Two things can be true at once. What Russia is doing is barbaric. What Ukraine's government has voted against in the UN, such as anti-Nazi resolutions, is also a terrible thing. You can criticize both. This isn't a game of "pick a side."

Also a lot of leftists have realized that the idea of "perfect victims" is deeply fucked up for Palestinians but when it comes to Ukrainians Russia can massacre village after village with large parts of its military being full of Nazis but God forbid one Ukrainian division has Nazis which is bad

"Blue No Matter Who" is how we fucking got where we're at right now. Neither major party is on our side. They serve the bourgeoisie at the proletariat's expense.

The Stinkfoot@thestinkfoot.bsky.social · 2h ago

Any Democratic is better than any Republican. That's true with centrists and its true with leftists. At this point, in the age of Donald Fucking Trump, you're either on board with Blue No Matter Who or you're a wrecker.

Ben Shapiro always looks like he needs hugs and puppies in his life so he'll quit talking like an old curmudgeon who thinks that Democrats are holding his life back somehow. You're already rich, Ben. Politics doesn't impact you negatively.

Delbert Grady Seasons@delbertgseasons.bsky.social · 2h ago

Both Democrats and Republicans are fascist parties that are right-wing and conservative. This shit didn't just start with Trump.

uosdɯᴉS ɐuɐꓷ 🦄@danacorn.bsky.social · 1h ago

We’ve noticed. That’s why I’ve started regarding leftists as pro-fascist.

Democrats are not good, period. They're a right-wing, conservative, fascist party that occasionally endorses centrist ideals to please their voters. At the end of the day, they serve the bourgeoisie at the proletariat's expense. We will always lose voting for either major party.

William B. Fuckley@opinionhaver.bsky.social · 16h ago

Teach your children ‘democrats are not always good, but republicans ARE always bad’ and in 2026 you’ve covered like 90% of their practical civic education wrt voting.

I was with you until the last part. You don't change a political system from within. America's is working exactly as designed, for the bourgeoisie at the proletariat's expense. The only way out is to tear it all down.

Red Witch Lizzy | ♿🏳️‍⚧️🧙@redwitchlizzy.bsky.social · 50m ago

I think there's some confusion here. Leftists hate the democratic establishment because it's liberal. Fascism is the child of liberalism. Leftists should be fighting for a better world and that means trying peace while preparing for war. That means electing leftists into the dems.

Let me guess: we're "aiding" Trump by refusing to vote for Democrats? Quit acting like Democrats are coming to save us. They're not. They never will. They're a right-wing, conservative, fascist party that serves the bourgeoisie. The only way out is to tear it all down.

Follow up question: has anyone told Stephen that NO ONE is interested in his full remarks on his YouTube channel? Just fuck off already, Stephen. Your glory days covering the NBA on ESPN are long gone. P.S. I'd be willing to bet that any active WNBA player will beat you in a game of 1 on 1.

Did we ever find out if the A is for Asshole?

This is how you know a liberal is comfortable with the right-wing, conservative, fascism America has always had. Everything was just hunky dory before Trump came along. The "largest threat" to our "democracy" that only benefits the bourgeoisie at the proletariat's expense. Start getting serious.

Captain Obvious@centersender.bsky.social · 4h ago

Only threat? No, he is/was by far the largest threat to our continued democracy since the civil war. Go be unserious somewhere else

AOC and Platner are cozying up to the GOP base because they are center-right politicians. They are not Leftists and nowhere near that.

LaNolaCola@lanolacola.bsky.social · 4h ago

Leftists like aoc and platner have been trying to cozy up with gop voters, includingnthe dumb maga bs, this year. But sure "the establishment" 🙄. All this hiss + vinegar for a guy who won his primary by narrow margins, and suddenly acting like hot shit and "we're gonna show them" bs. Grow the f up

AH HA! There's that phrase again which liberals love using! "Purity test!" To excuse genocide by both political parties because you think Trump is the only threat to America is completely idiotic and selfish. Take your own advice by learning to think objectively.

Captain Obvious@centersender.bsky.social · 4h ago

The phrasing of your entire claim is based on a ridiculous false premise. You’re the ones who made that conflict an insane one-sided purity test (“for or against genocide”) only for Dems, while ignoring the incredibly obvious risk represented by Donald Trump. Go away and learn to think objectively

They wouldn't be Democrats if they were actual Leftists. That would require rejecting the entire American political system.

