider passing the torch, but the elite press (and especially the NYT) is desperately trying to will this into existence. And it's really gross. (2/2)

Y'all could vote to be a Republic tomorrow and cut off your alliance with the UK and USA. Nothing would happen (well, except weakening your national security).

Honestly still in shock that the most crooked American President in history said "I need immunity" and the GOP Supreme Court said "well, it's nowhere in the constitution, but sure, why not? Whats the worst that could happen?"

He doesn't have dementia and Trump was more consistently incoherent. It's just that people are used to Trump just spouting off gibberish.

I was gonna make fun of him for that but had already decided to just block. Orwell was a socialist who volunteered to fight fascism, but I guess his whole "totalitarianism is bad" take makes him a "bitch" to keyboard commies.

Very, very little. Parties are ridiculously powerless these days. They don't even control the money anymore, as most comes from PACs.

It's the kind of fallacy people use when discussing Weimar Germany or Red Vienna. Just because it was eventually swallowed by fascism doesn't mean it was always destined to do so and nothing could have been done. Human beings made choices that lead to the demise of German democracy.

It's the 60th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act. Pretending that we never made giant strides towards a real multi-racial secular democracy is ahistorical and deeply unhelpful.

Stalin's Soviet Union (particularly towards the end of his life) had many aspects which were deeply fascistic. I guess that means that fascism grows everywhere in every system all the time. 🙄 Similarly just about every country has slavery and genocide in its past. So I guess everyone is dooooomed.

They thought the same shit in the last war. Just because Northerners didn't have militias all over in case there was a slave uprising doesn't mean they weren't still mostly farmboys more than able to shoot a rifle.
