What are libs going to do if/when it doesn't result in a dictatorship and Trump goes away after 4 years?

Does the fact that they spent 8 years lying just get memory holed? Or does it have consequences?

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 41 points 5 months ago

It won't matter because for libs the concept of living under a dictatorship is purely vibes based. Their definition involves no material consequences or realities just vibes

Also there are lots of places under full Republican control that aren't dictatorships. Every rural area in America isn't nazi-land, just kinda shitty places filled with Jesus signs and annoying people.

This bad centrist can fit so many fucking holes in it.

They find a new boogeyman to be scared of and immediately start rehabilitating Trump.

We already had all this scaremongering about Trump the first time round, and it didn't happen. So yes, it's already been memory holed once, and is now equally believed again. The loop shall continue.

No consequences just a rightward shift. We are in the endgame of power getting consolidated while there's still a planet to extract resources from.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
