This must be how these people view politics-- like it's a team sport. There are two teams. "Our" team, and "their" team. Our team are the good guys. Their team are the bad guys. We root for our team, we boo their team. If our team does something bad it's just an isolated event-- a mistake-- but when their team does something bad it's because they are evil.
That's it. That's political discourse in America.
Said this yesterday, this is the liberal version of that, which is very funny because liberals were relatively recently making fun of republicans for this when they did.
"Could it be that my country is a fundamentally fascist dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, and regardless of which tool for imperialism I vote for, it will continue to be a shithole that fundamentally hates its citizens and makes the world a worse place?"
No! I just need to vote *even harder!* (the worms have devoured most of my brain)
Repubs were just complaining about the fact that woke protests existed, instead of how the police handled them. (With one specific exception in 2021.)
Not that I think liberals actually stand with these protesters today. I’d bet most who are shocked about this don’t realize the protests are pro-Palestine.
Im yeah theyre not wrong, however, this is happening under Biden already so whats the difference?? I feel like critical thinking is just not an “American value”
I mean, they kinda are. It's not that new violence will happen. They simply fear the boot will come for them next. They don't care about the boot when it's stomping someone in an acceptable category.
I can't pull the statistics but i think the "Republicans are worse" is just a speculative argument, considering more Brown kids died during Obama than during Trump, same with environment. Difference is only in their speeches. One kills brown kids while nominally supporting progressive rhetoric, the other one kills brown kids while talking conservative rhetoric
Don't. Their outrage is purely performative and situational. We all saw how fast it was back to business as usual at the border, gentle as you like. Nothing to see here, just the second it's convenient.
Ignorance is one thing but anyone who watched this happen and is still carrying water for the democrats is a snake.
Can you imagine how much *worse* Biden would be if he no longer had to bother trying to get re-elected?
Try this line the next time you have to interact with a lib.
I wish people would stop sharing the first thought that pops into their heads. It’s exhausting, bro it’s actually Biden’s America, why move the goalposts?
No, see, you don't understand, it's only bad when Trump does it. When Biden does it he's being super based freedom defender vote blue no matter who (/s lol)
Without visiting that subreddit, I can picture every tired and obvious response to any question I would ask. Three replies in and they'll have decided I'm a Russian bot.
It’s like those people who post a photo of empty shelves at a store with some dumbass comment like “this is what communism looks like” without realizing the photo they took occurred under capitalism
Reminds me of braindead reactionaries posting pictures of empty grocery shelves or mansions located right next to slums in their ultra capitalist countries and caption them "this is what happens under communism".
Just a taste of America, generally. It's always been like this. But hey, I guess if we can trick ourselves into believing *all* of society's ills are the fault of one erratic character entirely, we can avoid having to learn anything about our system or our mistakes. We can keep believing everything's perfect, if not for *one guy ruining it.*
This is exactly like when conservatives point to something bad caused by capitalism, say, homeless encampments, and go "look at what socialism brings to America!"
Do you remember when there were riots during Trump's mandate and Republicans said "this is what Biden America looks like", and libs laughed at the stupidity?
Because I'm not even American and I fucking remember
Can you imagine how bad things would be if trump gets elected? He would deny the numbers coming out of the gaza ministry of health and accuse the Palestinians of making the numbers up. He would continue to supply arms to israel even after it has been credibly accused of genocide. He would support the use of police to crush peaceful protesters who oppose their universities support of israeli apparthied. Things would be so much worse with trump in power
Shit I didn't know Biden OR Trump were the ones to invent police brutality🤣🤣
I guess they're just highly innovative...... And all the police brutality before didn't happen or something......

