where are you going to find the migrant workers to do all the unpleasant, if not downright dangerous jobs?

Replaced by forced labor.

Centrists would rather blame people who cannot even vote than admit that moving to the right has failed.

Yes, but these are nazis, so it’s not like the sympathetic legal system is going to do anything. Also, these are nazis, so they’re not very bright.

They’re marching in the hopes that someone will attack them in a fashion they cannot reasonably flee from?

They are marching in the hopes that someone will do anything even slightly untoward that they can interpret as a threat and open fire. They’re confident that they will get a piece of shit judge like Rittenhouse got.

Or does Ohio have stand your ground and we could knock the part about fleeing off?

Do you suppose that they are legal scholars?

but if they shoot you for throwing paint then there’s going to be a big crackdown on them

They’re armed because they’re looking to provoke a situation where they can commit murder and call it self defense.

What about this makes you think they aren’t?

Because he’s a compulsive liar and a Republican.

Netanyahu’s atrocities don’t justify your support for nazi shit.

It’s a shame that lemmy’s centrists abandoned the high ground on this, but I didn’t. Nazis relinquished their humanity to become pinatas.

If you see someone punch a nazi, no you didn’t. That nazi fell.

Remember that cops have no duty to protect. They protect who they like. They protect what they are.

He needed it to be too late before doing too little.

Read the fucking room. The story is about how hateful pieces of shit are gloating about women losing rights in the rapeyest way possible. Comparing it to how you’re sad that you don’t have a foreskin comes off as the whining it is.

I think circumcision is barbaric and pointless, but no one is inclined to have sympathy for your cause in this context.

Yes. If you’re lucky. If you’re unlucky, it will be theatrics in one direction and substance in the other.

Dude. I think circumcision is barbaric too, but there’s a fucking time.

Democratic leaders

Oh. Good.

Bluesky is run by the founder of twitter, which took far too long to ban Trump the first time round. I don’t know why so many people are giving him another chance to do the same shit again.

EDIT: I stand corrected. Dorsey left.

There was never any semblance of a bar.

Why would he quit? He did what he was hired to do.

Which is also what happens if you’re progressive and vote Democrat.

This is from the perspective of a blue voter in a red state. As long as something is a Red State Problem, Democrats in blue states figure that everyone in the state likes things as they are and deserves it.

If there was some solidarity with workers nationwide and not just in your own states. If there was solidarity with trans people instead of Democratic candidates parroting rightwing hate about “boys in girls sports.” If there was solidarity on cannabis or abortion. If there were tangible benefits Democrats could point to that people in red states actually experienced, there would be fewer red states.

But no. Everyone in a red state deserves to be abandoned, regardless of how they vote.
