Most of the "Democrats in Congress are lovely people that hate their own voters" stuff is a bit overblown, but then there's this:

It's going to be interesting to see what the long term implications are and how they impact American's view towards "socialist" policies. By the time the 2022 elections roll around a huge amount of Americans will have received various amounts of money from the government.

I'm pretty optimistic all things considered.

Not by an insurmountable margin that can't be overcome at some point in the next 4 years. Democrats need to create and push messaging touting their bill and GOP resistance, as well as socialist policies to build support.

I have trouble feeling any hope about it. The mainstream dems are trained to recoil from any accusation of socialism, there's no way they're going to start putting up actual socialist poo poo like jobs and housing guarantees and UBI as a party platform. We got people acting like we've achieved some progressive dream legislation with Sleepy Joe channeling his inner Tio Bernie because normal folk are gonna get $1400, once. Nobody wants to even touch the plain fact that UBI is not really a help with the way it works in most of these chud hell states. The next two elections are going to be defined by reaction to the illegitimate stolen fake election. Without the unifying target of getting Trump out to hold some center for the libs to rally around, the next generation of MTGs and Boeberts and Cawthorns are gonna swoop on in, and we're opening the throttle on the way to Crazytown 2024.

This would be like me asking “are you saying we... shouldn’t help people who need it right now and should focus on an infrastructure bill?”

No. That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying you’re fooling yourself if you think a bill that massive won’t be wasted on anything but infrastructure, save for a small portion of it. It will be a $2-4tn bill with infrastructure in it, not a $2-4tn infrastructure bill (but they will call it an infrastructure bill to gain support). And it will take them MONTHS to pass it, if they even do, which is time wasted that could be used helping people who need it right now.

There are people out there who haven’t been able to pay rent for months (which is still accruing, by the way, leading to more debt), or have months and months of back owed rent.

If the $2-4tn infrastructure bill helps people like that, cool. If not, then I think our efforts should go elsewhere simply because congress doesn’t seem to be able to juggle two big things at once.

E: plus, why wait til September? So they can pack the bill and have something to campaign on during midterms?

"we raised everyone's wages" is an easy victory that is very straight forward to explain to the population in how it helped them.

We figured out a way to bail out banks for hundreds of billions in 2008. trillions were into the stock market last summer.

We can figure this out too.

But we shouldn’t because it’s hard?

I got bit by a dog last week while riding my bike. It didn't notice I was behind the people walking it, saw me, jerked the leash out of the person's hand and did a grab and release on my calf.

How was that my fault?

Nah, gently caress terry crews.

When someone came out about experiences of a toxic workplace, racism, and sexism and they had previously supported Terry Crews after he came out, Terry licked the network boot.

gently caress him

If you think they’re going to be able to strike you with cause anyway, the best thing you can do is make an impression on the remaining potential jurors.

loving sick, two days ago a white gunman goes on a racist killing spree and is taken alive and it's summed up by local law enforcement as 'he had a bad day ', then yesterday the candidate the Dems killed #metoo to elect says white americans with a loving insane heritage fetish have been racismed. Do we get to go back to being told if we say "they're not delivering on campaign promises" you're a GOP enabler again now?

When you think about it, a greater proportion of Europe’s population is white than America’s, so screwing them out of vaccines was the least racist thing ‘someone’ has ever done.

The so‐called America First policy has been racist since its inception, long before the pandemic, and it is disastrous for America’s interests in the long term, but the alternatives in this case never involved the third world getting a fair share of vaccines.
