  1. Couldn't agree more. I'm not ageist, I understand many people stay sharp until a very late age, but I believe it's important and valid to have age and term limits for all publicly elected positions.

  2.  @WasTheGrinkThereThough  indeed. They have a very honed playbook. They are very good at what they do, which is managing public perception. PR for dumb (or at least not very questioning people), and easily triggered reactionaries. I mean, that's the whole Right's strategy since pretty much forever and it seems to work very well for them. Why fix what ain't broke??

  5. What's the alternative to a majority govt??? I live in the US so I only know two mainstream parties who like to portray themselves as polar opposites but in reality are very much the same with the Democrats being overall less odious people and those who occasionally will arrive to vote for something somewhat positive for the average person, but they are very neoliberal, and the Republicans barely try to hide anymore that they are fascists, rank opportunists, and only there to pass tax cuts for the very rich and oppose anything the Democrats try to pass.

  6. Yes indeed. I mean we live in an industrial banana republic. No exaggeration. The gov from the metro city level to state to federal is for the elites and big business, and runs on open graft. These assholes can use euphemisms all they want, but let's call it what it is- it is bribery and GRAFT, plain and simple.

  7.  @fredbmurphy  They're satanic monsters escaped from hell. This poor man could have been ANY FUCKING ONE OF US. Watch. Even tho it's the same PD as Derek Chauvin (NO SURPRISE), they won't be punished. The entire corrupt system swarms to protect any 🐖 accused of a crime. US 🐷s are PROTECTED by an evil hypocritical system that will DESTROY any one of us for the exact same crime. They are PROTECTED from the moment they wake up in the morning to the moment their psychopath asses hit the sheets at night, in the face of any crime. Less than 1% of all accused cops will EVER do any jail time. Makes me wonder how politicians in both worthless parties who have willingly done their immoral part to make it this way can look at themselves anymore. American 🐷 are truly above the law in virtually every case regardless of the crime. That's the US for you. Yes, they got Derek Chauvin, but after how much outcry??????? People have lives to lead. We can't have a worldwide uprising every time another evil 🐷 kills or violates someone's rights.

  11.  @6789uiop  well the big corps want total unfettered domination, and seeding every level of so-called govt with it's faithful shills is how they get there. They got the SCOTUS, the GOP and a good part of the corpDems and probably most of governorships and as many state assemblies- so for now they have most of the govt on their side. The SCOTUS with C.U. was just their crowning achievement. In time this can be undone but I think it's going to take a while.

As much as I would hate to lose one of the few genuine good sitting members when they still have a good mind and value system to offer, I could accept that if that's the price of getting the rest of these wrthless ultra-wealthy corrupt af harmful-status-quo loving ancient douchebags out of there.

Poverty and evil mass incarceration which could change overnight were people of conscience to take over the Assembly. That's what I'm working on. I plan to go out for office by 2030. Course I can't do it alone so- I feel like I need a more comprehensive plan than that- which is what I'm working on now.

  23. Minors should never be tried as adults- they aren't adults! I think it's absolutely wrong to ever charge minors as adults. There's a reason a seperate juvenile justice system exists! A very good one, and it shouldn't be legal to just toss it over at yet another "king judge's" whim. This was a heinous crime but he's obviously deeply disturbed. He should be charged as a youth, as that is what he is, for the crimes he committed. This prosector is just another opportunitistic b7tczh looking to make her bones and career on this case. She cares nothing for the victims, she just figures if she goes way over the top and throws cartoonishly excessive charges at everyone, she'll look like a real justice warrior and that will put her in line for the state's AG position. I guarantee it. That's how these people work. It's just a game to 99.3% of them; they don't care about victims, they care about how easily they can capitalize on a case to their benefit and how many charges they can make stick, whether they are deserved or not. I have nothing but utter contempt and in certain cases outright hatred for the entire American prosecutorial class- and that's Bec I'm old enough to know who they really are; and in my bitter and cynical opinion most of them are opportunistic, and even sociopathic trash. As far as this young shooter, either the school, the parents, or both should have done better in this situation. I don't understand why the school didn't give him a non-disciplinary suspension for the day and also search his bag or request a security guard or officer to do so??? It's always better to be safe than sorry, esp in the age of school shootings! Of course the parents were outrageously negligent to buy their young teenaged son a goddamn firearm, but I'm not ready to say they knew he was troubled. Youth are very good at hiding things from their parents they don't want them to know. I'm not ready to condemn them as monsters just yet, deploringly irresponsible, yes- but also perhaps simply naive and tragically stubborn, in not wanting to believe anything was wrong with their precious baby. They wouldn't be the first parents to react that way. As for running, I doubt they planned to leave the country, but probably were just in a panic and were desperate. Overnight, their entire world was thrown into chaos. They very likely didn't think or know there was anything wrong with their son, and may not even have known he took the gun to school. Until I hear more I'm going to assume this is true. They wouldn't be the first parents to be more oblivious than they should be. Until I hear more, I'm going to assume the news that their son was involved in a mass shooting was just as much a shock to them as anyone else. I imagine they felt an terrible horror at the news. I can understand why someone might temporarily flee under those circumstances. I doubt they ever had intentions to go far or disappear for long. They probably just wanted somewhere to go to try to process all the madness that just happened. They made mistakes to be sure, but I'm sure they loved their son. I'm sure they had no intentions of taking off forever and leaving him to face his court case alone. Anyway- it's another heartbreaking tragedy all around. But this DA is being a predatory bi7tzch IMO and soaking this up for all it's worth, portraying herself as a heartbroken party with a rending heart for all the victims. I call mthfkg BS on that. A terrorism charge and adult characterization in this situation is bogus and pure positional opportunism by her, which is definitely not coming from any sincere desire to help the survivors heal. I feel the same about the parents' charges. Yes they were idiots and bought him his own gun- but I find it hard to believe they thought he would bring it school. It's more logical they just assumed he would behave himself and be using it at home when they were around. I doubt they imagined for a second he had the gun with him when they were called into the meeting in the counselors office- but they most definitely should have consented to or performed a search of his bag. If they were so sure, what would be their objection to getting confirmation?? So yes, there they were negligent and willfully didn't take the school's concern seriously. But that is not the same as involuntary manslaughter. So until I hear anything else damning, for now I'm not with those who feel that is a fair charge, because its just not supported, in my view. Negligence of some sort- sure. But not any kind of manslaughter charge. I honestly believe they don't deserve it, as tragic as this incident was.

