US liberals are constantly appealing for us to compromise with fascist conservatives. This seems pretty accurate to me.
No. We fucking aren't.
Biden didn't build more concentration camps? He didn't continue the wall? He didn't send his VP on a gaslighting mission to Latin America? He didn't interfere with the railroad strike? I imagined all that?
I could have sworn it was US liberals telling me he "hAd No ChOiCe" and that don't I know he has to do these things to win elections because if he doesn't then the [checks notes] well ... [nervously tugs shirt collar] lesser of two evils or something hmmm
But you said "no we fucking don't," so I guess it must've been the wind...
Ok, link me to the concentration camps. I can find nothing about that other than him keeping WW2 sites open for historical purposes.
Are you being serious? One of the first things he did after taking office in 2021 was to open more concentration camps at the border. Every US liberal I encountered downplayed this categorically fascist act. US liberals even claimed Biden "had no other choice" and some even went so far as to claim this was a good thing.
As someone who's had friends and family who've experienced the inhumane conditions in these camps, I'm not so easily fooled.
This is but one of a long list of examples of US Democrats enabling fascism and human rights violations, sometimes in the name of compromise, often for the mustache-twirlingly evil goal of protecting a capitalist economy at all costs.
Democrats are not a leftist party. They're not even leftist-adjacent.
He didn't interfere with the railroad strike?
You mean like getting them what they asked for? Or are you the type of person that doesn't actually follow the news or care about anyone else expect your own sense of superiority.

Now do the concentration camps and other straight up fascist policies he's upheld
Edit: Also, your article shows that he did interfere with a labor strike. Looks like he's the one who has the superiority complex, not me. I've never trampled on workers' rights.
ROFL… this is embarrassing.
I really expected this to be from hexb for this kind of brain rot
Same!
Liberals oppose fascism on its face and fascism leads directly to the seizure of capital.
Do the idiots who make these memes not have dictionaries?
....................what? What are you fucking on about?
I hope you're talking about Australian politics.
Wow. I wouldn't have expected so much downvoting for this meme.
Folks in this thread know this is left-of-liberal critique of liberals, right?

Yes, we do. We just think it's totally wrong
And my karma on this comment is positive? I'm so confused right now.
Pro tip: Join an instance that disables downvotes. I thought I'd miss seeing downvotes, but I don't at all. It feels so much more pleasant to browse without them.
We know, it's just not original, funny or true
Why yes, a lot of us aware of the far left attempting to gaslight left of centres into agreeing with them. Quite a common occurrence actually.
There's only Democrats or GOP! Nothing else! If you're not a Dem, you're against us! /s
This is some of that flat earth truth...
