    Hold up. You believe the Dems & GOP are swapping out frontline ICE and CBP agents during power transitions?

        This is why no one takes Dem voters seriously. Y’all believe the press releases matter more than the material actions.

            I don’t know. I still see a lot of subtle racism and overt love of the surveillance state coming out Dem voters. Maybe some have simply been fooled, but I’ve come to believe a lot of them are simply closet racists and pro-imperialism. Which is why they always side with republicans over leftists, when forced to choose.

              They’re cowards who have never been in a scuff or even so much as a play-fight in their whole lives. They prefer the protection of isolating themselves in a brick chimney as opposed to protection through rationale, reason, and community.

            So your position is that the thousands of children Biden deported were criminals?

            Fucking Dems. I know it clashes with your self-image, but it’s past time y’all accept you’re closet conservatives.

                Haha. I understand the difference. You’re trying to split hairs, and I am following your argument perfectly. It’s just irrelevant.

                It’s nothing new for Democrats to hide their racism & fascism behind shields of accountability, with excuses of adherence to procedure or selective application or other claims to minimize. They govern as republicans, put out a press release to explain it away, and Blue MAGA swallows it whole.

                I don’t really care to be nice when discussing the racist actions of Dems, and arguing with their apologists. I understand you don’t see your support of Dems as materially contributing to these racist policies, and it doesn’t fit your self-image. I also don’t care. Time to wake up.

            Leftists are taken seriously enough that the Dems spent millions trying to sue them off of as many state ballots as possible, the FBI/CIA/DHS spent a great deal of resources surveilling them, and US authorities regularly assassinate and even bomb cities to kill socialists.

                    “B-but the Free Markets” their head twists erratically and sparks fly, a spring pops out of their neck. “Capitalism… Vote with your wallet… Extremism in any form is wrong…” they say, buzzing with malfunctioning word salad and CNN talking points like a radio skipping through stations.
