      Neoliberals are conservatives. That’s how we ended up here.

      Conservatism is fascism and it has infested both parties. Allowing conservatives to continue existing among us will always lead to fascism.

      Our push to the left must be merciless and unending. Normally, peace cannot cure fascism. We must accept that violence may be necessary to survive this.

        Yup. When is the last time we saw dem leadership organize the party effectively, or release meaningful pushback to culture war rhetoric? It’s nada all the time with these clowns. Fucking Schumer and Jeffries apply all their efforts to serving billionaires and are happy to be unpopular as long as they get to lead the losing party. I’m sick to death of hearing how brilliantly Pelosi handled Republicans during her tenure— she literally fucking led us right to where we are now. Fuck anyone who serves billionaire interests.

              The normal people disagree with your defense of conservatism. Conservatives are pure evil and should be dealt with as such. Your insults only add to my motivation to erase them.

                  Funny you would suggest that specific activity. I have donated my time at food pantries. Many, many times. One thing I’ve noticed there is a distinct lack of conservative volunteers.

                  Conservatives are biologically unable to experience empathy for others. This is why conservatives are almost never found giving their time to the vulnerable unless there is something in it for themselves (ex: church cred, entry to heaven, free food).

                  Conservatives’ inability to experience empathy is also why their relationships are so shallow. For example, a conservative male sees his family as his property. He loves his wife the way a teenager loves a sportscar. He cannot develop a deep personal affection for his wife because that requires empathy.

                  A conservative’s lack of ability to experience empathy is also why bigotry comes so easily to conservatives. It’s why genocide is so easily supported by conservatives. It’s why conservative policy so consistently harms the vulnerable.

                  If you are not a conservative, you really shouldn’t defend them. They will never humanize you. Never. They don’t even humanize each other. They simply can’t.

      They’re doing everything they can: talking about it. We voted them into the minority, they have no ability to do anything.

          Lol wtf does some random article from 2019 have to do with today?

          “Right now, Democrats have no power to do anything but talk about the thing that happened this week, and they are talking”

          “Well SEVEN YEARS AGO they criticized the lady they’re talking about now!! On a topic that ha nothing to do with her immigration status, which is currently being discussed. EVIIIL”

          Genuine question, not trying to be insulting: are you stupid?

            I believe the point OP is trying to make is that they have no problem calling her out, but won’t come to her defense. Why? Because they actually answer to corporate interests, and what’s happening to her now doesn’t matter to those interests.

            If their corporate donors called them and expressed their concern, you better believe they would have a press conference and be all over the Sunday political bs shows talking about it.

              But…they are. There are many Democrats, including minority speaker, calling this political persecution. OP is conveniently ignoring that, because it doesn’t fit their narrative.
