Harris was beating the pants off of Trump when she was seen as a progressive. she lost because she went right.

The trumpists were right though. She went to the right to emulate Clinton, tried to flip Texas and lost. Just like they called out.

I explained in a sentence why they were wrong, I wasnt directly insulting them.

If you held your vote back as a protest vote, you voted for a modern day Hitler. Congrats.

Two month old account? Get your reddit ass back to that garbage fire, I’ve been on the fediverse since the first reddit wave.

The “narrative” is that Trump is wholly owned by Bibi, as that fucker has helped him every election, and will let him do whatever he wants. Helping that fucker get elected l, as you did by not voting for Harris will only hasten the genocide in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon.

And no, there hasnt been the posts about protesting Trump’s worryingly close relationship to Bibi to anywhere near the degree that you were all so “worried” about Harris.

Surprising no one they all vanished back into nothing.

Like the “swift boat veterans for truth”

The messaging being that the top of the Democratic Party needs to start listening to everyone instead of just their Wall St donor friends.

I for one am tired of the smoke and mirrors.

Queue up meaningful change but then “oops, new term, <insert insane reason or just GOP>” Obama didn’t investigate Dubya’s fucking Torture Camps, nor into the subprime mortgage.

They did the same shit with Net Neutrality under Obama. Left it with a massive and meaningless “ramp up” time that coincidentally meant it would be a year into the next president’s term. Oops Ajit Pall is parachuted in and cancels the whole thing before the “ramp up” is done.

As the link i posted points out, there is already a law on the books to stop exactly what Walmart and Target are doing in the US.

It has just never been enforced against them and the Biden administration joins the list that did nothing to stop them using laws they already had

Did Biden take on the illegal price gouging that Walmart and Target participated in during Covid? The thing that is directly causing Americans so much financial stress?

No it did not.

This is just another lie from the DNC blue dog propaganda machine trying to blame anything but itself for the loss.

To be fair, Trump is a complete disaster, but to claim that Biden did a decent job is a compete fabrication.

The article mentions that Israeli fans are at fault for all of this and that the arrests happened because a court ordered ban on all protests.

He walked with them AFTER forcing a bad contract on all rail workers.

Lets not just look at the last thing he did on unions.

And all of the corporate news execs are elated because for the next 4 years they don’t have to worry about running out of news; because they think they’re safe.

1. They need a majority of the provinces to have allied conservative governments to re-open the constitution, the charter and pervert both of them.

To that end Alberta spent at least 20 million dollars in the last two months to influence elections in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.

2. Poilievre would need to deal with the Supreme Court of Canada. This is one of the things Harper tried to start but he was stymied at several levels because lawyers and justices protested his attempt to insert unqualified judges to that bench.

However, the government also has the Notwithstanding clause that allows them carte blanche to override the Charter of Rights and Freedoms to do what they want, subject to those overrides being refreshed every 5 years. That clause was included over a fear of judges having too much power and was included at the last minute. Outside of Quebec, it has been used 6 times, all of them by conservative governments, mostly within the last 20 years.

Uses outside of Quebec: • 1982 - Yukon - land planning bill • 1986 - Sask. - back to work legislation. • 2000 - Alberta - anti-LGBT marriage, overruled in 2004 by Paul Martin at the federal level. 2015 - Sask. - considered it to override ruling to keep outlawing public sector strikes, but relented and did not use it. 2017 - Sask. - override court ruling against public funding of non-Catholics attending Catholic schools. 2018 - Ontario - used to forcibly change Toronto’s municipal council. 2021 - Ontario - overruled court to stifle free speech against them.

Pierre Poilievre is the leader of the conservative party. That party has been in the grips of religious zealots since 2003, when Stockwell Day capitulated the existing Progressive Conservative party to the extremist Reform party.

When he(Pierre Poilievre) was a minister under Stephen Harper, they suppressed scientific research, abolished and ignored environmental laws, ran roughshod over first nations, tried to repeal same sex marriage and tied foreign aid to the passing of strict anti-abortion and anti-LGBT laws in the receiving countries. They also were riddled with scandals, including taking a significant portion of the security budget of a G7 conference in Toronto for various ministers pet projects in their own ridings. They also routinely capitulated to US interests, including destroying BC’s forestry industry by allowing Canadian logs to be shipped directly to the US and not processed at all in Canada.

Also they cut so much from the budget and gave to their friends; as an example, they sold the building space for the control tower for Vancouver Harbour to friendly developers. They also sold the land for Vancouver’s coast guard base to developers, changing their response time from 5-15 minutes to 45-60 minutes. One of the things that helped Trudeau get elected in 2015 was reversing that sale and reopening the base.

Poilievre and the CPC party have been caught at anti-vaxxer rallies, at anti-LGBT rallies, at the anti-vaxxer riots(both the truck border riot and the attempted coup in Ottawa) during Covid, and he has refused to get a security clearance so he and his party have not been willing to deal with known(according to CSIS) treasonous party members, nor have they done or said anything over Moti’s(PM of India) inner circle officially attacking and murdering Canadian Citizens in Canada.

Current polls put his CPC party at getting roughly 60 seats over a majority, and the election has to happen next year.

I asked on here, but I’m Canadian. I know what is coming up here and it’s worse than Trump.

1. Its more that they’re returning to the old ways. Unfortunately it was a brief, exclusively western concept that justice was universal.
2. There is a solution to it. Western Europeans did it before, we can do it again.

Wc2: the Elven Archers would comment “that you don’t touch the other elves way.”

The .ml situation predates the whole reddit thing, no?

1. Harris wants to increase taxes on the rich. They stand to lose the most to that.
2. Getting guaranteed government contracts is an insanely profitable gravy train to companies; particularly military spending.
3. More so if you can actually insert your company into government logistics ( say, space flight, internet/communications and mail? )

Hypothetical crazy talk:

4. Potentially they want to start being fully dystopian and being their own governments as a way to cement a “legacy”.

It should be trivially easy to prove either way.

There will either be records on when it was changed or when it was discovered and fixed.

If there isnt, then it didnt fucking happen and Disney is lying.
