Half the reason we’re in this mess is Hillary Clinton personally hand-picking Trump as her favorite possible opponent and amplifying him behind the scenes, thereby giving life to the deranged extremist version of the Republican Party that now wants to violently kill LGBT people. 

 

girl what 

And the fact that they're doing that AGAIN. Hillary's impact  imagine copying tragic mistakes like that

 

 

They KEEP giving life to the worst Republicans who are running. 

 

And not XAMJ acting like anti-choice Cuellar (and anyone who supports him, let's be real) isn't a right-wing Democrat

The problem with people like this is that it encourages right-wing Dems to chase them FURTHER right (and then be like "we may suck, but we don't suck at much as them so vote for us!), which is why both of America's major parties are right-wing at this point (center-right vs right). 

 

Like Ryan said, it simply keeps happening

 

 

Like XAMJ said, "Bernie would have been amazing" because that chasing-to-the-right strategy would have been abandoned, unlike with conservative Biden.

There is a large and sizable percentage of our population that want revenge, and they view anything considered progressive or liberal to be "evil", regardless of the consequences.  I truly do no see how these people can be "fixed", and it's not just boomers that are the problem anymore.  

 

Relating to this video, people responsible for approving guests and putting content on air APPROVED this cult leader to speak.  They invited him on their show, all of the necessary people said YES, and they got paid for it.  The fact that Fox News is so backwards that not a single person even resigned over this is... just crazy.  They truly don't see an issue with what this man said, it's scary.  They are so beyond being fixed at this point, I don't even know what to say.

Democrats aren’t going to take a strong, meaningful, policy-based stance against this, they’re going to use “at least we don’t want you dead!” as their entire LGBT platform.

Not only was this not the Democrats platform in the past several elections, but do you not hear the sheer insanity of this post?! The fact that you see this and think: "WeLp! ThE dEmOcRaTs NoT wAnTiNg tO gEnOcIdE mE iSnT gOoD eNoUgH!" Not only shows your apparent flawed thinking, but also shows the seriousness of our political climate. You don't get to complain about the Democrats platform when this is the alternative. As I said above, even no progress is better than this. ANYTHING that's not taking us backwards, is better than literal GENOCIDE. Holy ****. I'm at a loss as to why this needs to be explained to people. 

 

I get some of you have strong opinions and want to vote for a candidate more closely aligned with your ideals; but that's just not an option in this political climate unless you want political instability to give way to a literal fascist, authoritarian regime. And I'm tired of people saying it's not going to happen or not possible — January 6 should've set off everyone's alarm bells. But here we are, still having these discussions. Things may not change immediately under Democrats' - but they'll never change under a literal dictatorship.

I agree. I don't think this is Fox News tho (a major cable network would struggle to get away with this), it's this guy's (Stew Peters, whoever that is) podcast/show

You have entirely missed my point. You also seem to have the impression that you're talking to petulant children whose understanding is somehow beneath your own; please dispel yourself of the notion that you "need" to "explain" anything here.

 

My post (the whole thing, not just your cherry-picked sentence), and my attitude, are about how Democrats' supporters actively, willfully, and constantly absolve the Democrats of their portion of responsibility for getting us here in the first place. It's always immediate "b-b-but BiDeN BaD BeRnIe GoOd!" mockery aimed at leftists (see your own first reply in this thread) that comes first and foremost in these threads and discussions, pivoting away from the truth that Democrats have intentionally put us in this position. They willfully fail to act when they have power, and they prefer to campaign under conditions under which they don't have power. They work to maintain our system of stasis precisely to prevent significant progress from being made, and this is one of the side effects of their work. Their express intent is exactly your post - that we are always in a state of crisis, always about to have "the most consequential election of our lives" so to speak, always up against an unspeakable alternative against which the incrementalist crumbs they offer are the only "reasonable" option. This kind of thing is what happens when that is a party's only plan.

 

Forgive me if I am disgusted by the perpetuation of a system that has lead to rhetoric that calls for me and all my friends to be executed. Forgive me if I think there's a better way to do things than the constant push and pull of our facade of an electoral system, and as such reject what little the Democrats are offering in response to people who literally want me to die. I just think it's all bull **** anymore and I don't trust Democrats to fix, stop, or change anything.

Yep. The privilege one must possess to be like, "but democrats won't erase by student loans so I'm not voting for them" when this is the alternative.

 

The "grooming" narrative is exactly what this is going to lead to, and I'm not being hyperbolic. If the convince enough people that gays are pedos, those people will be okay when gays start to be rounded up and executed. This is what Christians want.

Conservative gay liberals: VOTE BLUE NO MATTER WHO!! ONLY DEMS WILL HAVE YOUR BACK!!

Centrist Democrats realizing defending gays could hurt them in the suburbs:

 

Hit with the "we're talking about kitchen table issues people care about" instead of explicitly defending LGBT people.

The insanity is that progressives are not even criticizing Dems aka us, the voters. We are literally Democrats - the irony that most VBNMW Lincoln Project libs were voting for McCain in 2008.  We're criticizing centrist power brokers in the party who are literally ratfucking and sabotaging the only path forward for Democrats to maintain power. Literally the only people proposing electable, winnable ideas are progressives. 

 

It takes a ******* **** load of privilege for the right-wingers in this thread to think "Democrat" refers first to politicians before party members aka its voters. In fact, it's pretty clear these proxy-Republican suburbanites trying to invade the Democratic Party and move it to the right are literally doing so to destroy it from the inside out.

 

Only such a scenario could explain the insanity it takes for the conservative "Dems" in here to scream and fight against people telling elected Dems to pass policies with 70% approval ratings, for which they're only not doing either because they were born in the 1920s or they're being bribed by corporate lobbying money to continue to let their voters suffer. 

 

Screaming about "vote or else!!" while not even Biden's endorsements are voting for Dems:

The ppl in here acting like Biden would meanfully fight right wingers wanting to do this

 

They're just pawns to vote for so it doesnt happen. Once it does, Democrats would probably just fundraise off it and not do anything about it like they are with everything else.

Honestly all gays should try to move to Canada as refugees at this point. The US is slowly turning into a medieval crusader state. Low key looking like some of the conservative extremist Middle East states at this point.

It would be nice for Democrats to reject this and fight to protect gay people. Instead they’ve chosen to ignore our problems in lieu of “bread and butter issues” even though the LGBTQ+ is getting calls for execution. It’s pitiful. People thinking they have the moral high ground for rebuking calls for Democrats to do something in response to this bigotry have lost the plot. If Democrats truly care about the LGBTQ+ community, they need to fight for us and they continue to fail to do that.

they don't do anything because they know gay people are GUARANTEED to vote democratic no matter what.  For the most part anyways.

It's time to stop taking people's votes for granted tho  clearly Biden is a master of doing that and that's why he doesn't fight for the wellbeing of the American people like Bernie does