I'm not saying don't be tough on her, but we have to keep the big picture in our sights. Also life experience and job experience counts for a lot and she doesn't have much of either yet. Politics in the US are a joke and she's surrounded by 99% either thugs or paid for operators. Dealing with those politician crazies and scumbags on the Hill takes a particular form of skill and toughness that I imagine she's still learning.

  32. It's a disgusting crime against humanity that something so beneficial and useful was ever criminalized in the first place!!! The time to get the vile Govt out of our private lives and the business of private drug use was 50 fucking years ago! The ONLY classifications of actions that should be considered criminal are derivations if violence or fraud. Nothing else!! Other countries have finally stopped the fascism and decrimmed weed. They've had a cascade of positive advancements as a result. Making weed legal just gets the evil State off your back so one can medicate safely or enjoy a good high without looking over their shoulder govt Gestapo. And it's medicinal value for 100s of negative symptoms or conditions is beyond dispute. Cannabis has been a treater and healer for 1000s of years, only modern-day evil govt's have denied this and crafted 80 years of insane lies and propaganda around it. These are known facts. Cannabis is nothing but a fun and medicinal PLANT. A PLANT!!!! The fact that the US govt demons have served to demonize it and use it as an excuse for destroying or deeply damaging 100s of 1000s of wonderful people's lives is one of the most EVIL things this US govt cabal has done since WW2 (though it has stiff competition) and is STILL doing!! THIS MOVE BY BIDEN AIN'T GODDAMN SHIT AND WONT DO JACK SHIT FOR HARDLY ANYBODY!! IT FREES NOT ONE UNJUSTLY- IMPRISONED CITIZEN FROM JAIL. THIS IS TEXTBOOK FILTHY BIDEN, DOING WHAT HE AND THE ROTTEN CORPORATE DEMS ALWAYS DO- THROWING FRACTIONAL CRUMB-SIZE TOKENS AT US AT THE LAST MINUTE IN ATTEMPT TO GET THE DUMMIES AND THE CONFUSED TO VOTE FOR MORE DEMOCRAT SHITSTAINS IN THE MIDTERMS. ITS A DESPERATE CALLOW STRATEGY, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING MORE. ITS NET IMPACT WILL BE NEXT TO ZERO. I say this from the Left. The GOP is of course trash too- they both are. They're two virtually identical corporate parties who serve the same masters in the exact same way. Any differences are skin deep and usually just put on for the camera. Both are utterly worthless and beyond saving. Biden is a serious filthy scumbag that was one of the CHIEF architects of modern-day US domestic fascism, which employs mass incarceration and very- long- term incarceration for 100s of 1000s of nonviolent "offenders" as part of a well-calibrated subjugation campaign. Biden and all his other sociopath contemporaries can rot in HELL as far as I'm concerned. Only a true revolution or a coordinated Left Unity third-party takeover, or at least coordinated attack, can have a hope of rejecting these filthy fascist Red-Blue mainstream party scumbags once and for all.

  36.  @mckenzie.latham91  welp then I'm glad for all the "non-realists" who refuse to settle for just a little less shit on a stick from the system as some version of elite interests- approved neoliberal-tainted sad and flaccid hollowed out end goal. Our end goals must be much MUCH bigger and better than that. Regardless of how long it takes to achieve, the desired aim must be broad and demanded with militancy and absolutely NO APOLOGIES. All basic material needs covered by govt programs??? Check. More direct democracy at every level??? Check. A complete system of reparations and official apologies as part of an ongoing fundamental justice project for native peoples (and in our case, Black persons also)?? Check. Total reform of the immigration system?? Check. A complete reformation of the justice and prison system??? (Probably much more an issue here than there) CHECK. Empowering Labor and blunting large corporations' power??? Ending political banana republicanism and a literal open graft system at all levels (probably more a US issue)??? Check. It won't happen overnight I understand but that's why I'm looking farther down the line and then trying to ask myself what exactly do I need to do to bring that day closer? How can we get more far Leftists elected at local and state levels?? And so on. Our long-term vision must be bold and uncompromising. In the short-term I understand certain calculations and trade-offs have to be made, that's ok so long as we (people like me who identify as Socialists), keep the broader picture and our end goals firmly in sight.

