In this thread, let's pretend to be the "progressive but not scary" Lemmy liberals that Lemmy liberals apparently expected to find here until they were shocked that there's some leftists on Hexbear.

I'll start.
It's tragic how many terrible things that President "Smokin' Diamond" Joe Biden has had to allow to pass because there simply isn't enough of a majority to overcome GOP opposition to everything. If only there were some common-sense bills could be passed, with bipartisan support, then maybe we could remember that this country is already great, mend the divide, and get back on track.

(FUCK. That hurt to write, including the "the entire world is Burgerland" presumptive delivery. I need a shower.) 
You're viewing a single thread.
This primary season it's critical to ensure that any candidate you vote for is pro-NATO.
Some of the more tankie members of the progressive caucus may not be openly pro-NATO, so make sure you do your research in case you need to vote for a real American in these districts.
Remember that it's critical to criticize, but don't call for reform of, the Supreme Court.
If we lose ourselves to radical positions like court expansion imagine if it's ever used against us in the future.
I myself am looking forward to some scathing dissents
The only thing that shines brighter than KBJ's dissents is the institution that makes them possible.
The only way to defeat fascism is at the ballot box. Republicans won't be able to sustain this long term, so long as we don't push for radical progressive policies (like healthcare entitlements or climate reform) we won't lose the critical white suburban voters who delivered us Joe Biden in 2020.
The most important thing we can do is to remind true-blooded Americans that no one slowed the rate of middle and lower class spending power decline as quickly as Joe Biden. (Sanity side note- if you're ever in a position where you're forced to use the second derivative of spending power as a talking point it's already over)
It's time to highlight leaders cut from the same cloth. It's time to rally behind Buttigieg 2028.
I think it's critical for progressives to join DSA in order to organize and push back against tankies in their ranks.
As a progressive, it disgusts me to see how many Bernie bros didn't elevate Hillary in the Midwest.
Many people say campaigns are a marathon, not a sprint, but really it's a relay race and we should have picked up the baton and brought her over the finish line there by knocking on every door in the region.
I am in awe. You might singlehandedly encourage Tommy to stop needing drinky.
Pod can't Save America, but we can.
You're giving me HIGH HIGH HOPES
thanks I have brain damage now
I cannot in good conscience vote for Die Linke because of their anti-NATO stance. They need to kick out the Stasi Opas if they want my vote.
