  • I'm sure the Republicans NEVER contact their Democratic representatives to complain or make their voices heard, so yeah, you shouldn't contact your Republican representatives. Never make your voice heard, what's the point right it's useless we are all so powerless oh god I give up you are all right downvote me we have no power THEY WIN!!

  • Oh right, because you did, all the other lemmings did as well, right? Please, spare me your righteous indignation. You actually think ALL the people constantly complaining how the system is rigged there's nothing that can be done, and all the BOTH SIDES SAME arguments seen in the majority of comments here, you think that these indicate lemmy is full of people who actively engage with their representatives? lol

    See all the other replies to my comment to see examples of the thought processes i am referring to, of people who dont contact their reps.

  • Are you kidding? Are you telling me you had no idea they were holding votes constantly to reopen the government?? They held at least 14 votes my man. Each and every vote was the potential for "a deal". Clearly you never reached out to your representatives at least once during those 14 votes.

    Thanks for highlighting my point.

  • Hey, crazy question for any lemmings here whose Senator was one of the 8 who voted to end the shutdown:

    Did ANY of you email your senator and tell them you fully support the shutdown and urge them to never give in until the health care provision was fixed?

    Everyone in here bitching about Senators taking money, or both parties being the same, all the typical brain dead bullshit the keyboard politicos blather, did ANY of you contact your Senators and make your voice heard?

    Don't bother replying. We all know the answer.

    EDIT: Keep the downvotes coming, believers of our weakness! You've convinced me, we are all powerless!! Let's just complain all day in lemmy comments how the system is rigged and we have no power, downvote me if you agree! LONG LIVE APATHY! WE ARE THE WEAK AND POWERLESS!

  • Yup, the Republican party allowed Trump to go after the nomination, and his Republican opponents in the primaries never brought Jan 6 up for the disgusting act it was. Instead they all protected Trump by repeating the Big Lie.

    Imagine Fox News right now, if Jan 6 had been Democrats and Obama. Seriously, they would be screaming for the dismantling of the Democratic party.

    And that's the difference, the Left has NOTHING like Fox News and Newsmax, MSNBC doesn't even get CLOSE.

  • I think that plenty of people who voted for Trump would be fine voting for a woman president

    I'm sorry, but this is based on what, exactly? I know you didn't base it on historical data. Trump won against Hillary Clinton, a woman, lost against Joe Biden, a man, then won against Kamala Harris, a woman.

    2016 turnout for Clinton/Trump: 128,837,949

    2020 turnout for Biden/Trump: 155,507,476

    2024 turnout for Harris/Trump: 152,319,643

    3,187,833 fewer people turned out for the Harris/Trump election.

  • People don't understand that you need more than hardcore Democrats, you need other groups like Christian swing voters to get elected President.

    Christians do not allow woman to be elected to any leadership roles in the Church, because they blame women for the downfall of mankind in the Garden of Eden.

    If they won't let a woman lead the church, why would anyone think they would elect a woman to lead the government and country?

  • What a weird hill to stand on. Hey, watcha think about this image I found on Facebook by searching Google for "Never Surrender".

    What do you think these dudes will "never surrender" as they raid minority neighborhoods? Think they mean THE FATHERLAND or something?

  • Really, that's what you're gonna go with, his mom tagged his helmet with his initials so he doesn't lose it at Camp Fascism this winter?

    That ICE agents, notorious for hiding their faces and identities, are now leaving clues on their helmets as to who they are for the Scooby gang to solve?

    These dudes get boners hurting brown-skinned people in front of their families, they want to look frightening. It's more than likely some slogan, like NEVER SURRENDER, with a lightning bolt because yeah, he saw it on some Nazi gear and thought it looked tough AF. Oooh, he didn't flatten the tops and bottoms!! Like he's effing Michaelangelo or something. Like these dudes are going to draw anything OTHER than lightning bolts, lol.

  • Aren't you too busy 'fucking all those conservative wives' who 'need a real man'? From the unintelligent way you advocate for violence, to the incel way you talk about women, I'd almost think you were MAGA posting here in an attempt to make progressives look bad.

  • Right, Bernie would have come in and what, magically persuaded congressional Republicans to support all his programs and initiatives?

    You probably don't even realize that 90% of Obama and Biden's perceived failures in office were due to massive opposition by elected Republicans.

    Like, ObamaCare was originally supposed to have a single-payer public option, but they couldn't get enough enough votes to pass it.

    But you are talking like Bernie would have come in and what, Jedi Mind Tricked the Republicans into voting for single payer?? Incredible.
