I think I will puke non-stop for the rest of my life if I hear one more deaf, dumb and blind, soulless shithead say, “but under Trump the economy was better”!

Only because he inherited Obama’s economy.

Inherited a good economy from Obama. Screwed it up. Passed a weakened economy to Biden. Biden improved it greatly. Now he can brag about the economy until he screwsbit up again

I mean, they may concede: Sure, Trump's rabid, fascistic lunacy is . . . a bit unbecoming; but . . . THE ECONOMY!

The craziest part is that the economy is actually much better under Biden than under Trump, but these MAGA dumbfucks are so brainwashed, they have no idea:

American Idiocracy: Bad news for Biden. Idiots prefer Trump. And there are a lot of idiots.

Biden's economy is booming. But MAGA dumbfucks think the economy is terrible, thanks to an army of Russian anti-Biden disinformation trolls.

I’d seen this video once before, but watched it again. It’s a visual interpretation of this quote:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

—Martin Niemöller

I’ve just restacked this. Thank you! Also, I was wondering if you might consider reposting it alongside a clip of Trump speaking at Aurora or a similar one.

The Dems should just run this B&W spot from the actual archive… along with a voiceover reminding us where this came from…

It’s more difficult to deny reality when it becomes obvious that your grandparents heard the same verbatims… and rose to the occasion.

We’ve become so enamored with our anti-heroes that we ignore what real heroism entails.

The corporate media fails to realize they will be first to go under the chopping block in a dictatorship.

The corporate media hasn’t ‘failed to educate people’ about the dangers of fascist propaganda, in my opinion. I truly believe it has actively exploited public ignorance and apathy by downplaying the dangers misinformation poses. We’re now in the eye of a storm tearing through democracy normalizing the fascist rhetoric openly used by the hypocrites of a Republican Party and its wannabe dictator leader. His words that attempt to dehumanize sections of the population and demonize others are typical of that used by the Nazis before and during World War Two. It’s a time honored strategy to divide and control the masses by generating fear and hatred against a manufactured enemy.

And Kamala has to win the senate and the house also. According to these republicans……🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

So these clowns are telling her want she has to say.

Well, gentlemen, and I use the word loosely, when the going gets tough it takes

a WOMAN.

And we have one. Meet Kamala Harris.

Stop telling her what to do.

What you have to do is tell your fellow dipshits what they have to mark on the ballot.

Outside of MSNBC hosts like, Joy Reid or Rachel Madodow, there's Free Speech TV hosts like Thom Hartmann, Randi Rhodes and Amy Goodman. Thanks about it?! Sad state of affairs IN this Media Dessert. That's why you and other progressive journalist are so very important, Oliver!! Will reStack ASAP 🙏🇺🇸💯👍💙🌊🌊🌊

“Don’t be a Sucker” should absolutely be shown in every school every year, and discussed in class. Doubt if that will happen, though.

I would say this is what we see developing and what Putin wants us chasing our tails for and killing each other and over.. America’s history of racial hatred reborn.

“America First” was the KKK’s first slogan. It was getting better until Putin recruited Trump to rekindle the hatred and attempt to take America down from the inside. Putin couldn’t do it from the outside.. so sent a Trojan horse.. Donald Trump the great American traitor. Won’t be happy until theres blood everywhere.. that will prove to Trump that he is a powerful dictator. That is his goal. To use the church and its brainwashing to turn it from the religion of love to the religion of hate.

Corporate Media is in on the whole thing. All major outlets are owned by Billionares… it’s very basic… follow the money. Murdoch, Bezos, Musk and the rest of them…

They are the new American Oligarchs

The one that will do the most damage to Democracy is by far musk. He’s currently buying votes right out in front of god and everyone. He’s secured a position on trumps administration to “cut waste”. Campaigning with trump telling everyone he will cut $2 trillion. Which really means all regulations will be gone.. the reins will be off… all because it’s never enough with megalomaniacs

BTW.. Murdoch (head of propaganda and has taken a lot o our parents from us and ruined countless thanksgiving dinners)is fuckin evil as they come as well
