Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind (except towards liberalism).
- No liberals (unless you are a masochist and enjoy the abuse).
- Strictly no downvoting (downvoters may be community banned, 4 the lulz).
- Bernie Sanders is still a liberal.
- This is a genAI friendly instance, so no complaining about genAI content.
We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

I'm not an American, but I would imagine him treating the symptoms of capitalism is the only real power he has. It's not like he has the ability to change State or Federal law if elected.
If people see his policies succeed it is very likely that not only Zohran might very quickly find himself in higher positions where he has authority and influence to change national law, but also the very democrats who claim such fundamental change is impossible might find themselves replaced by people who are actually willing to work for the people.
So a lot is riding on Zohran's failure.
You'd be correct. He is doing a good thing and I didn't mean to come off as critical if I did.
I didn't mean to sound critical either, just adding context.
Yeah hes running for mayor, not emperor. It's just to say he isn't doing anything too radical and hes still getting this much hate.
