Mitch McConnell didn’t just enable Trump—he architected the road to American fascism.

Burn in hell, Mitch.

      the right has no room in it to consider the possibility that the hippies, punks, black panthers, or any other anti-authoritarian movement, has a point until it’s already too late.

      Reminds me of German chancellor Franz von Papen. He was instrumental in bringing Hitler to power but he never accepted responsibility for it, even though he lived until 1969!

      He’s not the majority leader any more, and without all the sycophants flattering and distracting him, it turns out that someone has been systematically sabotaging US democracy going back years.

      Technically he is the lone GOP senator to vote against 3 Trump nominees and to openly side with Ukraine.

      If we celebrate him and a few more GOP jump on tbat bandwagon it could be phenomenal.

          I guess I wouldn’t be all that upset if he died but it wouldn’t make any difference at all because the Republicans would still have a comfortable senate majority.

          If anything it would probably make senators more afraid to oppose Trump.

            Yeah, compared to the newest batch of anti-american traitorous qon scum, mcturtle is almost one of the good Republicans. And I threw up a little bit in my mouth even typing that.

            But at least he had a pair enough to say that the polio vaccine is, well, a thing. Because he’s not a complete dumbfuck like some of these younger asshats, who are breeding all kinds of stupidity and awfulness to far surpass his version of conservative Republican. The new, younger assholes are just pure Dunning-Kruger Nazi 2.0 stuff.

            People kept telling me - and keep telling me, in fact - that somehow the newer generation(s) are magical beings that will somehow save all the rest of us. Not sure I believe that for a second when the qons are cranking out people far fucking worse than old Mitch.

              Yeah I have no faith in the next generation as they are now. They’re learning from AI and Social Media algorithms, meaning they know less than nothing. The system built by our elders never taught them critical thinking or about the scientific method, the education system has failed us. Even if they didn’t, unless schools implement a constant stream of dopamine and seratonin inducing methods then they can’t compete for children’s attention.

    I hate that we’re still thinking about things in these terms. It’s not Americans versus Russians, it’s Americans, Russians, and pretty much everyone the fuck else versus our leadership. Putin fuckin sucks, so does our leadership, and it’s the people of the US, the people of Russia, and all the people we impact that pay the price for it. If the average Russian gets ahead in life over me, it doesn’t impact me. In fact, good job, bud, I’m happy for you. If our fucking asshole leaders get yet another leg up, though, it impacts basically everyone.

      Gotta tell ya, there are an unfortunate number of Russians and Americans that support shitty leadership because they’re shitty people and they want shitty things to happen, and a bunch more that are willing to look the other way if they perceive it helps them somehow.

      I said this years ago and got flamed on Reddit.

      The oligarchs and the intelligence agencies of every major power are more friends than they are with citizens of their own nations. China and the US and Russia are friends at a certain income threshold. The enemy bullshit is for us peons

      It’s a class war, but ordinary people have been effectively deprived of the ability to realize this. Marx had it right about the need for class consciousness.

      Trump should begin a new human centipede. Musk goes first, followed by whatever first magat comes around.

      When the centipede is complete, it unlocks the path to Putin’s ass. Trump finally bites firmly into those flopping anal wrinkles and attaches himself permanently, creating
