Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•AOC wrestles with left-wing Dems as 2028 decision looms
44·9 hours agoMainstream approval is indeed important to win elections. That is why the Democrats lost the election. They ran a right wing hack and instead of pushing back and demanding a better candidate AOC and tried to force the left to vote for genocide. “Kamala is working tirelessly for a ceasefire” by the way.
“Progressives” like AOC are supposed to push the Democratic Party left, but all she has been doing the past few years is trying to push progressives right.
And now AOC is complaining that the left is leaving her behind.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•AOC wrestles with left-wing Dems as 2028 decision looms
412·10 hours agoAOC is doing everything she can to prevent the status quo from moving to the left. She’s the bullwark keeping the Liberal Democrats safe from criticism because if she takes the popular leftist positions, the centrists will be the next targets.
I don’t think you understand. This isn’t about frog costumes. It’s about dildo’s. A lot of dildo’s.
If you told me this was a CIA psyop I’d believe it but the event itself was real
I applaud the energy to want do something but people should consider whether they are spending their energy effectively.
All this did was give right wingers an incredibly easy punching bag and make the left look like absolute clowns. Doing literally nothing would have been better than this.
You think throwing sex toys at ICE is an effective way to protest?
Running around throwing dildos at people doesn’t achieve anything except making a cause look exceptionally stupid.
It’s just a random Reddit thread but it sure does prove the point.
Besides “Best” Liberal EngelSterben there’s also “Top” Liberal BigCBaller

It’s a reference to Contrapoints tweet from a few days ago

13·4 days agoThe NGO monitored the arms shipment and told the Belgian government they should inspect it. If it was up to the Belgian government these weapons would be blowing up some tents right now. I’m not sure which group found out but I’ve seen PalYouthMovement in other cases and they’re doing a great job of monitoring.

10·5 days agoRAF bases in the UK are used to load up US B2 bombers which bomb Iran. The UK is lockstep with Israel.
Why wouldn’t Israel have a free spy plane fly for them?















Kind of but also not really. Orban was against taking a massive EU loan to buy American weapons to give to Ukraine. And Orban was for re opening cheap Russian gas.
Both moves benefit the EU more than the US which actively worked against these things. But Orban was playing so many sides at one that basically everyone except the Europeans rooted for him.
With Orban gone the EU might very well destroy itself in a debt trap against Russia. But who knows.
