Because democrats are deathly afraid of any mildly progressive party getting funding and being on the ballot nationwide, because then their entire blackmail scheme falls apart. You can't go "you fucking better vote for us, or else" anymore.
The democratic party has been suing to take PSL and the Greens off ballots in multiple states (which also serves to cut into their budget, which is almost entirely small contributions). That's the party trying to save democracy apparently.
Everyone knows that he's a fascist. We also know Kamala and her cabinet is gonna be hardly better, so if you're gonna vote, don't waste it on a genocide enabler.
We already know all the talking points of "pushing her left", we know y'all ain't gonna do shit, because you didn't do it with Biden and you certainly wouldn't have done it with Obama, it's always people who voted third party out there organizing while y'all wait for the next election to come around for you to pretend you're doing something.
In fact, the Democrats since the 60's have run campaigns WAY against the threat of late-stage Capitalism.
Bruh what world are you living in lmao. Obama reached to bankers uncaringly tanking the global economy by giving them money to do with as they wished (and, as always, they wished to give themselves a bonus).
This. As long as they have a base big and dumb enough to buy any and every excuse to go further right (and blame progressives for it), they'll keep doing it.
This is what the democrats have always been, just now they stopped pretending to care about people abroad or the issues that matter to the voters (and not the donors) and surprisingly that's still good enough for the blue no matter who crowd.
Whenever you think the government is stupidly wasting money when there's a cheaper and more humane solution, you can bet your neck it's to funnel money toward corporations.
They usually jump through those hoops to obfuscate the trail and pretend there's some economic complexity. There ain't, it's just laundering a corporate subsidy.
Donald Trump is a threat to democracy 😭😭😭 now shut up and vote for the candidate, peasant. You'll have a primary when you earn it.
"MEDIA PERSONALITIES LIKE" is a pretty important part of that sentence that you shortened to sound conspiratorial. It would do everyone well to read the entire article rather than look at the shortest quote for a gotcha.
In April, he won the prestigious White House Press Correspondents’ Award “for overall excellence in White House coverage”
That's like the fourth paragraph. So, yes, even if you don't know him, that's very influential.
Just because it's not CNN or the NYT saying it (they would never go against the state department unless public opinion has already massively shifted) doesn't mean it's a bad source.
Le monde is one of the most "reputable" sources in Europe and they're corroborating, is a good source only a US source? For a conflict on the other side of the world? There's literally video evidence of the kidnappings.
I knew Americans were really propagandized but Jesus Christ, after these few years I think given enough time the media could get the entirety of reddit worldnews to believe the sky has always been greenm
The fact that this thread replies to facts by going "b-but, Russia" like it's still fucking 2016 is just peak political literacy from USians. Not only do they vote for candidates everyone hates, they get absolutely piss mad if a candidate tries to run on issues their voters believe in.
I thought the issue with reddit was that it was full of idiots and bots, turns out it was just full of Americans lmao.
With the state of western software development and how ingrained the US and Israeli security state seems to be there, plus how much China seems to be prioritizing top-to-bottom self-sufficiency in tech, I wouldn't be surprised if a Chinese fork that welcomes Russian contributors becomes a force unto itself.
An ecosystem where India, Russia, and China based coders take leadership is an ecosystem that has a bigger chance for mass adoption in the biggest manufacturing economies in the world.