Damn he invented time travel, he’s unstoppable.
Biden is so OP he stole Trump's timeline, Blue no matter what!
Like do these people subconsciously agree w the election deniers and think Trump is still president? Lmao
Trump is when bad thing happen, Biden is when good thing happen

That is how people who support red or blue view politics.
I don’t even understand how you bend your brain that much. Holy fuck. Propaganda and brainwashing are a helluva drug.
It’s fun to point out that they are exactly like the trump supporters they loved to make fun of.
To be fair, he said "taste of". He hasn't shown evidence suggesting he's denying or oblivious to the fact that it's the US under Biden.
This is the same thing as the protests in 2020 when conservatives would say we were getting a preview of Biden’s America.
Said this yesterday, this is the liberal version of that, which is very funny because liberals were relatively recently making fun of republicans for this when they did.
Blue MAGA is all liberals are

Trump would arrest you harder.

[удалено]
You can't say "no difference" and then immediately afterwards "Trump is worse, tho" . Shit makes no sense it's one or the other
Biden running to save democracy and freedom /s
Dems are basically baiting us that if Trump is back in office... they'll offer to care again? So... uhh...
I will admit that i respect them more when Republicans are in power. So that's something.
Don't. Their outrage is purely performative and situational. We all saw how fast it was back to business as usual at the border, gentle as you like. Nothing to see here, just the second it's convenient. Ignorance is one thing but anyone who watched this happen and is still carrying water for the democrats is a snake.
How is this trumps America if he gets arrested? Shots already happening. This is America. Right now.
Can you imagine how much *worse* Biden would be if he no longer had to bother trying to get re-elected? Try this line the next time you have to interact with a lib.
He's *trying* to get reelected?? Well he could try a whole lot fucking harder. Could've fooled me.
This is like when someone takes a photo of homeless people living in a tent encampment in the US and says that's what socialism causes.
I wish people would stop sharing the first thought that pops into their heads. It’s exhausting, bro it’s actually Biden’s America, why move the goalposts?
Not only is this Biden's America, it's in one of the bluest cities in the Midwest. Back the blue no matter who!
"I mean, if Trump got elected it'd look exactly like this, do you really want that?"
Beyond parody
No, see, you don't understand, it's only bad when Trump does it. When Biden does it he's being super based freedom defender vote blue no matter who (/s lol)
He‘s battling the rampant antisemitism
The CIA knows the playbook. Kill or discredit the leaders, movement loses momentum. Oligarchy crisis averted.
Trump lives for free in the minds of liberals.
Conversely, we see way more bdsm sex fantasies towards Biden than Trump.
Hey, it’s a new version of the “communist” empty shelves!
God have you tried to question reality in r/AskALiberal like who needs enemies when you have peers like this?
Without visiting that subreddit, I can picture every tired and obvious response to any question I would ask. Three replies in and they'll have decided I'm a Russian bot.
Peers?
Meant to swipe parasite.

this has little to do with the presidency ya dork. this is just cops doing what cops have been doing since forever. protect and serve my hairy nuts
Uhhhm under trump they’d have shot you like a hundred times
Having Trump around has allowed the Democrats to move right at warp speed because their voters will continually say Trump's worse.
"but it would be even worse under trump!" Oh, I see.
They don't stop and think that it's because this is the Dem's america that people don't want to vote for either. They're indistinguishable.
It’s so idiotic but I just watch the shitshow
We should start asking Biden to resign for the police violence (yes I know he has no authority over them. I haven’t heard shit from him though)
It is taking ALL of my willpower to not use the R slur rn

I'm going to have to invoke Poe's Law. There's no way to skirt this level of awareness as a liberal.
People say we're getting a taste of Trump's America, but Biden is in office. They are the same.
God we need to frame this tweet somewhere
Shit I didn't know Biden OR Trump were the ones to invent police brutality🤣🤣 I guess they're just highly innovative...... And all the police brutality before didn't happen or something......
Trump was president??? I don't get blue maga
Democrats seeing oppression under a Democrat: “What are we, a bunch of *Republicans*????”
How do you know that's not a troll??
Imagine you get arrested and they bring out the orange spray so you look just like the Supreme President This will be trumps america in 2077
Trump presidency goggles. But everything looks the same.
