    They did this exact thing to AOC’s Green New Deal when she introduced it, and I couldn’t comprehend how people could read it as a bad thing (at least those who weren’t top 1%ers wanting to evade taxes).

    “BUT how would be pay for all of that ???” Which, not surprisingly, doesn’t ever get asked when the DOD’s budget gets increased annually.

    Fox tells them it’s bad, they’re brainwashed into thinking everything fox tells them is truth. A normal functioning brain would see how those policies would benefit society…

    (Fox needs to have a disclaimer on all their bullshit that says they are legally required to say this is opinion and not news, as well as quoting their lawyer when he said something like “no one actually believes any of this”)

        That said, US politics is so bad that this platform is legitimately further left than like 95% of electeds. If this candidate is a Democrat it’s likely that her own party will favor a candidate to her right in primary and if she beats them, possibly still not throw their weight behind her in the general.

        Remember that the leader of the Democratic party is basically a domestic spokesperson for Israel and refuses to acknowledge support the most popular politician in his own party.

    Conservative voters have been trained to dislike things that are good for them. That’s why many Republican controlled areas of this country are almost indistinguishable from 3rd world countries.

      The really sinister part is seeing that even some “liberal” Americans have the seeds of conservatism planted in their viewpoints. These are the centrists that tend to say one thing but act out a different way. The brainwashing is deep.

      I condemn the people that use the public restroom before me.

      I’d really like to know how there is a shit stain on the ceiling. It’s as impressive as it is gross.

    If they don’t want social programs then they need to pay enough that we can buy those things. But they don’t want that either. Sooooo…they just want us to not consume resources and die?
