US has already stopped investing in technology education (even people as young as 20 years old that walk in the shop here show no indication of technology education)

Democracy does die in darkness in part due to loss of progress in technology

after all other options are exhausted civil disobedience is the only thing left

examples would include handing about abortion pills in illegal states

legal standing is lots of money

some of us know that the Democrats and Republicans are at fault because it is us that are directly dealing with fallout from both parties

just wait until the shit that hit the fan finally makes it onto you sitting further out

and no not all of us had the option to get a backrow seat further away from the fan

When Democrats and Republicans work together to increase national fracking and oil production, protect polluting industries, not support living wages, gut education standards, not support universal healthcare, increase police funding it equals a stupider, shittier people that vote for the donor class puppets

you forgot the money spent on Fortnite

lived in both blue and red states with not much difference

for example, Colorado has swerved right making homelessness illegal and restricting the cannabis market and setting pay below living wages just like red states only the blue states have different wording and policies to achieve the same thing such as overfunding the police

blue and red being different is just a fantasy made up by the donors to get voters into football politics my team is better kind of thing

keeps people divisive and unable to truly realize and solve the problem which keeps the donors rich

great article that really sums up what the fuck happened in this election

The US economy is currently experiencing strong growth, low unemployment, and rising wages - the “stuff of economists’ dreams.” However, this macroeconomic success has not translated into broad prosperity. Beneath the surface, many workers are struggling with rising costs of living, debt, and declining real wages, especially for low-income households. While the top income brackets thrive, the bottom 40% now account for just 20% of all spending, leading to a deeply unequal and unstable economic recovery. This disconnect between headline economic indicators and the lived experiences of many Americans led to discontent that was reflected in the 2024 election, with voters citing the economy and immigration as key factors. The Democratic Party’s focus on macroeconomic performance failed to address the deeper social and economic crises faced by working-class voters, including inflation, job insecurity, and rising costs. The left must confront these issues head-on, rather than dismissing them or resorting to nostalgic historical analogies. Rebuilding a broad and solidaristic left politics will require grappling with the contradictions within the right’s fragile coalition, as well as the ways that racism, misogyny, nativism, and other forms of oppression intersect with economic precarity. It is not enough to simply call for “bread and butter” policies; the left must work to mobilize people on different ideological terrain, forging a culture of solidarity that can challenge the uneven terrain of contemporary capitalism.

Harris did not even need a plan the way she started

all she had to do was acknowledge that yes there are issues and talk about them publicly

just like at the DNC instead of taking the win she was given others were let on the stage to talk that put a lot of fire out of her campaign

Harris could have won by a landslide with all that she was given and the people that initially supported her, but she fumbled so bad it feels intentional

her plan involved helping people get a home loan with no plans to raise the minimum wage

what did Harris say she was going to bring to table that would attract any voters other than high middle and above class?

how do you move right away? where do they go? how do they pay for the astronomically high rent + deposit? how do secure a job first? homelessness is illegal so where do you sleep during the transitional move? how does a blue state help when the gentrified state does not support all citizens?

also, US citizens have been getting pulled over if their skin is the right tan to look like they are from south of the border been a huge issue for a while now and been a scary thing before this election

Democrats always have a scapegoat to explain the bad performance away too

the donors of the Democrats/Republicans are doing a good job keeping the citizens divided and pointing fingers at each other

might as well just have a big gala for the two parties so the donors could choose the next puppet in style complete with celebrities

lots of denial, nicotine, and THC

not a fix but will definitely smooth some of the rough edges out a tiny bit

if all else fails my grandfather says to run in circles screaming and shouting

then welcome to 1930s Germany

if enough people such as doctors go against a regime it falls but if enough people get scared enough the regime stands tall

when a country gets to the point the US is now the only people left defending democracy are people like these doctors who on the front line

time to nut up or shut up

this is where democracy’s final gasps happen before the death knell not at the poles or kangaroo courts or on some pulpit

when the only thing standing between freedom are a person’s ability to act or not the choice should be clear

fuck the jackboots and do the job that took oath for or relinquish your position to shine boots so someone who does have the courage to hold the line can

fuck Harris and the Democrats for not living up to the hype of them being on the side of the citizens

Republicans and Democrats are the same party just politicians up for auction to the highest bidder

by design

the US is not wanting to pay for social services

all just tax breaks for megacorps