  38. @The Majority Speaks indeed but when you have a tiny little cabal who's making major decisions for the whole country, and nobody on it (maybe sotormeyer) is halfway "progressive", where there a few weak kinda-liberals, and at least five big business shills, this is what we get. I'm ready for the SCOTUS to disappear too but I guess that's not readily forthcoming 😒

  39.  @6789uiop  I pretty much focus on only alternative sources now.

  57.  @mehoo8    I think most take campaign funding from the big interests to win their rep or Senate election and have already decided which side their bread is buttered on and go in knowing who they plan to put first and foremost over anyone or anything else. You know, the donors. Most of the Dems are controlled by their big money donors from at least the state level up (ofc the GOP are they have no principles so no point in even considering them) and of course that's why next to nothing positive for the common person ever gets done. But yeah I mean, some of them get corrupted after they get there but I think most show up with their bought and paid for agenda well in hand and ready to go the moment they show up.

  58.  @JohnHoffman65  age limits are not a panacea and I'm not personally ageist at all. Experience is important. There are good people who are sharp until their last days and it's a shame to lose them (like Bernie) if a new rule was passed. But I see it as a good measure to help prevent entrenchment of corruption or outdated views in public management aka govt. All non-progessive Dems have done very limited measures for the environment or the common person. I don't trust nor want traditional Dems, I want hardcore socialists or in lieu of that the furthest Leftists I can find. If you think I've overlooked something btw tell me and I'll take a closer look, but in general that is what I see.
    1
  59.  @JohnHoffman65  Sure. I mean we're basically of similar values and that's what's important. I understand that its harder for the older generation to get around lifelong govt propaganda and the creating of knee-jerk trigger words by the special interests. That's why it's up to the rest of us who came after, and those of any age who have been deprogrammed, who have positive public agendas to contribute, to come forward and aggressively demonstrate why all of that was a not-so-clever long-term con job by the elites who would do and say anything to protect imperialistic corporate profit. The new social order can't be based on that kind of destructive ideology. Social welfare and ecological conservation are the humanistic values that our group believes in and that's what we'll be fighting for. The multinationals and the .01% (or 1% to be more general) can get in the back of the bus or go f___ themselves, their choice. I mean all they're bringing is ruin AND we're sick of it. I'm not saying they can or will magically up and disappear but a Leftist govt can and WILL strictly limit their expansion and conduct and hold them responsible for any fraud of environmental crimes they commit. Granted it will be hard to go from a govt of, by and FOR the big chain corps in the USA to anything remotely Leftist, but anything's possible and we have to try. Hey have you checked out Second Thought? It's another YT ch____. You might find it interesting and worthwhile if you haven't yet.

  60.  @CitroTeam  250 give or take but yes. It's utterly ridiculous that pivotal aspects of the so-called Constitution haven't been expanded, replaced, or updated yet. I don't like the fact we still have a Senate period, but everyone can agree the EC is ludicrous and should have been ended a very long time ago. I would like to see the numbers of reps from all states increase, so each rep reps fewer people. Age and term limits for all positions for sure. Actual voting rights. PAPER BALLOTS NO EXCEPTIONS. National voting rules. Election day being a holiday. Early voting everywhere. An independent election commission to oversee national elections. RCV and multiple parties not this two-party nonsense. There's so much that needs to be done and you can expect these current people, or many of them, have no intention of doing it.

  67. I think all representative governance is cursed. The only way to have central management aka govt for the people is to have ACTUAL direct democracy. Dissolve the Senate, have national referenda for anything of consequence. Otherwise the gov is nothing but a plaything and a tool for the very rich and elite business. Period. I don't think ANY small body of "representatives" will ever accurately serve the 90%. Ours is just one of the most skewed and corrupt out of a world of other elite-only-serving "republican" types of faux-democracies.

