So, let's imagine that similar opposition to the American electoral process in '64 had led progressives to stay home on election day, on the basis that LBJ was a shoddy candidate.
Okay, why? Why don't we discuss the reality of 1968 and 1972 instead? Because that was the electoral fallout of the civil rights movement, the various civil rights acts, and actual shoddy candidates divorced from the assassination of a sitting US President? Why should one Kennedy's corpse matter to this conversation more than another?

Whatever, just wash your hands.
You realize that LBJ used to campaign on identical premises.
And Lincoln supported the back to africa movement for blacks, doesn't mean he kept supporting it.

I wonder if there were other politicians who could’ve been pressured into supporting reforms out of a combination of expedience and necessity thanks to mass movements. I wonder if there is ample historical evidence of the efficacy of this, while our republican traditions tend to lag behind the mob on such issues.

Well since I am here I may as well smack talk, Harris.

She...

Voted for the Trump military budgets... twice

Arrested people parents, and students for truancy

Arrested people for weed, and laughed about it

Defending and strengthening the prison industrial complex

The state of California was ordered to reduce prison overcrowding and Kamala Harris argued against it, largely because the state would lose a low wage workforce. She’s literally fought to maintain prison slavery.

She supported Trump escalating the war in Syria.

She declined to prosecute Steven Mnuchin after his bank’s fraudulent lending and foreclosure practices broke the law “over a thousand” times and ruined the lives of thousands of homeowners.

Accepted thousands of dollars of campaign funds from Donald and Ivanka Trump multiple times

Tried to deny transgender inmate healthcare and endangered trans women by forcing them into men's prisons

Mocks the activist call to “build more schools, fewer jails

She stopped the release of a man serving 27 years-to-life after being wrongfully convicted of possession of a knife under the three-strikes law she supported

And I am too tired...

But there are just pages of stuff she did on a twitter thread.

Edit: antivirus was acting up here are the sources

What have the Democrats done to solve ANYTHING? Help the poor? No. Help black & brown people? No. Stop police brutality? No. Help single mothers? No. Help children? No. You have achieved nothing. NOTHING. Why did people vote Trump? Because of you motherfuckers.

It's almost like even pieces of shit such as white supremacist Richard Spencer can occasionally support good ideas (or at least criticize bad ones). Broken clocks and all that.

Looks like your personal beliefs are also attractive to Nazis based on the retweet :V

How does it feel being ideologically aligned with Nazis?

Let me know when we're done acting purposefully disingenuous to score political "points".

These guys have the ideology that democrats are worse than nazis since they are more progressive which means that no one will go further to the left while democrats are around. So they want republicans or nazis or whatever to totally take over because they think that will let the true leftists take over.

Alright fine, if Biden comes out and specifically renounces Richard Spencer, I might forgive him for courting the Nazi vote.



Note: I will never not be tired of this, this is the best laugh I've had all day.

He’s supporting Biden particularly because he will bring about a stronger police state to hurt African Americans. Isn’t that something you’re concerned about?
Edit: Also that’s a bit of a rude way to talk about Rose McGowan.
