    Fetterman is just playing his part in all this kayfabe. Ever notice how there’s always just enough Democrats willing to cross the aisle to pass this garbage legislation? That’s because they want to make it appear as if there’s actual opposition to stuff like this when in reality this was the plan all along, they’re all in on it, and they’re just following the script.

    When Democrats have a majority, they flip it around and pretend like they always have to water all their bills down for ‘bipartisan support’ to the point of being completely ineffective so that they can keep us in our place while pretending to be heroes with victory just out of reach.

    Victory will always be just out of reach so long as Democrats and Republicans control congress. The ruling class is always looking out for their own best interests not the intrests of the American public.

      Yep. Im often disappointed that covid wasnt more deadly because the only way to get change without full violent revolution would be catastrophic events that wipes out these institutions.

      The black death actually had a similar effect in Europe. Its awful. I know. But nature doesn’t discriminate in the same ways that humans do.

      What does it say about our world that the most realistic paths toward more equitable government is an asteroid, super volcano, or plague with 90% mortality rate?
