That headline again: "Big Baby Bitch Figures Out It Looks Worse If He Misses Debate"

Oh so that’s what BBB is.

He's already started with the rants against the network to create the excuse for him fucking this up. Everything that doesn't go his way is always someone else's fault. Most toddlers are more mature and accountable.

I see his strategy is to paint Harris as the radical left candidate. It’s a shame that the democrats are barely even left these days yet being painted as radical.

The whole "governing from the centre" thing is so pointless now. If they're going to call everything you do socialist, why bother trying to be moderate? If you're gonna do the time might as well do the crime.

To add to what ant said "the media" (billionair rags) will be relentless in attacking any real attempt at socialist concepts so the general population, "left" and right will be largely against it. Just see how they treated Bernie when he was looking to be doing really well before the primaries. The scumbags at so-called "left biased" MSNBC were making up shit about Bernie having "people like them" executed.

Because they want corporate donor money.

We live in a mammocracy.

It's really fucking aggravating because we have as many "far left" in government as you can count on like one hand yet these chucklefucks get to go full steam rightward with all the magoos literally in positions of power...

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

What's sad to me is that she's about as far left a candidate as the Democrats have had in a long time and she would probably rate as center right at best in Europe.

Criminals are in no position to make demands.

Well, they have a lot of say in writing all of our policies.

They also have a great deal of influence on all politicians, those with power, those with influence.

Lobbying is legal bribery.

This is classic dementia, anger, fearful, and forgetting everything. The gop needs to pull this turd.

Any chance of a non Xitter link?
