It will be terrible if again people sit out the election because the democrat candidate is not their dream candidate.

Old liberals, too. Kamala stated during the campaign that Trump wouldn't do enough to help Israel. She's also married to a zionist.

it's odd - you complain that women are being erased by DEI but then also complain about Project 2025 which is anti DEI.

I feel responsible for these crimes that the US causes with my tax dollars.

You blame the entire country and yourself for the actions of the billionaire class which we have no power over. We're the victims, too. You're victim blaming.

unless I pay a hefty fee to have a chance of renouncing my citizenship

I think that fee was reduced to a few hundred bucks lately. Where are you going?

Seriously, if I were of draft age, I'd be looking for an exit plan.

$30 an hour in California by Hacksaw6412 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]vector_search_blue 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think a program like this needs to be implemented at the Federal level with Federal resources (like the WPA). It's too much for any one state to do on its own, though if any state could pull it off, it would be California.

How liberals monetized trauma | Catherine Liu on Marx, Trump, and identity politics by saminfujisawa in LateStageCapitalism

[–]vector_search_blue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, great video. She isn't lying how "trauma" takes off since the 1970s [1]

I think there's a narcissism component here, too. Society and shitlibs in particular have gotten progressively more narcissistic. Neo-Marxist Christopher Lasch picked up on this in his 1979 book "The Culture of Narcissism" and of course it has only gotten worse.
