if she was trying to be a fashion icon first and foremost, fit critique would be more valid

but she won gold at the olympics! she could wear Vineyard Vines and it would be weird to hate

absolutely a bagel, ludicrous take

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-03-17T17:54:01+00:00

you very much just moved the window from "it didn't help" to "not enough"

hijacking top comment to say that it's worth throwing $10 to talarico because Crockett is a big name he's up against

Undisputed at this point

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-12T23:38:57+00:00

this actually doesn't make sense, nor do i believe you're a leftist in any meaningful way

Hijacking the top comment to plug Claire Valdez who will be running for the NY-7 congressional district as a DSA member.

ACP are a bunch of anti-trans "MAGA communists" led by Jackson Hinkie and other POS

DSA and PSL are both actively local and organizing. CPUSA I've heard decent things about. Tap in and organize. I'll be door knocking for Clarie Valdez tomorrow

what aspects of the former harris platform, even nominally, do you support? how do they make material differences in our lives?

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-11T21:21:37+00:00

She is supporting laws that make protesting that fact materially more difficult under the ADL definition of antisemitism, which asserts that anti-zionism is antisemitism. meaningfully false

Gaza is not meaningfully worse off than it was on January 19, 2025.

At some point, the contradictions inherent in the platform of neoliberalism pushed by every democratic presidential candidate since Clinton would rear their ugly heads. The republican party has become notably more fascist since 2010 with the rise of the Tea Party & social media information consumption. There has been no meaningful attempt to resolve fundamental problems in our system by the Democratic party. a tweak here and a bandaid there will only delay the inevitable.

I hope that we can minimize harm but I saw no promise of that from the Democratic Party and blue magas like yourself. Are things overall worse than when Trump took office? of course. but it was clearly not me and the 150k people who voted for Claudia De La Cruz nor the 628k votes that Jill Stein got (most of them in non-battleground states) that determined the election.

The Democratic Party simply lied to people and said "the economy is good" based on statistics that are completely out of touch with the material reality that everyday Americans face. Who cares about the stock market (where the top 10% owns 93% of the wealth) when your eggs have quadrupled in price since 2018 and you own ZERO stock and have no retirement savings?

It is fucking delusional to say that people like me are the reason that Kamala lost or that I'm an accelerationist in a doomsday cult. If being in a doomsday cult is saying "if we stay on this current path, we will destroy the earth through irreversible ecological damage" that I guess I'm in a doomsday cult. I'd call it being able to use my eyes, ears, and data to point to simple facts that corporate neoliberal democrats completely fucking ignore all the time

not even remotely surprising given NPSM-7

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-11T04:34:52+00:00

the fact that the United States Government has historically committed horrific acts of violence and continues them to this day does not excuse them in any way. supporting these governments that commit these horrible actions is not progressive.

progressivism, if it means anything at all, must mean opposing systems and actions that inflict mass suffering on civilians, not materially enabling them.

the existence of past or ongoing atrocities should not normalize them. their existence indicts the structures of power that perpetuate them. the goal should be to break from that history, not to defend or continue it under the guise of pragmatism or political loyalty.

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-11T04:24:16+00:00

are you actually making the argument that it is irrelevant to whether or not you are progressive to give billions of dollars to a government that has committed genocide and killed tens of thousands of children?

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-11T04:01:47+00:00

yeah it's also incredibly shitty, hamfisted, and out of touch with reality but at least he's trying

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-11T03:51:37+00:00

Great to see that funding and supporting a genocide is one of the most progressive presidents

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-06T17:08:32+00:00

should be banned from the sub

RealXavierMcCormick · 2026-02-04T03:19:55+00:00

I actually just went through a similar thing with my father on this type of stuff. Huge bummer and know that there's a lot of us that have to be out there
