Republicans have a racist new idea amid the war on Gaza.

    You’re being downvoted but you’re not really wrong. Biden just sent millions of more dollars to the cops " to protect schools " as if American police departments aren’t already some of the most heavily armed and well equipped police in the world right now.

    The Republicans are definitely more overt in their anti women and anti queer rheortic and actions, but the dems are fortifying the military industrial complex when the writing on the wall is clearly that these weapons will be used agaisnt the people domestically rather then protecting any schools or whatever bullshit reason they come up with.

    Many police have been openly supportive of fascist movements and helped facilitate Trumps election in the first place. Not to mention most American cops seem to think that the BLM protests were worse then J6. Giving them more weapons and power will only result in more death for the average person. They’re a quasi military/state within state force at this point.

    The fact that this critism is not taken at face value is insane. Biden is a racist bootlicker in his own right. Democrats will sell the rope to the Republicans that they will use to hang them with.

      So, giving more funding to cops is the exact same thing as the culture war Republicans have drummed up. Huh, interesting take. Also interesting to note that the one person you mentioned who is actually moderate at best is the sole representation of the entire Democrat party. No nuance and no other ideas are allowed. Just Biden’s. Got it.

        More or less. Who do you think fights on the frontline of the " culture wars " ? And yes, Biden is the leader. He represents the party. You wouldn’t make such foolish defenses for Trump or the GOP, but will for democrats.

      Downvoters without commenting their dissent are just cowards, I wasn’t expecting good anti imperialist takes from lemmyworld anyhow

      which is why im very surprised someone like you is here, your voice is a rock in a storm, I thank you.

      The dems have also continued building the wall, opening several large oil extraction projects, and have ended any response to the still very active covid crisis.

      But libs will take the lies at face value without doing anything to look at the actual actions being taken. After BLM most democrat mayors increased police spending and cracked down on all BLM movements. BLM failed, it was co-opted into a useless saying and hashtag. The dems exist to break the american left and turn everyone into mindless liberals.

        Because they appropriated the words of Malcom X and Martin Luther without ever actually reading what they said about America!

        Anarchy is our mother! She cannot be sold! Long live the rebellious souls!
