Unlike the raid on John Bolton, the targeting of Omar has elicited zero condemnation from NYT, WSJ, and Washington Post.

    They only exist to hold your hand and tell you it’s okay as they pull us further down with their friends from across the aisle.

      I’m just tired of being told by liberals who want to wash their hands that their politics play no role in this.

      You don’t get fascism without liberal parties playing nice with fascists. Normally this is when I’d call ol boy @[email protected] in to back me up with the historical context, because we already went through and dealt with this.

      Fascism doesn’t happen when you have a lib or socdem party who resists it at any cost. Fascism happens when, over time, the corporate party thinks they can place nice with the fascist party. The libs end up focusing on sabatoging the socialist parties because they see fascists as better partners to capital. And inevitably the libs get run over once the fascist have been allowed to cultivate enough power.
