Lindy Li, huh?
I’m gonna remember that name when I have nothing else to lose.
Here is a better choices:
- don’t vote for these Nazi fucks
That’s the better choice.
This was my TED talk
Hey hungry people who cannot afford food, look at my fancy new ballroom that you paid for!
-tRump, effectively.
"He’s starving the handouts for millions of illegal aliens; why are we putting them first when we have so many Americans – millions of Americans – suffering on the streets? Why are we prioritizing illegals? That is a question that Democrats need to answer.”
Erm…you aren’t helping the Americans either lady
Those that voted for republicans or didn’t vote, I agree.
“Just get richer parents if you wanna eat, kiddo. What’s wrong with you?”
Your president is the king of avoiding personal responsibility, Lindy. Shut the fuck up.
Like living in a better country maybe
Billionaires always out there telling people to have more kids. Billionaires out there always trying to defund and destroy everything that helps kids. Billionaires are always out there grifting all the tax money and getting the politicians they own to destroy social safety nets. Billionaires always out there raping kids. Billionaires always out there jacking up the prices on food, water, utilities, healthcare and housing. Billionaires always out there refusing to pay a wage that allows people to survive in their rigged system. Maybe the better choice we should make is not having billionaires.
Is the choice to not vote Republican again? Because yes, I agree with the better choices argument there.
Lmao based on the people in my area on food stamps nope they’re just going to keep voting for these fuckers
And Democrats too
Li previously ran as a Democratic candidate for Congress, describing herself as a “tree-hugging progressive,” and sought the endorsement of the Democratic Socialists of America. She lost her Congressional bid, and years later, shifted to the Republican Party and to becoming a strong supporter of Trump.
Does anyone know of any examples of politicians swinging hard in the opposite direction? I’m not talking about things like the Lincoln project or changes made up to age 25 or so, but actual significant leftward movement from adult politicians.
You can never trust her again. She doesn’t believe in ideology, she just wants power and is willing to go to any side and any length to get what she feels entitled to.
Don’t worry, that’s not why I’m asking. No, she’s a rat forever.
I just wonder if it’s always in this direction. My suspicion is that it tends to flow from more discerning parties to less discerning parties, and in the US right now, the republicans are the least discerning of the national parties. I could see people moving from actual leftist parties to the greens (in the places where the greens are either liberal or controlled opposition) in other countries, I’m not sure if they’re leftist in some countries), but that’s still a rightward move.
I think Graham Platner, if you take his word for what is in his past and present political mindsets, would be an example of a right-to-left swing, but not done as a politician. Shaun on YouTube is another one that comes to mind potentially, depending on how old he is for whether that qualifies as an under age 25. In the US at least, we don’t really have a strong left wing to draw in people looking for a change, so most of those conversions are happening less in the public sphere and more in corners of the internet, where it hasn’t been enshittified to ensure even those spaces are dominated by tight wing narratives
That’s part of why I’m asking- the vast majority of leftists I know grew up in right wing or centrist circles and moved left on their own, but I don’t know if there are politicians who really reflect that.
Actually, Graham Platner is very relevant and I’m interested in whether people trust him enough to elect him and whether he stays true to the principles he ran on.
Does anyone know of any examples of politicians swinging hard in the opposite direction?
I just learned today that Hitler was a lefty in his early days. True story.
He was always anti-Semitic though. That wasn’t unusual for the times however.
Someone describing themselves as a tree hugging progressive railing against supporting society’s most vulnerable can go and fuck themselves with a fishing rod though.
If she won the congressional bid, she’d been sold out quicker than Fetterman.
Let’s stop pretending like MAGA republicans are upset about the state of SNAP. They get to destroy a program that they already wanted to destroy and get to try and pin the blame on Democrats in the process. It’s a win win for them.
Who’s pretending? We all know they hate America.
“Republican strategist”……
😂
They’re a bunch of scum-sucking motherless goats, but strategically, they’re running rings around the Democratic Party. Having a fucking insane strategy still beats having no strategy.
“I have a very hard time believing that the 42 million people who are on SNAP all qualify,” Li said, speaking on Newsmax. “Someone on Newsmax said last night [that] maybe people should start making better choices so they don’t have to rely on the government day in and day out. What happened to personal responsibility? It used to be an American ideal!”
“We have to be very clear what’s happening here: they built a dependency empire, and it is crumbling right now! And President Trump isn’t starving kids – he’s starving socialist beasts,” Li said.
“He’s starving the handouts for millions of illegal aliens; why are we putting them first when we have so many Americans – millions of Americans – suffering on the streets? Why are we prioritizing illegals? That is a question that Democrats need to answer.”
Wow! What a fucking soul-less bitch!
If I was able to become king I would levy 2000% taxes on news corporations that openly allow misinformation to be spread on their platform. I am so sick of this absolute lying they allow on the “news”. Illegal immigrants DONT QUALIFY FOR SNAP, WIC, OR MEDICARE/MEDICAID.
Yep. Make better choices at the ballot box. Unimpressed with your options in the ballot box? Make better choices in the primaries.
And most of all: go and fucking vote. Every time. In every ballot.
We really need multiple systems built out to inform people of when votes are happening that way there are no excuses and to make sure people get them
You think that people who use public assistance will be allowed to vote? Really?
Of course they will, so long as they stay voting for the GOP. The uneducated are one of their strongest voting blocs
