The whole point of the antichrist is they rise to power by exploiting Christians and their faith…
Like, everything about the two line up that I’m starting to think trump is literally using the myth as a blueprint. Like, at some point someone told him about it, and his first and only thought was:
I bet they’re dumb enough to really fall for that
Are you asking why the USSR didn’t send a missile to blow up the US moon lander on the moon? What purpose would that serve?
Fun fact:
In 1969 the US had a plan to nuke the moon, just to show Russia we can.
An Aussie rapper made a song about it.
Genuine question:
Why do you keep making accounts?
I’ve blocked you like 4 times now…
During the four decades that passed between implementation and abolition, almost 63,000 Swedes were rendered infertile, in many cases in response to pressure from the state and sometimes as a result of outright compulsion. Furthermore, it was chiefly those regarded as “unproductive” who were the targets of that social policy.
So it sounds like the vast majority wasn’t compulsory…
But in a few rare cases it was, which were likely when the patient couldn’t legally give consent considering the subject.
Quick edit:
Was also in the 1930s when there was less options for non permanent birth control.
I sent you proof it wasn’t two different times
I 100% understand where you got your bad opinion from now…
There’s just no logic in the steps between those two articles and what you’re saying they mean.
You had an idea in your head, and you found a few kernals of truth. Then you played connect the dots and that’s where the confusion happened.
It’s conspiracy theory level thinking. You started with the results you wanted, found a couple things that were real, and then twisted it to get to your predetermined result.
Like, no one online is going to break you out of this line of thinking. If social media comments could break it, trump wouldn’t be president right now. I hope you have friends and family that can help.
I read both the articles before I sent them.
Well, do you understand them now?
Because it doesn’t really seem like it’s sunk in…
So now you think every Bernie supporter was a Democrat before 2016?
The connective tissue from Trump to Sanders is something akin to populism — the ruling class sucks — and that rhetoric plays well among a certain class of people who don’t feel the government works for them,” said Joshua Dyck, a political science professor at the University of Massachusetts Lowell.
“The politics of anti-elite grievance is not just popular in the United States and it’s not just popular on the right,” he said. “It is the story of politics right now.”
You’re doing a great job of illustrating how progressive policy is popular with voters regardless of party tho, so by all means keep going…
Are you just doing that thing where people assume an article supports them but didn’t take the time to read it?
Speaking of, here’s the link in case you delete it:

Can you though? It’s not for lack of trying but y’all don’t seem to be having much success with this
What?!
Ken Martin is a huge win as chair…
Like, we already changed the party. It happened.
That’s why I went from constantly shit talking the DNC to promoting it.
Neoliberals bet everything on Biden/Harris, and now they don’t have control of the DNC anymore.
The only people who shouldn’t be happy about that is conservatives
Oh ok…
That’s saying more people voted her and trump in 2024 than voted her and trump in 2020.
Not what you claimed it said.
That number includes people who voted Republican up and down ballot in 2020 just as much as it includes people who voted D for both in 2020.
So you think insulting them and badgering them that they shouldn’t have a single standard then letter by name…
You…
You think this is the most effective move to get them back in the party?
You don’t even kind of think what would be most effective is explaining to people how the DNC works and what the new chair is like would work better?
Cuz like, I just have a bachelor’s in psychology, so I would absolutely love to hear what I’m missing where you think the best way to recruit people in the fight against fascism is yelling insults.
If you want to help, actually want to help, can you do what will actually work and not work against the party?
I know the PUMA people are still around and bitter from 08, this is starting to feel like that. I tend to just block those people tho so I can concentrate on what translates to Dem gains in the federal government
“We’re calling it the ‘Organize Everywhere’ tour,” Martin told ABC13. “It’s a simple premise that if we’re going to win throughout this country and get back into power, we have to organize everywhere. We’re visiting red states, purple states, and blue states on this tour. And Texas really is the future of the Democratic Party. This is such a critical battleground state as we move forward in the 2026 elections – of course, the 28 election cycle and beyond.”
But you don’t have to go on hypotheticals, he has a long history in Minnesota, and supporting candidates voters want translated to wins.