  72. And the sad thing is, GOVT DOESN'T NEED TO TAX IN ORDER TO SPEND ON ANYTHING- THEY CAN PRINT WHATEVER THEY NEED, AND THE FEARS OF SO-CALLED INFLATION ARE JUST BOGUS PROPAGANDA FROM THE HYPER-CAPITALISTS AND THE RIGHT. Yes this is MMT but it's not a theory- it's OBVIOUS. Taxes are assessed not because the money-issuer needs money (does that make sense?) but because some economists claim they need to remove some currency from the total money supply in order to limit excess inflation. Tbh, I'm not even sure that's necessary. But the point is, THE FED GOVT CAN SPEND MONEY ON ANYTHING IT FUCKING WANTS- IT ISSUES ITS OWN MONEY FOR CHRISSAKES. If it wants to tax back some later fine, BUT IT ISSUES IT'S OWN MONEY THAT THE WHOLE WORLD USES, THEREFORE IT SHOULD NEVER ACT LIKE "but how we gonna afford it!?!" because that's insane. It will afford it by DECIDING TO ISSUE MORE CURRENCY FROM THE FEDERAL MINT OR GET IT FROM THE FEDERAL RESERVE. Meaning there is NOTHING keeping the fed gov from ending poverty TODAY and paying for everything we need other than brain-dead, ignorant, uneducated, corrupt politicians who work got corrupt interests that want to keep the lower class fucked up and poor because that means they're easier to take advantage of by the major capitalist interests. Also, Bec yes there is a wrong perception among the ruling interests that increased social welfare spending will lead to increased taxes which is NOT the case (not that we shouldn't tax at the top, we definitely should, just not because the gov "needs" that money to fund public programs, obviously it doesn't- cuz it makes its own money in the first place!); and their greed is so profound and infinite that even if they have billions they say hell no to more taxes, and tell the politicians they own to always vote no on any public spending bills (never on huge tax cuts bills or Defense Dept bills of course!). Bottom line, due to MMT AND SIMPLE COMMON SENSE, there is no moral or rational excuse for the federal government to allow poverty, lack and decay to occur within these borders. Period. All that could have been addressed and spent on decades ago, and if some of the more intelligent elected officials want to tax back a small portion of that (hopefully only from the top), later on to supposedly limit any possible excessive inflation (which sooner or later is going to happen anyways, inflation that is, and it will not be a problem; we always manage), so be it; BUT THESE PROGRAMS AND PROJECTS SHOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN ORDERED AND BEEN ONGOING SINCE FOREVER AGO. The ultimate truth is the hyper-elite is a sadist- and it WANTS us poor, Bec they see that as leaving more for them. So they come up with lies, like "runaway inflation" and the nonsense about the deficit to convince the less knowing of us that govt SHOULDN'T spend the proper amount needed to serve we the people's needs, and so we go without and we suffer or lose out; but curiously, THIS HORRIFIC SPECTRE OF FRIGHT- INFLATION- IS NEVER A CONCERN WHEN IT COMES TO GIVING A BLANK CHECK TO THE PENTAGON OR THE TRILLIONS OF CORPORATE HANDOUTS THAT HAVE HAPPENED SINCE EVER!! Now doesn't that make you think a little bit??

  74. Abolish the police as we know them. They are the Gestapo. No more American Gestapo domestic terror squads on home soil. Pigs should be used for 911 response ONLY. This isn't about even a pretense of safety. This is evil, and it's about W supremacy and a war on Black America, and right now no one in power is doing anything to stop it. There are many different ways to assure public safety. Murderous and lawless death, violence and extortion squads aka Gestapo ARENT ONE OF THEM.

Yes they will respond to 911 calls, they still do that, but they still are mindless or willing Nazis and thugs 98% of the time and if you can't see that well, I'm sorry. You've had a sweet kick-ass life then. And you're white.

  82.  @mckenzie.latham91  I'm more than willing to put my ass on the line when action is necessary. I'm not worried about getting pepper-sprayed by these animals. I was there in the GF protests, and I'll be doing my part to fight for a significant dismantling of the insanely out-of-control and virtually lawless police cartels down here. I live in the US, a place no doubt far more fucked up than Canada. Centrism and "moderatism" is fatal, and it's also what you'd get if AIDS and cancer had a virulent love child who then got the shit beat out of it with a COVID stick. I agree that we don't have enough clean energies ready to go at this moment to come fully off fossil fuels yet. And I don't know the details of this particular pipeline, but just like with the major ones down here, if this crosses thru Native territory, and they have deemed it too high of a risk, then it is wrong for the CAN govt to send in it's Gestapo to attack these people who are taking these actions ON THEIR OWN LAND. Are the native communities even going to see a dime from any monthly residuals as some compensation for the risk once it's completed?? Oh of course not! Just like the communities down here won't. Is there not a way to bypass native land and still run the Canadian pipeline? (The pipeline that this RCMP incident correspondended to?)

  88. Literally every president uses the military as props. Its for people who want to be suckered in by propaganda and actually think government is something to slobber over instead of seeing it for exactly what it is (at least in the US): a bunch of absolute criminally-insane sociopaths doing everything to blow up the planet so Chevron can have bigger quarterly profits while continuously impoverishing every state back at home to the point that we've never had more homelessness, bankruptcy, or poverty in this country in my lifetime. Oh and making sure mass incarceration continues. Yeah let me sign up to die and get maimed for this organization 🙄 I feel sorry for the poor kids who do get taken in by it. I just hope they get taken care of eventually, because these monsters in the VA at the top can't even do that unless they're injuries are visible. Tbf, they are offering better PTSD resources then before, but they are literally STILL rejecting vets who were poisoned by toxic exposure, just like they did for gulf war vets in the '90s. how these people sleep at night is a galactic-level phenomena that will never be understood. I was at one time in a branch of service, then I got out, learned a hell of a lot and now I see these people in DC for exactly who they are; disgusting psychopaths who serve their big business corporate masters and no one else. Party affiliation doesn't matter. They wouldn't even take care of the 9/11 responders until they were publicly exposed as the ghouls and monsters they are and then they grudgingly released the funds for it. And this is what kids are signing up to fight and die for. Sad. People need to wake up to the evilness and the violeness of who these people really are- who the US government really IS; not what some bogus State-sponsored propaganda piece says they are; and take a glance at their crimes against humanity around the world for the last 80 years, longer if you count domestic agendas. But deprogramming your brain from a lifetime of heavy propaganda is no easy task, so I can understand how some people struggle with it or still haven't been able to break away from it yet. Aside from from all that, Brianna's commentary was just dumb and it was no doubt written specifically by CNN's new (or maybe not so new) conservative overlords.

