“Years ago, I became more and more appalled at the progressive—whether it’s ‘Abolish ice’ or ‘Defund the police’—all these kinds of bizarre, boutique views. Like, here’s another toy for Republicans to play with!”
this is the guy people touted as a good progressive
here’s another toy for Republicans to play with!”
What to make of this? The Dems pretty consistently seem to view policy demands from the electorate as a bad faith attack on them that only serves their enemy. They don’t seem to think that they have any responsibility to implement policy that would benefit their constituents. They also seem to think that their constituents are supposed to know their place by dutifully voting and otherwise remaining silent.
We were mesmerized by his large adult son glamour* which may have been related to the large number of us that imprinted on Shrek.
* “Glamour” in the “enchantment” or “magical charm”/“illusion” sense, like how a vampire lures in its prey by claiming to be progressive, but really just wants your people-juice. Not in the “hngggg, that Steelers hoodie is so glamorous, yinz! It’s making me all slippy” sense.
Seeing Fetterman described as “left-of-center” caused my spirit to temporarily leave my body.
When I asked him whether he had any concerns about the way in which Israel’s right-wing Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, was conducting the war, he answered with a shrug. “I’ve never rendered judgment on him, because he is the leader, he is the democratically elected leader,”
Ugh, I skimmed way too much of that article. Sending my energy to Comrade Stroke.
“I just cannot understand how someone capable of such empathy for the victims of violence in Braddock has none for the tens of thousands of Palestinian children who are also victims of violence.”
Now Trump was competitive in the polls and the left’s invective was directed at Fetterman. “We are in a mad season of the Democratic Party,” he said. “We are turning against ourselves instead of realizing that we don’t have the luxury of fucking around.”
I can’t believe I ever thought a good thought about this guy.
Like, nothing has blackpilled me more than this situation.
