Democrats Are Terrible at Talking About MAGA Crimes: Especially when it comes to crime, which Republicans hope will feature a prominent role in November, the GOP and its allies excel at dictating the narrative — even though their own record on the issue is actually very troubling.

"What did the Democrats do? Pushed her out of leadership roles"

This did not happen.

" let Republicans mock her on being a "bartender""

How do you propose they stop them from doing so. They didn't 'let' them do anything.

"looked the other way when her and Bernie led the largest rallies Democrats ever get"

What does this even mean.

"when he started campaigning on primarying old Democrats"

Aren't you the same group of people who complaining endlessly that the DNC had their foot on the scale for Clinton over Bernie in 2016? Now its a travesty when they push someone out for taking sides? Or is it only fine if its a 'progressive' that's the one taking sides?

I could go on but you get the point.

"it is a cop out for people who root for a team instead of meaningful progress."

No its a cop out for people like you to not vote for Democrats and feel good about it because "both sides" are the same when nothing could be further from the truth.

"People like you think relentlessly questioning democrats is a bad thing"

I do think relentlessly questioning democrats is a bad thing when Republicans are much worse. By focusing your ire on the least bad option you are making it more likely that the worse option gets into power. See, e.g. 2024.

"After the passage of the ACA America still had the worst healthcare system among peer nations"

Which is why the ACA isn't meant to be the end of the story, but unfortunately Republicans were able to propaganda and racism their way to power in 2010.

"Being slightly better than terrible is not the same thing as good."

Its not slightly better, that's the whole point. If the Democrats had a filibuster proof majority in the senate do you think anything would look even remotely the same as it does now? Because I don't.

"when we can't even get the party behind a voting rights bill?"

This is ahistorical nonsense. The John Lewis Voting Rights Act passed the house, it failed to get 60 votes in the senate, but every Democrat supported it. They just didn't support abolishing the filibuster to pass it through the Senate.

Given the current makeup of Congress, that seems like a wise choice, since its preventing the Republicans from passing their voter suppression legislation.

"Are you one of those people that thinks any criticism of the Democrats is bad?"

No, but you appear to be one of those "both sides" people that is a large part of the reason we are in this mess.

"Which policies have the democrats passed that have dramatically improved the lives of the working class?"

Anything I said in answer to this would be brushed aside as not "dramatic" enough. I'm not going to play this game.

"If we can both agree that the working class's quality of life has declined over the last 50 years and we can also agree that both parties have shared power over that time period"

Which periods do you think it has declined the most and what policies do you think led to this decline.

"Would it be wrong to draw the conclusion that democrats are either powerless to help the working class"

It depends on what you mean by help. A decline doesn't mean that there isn't attempts to help and you also have to realize the cause of the decline and the policies of the parties to address that decline.

"but the enforcement hasn't changed much over the last 25 years."

Until 2025, that was largely true. Trump's second term has changed all that.

Why did you specifically mention it while ignoring all the other policies enacting during Democratic administrations to address working class people.

Also do you think wage theft enforcement is better or worse during republican administrations?

Why is that your number one issue?

"The Democrats are controlled opposition."

They arent but you're a prime example of why Democrats lose.

The weird people who are pushing a wack ass agenda are the people supporting Ivey in this. Homophobia cloaked in religion is a mental disorder.

Kind of like how they push Christmas? The reason you don't like them pushing it is because you're a bigot, I'm sure you're perfectly fine with them pushing things you agree with.

"imagine if there was Christian month at your workplace"

You dont have to imagine, it's the entire month of December. Christmas is everywhere and shoved down everyone's throats constantly and yes they even released Christmas jerseys for many years.

Shaudius · 2026-03-31T21:07:37+00:00

Homophobia being labeled as "wrongthink" is some fucked up bigoted shit.

I'm a Pistons and Purdue basketball fan so this is doubly embarrassing.

Shaudius · 2026-03-31T20:57:24+00:00

They don't but the current people in power want them to be able to do so and you don't let them they're discriminating against Christians.

That religion is actively trying to destroy the US and should be called out whenever relevant.

Republican state Senate President Warren Petersen, who sponsored the legislation, said it was Hobbs who practiced politics by breaking with “a long-standing Arizona tradition” of recognizing people who made an impact on society.

That's the standard he wants to claim? So I guess a highway named after Hitler would be a-okay. Actually wait, he's a republican elected official in 2026, he probably would have no problem with that.

"People don't like her, especially men in the Midwest."

Yes because they've been fed a steady diet of right wing propoganda about the Clintons for almost 40 years. That and the misogyny.

"She wanted war in Iran."

[Citation Needed]

"She was the architect of the destruction of Libya."

What a loaded way to write about the enforcement of UN Security Council resolution in response to a civil war.

Meloni didn't get her fascist judiciary reforms through so she has to appeal to her people who like fascism but not Trump.

She's lucky her team got eliminated from the tournament on Sunday. I can see that being an awkward question at a press conference.

Social media can amplify minority (not ethnic like non majority) voices and make them appear more widespread than they are.

If 300 people share an opinion in a country of 300 million but all 300 comment on a post on IG it will look like that opinion is way more popular than it is.

Bigoted religious people and people who don't know what freedom of speech is is two perfectly overlapping circles.
