  • When the people are being beaten with a stick, they are not much happier if it is called “the People’s Stick.”
  • If you took the most ardent revolutionary, vested him in absolute power, within a year he would be worse than the Tsar himself.

  • I don’t think anything about Biden set “the commies on fire”, but he was elected long before 7 October 2023, so he didn’t have to contend with all the well-deserved outrage over US support for Israel’s genocide in Gaza. And yes, I’m well aware it’ll likely get worse under Trump. But not being as bad as the next guy simply doesn’t seem to inspire voter turnout for some reason.

    It’s kind of like selling a new brand of chocolate, and advertising it as being “not quite as bad as Hershey’s” (yes, I know, it’s a low bar), then blaming customers for “sitting on the couch” and not buying it. Oh, and lets not forget that both chocolate bars advertise a policy of “10% of profits goes to genocide”.

    Democrats are up in arms about people not buying their shitty chocolate bar, when any decent person would just stop eating chocolate if those were the only two options available. But the Democrats refuse to change the recipe or the packaging because it’s their position that nothing needs changing - it’s the voters who are wrong. Does that sound like an argument that’s likely to win over any voters?




  • WASHINGTON — The leaders of the Democratic National Committee announced they plan to learn absolutely nothing from their embarrassing loss to President-elect Donald Trump, multiple sources confirmed.

    “We learned a lot this time around. The most important takeaway from all of this is that we have to stay the course. In 2028 we plan to put forward the most disliked candidate yet. The primary process will probably be truncated, maybe we will skip it altogether. It all depends on what our biggest corporate donors want,” said DNC chair Jaime Harrison. “But we can’t do this without raising money. If you thought our fundraising efforts were annoying before, you haven’t seen anything yet. We also want to congratulate our friends in the Republican party, they played a great game and we can’t wait to work with them more.”

    Lisa Fouts, a reluctant member of the Democrat party, is not sure what to do from here.

    “This wasn’t supposed to happen. It was supposed to be an easy win. Trump is a felon, a rapist, and he’s legitimately losing his mind. But no, the DNC fucked everything up at every level. They just assumed people would vote their way despite doing nothing for years, it makes me want to puke,” said Fouts. “The DNC already sent an email with the subject line ‘Shame On You’ and it said I didn’t send them enough money to get them to win. Then they sent a follow up email that called me a ‘spoiled child’ and then left me a voicemail saying they are going to kick my dog if I even consider looking into a third part candidate.”

    Satire or real life? It’s honestly hard to tell the difference nowadays.
