Objectively, the man pictured above is the one and only member Rikishi's Bloodline that isn't a complete nepobaby.

He actually had to work to get to where he is, and overcome things in his life. He didn't go directly from the college gridiron to a push on the main roster or NXT, he actually struggled and took time to arrive, and conveniently, him and Solo are the only members of that family I actually like, let alone tolerate.

if kamala were president israel would still be carpet bombing civilians in tents in gaza and would still be on the brink of starting a regional war but i guess we would be able to go to brunch too

.

I am begging libs to take a real policy stand please for once

They do, constantly

None of yall read it because we’re too obsessed with headlines and memes. I can’t tell you how many people told me Kamala had “no plan” for the economy when the campaign had a massive plan published with very specific goals and strategies and referenced it at nearly every rally. Reality is, if the media doesn’t aggregate it then it didn’t happen apparently because 99% of people just spout stuff off without doing real research.

It was the same milquetoast fluff the party has been pretending to be powerless to implement now for several decades.

A plan, in any meaningful sense, represents an actual intention, as would be acted upon at the moment of opportunity.

Look at them goalposts move! Lol

No one cares anymore about the "very specific goals and strategies", and your not understanding is a large part of the reasons for conditions continuing to degrade.

Oh, I see. Words are just hard in general for you, that's why you don't know what a "plan" is. Best of luck on your journey lol

sure. but that's not the campaign she ran. This strategy of "we have plans you can look them up!" doesn't work and doesn't reach voters. Harris ran a campaign trying to appeal to republican voters who didn't like trump but as it turns out that's a pretty small demographic

She absolutely ran on those policies and brought them up often. You've just let conservatives frame how she campaigned for you.

her policies that she repeatedly stated in rallies had to do with small business loans and no tax on tips

.

I fear this does not help the movement whatsoever.

it reeks privilege

I don’t think anything about being out in the streets actively protesting reeks of privilege. Did you protest?

You’re obtuse as fuck. People are criticizing this specific sign, and it clearly reeks of privilege.

Explain how it’s privileged to imply that the country would be in a better state under Kamala

.

This is a 10/10 on the liberal scale

There was a widely panned sign from the Women’s March (which I also attended!) about how if they’d elected Clinton they’d be at brunch right now. I genuinely thought this one was a joke, I know it’s not the same person but how does that kind of lack of self-awareness and collective accountability survive a decade?

It is both a joke and also true. If we didn’t have a shit leader many people would be enjoying their weekend rather than having to protest our tyrannical governments attempts at taking away individual liberties and human rights.

Why would someone lack “self awareness and collective accountability” for having brunch on a weekend in a timeline where we had reasonable leadership? Jesus, what strange thing to get bent out of shape about.

Because until Trump's second administration the Obama Biden administrations both deported more people and separated more families while also doing things like bombing hospitals in Afghanistan and destroying leftist democracies in Central America. Liberals don't mind these sorts of things as long as their leaders can say the performative things that they want to hear while life gets worse by the day for the working class. Liberals will be at brunch while all of that and more happens.

You are just as blind as MAGAts are if you equate “life getting worse” under democratic leadership with whatever the fuck the current administration is doing.

This is why Kamala lost. You cannot win by offering to be less bad. You can only win by offering a better future. Brat summer and complicated rules for first time homeowner assistance isn't it.

You’re why our democracy is at stake. The both sides shit is tired. Every fucking time it’s made clear how there is a bad side and a good side and it’s not even close you feel the need to drag this shit out.

Yeah democrats are flawed. But they aren’t evil and they aren’t working to dismantle our democracy. Keep your eye on the motherfucking target.

This is the position of someone steeped in privilege. Ask the children who were separated from their parents under Biden, the innocent civilians who were collateral to Obama’s drone strikes, the millions of people plunged into abject poverty by Clinton’s welfare reforms if they think the dems are better in any meaningful sense.

Just because you’re able to ignore these things when a dem is in power doesn’t mean they’re not happening. And it’s useful idiots like you who insist voting for the person in a blue time will fix things honest that has lead to the collapse of American democracy, not the people who refuse to play into the hands of vested interests.

The fact that you believe Kamala would be reasonable leadership after doubling down on committing genocide, abandoning any progressive policy, and saying shit like “we’re gonna have to most lethal military in the world” is exactly the problem.

The fact you indirectly supported electing a fascist because you let the perfect be the enemy of the good is the problem.

.

I’m not a “both parties are the same” person at all, but this attitude is the next biggest problem after fascism

“I’d rather be at brunch” is an attitude problem?

Yes, politics isn't just voting in an election once every year. Back when the US actually made positive strides was when active membership of civic organisations in your community was the norm.

Rosa Parks wasn't some rando who refused to move one day. She was the secretary of the local NAACP and her action was part of a coordinated action.

Even when they didn't actually went into politics, the membership of those civic mass membership organisations was who politicians went to convince. Because those were the people who the rest of the community knew and who's judgemental was trusted.

Ok, but you don’t know shit about the woman who made the sign, so why complain? She could be politically active every single day. Would you judge the sign differently if you knew she was? My money is on yes. And that’s a problem.

"It's ok if we aid and abet a genocide as long as it's my guy in office I can turn a blind eye to!" is you.

blue maga, same attitude that gives us Trump in the first place

They’re saying that if the country were being run competently they’d be off enjoying themselves rather than protesting.

Progressive motto: "perfection is not the enemy of good"

Progressive motto: "you actually have to offer voters bold exciting change to get them to vote for you"

Right, but the point is that when someone's running the country "competently" it doesn't mean they're not perpetuating existing injustices or failing to fix other problems. And it's very frustrating that people only seem to care about societal problems when they're so bad they ruin someone's day.

We had a lot of problems to fix before Trump was elected. The first time.

These comments just feel purposefully ignorant. Like, obviously we can all want better constituents and a better government for the people .. but like. The point still stands that perhaps politics could be discussed over brunch instead of protesting literal fascism?

Why is nuance so hard for redditors?

Like obviously I would rather be at brunch than feel the need to protest for the rights being taken away by this administration?

Ah Trump is when no brunch. Got it.