  89. American Blue phylth. Nothing but satanic monsters escaped from hell. This poor man could have been ANY FUCKING ONE OF US. Watch. Even tho it's the same PD as Derek Chauvin (NO SURPRISE!!!!) they won't be punished. The entire corrupt system swarms to protect any 🐖 accused of a crime. US 🐷s are PROTECTED by an evil hypocritical system that will DESTROY any one of us for the exact same crime. They are PROTECTED from the moment they wake up in the morning to the moment their psychopath asses hit the sheets at night, in the face of ANY crime. Less than 1% of all accused cops will EVER do any jail time, and those who do usually don't do enough. Makes me wonder how politicians in both w_rthless parties who have willingly done their immoral part to make it this way can look at themselves anymore. American 🐷 are truly above the law in virtually every case regardless of the crime. That's the US for you. Yes, they got Derek Chauvin, but after how much outcry??????? People have lives to lead. We can't have a worldwide uprising every time another evil 🐷 kills or violates someone's rights.

  90. The Right desperately looking for more nonsense culture war material to throw out there because what else do they have???? Their whole schtick is lgbt-bashing, some abortion bitching, and racism, thinly veiled or not. They have nothing else!!!!!!! Economically they have no answers bec they could care less, they got theirs by serving the interests of the rich and major industry, and fuck anyone else. If you're poor that's YOUR problem. Their whole platform is ignorance, cruelty, faux outrage, white entitlement, bigotry and bigotry-lite, and baseless fear. Guess that's enough to keep control of a majority state assemblies and the US Congress since at least 1981 not to mention all the previous eras where no racial justice legislation was ever passed between 1864 and 1965. 100 years. That's how long the powers of evil have held onto "leadership" in this s-hole nation-state, and in key ways, it continues today.

And it's medicinal value for 100s of negative symptoms or conditions is beyond dispute. Cannabis is nothing but a fun and medicinal PLANT. The fact that the US govt demons have served to demonize it and use it as an excuse for destroying or deeply damaging 100s of 1000s of wonderful people's lives is one of the most evil things this govt cabal has done since WW2 and is STILL doing. THIS MOVE AIN'T SHIT AND WONT DO JACK SHIT FOR HARDLY ANYBODY. IT FREES NOT ONE UNJUSTLY- CONFINED CITIZEN FROM PRISON. IT'S TEXTBOOK FILTHY BIDEN THROWING FRACTIONAL CRUMB-SIZE TOKENS AT US AT THE LAST MINUTE TO GET THE DUMMIES TO VOTE FOR MORE DEMOCRAT SHITSTAINS IN THE MIDTERMS. ITS A DESPERATE CALLOW STRATEGY, NOTHING MORE. I say this from the Left. The GOP is of course trash too- they both are. They're two virtually identical corporate parties who serve the same masters in the exact same way. Any differences are skin deep and usually just put on for the camera. Both are utterly worthless and beyond saving. Biden is a serious filthy scumbag that was one of the CHIEF architects of modern-day US domestic fascism, which employs mass incarceration and very- long- term incarceration for 100s of 1000s of nonviolent "offenders" as part of a well-calibrated subjugation measure. Biden and all his other sociopath contemporaries can rot in HELL as far as I'm concerned.

  107.  @MrGrimlocksmash  Trump was behind it ofc but he had a good 4-5 key helpers/co-conspirators who controlled the events leading up to that day. His helpers included the December, last minute appointed acting unapproved SecDef and his assistant SecDef, and I believe the CP boss and possibly his immediate CP underling. Also, I don't know if the most senior ground commander of the NG on scene that day was in on it but I think it very strange that he was willing to hold his people back for THREE HOURS after knowing the active attack was underway, official permission and proper paperwork be damned. I mean motherf8cking loves are on the line and he did nothing until he had "official" permission from Pence. And what- if it never came would he just have sat there all night just letting the crazies run wild until the Marines showed up???? Sounds like whoever it was he was a collaborator but so far zero investigation of the criminal compliance of key WH personnel has been accomplished and it's been nine fucking months. I don't expect any to be forthcoming and that's exactly what the GOP leadership wants of course.

I didn't even start having a political consciousness until around 30, and AOC already took on an experience shitDem by then and won. That is amazing to me. She addresses a crowd of 10,000 like no problem, I've never even addressed a classroom. You need to have more patience with her and cut her some slack. She'll get better. Progessives are such a minority in Congress anyways their power unfortunately is minimal. The ShitDems easily dismiss them. We need higher numbers in order to have more influence on the floor, and that won't happen overnight.

