Did...you seriously just sit there and say that "the way women are treated has improved so much"? Like with a total straight face and everything? While women are having to risk bleeding out or getting emergency hysterectomies bc of the abortion bans? Yeah, America is real great...
The 2008 crash was really bad, yeah, but that was almost 20 years ago. America is an incredible place to live and I've seen amazing changes in my lifetime, and know I'll see more. Just the way women are treated has improved so much. So no, the doomer tankie kids are not reacting to reality.

How dare you act like you care about that? You won't lift a finger to help stop the fascist uprising that has temporarily rolled back our rights (but not the entirety of progress since the 1970s.)

I mean it's almost like Dems just sat around & did fuck all to codify abortion (while fundraising on the rep threat to it), fucked around & found out on the Supreme Court, & then when casting about for who to blame for their losses decided that it must be leftists & not their own failures to deliver

This isn't about what Dems have done. The topic is how you and your friends are not helping.

Commies are ideologues who value the theory in their beautiful minds over real life practice, regardless of how many millions have to die as a result, eg Communist Russia and China. Five year plans and famine.

Besides the fact that no one is even talking about communism right now, the Cold War ended a long time ago, sweetheart. Do try to keep up.

I was commenting on a habit of mind common among communists, which you self proclaim as. This habit of mind resulted in very real and serious suffering in Russia and China with millions imprisoned and/or dying of hunger. Trump has already threatened to deport 11 million people and imprison his

What I hear is an intent to criminally investigate misconduct by people in government who committed serious crimes, violation of civil rights under color of law. Putting people in prison for political protests for years and the like. They DESERVE prison. Don’t pretend they don’t.

Are you defending the J6 rioters here?

Are you defending putting American citizens in prison for years w/o due process, or bail, or actual crimes as police allowed them in the building? Are you pretending a conservative insurrection took place where not one of them brought a gun?

Alfred I was literally there in their chat spaces lurking for research purposes, I watched them plan it and carry it out. I'm sorry. I believe you're a good person who doesn't believe they really did what they did, but I am telling you I saw them myself. I knew they were going to do it weeks before.

So repeating: Are you defending putting American citizens in prison for years w/o due process, or bail, or actual crimes as police allowed them in the building? Yes police in many cases allowed them in, got video. Y/N If you are, you are defending fascism.

They were there to "stop the steal," by which they meant the stealing of the presidency, by which they meant the certification of president-elect Biden. It's textbook insurrection.

And the police "let" them in because they were outnumbered and ougunned so they were ordered to fall back and protect the people's representatives instead of stopping the sacking of the building.

And you state BS excuses and refuse to answer the question. Not one firearm that was not in police possession was found in the capitol. Police were in no way whatever out gunned, and out numbered means jack.

So do you suppose the handful of Capitol Police with its superiority in sidearms should have started shooting the crowd of thousands? Would that have been the correct outcome?

As I stated in late December 2020 when I warned that J6 was going to happen, the correct response was for Pelosi to have used her authority to declare it a special security event and asked for a fence and the national guard. She explicitly refused, saying it would "give oxygen" to the MAGA threats.

Pelosi is no more in charge of Capitol security than Mitch McConnell. The decision not to fortify the Capitol or activate NG was made by the Capitol Police Board. Public testimony has made it clear neither Pelosi or McConnell were even aware of the Board's internal debate about security.
