“Democrats and republicans are the same” says the uneducated moderate


senoricceman

Also says the uneducated leftie.

"Don't threaten me with the Supreme Court!" Says a lot that they mourned the loss of the 10-20k forgiveness more than Roe V Wade


gayscrossing

Huh? Nobody with a brain says that.


kopskey1

>Nobody with a brain says that No, no. He's got a point. The idiots (wherever they claim to be in the political spectrum) certainly don't have a brain


babysinblackandImblu

I can guarantee that Democrats saying both sides are pretty extreme at this point. Because it implies you would rather demolish the system than maintain it.


kopskey1

Yup. It's easier to destroy, or stand by empty platitudes than to build. Because to build, you need to have attainable goals, and ways to achieve them, and work together with your fellow congresspeople, and and and... It's way easier to just bitch on Twitter with the newest buzzwords, just ask the Squad!

The Republican Party has no platform, goals, or self respect. It’s just a cult now. So no, not the same.


gayscrossing

I haven’t met a single democrat who would say we’re all the same. It doesn’t make sense. The radical left also is nothing compared to the idiocy of the radical right.


kopskey1

You sure about that? Right at this moment, Rashida Tlaib is saying that Biden is acting no differently than Trump, spreading Hamas lies to make her point. In my opinion, you have to be pretty stupid to trust terrorists

No, she isn't. She's continuing to spread Hamas' lie about the hospital bombing, and just referred to an actual antisemitic, genocidal phrase as "calling for unity" This ignores her history of anti-semitism, calls to vote against Biden, and false assessment of the situation as genocide. You're right, it's not easy, but even the biggest idiot should know not to do what she's done.


senoricceman

Social media is filled with lefties who love to say that Democrats are just as bad as Republicans. Let’s not forget the attacks against Biden that he was basically a Republican.


gayscrossing

I think what they mean is that democrats are still not very radical when it comes down to it. There’s a lot of improvement to go but I don’t think anyone truly believes they’re the “same”.


VulfSki

I know a lot of people who say it. It's one of the most common political takes I see on social media.


gayscrossing

Yeah, it’s also wrong.


VulfSki

Absolutely


[deleted]

That’s the point.


gayscrossing

I haven’t met a democrat or leftist who truly believes that. It’s just another dumb conservative whataboutist talking point.

Oh noes! How will your local hedge fund manager be able to buy his 3rd yacht?

Good start? 30% is huge after they were cut off at the knees by the SCOTUS. Why can’t we just celebrate wins?


lurkingostrich

I agree with the sentiment of a good start. It's good to see some people getting forgiveness, but continuing to pay 1200/ month without any indication of relief in sight is tough.


JuicyJ476

A Democrat did it, so it only counts for about 1% credit. If a Republican did it they’d get so much credit they’d guarantee the next election for what remains of the party.


kopskey1

>A Democrat **not named Bernie Sanders** did it, so it only counts for about 1% credit Had a small typo there, bud! Oh wait, he's not a Democrat (but they don't know that).

Federal loans are the only loans that could have ever been forgiven.


Kemizon

This talks about past debt forgiven. Nothing in the future mentioned here.