It’s not even that overtly progressive, he just knows it’s easiest to win if voters already like the candidate and policy. And voters like charismatic candidates with progressive policy stances.
It’s the type of mentality of the people who burned medicine women as witches because they got sicker after refusing treatment.
If you tell them a bad result will happen if they stay the course, they’ll be yelling at you when the bad result happens
Their brains just link the person who warned them with the bad result, and they can’t accept that they were wrong.
The good news is people like that no longer run the DNC.
A lot of people that voted for Bernie back in the day voted for Trump and then AOC down ballot in 24.
Suuuuuuure they did buddy…
Now get to sleep so the Easter Bunny has time to hide the eggs.
The GOP always votes Red, no matter who.
How’d that work out?
Seriously, if your plan is to follow the same path as Republicans, does that mean you think it’s worked out well for them the last 20 years?
Are republican voters being taken care of by their elected officials or did having no standards and excusing everything their party did just make it so the most corrupt candidate advances to the general?
What is different about Dems that would make the result be literally the opposite, and how much more time do you think we should waste seeing if it works?
Instead of running a charismatic candidate with a progressive which statistically results in the presidency, House, and Senate?
Why not take the easy path that gets us what we want instead of the hardest path where we get the least reward?
It’s their job to convince voters to vote for them
Everytime this topic comes up it reminds me of incels whining no women wants them…
They don’t want to change anything, they don’t want to compromise, they want a participation trophy for just existing. What’s insane is that’s been the strategy for the last three presidential elections.
And if they won’t take responsibility for failing at their job, then they’re on course to do the exact same thing in 2028 and get the exact same results.
The new DNC chair has been very vocal about what the problem is, how to fix, and is already running the same playbook that solidified his home state blue.
The DNC is basically the chair, and we just got a much better chair than we’ve had in decades.
I’m an adult, so I’ll take an uncharismatic candidate over a traitor felon rapist
Great.
But like a whole shit ton of people tried to warn for the last year now, Biden/Kamala we’re enough to beat trump.
We’ll need all the voters again, we won’t need anyone that was involved in either of their campaigns though. So why shit on the literal tens of millions we need in defense of less than an airplane’s worth of people who hightailed it back to their mansions?
You get that, right? We don’t have to run uncharismatic conservative candidates to beat trump, it’s literally the worst option we have
We can just run a charismatic candidate with a progressive campaign promise like we did with Obama. Did you forget that?
Parties can be dictatorships, but should be a reflection of the ideal governance of the system they’re trying to run
They 100% should be. And we just took huge steps towards that
But I don’t think you’re understanding. This isn’t an analogy, the Party Chair has absolute power, and zero accountability.
That’s what all that noise with Donna Brazile was about. She was a high ranking person at the DNC who took an interim chair. She was expecting everything to be fine because that’s what the prior chair had kept saying…
Then she disclosed that the party had been bankrupt for years, and was being funded by Hillary since before the primary started which came with many strings, one of which was that Clinton’s campaign had final say on anything they DNC said.
I really think the people who don’t think the party has changed much, just aren’t truly aware of how bad shit has been at the DNC the last 30 years. Most don’t even know why it didn’t improve under Obama’s presidency
Maybe some better parties can take hold
Parties are essentially dictatorships, and at the top of my list of things wrong with our system
The good part of that, is the party can change even faster than trump can destroy America.
Elections are a popularity contest with weird rules more than anything…
But the DNC kept trying to force uncharismatic candidates with conservative policy down voters throats, and stole funds from state parties to focus on that costing us down ballot races making losing have even more consequences.
They haven’t just been putting all our eggs in one basket.
They put it in the basket of a 20 year old shitty child’s bike and then put Biden on and pushed him into the interstate.
Voter can’t fail a party, but Dems have been failing their voters for decades.
I’m optimistic Martin will change that, enough to give him a fair shot and not just a month.
The main reason it went extinct…
And what it was actually effective at. But the best way to convince a male dominated society that was important to make accessible was to convince them it made women horny.
When it just freed them of potentially serious consequences, like, a shit ton of women died a n childbirth until very recently. A one night stand could leave a women dead or shunned from her family with no source of income and a baby.
Reliable birth control would have been an absolute game changer.