YES OCCASIONALLY WHITE PEOPLE ARE ALSO HARMED BY THIS VILE AGENDA, BUT IT WAS BUILT AND INTENDED TO BE A DELIBERATE WEAPON TO CAUSE PERMANENT AND INCALCULABLE HARM TO US COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, IN SHORT, DE FACTO INTENTIONAL GENOCIDE. JUST AS THE FEDERAL GOVT ENGAGED IN COORDINATED CONTAINMENT AND ERADICATION MESSURES AGAINST THE NATIVE AMERICANS THROUGHOUT THE LATTER HALF OF THE 1800s, MASS INCARCERATION BY WAY OF DRUG CHARGES ARE JUST THE LATEST WEAPON ON MASS DESTRUCTION AGAINST NON-WHITE MEMBERS OF COMMUNITIES THAT THESE FEDERAL GOVT SATAN-SERVANTS CONSIDER EXPENDABLE, UNNECESSARY AND UNWORTHY OF THE RIGHTS TO SURVIVE AND THRIVE. In short, just ANOTHER 20th-21st century chapter in a 400-year long saga of genocidal and violent organized American white supremacy. NOTHING LESS.

  117. I'm no fan of Klobuchar but we HAVE to get these gddm ultra-corrupt 900 year old fossils OUT of Congress. I would like to see the Senate be swept away entirely, but at a minimum we really need rational term limits. Almost all of Congress is corrupt to one degree or another, almost all of them are there for big money interests regardless of party affiliation; but these fossils really take it to another level. The only exception to this currently that I see is Bernie Sanders, but he's one in a million. The benefits to sensible term limits far outweigh the downsides IMO.

  119. Sadly not uncommon in these s-hole United States. Another 1st degree murder. Yes indeed first- they planned a violent and unnecessary home invasion, a crime no matter who does it, and you best believe they had every intention of killing any Black person they could find inside for any imagined "provocation". Street police are Gestapo and deserve nothing but death and prison. It's sad that monsters like this walk free without a single iota of guilt troubling their non-existent consciences. Absolutely par for the course for all Blue uniformed KKK-loving evildoers here in the States. Only a 20 year prison sentence for the killer and 10 years for everyone else present that night would be even approaching justice. Until more Pigs are crushed the way they should be, these blatant and evil crimes will just continue.

  123. So Faux News is infiltrating CNN now? Weird, although I guess not really surprising. Good thing I walked away from MSM years ago. As a far left Socialist/civil libertarian they have nothing to offer me. I mean if they're simply reporting on a non-controversial incident like the weather that's fine but their overall agenda is and will always be more corporate rule of America no matter this harm causes to the bottom half in this country. And not even the bottom half anymore. After the '08 crisis there were people of fairly high income who also suddenly found themselves in a situation that they never foresaw for themselves. But predatory unregulated capitalism spares no one and when you own the government like big business and 1% class does down here, you face no consequences. Scam artists like Barry O will bail you out while leaving average homeowners high and dry as usual. Our entire government is a joke. I'm now so far Left because I feel like my eyes are so far open that I'm in the burn it down crowd. A system this far gone in broad terms in my opinion cannot be reformed. So what that means for us on the Left down here can be a number of things. For me it's to work hard towards the creation and viability of a hard Left "left Unity" third party here based on simple, ethical, common sense principles of economic justice, civil freedom, and protection of the natural world, AKA eco-socialism. And if we can't vote our way out of this then fine. There are other things we can do. One thing's for certain, if you want to take action against a given system which sets no rules on itself only for you, you have to be willing to be as dirty and ruthless towards them as they are prepared to be against you. Once you've made that decision as I know I have, then you're ready to move forward.

  124. As a far Leftist I couldn't agree more but unfortunately in the US the corporate Democrats are hardly much better. They just put a prettier face on their corruption and their worthlessness and they collaborate rampantly with the GOP behind the scenes to pretty much f*ck the rest of us. I suppose for the time being the lesser of the two evils is still lesser, technically, but how much longer should we be satisfied with that? Only a far Left party that represents the interests of average people is one that deserves my vote going forward. There are other parties in the US but sadly the hand-in-hand BFF corporate duopoly effectively suppresses them on every level. it's not going to be easy getting around this going forward while building up any socialist parties, but if we care about our future and want to be politically active I see no other option.

