Everything is always democrats fault. And democrats fault alone. We white leftists/progressives will not matter what is happening. Who is doing what. Always blame democrats for everything.

As a white leftist/progressive. I gotta agree with the man. White leftists/progressives protesting is totes democrats trying to drag attention away from democrats shutting down the government. Just ignore that americans gave the right all forms of government. Silencing and crippling democrats.

As a white leftists/progressive. Not only do i have no comment. The only way i will is if any one lone democrat agrees with him. Could be some random ass democrat in the middle of no where. If they agree? I'll use it to further attack democrats while ignoring trump saying it.

President Trump said "left-wing radicals" have tried to tarnish Columbus' legacy, and the proclamation is a way to preserve it. Some experts say it's a way to erase the heritage of Native Americans.

The reason colonizers are so afraid of immigrants is because they make the mistake of thinking that because all colonizers are immigrants, all immigrants are also colonizers. They think immigrants come with evil in their hearts, because colonizers come with evil in their hearts.

Kamala Harris: "Here in Chicago I'm told the helicopters that were descending on an American city were Black Hawks. Do you know what Black Hawks were designed to do? War. So I think everyone can draw their conclusions just based on the facts."

I don’t understand why we need a “Columbus Day” when this country celebrates incompetent white men failing up and taking what isn’t theirs all year round.

As a white leftist/progressive. I'm personally glad people stopped saying that about the right. Because it would have harmed white privilege in general.

It’s worth noting that when he decided to speak out about his unconstitutional ICE detainment, DHS accused him of assault.

They lie.

They blame the victims.

George did nothing wrong. He was just trying to get to work and was hit with chemical munitions and detained for three days.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

It's democrats fault for americans refusing to think anti-racism in a majority white country was also anti-fascism. Democrats shouldn't have been pushing that identity politics for minority (self preservation) groups was a good thing.

The american public having given nazi/fascist any and all forms of government after project 2025 is the fault of democrats. They should have injected what americans have been taught in history classes and in after school specials and in all entertainment directly into american's skills.

It's so insane watching democrats/liberals blame voters for who was elected in elections. That's like saying if you shoot a person. It's your fault they were shot. What kind of loony dem centrist shit is that? Who cares that the below happened and can be factually pointed to constantly?

As a white leftist/progressive i totally agree. Personal responsibility doesn't exist and i'm sooo tired of greedy ass dem centrists saying it does. Adults aren't responsible for how they voted. Aren't responsible for refusing to vote while a known nazi fascism takes over america.

It's not like the american public specifically shut democrats out in both office and in ideology. Meanwhile, every last entertainment genre from star wars to mr rogers neighborhood told them that was a bad idea.

Mamdani for the win!! @carlsagginballz.bsky.social · 4h

Of course democrats can do stuff. It's not like democrats/liberals have always been up against hundreds of years of non-stop manipulation from the right swaying white americans toward racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, ageism and ableism.

I really can't stand these dem centrists either. Thinking that just because american voters gave conservatives/nazis/fascists all forms of government. Shutting democrats out of doing much of anything. That somehow democrats can't create miracles out of thin air.

Hell, i don't even know why dem centrists would even bring up bernie sanders in this discussion. Talking about...white people treat white and black people differently. What do they know? They're just following identity politics and we leftists don't.

I KNOW RIGHT!!! We white leftists/progressive have to stick together. It's absolutely logical and moral to be upset with a politician for writing books and going on tour when they haven't done a damn thing to help people.

As a white leftist/progressive exactly like you. I totally agree that a private citizen should be harassed over americans refusing to vote for her and letting a nazis fascist take over america. These dem centrists are insane.
