It is incredibly infuriating to see how DSA and anti establishment people are just blatantly anti black, they're just not openly saying slurs at this point. Like excuse you, these people think that people like my neighbors, my family friends are low info voters? This is for example one reason i saw Tlaib get dragged for saying she represented Detroit because she's anti establishment in a city thats 70 something percent Black, and in the surrounding Metro is 20 something percent Black AT MINIMUM. Detroit's central areas is rebounding back and growing, no small part thanks to it's Black Residents. "Democratic Tea Party" "Low info voters". Phe

Antisemitism/anti-Blackness are two sides of the white supremacist coin. The majority of Arabs in Dearnborn aligned with white supremacy in 2024 and I haven't seen any self-reflection coming from that area beyond ping-ponging between "Gaza is speaking now, bitch!/Actually, we totally voted for Holocaust Harris stop blaming us we're just smol beans"

Leftists continuously got angry whenever anyone tried confronting the role Uncommitted played in 2024 head on (their biggest sin was depressing voter turnout in a purple state in the most important election of our lives). But no one has forgotten and Uncommitted's legacy is going to haunt them for years.

Everybody is like “Oh, JD Vance is worse!” yes, his stated political positions are worse. The thing is, JD Vance is a fucking pussy with no backbone. Trump would nuke the entire world to prove himself right, JD Vance has no firm convictions about anything and no one fears him because he is a little bitch. Trump, we do not know what he will do. JD Vance, we know consistently he is a spineless, useless little twerp.

The other thing about Trump is that Trump has a following. There are people who love him, who are absolutely die-hard MAGA Trump-can-do-no-wrong believers. That's a large part of why Trump has such a hold on the Republican party: if he aims his mob at a particular politician, chances are they will get primaried by a MAGA wingnut and lose their seat. The ones who had strong principles didn't survive Trump's first term; the ones left have all proven they will kiss his ass to keep his followers voting for them.

Vance does not have that. He has no diehard followers. The MAGA people are Trump fans, not Vance fans or even Republican Party fans. If Trump had a heart attack and died tomorrow, the shambling horror that is the Republican party would start devouring itself. Vance would not be able to keep them together and focused.

"Accusations of rape ruin men's lives and careers."

You only have to look at how many footballers who have rape accusations against them that happily represent their countries in huge tournaments like the World Cup without anyone really giving a shit to see what bollocks that is.

Women are rarely taken seriously, rarely believed, rarely stood up for, especially when their abusers are rich and famous.

[queer-scots-geordie-dyke]

2026 FIFA World Cup players who’ve been accused of rape and/or physical abuse:

Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal), Achraf Hakimi (Morocco), Thomas Partey (Ghana), Gonzalo Montiel (Argentina), Thiago Almada (Argentina), Junya Ito (Japan), Kaishu Sano (Japan), Ryan Mendes (Cabo Verde).

At least one of these men, Thomas Partey, is currently actively awaiting criminal trial on seven charges of rape and sexual assault but was still able to play at one of the largest sporting events in the world.

Conor McGregor making his return to UFC as well. It's so disgusting that they allow him there

Racism against Indians is actually a little insane when you consider how widespread it is even among liberals and leftists . Even people who consider themselves to be progressive will laugh at call center or tech support jokes. All scammers are inherently indian. It’s okay to laugh at jokes making fun of Indians for their feelings towards animals or how they drive. India is inherently backwards and dirty so it’s okay to make jokes about getting food poisoning from even looking at indian food

[emeraldmercury]

Don't forget how the leftist flavor of Indian racism has them calling us fascists and Nazis for... *checks notes* not keeling over and dying every time there's a terrorist attack against us

Fuck You Graham Platner

and fuck every single person who endorsed that Totemkopf tattooed wearing Neo Nazi in the first place

[cheaphalloweencostume]

“be gay do crime! but sex is yucky and crime is wrong!” ass website

[pokekmonsters]

You know this is how it went down

[afurioushawk]

Zoomers are making me appreciate my generation (millenial) we might be cringe, but at least we're honest and sincere and not nazi tattoo excusers.

I mean, Platner was a Millennial, and between him, Jay Dee, and George Santos, we haven't been sending our best. But as an electorate voting bloc, we're still less crazy than Zoomers overall.

Lauren Underwood wipes the floor with all of them.

Karoline Leavitt meanwhile is on the cusp of millennial and Z and she looks about 20 older than she actually is.

You know when it comes to Graham Platner I’m glad that a lot of women on the left are finally waking up to how blatantly misogynistic a lot of leftist men truly are. They’re seeing the way these men are talking about Platner’s accuser: calling her a liar, calling her a “Zionist plant”, saying that she was asking for it, and a lot of women are rightfully horrified and fed up.

But I also think a lot of these women need to ask themselves a simple question: why were you ok with them doing this to Israeli women? When Hasan Piker said that he “didn’t care” if women were raped on Oct 7th, when they called Israeli women who came forward about their assaults liars, when they mocked the suffering of the hostages and said that Hamas “treated them well”, when they said they deserved it, when they joked that they were “too ugly to be raped”, where was your outrage over that behavior then? Why were you silent when it was Israeli women, and why did you think it would stop there?

What starts with Jews never ends with Jews.

[kizunatallis]

At this point, I'd say the main difference between left wing misogyny and right wing misogyny is that the right wingers are more honest and upfront about their sexism.

[lostxanadu]

i hope everyone who's gone full nazi over the past 3 years is haunted by the extensive screenshot record of their antisemitism for the rest of their lives. i hope 20 years from now one of these sad sacks of shit is trying to get a job and every hiring manager they talk to looks them up, sees years' worth of harassment of jews and justification/downplaying of antisemitic violence, and shreds their application on the spot

[kizunatallis]

Don't forget their antiblackness, misogyny, and glorification of violence.

So are there any investigative journalists who feel mildly inclined to find proof of life for McConnell or are we just not even pretending to care about holding the GOP accountable anymore
