Might as well put Ukraine, BLM, and Islam up there while you’re at it. Near as I can tell, the only clear difference between the two parties is on abortion, and even then the difference seems mostly rhetorical. One side is saying “states’ rights” gleefully while the other side is saying “states’ rights” mournfully. Other than that, you’d have trouble telling them apart if you just looked at policy.
Don’t forget #metoo. Once people started coming forward about Biden, Bill Clinton, and so on, the democrats torpedoed the whole thing. It practically vanished overnight as it became clear liberals don’t believe all women and turn into misogynistic sex pest apologists when someone on their team gets scratched.
Agreed. Not an accelerationist but my take on it now is that whatever accelerates the internal destruction of the imperial cores is generally the opposite of acceleration- if anything, progressive development, in the broader global context- just like how Nazi Germany and any other such regime should have fallen sooner than later. With industrial genocide ongoing in front of the entire world’s eyes, with the west marching towards WW3 on multiple fronts- this is just how it is.
If anything, Klanmala is probably the actual accelerationist (WW3) candidate anyways, and just as genocidal and fascist.
The Pakistan(?) flag as well. It wasn’t Trump that used the military to oust Imran Khan, it was Biden. Might even be argued (if they actually do pursue peace) that Ukraine should only be on the Democrat’s rail.
also the intersex/non-binary duo flag i see there, seeing as antitrans bigotry rarely discriminates between such things. and that for many non-binary people that’s a trans experience.

And the Mexican flag given Klanmala’s border policy stances.
I really don’t want Trump to win again, but it would be the best thing for the Democratic Party to lose again after tacking right.
This is what I keep coming back to, is “Would we be in this position if they had been disciplined in 2016 or 2020”
The party doesn’t learn anything. Ever.

It occurred to me afterwards that I should extend this, to add that
