No, you are deliberately picking which impacted people you want to hear the voices of. Not these ones, huh?

Or was Walz approving a request to send the NG in against arsonists taking advantage of a BLM protest?

Thats how this is supposed to work. A collective of different perspectives all place votes for their and their families/communities best interest.

Democrats are really struggling to accept that half the country isnt better off under their administrations.

Are Dems improving things, or improving them fast enough? No. But I think the reality of today is that the only ones not better off under a Dem administration are wealthy people and bigots who want society to be a white supremacist hierarchy. I’m not saying people are well off, I am saying the alternative is worse, and by a lot.

If it were not possible to win an election as a MAGA the political parties would have to move further left. Instead we have Dems looking back on elections and deciding to move further right in attempt to pick up voters who actually cast a ballot.

If it were not possible to win an election as a MAGA the political parties would have to move further left.

This will never happen, because the source of MAGA is Capitalist decay, as I explained in another comment already.

You did write that. But you cannot tell the difference between New York arresting protestors who deliberately enter a fenced off area as civil disobedience and the federal government doing black vans and urging violence. So I don’t know if I trust your perspective or opinions on much of anything.

I can tell the difference, and I can tell the similarities as well.

99% of the population is worse off under their competition, so there’s still not really much of a choice.

The Uncommitted movement didn’t say to vote for Harris. And yes, Walz sending in the National Guard against BLM protestors is a bad thing.

You can read the article if you like. Or continue to participate in a distorted reality.

I disagree that arsonists were actually with the protesters. You have a really delusional perspective that allows you to pretend sending in the guard at all is the same as black vans. Or this. Or this.

Alright, link me to some of the worst of the Dem federal response to protests about Gaza. I’m ready to be wrong.

Yes, the Dems collaborated with the Republicans to crack down on BLM protestors. It wasn’t simply Walz acting as a rogue agent, but a collaborative effort.

Very recently, 200 protestors were arrested in New York.

Arrests are the same as black vans and the president urging for brutalization of protestors, I see.

Of course they aren’t 100% the same, why lose face when you can let your opponent do it for you? There’s good reason the Democrats let Republicans do whatever they want unpunished, they both serve their corporate donors above all else.

I see. Both sides bad, and colluding. Ratchet effect. But instead of pushing the gear so we rest against a tooth, allow the ratchet to do another click. Ignore Uncommitted, since we don’t like what they’re saying any longer. Listen to individuals when we like what they’re saying. What we like is to have a ratchet click. Then socialist revolution with Repubs at the helm.
