      They do think. It’s just that they’re bad at it. All the stuff they complain about is just in their heads.

        I’m just glad I’m seeing the democrats start pushing back with the same vitriol republicans have used, and are finding out the other side is full of snowflakes who can’t take the heat. Good job, USians! One step in the right direction. Get down and dirty with it, it’s about damn time.

          It is nice to see them grow part of a spine, but based on history, the Dem party leadership will nip that in the bud by next summer when the mid term election cycle is in full swing in a lame attempt to sway moderate and conservative voters.

              And if you criticize our failing strategy you are actually a right winger, you just don’t know it!

                No no no, if you don’t constantly support the policies that got us here, youre an accellerationist who want the republicans to win. Which is definitely a real position people on lemmy have. Don’t ask them, just trust me and block any instance left of tepid liberalism.

        We are all manipulated to think a certain way by our garbage media diet and lackluster advertising regulations. It’s impossible to avoid the bs projected at us 24/7. I constantly have to drive by billboards with anti-abortion propaganda slogans on them…

          I know. I’m not saying this from any kind of high horse. It’s not just the US and Americans aren’t inherently weaker or dumber or whatever else. It’s just a particularly shitty situation. We’re most likely heading towards similar times over here in Europe.
