As if we needed further evidence that Schumer is a worthless, contemptible piece of shit.
Chuck needs to go. Come on New York you are fucking the country with this shit.
Itās cause heās racist
chuck the cuck
Now thatās an insult to cucks. Schumer has no redeeming qualities
Maybe he has the same minor condition like Mitch McConnell. Must be awesome to have all these āexperiencedā people still in congress without any term limits. Surely does not stand in the way of progress because they fully comprehend the modern world.
So, are you going to do everything possible to depose him? Or will you keep throwing a tantrum, refuse to vote, and let the regressives steamroll more?
Since he explicitly said that his job is ātoo keep the left pro-Israel,ā his silence is perfectly in line with his job description.
It is enough to make one wonder in what country the Baelis reside.
Thatās cause heās a pos who enables this regime and Israelās too.
Schumer and Jefferies both need to be removed.
I genuinely think things will devolve to the point that Americans using political violence against the establishment democrats is the only path forward. Itās fucked up. But I feel like itās the only way America doesnāt devolve into a nation ending civil war. Actually. Cuz looking from the outside I donāt see the outcomes of any of your elections moving the needle anymore.
Voting out republicans doesnāt solve the problem of establishment democrats preventing newly elected democrats from fixing anything.
edit: Hopefully Iām wrong. But this is what I believe will happen.
I donāt know that violence is entirely necessary, but working toward the DSA becoming its own thing and letting the Establishment Dems crash in to the hard reality that nobody supported them in the first place, they just disapproved of them less than the absolute mayhem on the right should probably happen.
Upvoted; but please understand, Iām not describing what I want to happen. Iām applying my weapons grade autistic pattern recognition to my background in attending and paying attention to history classes.
The Republicans and Democrats are the sword and shield of the wealthy elites respectively.
I agree with you, itās not necessary. But Iām warning you that itās inevitable. Those are not mutually exclusive!
Obviously not everyone is going to agree with me on this. Hopefully Iām wrong.
I donāt think anyone should rule it out, I just donāt think the death blow to the elites is going to come from partisan politics anyway. I think weāre past the tipping point where the system as built can be salvaged.
I just donāt think the death blow to the elites is going to come from partisan politics anyway.
Thatās beyond the scope of what Iām saying. I only mentioned wealthy elites to illustrate the role establishment dems play in subverting progress.
MMW USA will either play an integral role in the global working class uprising, or no longer exist in itās current form by that time.
The only way the dsa will ever have any actual power is if they tea party the democratic party. Remaining a third party will in most districts in the US just make them a spoiler that gets republicans elected.
This is the answer. If people want change, they need to get active and primary democrats with the candidates they want.
Wishcasting some kind of third party into existence is naive and the outcome is we get more Republicans in power and life gets remarkably shittier as a consequence.
If we somehow get ranked choice voting, itād be different. But right now there is only 2 viable choices in the general. Do what you can for the primary and hopefully you feel better about voting in the general. Sitting out or voting third party is just helping conservatives and their agenda being waged on America.
I specifically didnāt say their own party. Although thereās something to be said for fighting for a 3 party system, itās simply not practical given the structure of the constitution. The only way to have an effective 3+ party system is starting over from scratch. The USA would not survive such a ground-up overhaul.
Yeah, I dont think reforming the Dems is possible anymore. I had hopes but it increasingly just seems like me huffing hopium. Dems wont charge your family for the bullet for your execution, but they will still pull the trigger when their klpetocrat rulers tell them to-- same as the GOP. Some would say that lesser evil is the best we can hope for, I think we should all disagree and have a real government.
Soā¦. You donāt advocate for violence against MAGA, just the Democrats. Got it.
Welcome to fuckin Lemmy where every fucking thing the republicans do is a democrats fault for some dumb fuckin tankie-ass reason.
Itās a Murcās Law paradise in some of these threads. Itās beyond ridiculous.
If I wanted to get that kind of opinion, itās all over the place in every corner of the āliberal mediaā and the extremely right wing media.
Yeah. Iām seeing that. Itās like they arenāt clever enough to hide their bias though.
