Summary
Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez condemned Donald Trump and Elon Musk at a packed Arizona rally, accusing them of harming working-class Americans and promoting oligarchy.
Sanders denounced corporate CEOs as “major criminals” exploiting workers, while Ocasio-Cortez called for stronger Democratic leadership.
Rallygoers urged Ocasio-Cortez to challenge Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer after he supported a Republican funding bill.
The rally, part of Sanders’ “Stop Oligarchy” tour, follows criticism of the Democratic Party’s weak response to Trump’s agenda and features further events in Colorado and Arizona.
So what are you going to do about it? Because up here right now I personally am having to do shit like teach my parents and wife how to shoot guns, having to hoard canned goods and encourage others to do the same, having to comfort my elderly grandmother who is scared as shit about this and letting her know I have plans to protect her in the event of an American invasion. Because of your country. And I’m really fucking angry about it.
Quit bitching and do something about it. Do more.
I’m a trans woman living in Texas. How do you think I feel? No one’s having a good time right now, buddy. I fully anticipate that I will be dead or in a concentration camp within one or two years because, as of right now, I have no way to escape and I’m still working on trying to find groups to organize with.
As far as I’m concerned, my days are numbered.
I have no future.
At least there’s a chance that they’ll get distracted by some shiny new thing and won’t invade Canada.
No one’s having a good time right now.
I’m also Canadian and I am also mad. I’m buying a gun and learning to shoot it. I’m working on custom fpv drones in my free time. I’m using my chemistry degree to com up with potential explosives. This is not me. I wanted to have a life heavy involved in tech l, but I can’t do that anymore.
So many children have been sacrificed for their second amendment rights and now just silence. Absolutely disgusting.
The destruction of teslas is pretty much the Boston tea party part 2 electric boogaloo. Seems like most people would let the British fuck them up forever if they were alive back then.
Seriously. Americans are all up about their fucking gun rights to prevent government tyranny and look at what’s happening.
Preach brother (or sister). I’m 100% with you.
On the bright side, they’ve got lots of guns and ammo for us to ‘liberate’ from them if they ever decide to invade us… I’m planning on making Che Guevara proud, lol
