the government has ordered to cut discretionary spending by 15 percent over the next three years, adding up to 7.5 percent in 2026, 10 percent in 2027, and 15 percent in 2028, meaning deep deep cuts to social services. And all you have to offer and declare - its a democracy- the be all to end all.
Right, we are fuc…d.
What do you want me to do about it?
Tragically seems to me our windows of opportunities have passed, gravity is in charge, I am utterly impotent to do anything about it, and lords knows I tried, but no else showed up.
What do you have? An attitude, backed by empty words pointing out the obvious.
Those nostalgic days when we had leaders that put people first, when war was a bad word and when democracy was more than just turning up to vote every 4 years. Wait . What?
Case in point.
Empty attitude supported by empty words.
Like I asked, what do you want me to do about it?
Democracy required an informed and engaged electorate, we can take horses to water, but they got drink. We can drag people to polling booths, but they gotta be aware and think for themselves and stand for something. Look around what does our society stand for?
And when were they informed and engaged Challenge guy?
Sadly they weren’t. It’s complicated.
No it’s not. Self-absorbed, self-serving and willfully dumb as plug.
Too much “greed is great”, too little compassion and thoughtfulness.
Case in point. But it is complicated.
Which is it Challenge?
The democrats silence is helping trump dictatorship
You think I don’t see that? Over a half century I been paying attention to our nation’s disintegration.
Stop being an a hole and try to actually say something of substance and interest.
But perhaps that’s simply beyond your abilities.

Challenge badly crashing out once again.
Schumer and Jeffries are right out of Central Casting–inept, shallow, amoral, and cynical. These two, remember, were arm-in-arm with the likes of Christian frat boy Mike Johnson, demonstrating their fealty to Israel’s war of annihilation against all Palestinians. How low can they go, how big of fools can they make of themselves before even the most compliant and servile Dem Party stalwarts ( Challenge) say, “Enough! Time to throw them out!” I suspect they won’t be going anywhere.
When the script can’t be maintained. The democrat hangers on club not sending their best
Do you watch Jon Stewart?
I didn’t live in New York so I can’t vote against Chuck. This is a democracy so I can’t throw anyone out
Can yiu throw anyone in you DC?
What? You wanna fix that post.
Yeah Lausten, it is pretty pathetic.
I can’t help wondering about georgieboy’s messed up intellectual/emotional interior.
He seems to be one of those sad souls who emotionally depends on demeaning, belittling and striving to make others feel like дерьмо, most probably to compensate for his own self-loathing.
I’ve witnessed the same dynamic with gay basher, who invariably turn out to be in serious conflict with their own unresolved sexual tensions, in direct proportion to their hysteria - self- hatred is a vicious acid.
Which is why I insist it’s so critically important to get a handle on one self.
Sincerely (dare I say diligently) facing one’s own conflicts and failings, it’s the only way to get a solid foundation under one Self which leads to living a satisfactory life that’s open to the beauty life has to offer (yeah, yeah, yeah, even within the reality of life’s endless toil and miseries)

Dem Bro Challenge cant handle being bodied and resorts to posting babel
Within the capitalist parties it’s operation dictatorship versus operation nothing–should you even assume the Democratic Party is the least bit opposed to dictatorship.
Oh the irony. Dunning-Kruger comes to mind.
Why would you ask me such an inane question?
It’s the GOP who are pulling every dirty-trick to enshrine dictator trumpkin and destroy our nation.
That the Democrats are every bit as clueless and inept as the general public should not be a shock at this point.
Child, the GOP has been developing their game-plan, pretty near unopposed. Learn a little history.
You never pay attention to what other’s write. But then, asking good-faith, (that is, honest, intelligent, constructive) questions has never been part of your agenda.
“Why would you ask me such an inane question?”
What question are you raving about ? You are so cooked - small child . Heres my question - What will Sanders, or the Democrats as a whole, actually do to stop the destruction of democratic rights? sanders proposed nothing
The Dems are in a very difficult situation, with a leftist electorate and a popular electorate who don’t believe in them .
They act in the courts, mostly with success, but that slows Trump, without stopping him. Even the judges he has set in place during his first mandate judge against him.
They use the prerogative of the states they control.
They use every occasion they get to show the limits of Trump and his men.
If they win back the congress, it will not stop Trump who acts outside it.
The best they should do is to write a program able to unite the leftist and the popular voters, convincing them they have effective and useful solutions to protect the whole of them.
But as long as Trump controls the tale, the possibilities are very limited.
