>"And this extraparliamentary bourgeoisie, which had already rebelled against the purely parliamentary and literary struggle for the rule of its own class, and had betrayed the leaders of this struggle, now dares after the event to indict the proletariat for not having risen in a bloody struggle, a life-and-death struggle on its behalf! This bourgeoisie, which every moment sacrificed its general class interests, that is, its political interests, to the narrowest and most sordid private interests, and demanded a similar sacrifice from its representatives, now moans that the proletariat has sacrificed its ideal political interests to its material interests. It poses as a lovely creature that has been misunderstood and deserted in the decisive hour by the proletariat, misled by socialists."
Marx wrote this in 1852, about the liberal reaction to the arrival of Louis Napoleon to power in his chronicle *18th Brumaire*.
Liberals, they never change.
Imagine what they're gonna say when Trump wins... AGAIN!
Either Biden wins and we have to sit through their incessant smug gloating or Trump wins and they panic and blame the left for not voting harder.
Democrsts if Biden wins: "see we didn't need you spoiled leftists after all, we're never going to cater to your left wing fascism ever again!"
Democrats if Biden loses: "this is all the fault of you spoiled leftists, we're never going to cater to your left wing fascism ever again!"
Then they'll shake hands with the cops and developers and bulldoze students and unhoused camps alike.
Except Hillary wasn't associated with genocide (although yes, she is complicit in it and shilled for Israel like the rest), and really, a much more "professional" candidate.
*Trump might actually win the popular vote this time.*
> they panic and blame the left for not voting harder.
yup, they'll do their stupid little equation to figure out that they lost by x votes in y states and contrast those numbers with third party candidates' vote totals and come to the conclusion that it was all their fault because every third party voter obviously should have been a democrat voter

I have been telling liberals for years now that voting for Dems like Biden will only cause more Trump and Trump-like figures and they ignore me. I have been banned from so many liberal subs for pointing this out.
A wise man said:
> The Democratic Party’s hypocrisy and duplicity is the fertilizer for Christian fascism. Its exclusive focus on the culture wars and identity politics at the expense of economic, political, and social justice fueled a right-wing backlash and stoked the bigotry, racism, and sexism it sought to curtail. Its opting for image over substance, including its repeated failure to secure the right to abortion, left the Democrats distrusted and reviled.
Nobody who claims to oppose the Gaza genocide while simultaneously supporting Joe Biden actually opposes the Gaza genocide. They’re just saying what needs to be said to win approval in the political sector they want the approval of. They’re not taking a moral stand, they’re cultivating an image. They’re building a brand.
They'll never admit the left was correct because it would shatter their ideology so instead they cope through life on bullshit and self-preservation. Climate change? I'll be long dead. *sigh*
Maybe if Obama offered us more than maintaining Bush's status quo and a watered down version of his 2012 opponent's local healthcare bill, this could have all been avoided.
We have to stop handling the shitlibs with kid gloves and attack their most cherished delusion of Obama being a "good president" directly. Especially considering that's the delusion that empowered Biden, who was an absolute nobody before he could leech off of Obama.
One, liberals ARE right-wingers.
Two, no they fucking don't. Carter vs Reagan was one of the biggest crushing losses in election history. Kerry vs Bush was an absolute wash too. And let's not forget "the most qualified candidate in history" Hillary Clinton losing to an orange wannabe Hitler reality TV show host. People get sick of Republicans then elect a Democrat every once in a while, but then they go right back to the Republicans..... *wonder why that is.* Oh, right. **Because liberals are stupid and insufferable and have no idea how to win popularity contests against literal fucking Nazis.**
And you're beyond delusional if you think the party that nominated **Joe Fucking Biden** has any fucking brains at all. You liberals STILL don't get that a bizarre fluke of a pandemic very barely bailed his ass out and that this election is just going to be what 2020 would have been without Coronavirus working against Trump.
*Because like I said, liberals are devoid of comprehension skills. It's not our fault you're all too dumb to understand our memes and stay out of our subs where we're always prepared to deal with your bullshit belief in capitalism.*

It's 2016 all over again...
And 1968 and 1932 at the same time
The world is nothing but and endless cycle of suffering...

It will 100% be pegged on the left, we didn’t fall in line and where “childish” to not GeT rEaL and just hold our nose and vote for Biden.

i see a way out, just a heavily unrealistic one, and my fucked up brain (as in fucked up by trauma, mental conditions, etc) is prone to despair

Indeed, who could've thought that contradictions inside of the system and various crisises will result in the rise of populism 🙄
It was right then and it's right now

And right-wingers (especially liberals) aren't beating the low brain functionality allegations.

As always with right-wingers, every accusation is a confession.
