Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @[email protected]
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind (except towards liberalism).
- No liberals (unless you are a masochist and enjoy the abuse).
- Strictly no downvoting (downvoters may be community banned, 4 the lulz).
- Bernie Sanders is still a liberal.
We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

I'm not a usaian so I might be missing something but isn't the most radical thing this guy has said something like: "I think people who have literally too much money to spend should have too much money to spend (smaller) so we can feed people and give them medical care"?
Does the mayor of new york even have the power to move on that? I would've assumed they like direct bureaucracy providing infrastructure and chair council meetings and shit.
It's pretty cringe to see handwringing over this guy make it all the way over the Pacific. He's a mayoral candidate, for people outside his council area or whatever isn't this a huge nothingburger?
The NYC mayor is pretty powerful in terms of both budget and political sway: https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-23626980