  141.  @drewharrison6433  drug criminalization was one of it not THE most evil and vile political campaign in modern times. And this Biden demon was its most unapologetic, most aggressive, most psychopathic architects. To give you some perspective he was worse than Reagan. That fascist public-betraying w/s himself felt a then Joe Biden went too far and was too barbaric in his then-brand new drug legislation. Biden has been nothing but a cheating, plagiarizing THUG and sociopathic savage all his political life. His and others' goal was ALWAYS mass incarceration, mass evil, a massive expansion of the police state and predatory fascism within the US, and mass violence to marginalized communities and you just can't DO that without a massive attack on and criminalization of drug users and sellers. Funny how alcohol Prohibition was quickly seen as unmanageable and wrongly conceived, yet these demons are choosing to double-down on the concentrated evil of drug prohibition even after 40 years of blatant failure and domestic crimes against humanity. You wanna know the difference???? Booze prohibition affected everyone and nobody liked it, dope prohibition primarily affects poor people and COMMUNITIES of color, and 50 years of intense propaganda has millions still convinced "droogs" are the root of all evil! So that's how we got to here and yeah, it's vile and it's evil and intentionally so and it never should have happened much less for 45 fucking years- longer than I've goddamn been alive. But the evil of fascists and the bloodlust of our prison industry never dies, so the continued attacks on anyone even tangentially associated with street substances by the Blue psychopaths, always looking for the easy score while they endlessly rob, kill and/or destroy anyone they can, continues apace. If you REALLY want to raise your political IQ, stop larping as a shitlib on this shitlib-magnet channel and join us on the awakened Left. Checkout my subs for others to follow if you're interested.

  143.  @drewharrison6433  You're right that was pretty vague. What I would like to see stop right NOW is this revolting praising pf Biden who is a FILTHY psychopathic rat bastard, for ANYTHING, let alone this insulting token fake gesture obviously designed as a desperate bid to not get slaughtered in the midterms, like they most certainly will be after egregiously spitting in our face yet AGAIN over the last two years. It is designed to fool the morons, like everyone here apparently, into gagging on his 100 year old floor-length balls and making the ridiculous, self-hating move of voting for the Demo-filth again. THIS LATEST STUNT IS NOTHING BUT A CYNICAL TOKEN NON-EFFORT BY BIDEN AND HIS OPERATIVES. THE LITERAL MINIMUM THIS HUMAN FILTH COULD GET AWAY WITH WHILE LOOKING LIKE HE'S TRYING TO DO SOMETHING MORAL FOR ONCE IN HIS VILE, EVIL LIFE. THE FACTS: 1) THIS ONLY AFFECTS 6500 PEOPLE. JUST LIKE HIS COLLEGE LOAN LIES, THIS DOES NEXT TO NOTHING AND A PATHETHIC TOKEN GESTURE OF NON-HELP #2) HE WAS THE PRIMARY CREATOR THIS VILE SYSTEM THAT JAILED AND CAUSED EXTREME HARM TO MILLIONS OVER THE LAST 40 YEARS AND IS STILL DOING SO!!! YET ALL YOU SLAVES ARE HERE FALLING AT THE FEET OF SOMEONE WHO WOULD JUST AS SOON CUT YOUR THROAT WITH HIS BARE HANDS. What is wrong with you people??? Is it simply lack of knowledge?? I doubt anyone took the time to read my long OP rant and I don't blame them but I wrote out my full commentary in a separate OP comment if you're interested. (I don't expect you to but it's there)

  145.  @sethzwicker3631  yes good for them, but please, don't give this monster credit for ANYTHING!!!! If you do you are UTTERLY brainwashed. This is NOTHING!! It's ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! It's 1/3 of a motherfking CRUMB!! These people never had a soul and carry the devil with them everywhere they go. Nothing else can explain their abject hatred for the rest of us. It's quite stunning. They don't just want us not to have ANY of the priveleges they take for granted, they want is to suffer and DIE. They prove that with every breath they take. They HATE doing anything for us. Anything they do they only do when they feel they have no other choice and then it's as miserable and little as possible. The first thing the Biden demon did when he came AND THIS WAS THE PERSON OBUMMER SHILLED FOR IN THE 2020 CAMPAIGN AND EMBRACED FOR 8 YEARS. wake UP. IF THEY AREN'T TRYING TO KILL US OUTRIGHT WITH water poisoning or lack of healthcare they're doing everything possible to turn us into de facto debt slaves for life or outright bankrupt us and leave us dead and homeless on the streets!!! 2008 housing crisis- Biden played a huge part betraying everyone affected to Wall Street, but he was hardly alone!! Obama was only to happy to promote and get behind this! Wall Street committed crimes against the entire American public and got REWARDED for it while MILLIONS of desperate homeowners lost their home!!!! How about something more recent???? We got virtually no help during the pandemic, millions suffered and got virtually no help to stave off evictions or closures of their small business. Meanwhile billionaires DOUBLED their wealth!!! We couldn't even get the full $2000 ONE-TIME MOTHERFKING CHECKS THAT WERE PROMISED!!!! GODDAMN CANT YOU SEE WHAT'S GOING ON!?!?! THEY WANT US DEAD, BANKRUPT, STARVING OR HOMELESS- and they want the local Can't you see that these demons have an endless supply of evil to deploy against us in the form of policy???? If we don't find a way to kill these people and find a way to destroy this demonic genocidal system before it destroys us, we only have ourselves to blame!!! These satanic fiends are going to kill this entire planet and everyone on it one way of another!! I'm not being alarmist just educate yourself. It's literally going to be THEM, or us. Short of Nazi death camps everywhere it CAN'T be any worse. This latest stunt is a revolting disgusting slap in the face by Biden, the devil's own, and is just another remindee of how much they have STOLEN FROM US AND DESTROYED OVER THE PAST 60 YEARS!!! If I was a domestic abuser and I stopped beating the shit out of my wife for one half hour on Sunday would you call me a good person??? I stopped the violence for 30 minutes but continued it the others six days and 23 hours and 30 minutes, do I deserve praise??? Do I deserve respect for doing so??! No of course not!!! Because I'm intentionally and JOYFULLY committing malice and evil to an innocent person the other 99% of the time!!! Guess what!!! THATS EXACTLY THE SITUATION OF THE FEDERAL GOVT AND EVERY INDIVIDUAL STATE'S GOVT IN THIS HORRIFIC SHITHOLE CORPORATE-MAFIA-RUN monstrously evil satan-serving state. All this is is a satanically-evil and evil-loving entity being a TINY bit less evil 1% of the time. It's like trying to put out a massive house fire with a broken water pistol. IT'S SURGICALLY TARGETED TO DO NOTHING!!!!! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!! All the US govt does and have almost always done against the bottom 80% in this country is unmitigated VIOLENCE!!! AND IT HAS ONLY BEEN PUT ON STEROIDS SINCE 1980! BIDEN, OBOMBER, AND CLINTON, AND OFC REAGAN AND ALL OF THEIR LACKEYS WERE SOME OF THE MOST PIVOTAL, WILLING, AMORAL SHAMELESS PSYCHOPATHIC CREATORS AND CORNERSTONES OF THESE SYSTEMS, POLICIES AND PRACTICES. And no matter how long they live they will NEVER be able to atone for the evil they've caused, nor do they ever have any intention of even trying!!! The biggest gift you can EVER give yourself is know the depths of satanic depravity and pure, unending evil and HATRED that these demons monsters have for us. Until you truly grasp that, you won't understand why these satanic laws and policies exist.