I think they were saying that it will take both. So itās a bit of a both sides argument, but really itās an accelerationist or total collapse argument if you really follow through on those actions.
Anyone that doesnāt actively advocate voting for the most progressive candidate in every primary and then preventing republicans from gaining power at any cost in the general is an accelerationist.
Yeah it sucks, but itās the only rational solution in the current rules.
If weāre taking violence, Iāll start with Republicanās, thanks.
Dem Centrist leaders will cheer you on, then knife you in the back when youāre fighting, then when you have finally got the republicans vlying anquished on the floor, the dems will lift them back up and forgive everything they did. Centrists are as much your enemy as your friend. Its literally in their name, ācentristā.
I said start with, not end with.
Which is exactly my point fyi. If establishment democrats continue to undermine the democratic will of their voters than inevitably their voters will turn to extra-democratic solutions.
Call it what you will. Says more about you than it does me.
Americans donāt get to gripe non-Americans wishing acceleration on them. Full stop.
But Schumer is Republican.
Yeah, the Murcās Law vibes are strong in this thread. Attackingā¦Democrats? First? What is even happening?
lmao no you wont
Not the way you seem to want propaganda man
Of course he hasnāt. Omar actually cares and isnāt a corporate ass licker. She is exactly what Mr. Stern Letter Glasses On The Tip Of His Nose Schnuck doesnt want in the Democratic party. Omar getting denaturalized and deported would be a win as far as he is concerned.
Thatās because Chuck is, what we Americans call, a pussy. Always has been a sniveling politician who follows the money. Yet New York continues to elect the little fucker.
Dudes part of the domestic enemies club.
If you think Schumerās a pussy. then heās done his job well.
He exists for you to think heās a pussy. That is literally his purpose, and is literally the job his
employersowners pay him for.And he has a history of being a no-holds-barred fighter for what his owners want.
Yeah, he seems to fight for what matters (to the donors).
For context, Marjorie Taylor Greene has said more in Omarās defense than Schumer.
Sheās trying to make her own persona/platform/character, so sheās craving attention hardcore.
For sure, and donāt get me wrong, this is meant as a condemnation of Schumer, not praise for Greene.
I wouldnāt believe him if he said he stands in support of Omar, but he doesnāt even care enough to lie like Marge did. Schumer isnāt even pretending to give a shit about anything that isnāt Israel. Thereās no veil anymore. These old fucks are too lazy to even play politics in their job as a politician.
I think Schumer knows heās a dead man walking. He wonāt be reelected in '28, and he wonāt be Majority Leader if they take back the Senate. Jefferies (unfortunately) has a shot of hanging in; heās just as weak and feckless as Schumer, but he kept his caucus together on the shutdown, while Schumer caved. Thatās why even normie centrist Democrats want him out, and why he canāt even be bothered to pretend heās a political leader anymore.
Fuck Schmuck
Because heās a scumbag AIPAC shill, like most politicians in the US.
Nor will he. His job is to sit down and shut up.
Or help Trump. That is what he seems to do most often.
Good cop bad cop. Both cops get paid from the same source.
Omfg. People. Chuck Schumer is a conservative. ALL neoliberals are conservatives. Always have been. Thatās why weāre in fascism now.
There is no peaceful way out of conservatism. As long as they continue to exist, we will continue to be oppressed.
Chuck Schumer has consistently opposed the current admins use of ICE, he was the reason the DHS and then just the ICE were without funding until GOP budget reconciliation.
Get out there and vote because lives depend on it.
And then he gave up and gave the GOP absolutely everything it asked for. He was putting on a show that lasted a couple weeks. Your defense of Schumer is as dishonest as his āresistanceā to fascism.
Get out there and vote for progressives, not conservatives.
Incorrect, no DNC voted for the GOP budget reconciliation. Not even Fetterman. It passed 50-48 in the Senate and 215 to 214 in the house.
Itās not conservativism we are stuck with, itās liberalism. Republicans are the conservative side of liberalism
Itās important to keep in mind that the wealthy have spent hundreds of years fighting to make sure that people in the US believe the word āliberalā means the opposite of what it actually means.
So instead of downvoting your response because of what it says, people will downvote you because of what they THINK it says.
