Dude I WISH Democrats were Marxist. Why do they always make Democrats seem better than they are.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 days ago

Because while liberals have a vague, uselessly imprecise understanding of what some unimportant words mean, like liberal and socialist, the conservative base holds knowing things in active contempt and the leadership likes to keep them that way.

Grandpa was crying about losing his workforce at the factory due to border laws.

Oh sorry did the consequences of your vote come sooner than you thought?

Dumb cunt

"I didn't think stopping immigration and deporting immigrants would mean not getting more immigrants to work and deporting MY workforce!"

The fact that they think the modern Democratic Party is Marxist is crazy

[–] [email protected] 111 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (6 children)

Their entire echo chamber is paid to say that over and over and over so it just becomes reality to them. I explained to a coworker that basically anyone that even slightly understands Marxism hears the right say that nonsense and it sounds like if I were to say "Donald Trump is a vegan organic farmer."

It's the same category as "woke" like this book:

Hallmark of brainwashing. Bypass critical thinking with vague statements of the outsiders "evil", but keeps followers from actually thinking about what they are saying with those statements.

"At least democrats are openly evil marxist traitors"

Mother fucker, HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO DO ALL OF THIS CRAP!! un-fucking-believable!

[–] [email protected] 92 points 4 days ago (1 children)

And it's not even fucking true! There's nothing Marxist about the Democrats except for the far right propaganda against them!

[–] [email protected] 62 points 4 days ago (2 children)

The democrats could literally have the exact same platform as the GOP and these brainlets would still think they were "commies trying to destroy muh free rights and guns". Whats funny is that the Dems arent even too far off from that.

[–] halcyoncmdr 20 points 4 days ago

I honestly believe someone could run as a Republican on the whole "it was better back then" train utilizing most of the Republican official platforms from the 1960-1970s. It's pretty damned close to the basics the Dems have been talking about and not accomplishing because of obstructionism.

It's clear with modern Rs you don't even need to explain anything, just say you're going back to the good old days when the US was powerful, etc. and hijack the current bullshit machine. Then push through the actual platform of the time, with receipts. Force them to face the fact their party has been hijacked.

Hahaha but that's when they say "oh he was just trolling" or "wow, you liberals can't even tell he was joking!"

[–] LANIK2000 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I thought the whole point was that the dems are liars and the reps just openly say "how it is". Nothing changed, MAGA did not change their rhetoric. I'd really like to know what goes on in their heads.

"I got swindled by a shyster with a decades long track record, twice in a row! How did that happen?"

[–] cybervseas 113 points 4 days ago (1 children)

"Does he still have your vote?"

"Yes."

[–] [email protected] 35 points 4 days ago

"he literally is going to enrich himself at our expense and do nothing to help you. Nothing but lies to get elected."

"I mean sure, he'll throw us all under the bus for a buck, but I can't vote for the Demonrats they kill babies to make the bindings for Das Capital, they facefuck Santa Claus, and they just legalized beating white Christian men with discarded genitalia from gender surgery for the sin of being conservative. It's mandatory in Commifornia now. Don't you even pay attention to Reality™©®!? Sean Hannity said so which means it's 100% TRUE! It's like all you do is watch biased media! Sean Hannity says that we conservatives need to work together to get Republicans in office so obviously he's not biased, he's one of us!"

Fool me once, shame on...shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Bush Jr was really something else. 😂

[–] FlyingSquid 5 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Yeah, but remember when we thought you couldn't get any worse than him?

It's almost as if Trump is a symptom and not the cause of the MAGA movement.

[–] Phegan 18 points 3 days ago

I wish Democrats were as cool as conservatives think they are.

[–] errer 44 points 4 days ago

This small vocal fraction of MAGA on social media is so insignificant and irrelevant to most of the people who voted for Trump. There’s absolutely no chance my dumbass aunt is aware of any of this.

[–] [email protected] 51 points 4 days ago (3 children)

I'm curious what Trump lie led to this

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 days ago

The possibilities are endless!

[–] egrets 12 points 4 days ago

The ouster of Bob Good and the H1-B visa controversy, I think.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I'm guessing probally the reverse inflation / food prices lie, it's the only one I ever see bitched about, but yes there are many

[–] Maggoty 12 points 3 days ago

Openly evil Marxist traitors.

As opposed to the guys doing a bait and switch right? No betrayal there...

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

This is the perfect opportunity. MAGAs have been betrayed by their leader, and their leader (Musk) is inviting dozens of scabs from other countries to do what would otherwise be high paying jobs for peanuts.

We can turn the Left Vs. Right Dichotomy into a Rich Vs. Poor one. Much better odds

[–] argarath 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The people at fox "news" won't do that, they're the rich and paid by other rich people, and the MAGA masses are too brainwashed by them to listen to anyone else

I wish the finding out phase were only this bad, tbh. The real shit goes down starting in at least 23 days and only gets worse after that.

[–] Gammelfisch 11 points 4 days ago

The full scale of the finding out part will occur in 2028. Yes, the USA is going to be a massive train wreck with Putin's Sock Puppet increasing socialism to cover up his failures. For example, farm subsidies in 2017 were around $7 billion and in 2020, he nailed $23 billion. The abused Payment Protection Plan...$953 billion down the drain. We'll see if the Louisiana bird flu really mutates and busts out of the red run turd hole.
