Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body.

If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include not just the twitter.com URL but also Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source (archive.today, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org). Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed.

Mass-tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken Markov chain bot will result in a comm ban.

Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.

Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned.

Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society.

All they had to do to win was nothing. Everyone already blamed republicans. They couod have just sat on their hands until Trump caved.

The plan was to do nothing and they still failed

Yeah literally just had to sit there and wait, but I guess stopping weapons shipments was the final straw for them.

Respectfully, liberals blamed Republicans.

The working class, and most of America, blames the Dems, and no matter how much reality you feed them, no matter how bad material conditions get, their brains are too damaged by propaganda to understand anything except “Dem bad, illegals bad, welfare bad”.

Part of this is Dems allowing the Overton ratchet to exist as controlled opposition. It’s the logical conclusion to their game. This could only ever end one way, and it’s the way we are seeing it now.

The USA has a long, long, long way to fall.

The working class, and most of America don't suppory Republicans. They also don't support Dems. They usually don't vote for obvious reasons. Polling showed most of the country blamed Republicans.

The working class is not the Republican base. Its not the Dem base either, but this is a pretty strange view of the working class in the US and most of Americans. Respectfully

the working class isn't the gop's target base, the petty bourgeoisie is. in fact, it's pretty rare for dems to lose any high-turnout presidential election, because the majority of americans don't own businesses. i doubt the average member of the working class spends a whole lot of time hating welfare, dems, or even immigrants. even if you don't consider the polls, the president gets blamed for everything.

The USA has a long, long, long way to fall.

Poks.

they did polling and found that a majority of people blame the Republicans, which has a lot to do with the fact that they control every branch