Steven@evensteven27.bsky.social · 5h ago

Truly fascinated by Dems who aren’t leftists

There are no Leftist candidates in the American political system. Leftists are anti-capitalist and anti-fascist. Socialism doesn't win shit in America. Our fascist country brainwashed us into believing it's bad for us. The sooner we tear down the American political system, the better.

chazhoosier.bsky.social@chazhoosier.bsky.social · 5h ago

The ability of Leftist candidates to actually win elections will rely on downplaying exactly this kind of bullshit.

"Rather than admit I support Zionist interests within the Democratic Party, here is why our voter base was actually the victims here, rather than the people currently going through genocide." ⬇️ This post ⬇️

Captain Obvious@centersender.bsky.social · 6h ago

Incorrect. Holding an entire political party hostage because the US supports an an ally in a particular foreign conflict is one thing, but doing it so quickly after that ally suffered a 9/11-like terrorist attack will forever be crazy work that helped Trump’s re-election.

When you support Democrats, you also support Zionism, as the vast majority of the party is bought & paid by Israeli interests. YOU may not support Zionism, for example, but that's what comes packed with Democratic support. Always have this in mind the next time you cast your votes for them.

chazhoosier.bsky.social@chazhoosier.bsky.social · 6h ago

Arguing with Bsky Leftists: Me: "I think A." Leftists: "Well you're a bad person for thinking B!" Me: "I don't say B." Leftists: "You meant it!" Me: "I didn't. I explicitly deny it." Leftists: "SCREEECH LIAR ZIONIST WAAAAAH!"

I have bad news for you about that analogy. WE ALREADY LIVE IN A FASCIST NATION THAT DOESN'T PUNISH NAZIS. This shit didn't start with Trump. Democrats and Republicans are right-wing, conservative, fascist parties.

Well Leftists have zero respect for Democratic voters, like you, too. The more Americans vote for Democrats and Republicans, the more we, the proletariat, lose. You can't vote out the rigged political system for the bourgeoisie. The only way out is to tear it down.

Lacedaemon@lacedaemon.bsky.social · 6h ago

I have zero respect for leftists who either stayed home or voted third party in 2024. I will have zero respect for centrists who voted for Haley Stevens in the Michigan primary and will vote for Mike Rogers or stay home this coming November. Vote for El-Sayed.

That would be because there's nothing for Leftists to gloat about for the primaries. The entire American political system is rigged for the bourgeoisie at the proletariat's expense. No matter who wins, we lose.

@observerbs.bsky.social · 6h ago

Yeah. I have not seen as much gloating from Leftists on here as I expected, presumably because it was so close.

You would be wrong on all of these points. The American political system is the actual enemy, rigged for the bourgeoisie in the Constitution. For 250 years, they get more of what they want at our expense. It's unsustainable. The only way out is to tear it all down.

Ariella Elm@ariellaelm.com · 16h ago

It scares me how much the Democratic Party voters are divided. If you have more moderate views than the progressives are the root of all evil, if you have more progressive views than the moderate are the root of all evil. I thought the root of all evil was Republicans

It is really bad here for all 3 of these topics by Blue MAGA. The vast majority are not reasonable people, either, and throw a fit whenever it's mentioned that Obama and Kamala are right-wing, conservative, fascists who helped pave the way for ICE and border cages.

Asty@astypresents.bsky.social · 8h ago

Hey #Bears fans! If you have anything to spare to help a Packers-hating teacher get school supplies for the year, then here is a wish list! It's really sad how long teachers in the U.S. have been underfunded to the point they have to beg for supplies. Politicians hate our teachers!

Bart Harley Jarvis@williamzabka424.bsky.social · 20h ago

I haven’t done this in a few years, but due to budget cuts I wasn’t able to order any new supplies for my classroom, so I am sharing my Amazon wishlist. I teach in a self-contained ID classroom for kids with severe disabilities. Even just sharing this would mean a lot to me. Thanks!

No, the DSA does not. They want to reform capitalism via regulations to make it friendlier for the proletariat. Tell Ukraine's political leadership to quit voting against the anti-Nazi resolutions proposed in the United Nations.

@boykobostonian.bsky.social · 23h ago

SOME are centrists. Others want to abolish the US military and love Russia. NOT centrist beliefs. Btw, same KGB front that arranged Trump's 1st trip to Moscow arranged Bernie's honeymoon.

That's interesting you say that. Neither Platner nor El-Sayed are Leftists. Both of them are *checks notes* center-right politicians.

Sandra Catania@sandra313.bsky.social · 22h ago

That’s interesting that you say that. He was endorsed by *checks notes* Abdul El-Sayed.
