But you don't understand, in 1992 the Democrats won the Presidency with like 40% of the vote on a message of "Republican but with less bigotry," which proves that Americans love their basic economic message of "fuck you get your own food, shelter, and medical care!"

Damnit, I've been saying constructed opposition. I had the phrase wrong!

Some say he would still be president to this day without that rule.

Dude get this, a rightwing youtuber I follow that uncritically spouts rightwing vomit that I dutifully swallow and regurgitate for other incel babies told me the indigenous people of the US are secretly muslim!

This got me scared enough that I decided to just unquestionably believe it and now I am hiding in my lifted pickup watching Dirty Jobs on repeat to try to calm down, what should I do Grok?

Hey now, I liked Dirty jobs when I was a kid. Is Mike Rowe a bad guy?

The TV star who jerks off business owners every chance he gets and says worker safety should be third priority is a bad guy.

Just read his Address at Madison Square Garden, New York City, October 31, 1936. The whole thing still feels very relevant and is a worthwhile (and not too long) read. The quote that stuck with me today was:

We know now that Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob.

We could use another FDR I think

[–] [email protected] 62 points 1 day ago (6 children)

If we got another FDR, I think I would have a heart attack from joy. Someone who will fucking fight for us. Jesus the bar is so low at this point.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

FDR was a member of the ruling class (aristocracy really) and did those things because of a very real fear of socialist revolution given the relatively recent Russian revolution and the ongoing Great Depression.

If we want capitalists to give some ground to working class standard of living, it will be because they are afraid of losing the whole game

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 hours ago

I used to want them to give some ground. Now I want us to take it. It's become absolutely clear that they don't just beat us down for advantage, they hate us and want us dead or suffering.

We have the power, but they have us using it to fight each-others. It's time for the people to unify and use our power to tell the wealthy what the new rules are going to be.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago

Honestly, something akin to the French revolution wherein we instil a cultural, physical FEAR of too much wealth that would stay for several generations, at least, would be beneficial for humanity on the whole.

So if we can get them to fear us and run on "hey we don't wanna die. What do you want?" that would be welcome.

Watching Mamdani interview Trump voters in NYC really woke me. Tired of all the hateful takes on these people. They want politicians to listen and act and thought Trump would do that. No, they weren't paying attention the first go-round, but Trump got their emotions.

If you really want to understand Trump voters, and what we need to do to get progressives in office, have a look:
