DNC destroyed itself
Are people really still fetishizing the Joker? This shit is just as pathetic as trump posting fake images of him looking fit.
Pretty sure this post is shitting on peogressives
Oh, ha!
I had to read this three times to realize it didn’t say destroying the GOP. Because if MAGA has chewed anything up and shat it out, it’s the Republicans. They are playing their cards right now and there are no more left in their hand, ever. They’ll never be the family values party again, they’ll never be the jeebus party again, they’ll never be the fiscally responsible party again - they’ll always be the party that got suckered by billionaire criminal Trump and tried to take the rest of us for the ride. Others will half-assedly try to imitate Trump once he goes to the great adult diaper in the sky, but they will alternately fail and eat each other alive trying to be worse than one another. The Democrats are right there, same as they’ve always been, will always be around, and if anything MAGA are keeping them on life support because “at least we’re not MAGA” is their number one selling point.
Meanwhile, larger groups in the future than one would hope:
the SouthMAGA did nothing wrong, it was the Lefttm that forced them to do what they did
Some men just wanna watch the world burn.
Historically when the Whig Party fell a part over slavery they were replaced by the Republican party. Many Whigs became Republican. Lincoln was Whig.
The current GOP’s power basely relies on the Democratic Party being so incapable. A party with focused goals that aren’t just derived or borrowed from the GOP will likely break this inertia, as is so needed.
Honest to God, I’m not even sure what it means to suggest that MAGA is destroying the dnc
I would have maybe rolled my eyes if you said progressives were responsible, but this more just sounds like paranoia
It would be too much effort on the progressive’s part to do something like that.
As if I’ve ever found anyone other than progressives out protesting.
Maybe you only go to progressive protests and they haven’t done fuck all to help.
Maybe the next protest though…
I am so curious about which ones you claim are liberal protests as opposed to progressive.
I’m imagining it’ll sound a little like present day republicans trying to claim Lincoln as their ideological progenitor.
I’ve never said a thing about liberal protests I just pointed out that if you’ve only seen progressives protest maybe you’ve only been to progressive protests.
What is a ‘progressive protest’ then?
Like herding cats with this guy, I tell ya
It’s a protest with progressives.
I thought the name was pretty clear.
Really need to focus on greater evil. Same tactics as dealing with loans. Deal with the one with the greater rate of interest first.
DNC doesn’t need the help. They did this all by themselves.
Hell, they’re still blaming progressives and chasing “centrists.”
Archive photo of Chuck Schumer:
And here’s one of the progressives.
Why have you started with this crusade against progressives when they are plainly the only ones doing anything to fight back against fascism right now?
…the only ones doing anything to fight back against fascism right now?
What are they doing?
-
David Hogg is funding primary challenges to Democratic incumbents who refuse to obstruct Trump’s fascist takeover.
-
AOC and Bernie Sanders are doing their Fight Oligarchy tour around the nation to raise support for progressive candidates.
-
Progressives all over the US like Kat Abughazaleh and Zohran Mamdani are running for local offices.
-
The Congressional Progressive Caucus are the only ones consistently voting against Trump’s and the Republicans’ cabinet appointees and blatantly unconstitutional bills.
-
AOC is regularly hosting virtual events to inform her constituents of their constitutional rights, something for which she is receiving threats of prosecution from the Trump admin.
These are just the things I could think of off the top of my head, and while all this is happening establishment dems like Chuck Schumer and James Carville are actively fighting against the progressives instead of fighting fascism. If it seems like not much is getting done it’s because the neoliberal ghouls that have embedded themselves in DNC leadership positions are doing everything they can to force the entire party to “play dead.”
You keep making excuses for the small amount progressives have done while MAGA has taken over the GOP and used that to take over the House, the Senate, the SCOTUS and the presidency in the same time frame?
They’re making the moves and it’s really showing how much of a joke the progressive movement is.
Replying to this again because I don’t think I addressed your main point. The reason MAGA was able to take over the GOP so easily while the progressives have struggled to take over the DNC is because MAGA had (and still has) the backing of several large donors and owners of mainstream media. The entire mainstream media apparatus has been outright hostile to progressives until very recently, and even now they are reluctant to give full support.
The fact is that Progressives have a much harder fight than fascists because our ideas represent a tangible threat to the wealth and privilege of those in power while fascists’ ideas only threaten the powerless (at least at first, many of these wealthy people who are complicit in the rise of fascism will find themselves against the wall too eventually, but they are shortsighted).
To me it’s showing how much of a joke the liberals are, given they are the ones with control over the Democratic party. Because we have a two-party system the only way for progressives to gain power is to take over the DNC, which they’ve been trying to do for a long time and only now have been able to get somewhat of a foothold.
How can you possibly blame progressives for the Democratic party’s failures when they aren’t the ones in control?
Somehow the liberals are both strong and weak.

You’re sure these are progressives? The group that have been trying to get their ideas enacted into law? Ideas like public education, healthcare, and liberty?
Democrat “ideas” seem to be giving Hitler Sudetenland and hoping he will be appeased. I could do with fewer of those “ideas.”
The group that have been trying to get their ideas enacted into law?
I’m glad you added the emphasis to trying so I didn’t have to.
The only thing they’re missing are seats and votes.
… Are you serious?
Democrats have been running on the ‘Are you fucking insane!?!?’ bandwagon for years, while progressives have been ‘meh, why bother to vote for genocide Joe, I’m sure they’re both the same’.
Weird you think the “look how insane and fascist these people are” is a good campaign when your own party head is currently enabling genocide…
Like he could have just not done that, and Dems probably would have won. Continuing to shovel more bombs hoping some stern words would get the war criminals to change their minds was a stupid strategy. They made no change in their actions and hoped it would work out, despite knowing how unpopular that was
Lol, yes, that response from democrats to progressives who say our country is in crisis and needs bold change is why they’re losing
You made that change, well chosen!
Enjoy the camps.
Enjoy the camps
Scratch a liberal…
I voted against them, but if you are stupid enough to let them happen, I’m not standing in your way, I escaped to a safe country.
You had your chance, and fucked it.
This is the ‘find out’ phase.
Lmao, I love how 8 months ago, liberals were swearing up and down that if they proposed any big policies or changes they’d lose moderate voters, and now 6 months later they’re saying progressives fucked them for telling them they’d lose if they didn’t
Enjoy the camps.
If I collaborate with the fascists like the liberals are i don’t have to

Everyone assumed progressives weren’t that impossibly stupid.
Just like we assumed conservatives could never be stupid enough to elect somebody as crazy as Trump.
Horseshoe theory wins again!
If I collaborate with the fascists like the liberals are i don’t have to
You don’t even know what you’re talking about, that’s how childish you are, you think everyone who doesn’t agree with everything you believe in are fascists.
Remember how after all of Stalin’s purges and Hitler’s Nazis being killed, we had 50 years of peace?
I suspect it’s because all the assholes who don’t let people have peace were dead.
I look forward to the 2050s through to the 2010s, when all you fuckers are out of everyone else’s misery :)
I swear to God. One day I’m gonna meet a “blue maga” democrat when we’re both in one of Trumps death camps and they’ll still be complaining about how leftist didn’t vote hard enough. Meanwhile they’ll have done nothing but say this same thing over and over again during the entire rise of fascism.
THE DEMOCRATS FAILED TO GET THE VOTES. THAT IS A FAILURE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY NOT ANY VOTER BASE.
Holy shit. It’s like people don’t understand how voting works. If there were a lot of people that thought “meh they are the same” then THATS A FAILURE OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!
More to the point, that rhetoric is in blatant bad faith.
Liberals: “Vote blue no matter who!”
Progressives: “Okay, let’s run some progressive candidates and y’all can vote for them with us.”
Liberals: “No, not like that!”
Except they can’t even be that honest; they’ll say “BuT PrOgReSsIvEs CaN’t WiN” without even the slightest hint of realization or self-reflection that the votes the progressive would be missing are theirs.
Fuckin’ lying hypocrites, all of them.
To be fair, the last time the DNC got behind a progressive candidate for president, Nixon won like 48 states and it hasn’t really recovered since. It’s not hard to see why they are still in fear of that event. The issue seems to be the rotting shrubbery infesting politics from a lack of term limits.
We just have to tack hard to the right one more time and then it’ll be time for progressive policies. This time for reals. Pinky-swear.
You are shrooming, I’m not white, I got my family out to Europe before this nightmare happened.
I had 0 faith in the left to vote to stop the genocide of brown people at home, in favor of Russian trolls telling them they can’t vote blue or they support a genocide somewhere else.
Morons fooled by ‘look over there!’
But thankfully my family is safe, enjoy your camps, you will not be missed.
So you told people to vote Blue no matter who with the full knowledge that you had a privileged position of being able to literally move to another country. Cool. Thanks for your input.
Calling a genocide “look over there”. Wow you’re about as gross of a person as I’d expect for your brain dead takes. Thanks for verifying it.
You also didn’t reply to anything I said. You’re still trying to place collective blame in people making individual decisions to avoid placing blame on a literal political party who’s job is to educate people to get their vote. They failed. Simple as that.
Suck the genocide you enabled.
Not just there, but in America as well.
That doesn’t mesh with the expressed views of Democratic leaders like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.
What would you consider AOC? I would call her a progressive, but maybe the disconnect we’re having is over definitions more than anything else.
What are democrats doing to stop Trump? Their official policy is to do nothing.
A more appropriate caption would be the dnc watching the dnc destroy the dnc
[x] doubt.
Once the Democrats are removed from Congress, thereal Progressives will show up.
Edit: I dropped a /sarcasm, due to the thread being of that sort that seemed sarcastic. Adding it as I want to bed clear.
Just like the German communist accelerationists said, before they went to the camps.
