Democratic politicians supported the proliferation of law enforcement, on public transportation, in schools, even inside homes, a move that has only served to increase the number of people killed by police. Democratic policies are what first empowered the police to become a violent force against the left and in deference to Trump. What Trump understands is that the glory, power, and social currency of the police serve as the backbone for authoritarianism in the United States. It is a militaristic, hyper masculine system which is impervious to change and maddeningly difficult to monitor.
This seems to be the next “talking point” after “genocide joe” - somehow Trump’s actions are the democrat’s fault!
Don’t fall for it. We need to unite and support the one viable alternative to Republican power expansion, not quibble and bicker over “leftist” vs “progressive” vs “liberal” vs “centrist” and how the Democrats aren’t pure or perfect enough.
You’re right. Democrats are absolutely perfect at all times and we should never question them no matter what they do.
Seems you have a reading problem Crab, I didn’t see them say that at all.
Is there any criticism of the democratic party you won’t dismiss as talking points, then?
Of course there is, they’re a bunch of milquetoast centrsts more interested helping themselves than regular people.
The other commenter never implied they were perfect as you interpreted it.

So why should we pretend otherwise?
I’m not here to debate a bad faith troll Crab. It’s Saturday morning and I have a bunch of stuff to do.
Try not to put words in other peoples mouths, you’re smarter than that and can argue without misrepresenting what they said.
Yeah stop talking about how biden supported genocide, the police state, attacks on refugees, etc.
We gotta stop the other team from doing the same thing!!!
(And then y’all blame the voters when you lose.)
Guessing you’re behind one of those <1%ers like Jill Stein?
Jill Stein is pretty cool though. I wouldn’t vote for her, but I think she has some great points to make. It’ll be interesting what the Green Party does now.
Jill Stein is pretty cool though.
No, she isn’t. She’s just another Putin puppet to help the far-Right.

Not really. They’re going to dump all resources into unwinnable national races where they can act as spoilers in FPTP elections while ignoring local elections and anywhere else where they could be effective in achieving their claimed goals. You know, like they have for decades.
