    People from other countries scared of alt right rising there due to Trump

    lmao I live in one of those countries and our fascists are 100% home grown, thank you very much. Amerikkkan exceptionalism at its absolute worst, we’ve had this shit here way before Trump was anything more than a weirdo celebrity

    Also Bidens policy is already brutalizing leftists lol

    These people can never fail. Only the left can fail by not supporting Genocide Joe, who demands law and order as state thugs beat up the protestors. Every time his polls slip, he acts more like Trump. Trump supporters will never support him and I will never support someone that tries to make them happy.

      And the wild thing remains - it’s always our fault. Never the Dems for being wildly unpopular. Never dem voters for failing to mobilize their own people. And never ever anyone’s fault for failing to do anything to mobilize the vast number of American non voters. And, of course, it’s never the gop’s fault.

      It’s us. It’s always us.

    in this cartoon the liberals decide to cower while the fascists purge their staunchest opposition… so yeah, checks out

    even in their wildest fantasies they cant imagine themselves stepping up and fighting for anything

    People of other countries scared of trump

    Biden is bombing yemen, escalating the Strait Crisis, worsen the situation in Korea to the point both govs dont want reunification anymore, and is still continuing the blockade of cuba, trump will just continue biden’s policy

    Ukraine is currently losing to Russia and if biden wins they will still continue to lose

    and for palestinians Biden is already sending 1 billion dollars to Isntreal so trump will do the same he just wont lie about trying to negotiate a cease fire.

    Libs will say anything and support genocide just so people vote for their favorite fascist

        yea during trump’s presidency it was the 2018 USA-DPRK summit that led to a De-escalation between both korean govs and the USA, which led to a summit between both koreas and then another USA-DPRK one in vietnam 2019, and then one with all 3 in the DMZ later that year

        the talks didnt led to much, i think most santions stood in place, the DPRK said later that trump only did them as a political move, but if we believe what Moon Chung-in who was the Special Advisor for the then president of the ROK the talks mostly failed due to John Bolton and allies that wanted a hard disarmament followin the libyan model which the DPRK diplomats where fully against

  • as ever, the analysis that libs find settler-colonial genocide acceptable (Churchill) as long as it’s not happening inside the imperial core (Hitler) to people that look like them, cuts through their tortured pseudo-ethical posturing like a laser.

    Yeah when Trump wins, anyone left of MTG will be treated like the Palestinians are treated now. You guys don’t understand this year is the endgame for the US. You guys will too be busy fleeing from Trump’s Schutzstaffel to even think for a second about Gaza. It’s easy: If Trump wins, the world will fall into total chaos and Gaza will be everywhere, nobody will care about them anymore. If Biden wins, we’ll still have at least an opportunity to improve their situation.

    There is absolutely no way they believe this, is there? Liberals have become 2008 era conservatives who thought Obama would put them in FEMA camps. The federal government is far too lazy and inept to do anything like that domestically. Also have these liberals not seen the police brutality on college campuses over the past few weeks? The American SS is already here, it’s the NYPD.

    Not to mention how dismissive this is of Palestinians. They’re being carpet bombed right now. Imagine an American saying we’re worried of the same thing happening to us. It’s ludicrous.

    And if liberals truly worry about this, that Trump will create apartheid and begin slaughtering people domestically en masse (more than people already are killed through poverty and police brutality). The response shouldn’t be to vote for Biden, it should be a call to dismantle the entire American state apparatus because it shouldn’t exist

      There is absolutely no way they believe this, is there?

      If they believed it was true, then they should be organizing insurgents and guerillas to fight the feds like resistance fighters in countries occupied by germany in WW2. The fact that they clearly have no actual resistance plan means they either don’t believe that Trump is as bad as they claim or they plan on doing nothing as he sets up death camps, much like how they’re not doing anything about the camps on the Mexican border right now

      plus even if Biden wins they must believe the next republican will do this too, right? forever and ever.

      do they just expect democrats to win every single time? no such thing has ever happened in history and if it does then they get a one-party state.

      and their precious “democracy” (their conception of it) is destroyed anyways.

      You guys don’t understand this year is the endgame for the US.

      “You guys don’t understand that joe biden is basically tony stark in this infinity war”

      Looking forward to being told how 2028 is the endgame and then how 2032 is the endgame

    Certain portions of the left would rather spit in their own eye for unrealistic principles, even if it means that a worse alternative is the result.

    Stopping a genocide is a unrealistic principle you guys

      and no, trump couldn’t harvest them as mussolini did (cause he is less erudite). but billionaires buying teams of “beat those guys up”, coupled with increased union activity, astonishing wealth inequality, and petit bourgeoisie looking not so hot (but not too bad yet) is kinda exactly the cocktail for fascism (on low simmer, as both union activities are kinda low and amazon haven’t started fucking bar owners and car dealers)

    you’ve got to admit it’s kind of amazing to watch these libs try to walk the tightrope to appear to be the most radical while just taking in the minimum quantity of information outside their shared fantasies

    Liberals have been indoctrinated out of object permanence. This is why they cannot fathom a political project beyond the next election cycle and why they are easily led around by these scare tactics.

    Kill the liberal inside of you!

      I think it’s honestly the case that libs think Americans have democracy because they can cast a vote. The content is irrelevant. You can go to a polling place and vote this democracy. Pay no heed to literally anything else.

      Of course only in America does that count. China is evil compoudlist even though they can cast ballots.

    it’s cute they think it’s LEGISLATION that will do this and not just like the regular old paramilitary state sanctioned violence that will actually happen

    like they think trump is gonna pass some “kill the leftists” bill? I guess? lol