  147.  @drewharrison6433  heh not at all. I approve of ALL drugs when used by adults with their eyes open, cannabis is a wonder plant for all ages, I HATE the govt and believe 98% of what this State does is evil or wrong, and while addiction is unfortunate is a HEALTH and psychological issue, certainly not a criminal one.

  149.  @drewharrison6433  some further copypasta bitching to finish explaining my position- THIS MOVE BY BIDEN AIN'T GODDAMN SHIT AINT. FUCKING. SHIT!!!!! AND IT WONT DO JACK SHIT FOR HARDLY ANYBODY!! IT FREES NOT ONE UNJUSTLY- IMPRISONED CITIZEN FROM JAIL. THIS IS TEXTBOOK FILTHY BIDEN, DOING WHAT HE AND THE ROTTEN CORPORATE DEMS ALWAYS DO- THROWING FRACTIONAL CRUMB-SIZE TOKENS AT US AT THE LAST MINUTE IN ATTEMPT TO GET THE DUMMIES AND THE CONFUSED TO VOTE FOR MORE DEMOCRAT SHITSTAINS IN THE MIDTERMS. ITS A DESPERATE CALLOW STRATEGY, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING MORE. ITS NET IMPACT WILL BE NEXT TO ZERO. I say this from the Left. The GOP is of course trash too- they both are. They're two virtually identical corporate parties who serve the same masters in the exact same way. Any differences are skin deep and usually just put on for the camera. Both are utterly worthless and beyond saving. Biden is a serious filthy scumbag that was one of the CHIEF architects of modern-day US domestic fascism, which employs mass incarceration and very- long- term incarceration for 100s of 1000s of nonviolent "offenders" as part of a well-calibrated subjugation campaign. Biden and all his other sociopath contemporaries can rot in HELL as far as I'm concerned. Only a true revolution or a coordinated Left Unity third-party takeover, or at least coordinated attack, can have a hope of rejecting these filthy fascist Red-Blue mainstream party scumbags once and for all. Biden and other likewise fascists can rot in Hades and that's exactly where they belong. I guess shitlibs truly just don't know how bad he and the entire senior corporate-owned political class really are.

  150. Can't we just goddamn cut the war-making budget by 50%??? Nothing less should be acceptable. Out ENTIRE Congress is for hire. Until that changes, nothing will change. Hopefully AOC will resolve to stand stronger in the future. If you're going to have any decency, you've GOT to have an iron spine in this game, bec otherwise the DNC will try to eat you for breakfast with their corn flakes.

  152.  @TheJrr71  shutup fam. The Senate is shit. It's bogus and needs to be fucked out of existence. It's a House of Lords and needs to go down in fire and flames and ray guns. You'll see. I love Bernie but nothing's stopping him from being a rep in a real House of Representatives. Who needs a Senate if we have reps?? Split the difference make everyone's terms three or four years. I think that's the most fair system.

  154. Thanks for this! Now I have a better basis of understanding. I think wannabe third-rate fascists are having their resurgence right now, and here in the States I would be highly surprised if our right-wing party, the GOP, didn't take back both houses of Congress in November. Hopefully their reign, and that of all D-list fashie wannabes on this planet, will be short, and afterwards strong Leftists can regroup, fight harder, and win. If they can't win federally, then hopefully they can win locally and regionally.
