"Housing is a human right. Build new, publicly-owned social housing, strictly regulate investment properties, establish universal rent control, and guarantee the right to counsel for all tenants." - DSA 


Gotta love the contradiction in this line of the manifesto.


Housing is a human right. Also, we will regulate people who want to invest in building houses.


Who would want to live in a world where all codified freedoms are stripped away from individuals and are handed over to a bureaucracy, free to do whatever it wants to do? It's only a "human" right for government humans.

"Blue, no matter who" is actually more advertised than the counterfactual.

But that would be assuming you apply the same standards to both parties, so nevermind.


If they had the same standards, there would be one party.

Dems never cared if Platner won or lost his election. All they cared about was that his persona drew in the largest donations compared to any other candidate; electability wasn't even an issue to consider. Maine with a population of about 1.5 million managed to donate over 10 million dollars to Platner, averaging about 300,000 dollars in donations per week in a tiny state like Maine. Dems have a spending problem, not only with government in general, but also with elections. Kamala blew through 1.18 Billion in 107 days. So she raised plenty of cash. For the DNC, it's all about the cash first, and the people last.

False allegations are certainly not "rare" in politics, where high-stakes power and money are at play.

Trump-related search terms appeared more than 38,000 times across over 5,300 files just from the Epstein files alone, many regarding anonymous accusations from unsourced tips. Rare? Unlikely.

.....At worst, you are defending a strawman.

It's a strange dogma considering false allegations do exist, bordering on misandry.


The real tragedy describes all those working Democrats who supported and donated to Platner to "fight the power," only to have the same power pull the plug.


They won't be returning a single dollar. The establishment DNC deliberately used the most unelectable TDS candidates during prime fundraising windows just to grab the cash and dump the candidates at the last minute. Bait and switch Kamala style.

Some women are too lazy to get an abortion. Some Jews are too Zionist to abort a clump of the future.

Many people conflate civic duty with slavery. Those are people who face zero consequences for having zero civic duties.

Because the "we" in that sentence is referring to the American people to which I am a part of genius.


So you helped elect him as part of the "we Americans who elected"


So interesting. You definitely had everyone here fooled.

I prefer a president who acts like a grown up and cares about the well being of the people he governs.


So why did you type "We elected him" if you didn't prefer him?


As I said, it's normally a very low bar to troll people who already chose to hate you 12 years ago and counting. But Trump has no cognitive problem controlling his devout enemies with their chosen hate. 12 straight years, and getting better with time.

I was never American, and you stopped being an American long ago. People of the world claim your allegiance, and your country no longer exists. There are no Americans of...(insert identity) left within your non-existent borders. You have no language, no borders, and certainly no culture.


No nation, it's just an economic zone with consumers passing through.

Over 50 years of the "war on poverty"...and what are the results?


Forget the entire nation; how are communist-adjacent states like New York and California "progressing" with that broad trickle-down welfare extended to even non-Americans?


its just that eveveryone else realizes its not the panacea they think it is.


By everyone, you meant the entrenched government managerial class. The middleman that siphons off their fair share before the trickle goes downstream. Like billionaire Jay-Z often said, "If you don't own it, you don't control it."


Jay-Z is an American of color who gets it.
