Raise your hand if you're tired of Americans playing the victims while doing nothing

[–] 4grams@awful.systems 2 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

Raised, but I feel like one of them. There’s so little I feel like I can do. I was going to go to a protest but wound up taking a group of scouts to the Indian Museum. Felt like a much better, and more impactful use of my time, and it was magical watching those kids hang on the words of our tour guide, as she told us the story of how they won their land rights.

But that’s the long game, and I am terrified that the short term battles are not being fought.

So many of my friends have just given up, waiting for the next election to fix it. I don’t have any faith that will work though.

I’m tired of the future being destroyed by capitalists/christian nationalists. That’s been happening for hundreds and thousands of years, every time they gain power, no matter where or when. Republicans are relatively new to this game.

I’m also tired of society having to relearn this lesson at great loss of life and suffering, over and over.

We’re smarter than this, and we far outnumber them.

Im tired of the purely performative nonsense in modern democratic party as well. For the resources and votes that go their way they always find a way to deliver nothing, or actively betray us all. Supporting far rightwing genocide, pissing on progressives and progressive causes, and utterly ignoring the working class in the last ~10 elections (since Carter) are prime examples of this.

Time to toss the traitors out the door and clean this party out.

I'm not even American and... Yes

I'm tired of this country sucking all the fucking life out of me.

Not just Republicans, conservatives in general. All Republicans are conservative, but many Democrats are as well. That needs to change.

Mamdani shows it’s possible to start the purge of the DNC. We need to continue that. Primary every last conservative. Drive them from the DNC, drive them from politics, drive them from political discourse and public life. Authoritarianism must be crushed, Constitutional rights must be restored, and common sense policies for real people must be enacted. If we can’t achieve that, then all is lost and totalitarian neofeudalism will prevail.

Just worth saying again for the tankies that are very passionate, but seemingly not enough to vote or organize material change. As disappointing as the dems maybe they are still the home of the little progressive wing we have, and we should work into growing it.

You are correct! I tend to use the two interchangeably when I know that conservatives pushes out to a larger group.

And frankly, anyone who acts like this was just another election where one side lost is only slightly higher on the totem pole than conservatives are.

My grandpa killed Nazis so his son could become a Nazi

Title to a future song of a generation, right here.

[–] pawnfuture@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

This is a long standing plan mainly by the Heritage Foundation and the GOP. Musk hacked vote tabulations to deliver them a victory and they're quickly dismantling America. They stand to inherit lifelong positions in the government without actual elections similar to Russia. There are less than a few thousand people responsible for all of this. Societies degrade rapidly under these scenarios. Remember them when if that happens.

No he didn't. Unfortunately, americans are just that stupid. Thats the same rhetoric conservatives were trying to use when they lied about dominion.

Ramapo 35 had democratic senator winning 80% of the vote and Harris received 0 votes. There is a lawsuit currently about this.

I'm tired of both Democrats and Republicans destroying the future, and people pretending Democrats don't because they do it slightly less

As an outsider you're both just as bad as each other, Republicans and Democrats

[–] Flickerby@lemm.ee 1 points 13 hours ago

They're both horrible but one is less horrible than the other. When you only have two choices you choose the less horrible option because not choosing is choosing the worse option.

It pains me that my fellow Americans cannot see this.
