Russiagate was the final nail in the coffin of this country. Dems always sucked, but on the ground, they used to be anti war and more willing to do Occupy Wall Street type stuff. It wasn’t awesome, but it was better than deep throating the status quo boot.

I was referring to the people, not the politicians. Also, before Obama.

Eh the anti-war movement was dead in the Democratic Party as soon as Obama co-opted it and then suffocated it methodically. It was really just a momentary anti-Bush flare up and nothing principled, otherwise those anti-Iraq War protesters should have also protested Libya, Syria, the surge, Honduras, etc.

It turns out that many of those protesters felt greater loyalty to the DNC and Obama than they did to the targets of imperialism. No surprise that when those 2 come into conflict, the corporate warmonger party would come out on top for them.

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views.
