No, they are. Their best is just crap.
Dude, you spammed a hit piece about sanders that claimed he doesn't support universal healthcare.
Now you're whining about a lack of representation for maga chuds.
August 1993?
They’re just the only valid opposition to the Nazis.
I think you're asking "opposition" to do more heavy lifting than it can bear in that sentence.
I'm not even certain what they're saying.
Thanks for the preview of what democrats' reaction will be when people aren't happy with the next capitulation.
SCO always reminds me of this:
Optimism would be a denial of decades of hard work by the party.
And I can confirm that I am banned from politics@lemmy.world.
Yeah. Hispanic and anti-genocide. This will be used by the trump administration to go after people they already hate.
Do you suppose that matters?
We'll see what happens when it gets to the Senate. Will they filibuster it? Probably not. Will some democratic senators vote for it? I think it's likely.
I wonder what the excuses will be.
That thousand yard stare.
I expect them to filibuster everything. They have filibustered nothing. In Cory Booker's case, he literally filibustered nothing. His "filibuster" blocked no specific legislation or appointee.
I think the difference is because Disco and Picard are serialized while SNW and LD are episodic.
On serialized Trek, if the writers get a bug up their asses to do a mirror universe storyline or a section 31 storyline, you're stuck with that tedious bullshit for at least half a season. If episodic Trek has a stinkburger episode that everyone mocks for decades (Sub Rosa), the next week can give you a premise so beloved that they base a whole series on it (Lower Decks).
Episodic Trek can take more risks. I kinda miss the longer seasons for the same reason.
Imagine griping about hamfisted social commentary in Star Trek. It's never been subtle.
My biggest gripe about nutrek is too much section 31. It sends the message that the utopian post-scarcity society is only possible because of unaccountable fascists slinking around in black pleather behind the scenes.
When the trump administration uses this as an excuse to oppress anyone who opposes netanyahu's genocide, .world is where the party's gonna be.
