If he won’t stand up against the genocide his party supports and calls the national freaking guard on BLM protestors, a move so fashist it impressed even Trump:
“I was very happy with the last couple of days, Tim,” Trump continued. “You called up big numbers and the big numbers knocked them out so fast it was like bowling pins.”
Cool. Show us how the far-right in America really likes Tim Walz then (one single positive comment about an event that happened years ago is not enough to show that they like someone, sorry). Especially considering they were all pissed off Harris didn’t pick Shapiro.
I’m saying don’t cheerlead people like Harris or Walz. Don’t portray them as cuddly dads or stalwart progressives when they aren’t. Be critical of them and demand better.
Yet everyone here is trying to turn this into some lib-lovefest for Harris/Walz, dutifully portraying them in the best way possible, shouting down any criticisms, desperately trying to uphold the Burgfriedenspolitik. Almost everyone here has bought into the “it’s the evil usurpers vs the forces of light” narrative when the truth is they’re both differently colored masks for the same genocidal settler empire.
Yes. Everyone. I’m totally doing that right now. Look at me just lovingly lovely love on Tim Walz who I have said nothing about beyond him being one of two viable VP choices and suggesting that the American far-right doesn’t actually like him.
Which is basically the equivalent of sucking someone’s cock, am I right?
And I guess that whole stopping responding to me comment was a lie.
You are though, you really are adamant about upholding Burgfriedenspolitik within the dem base, I just don’t think I will be able to explain to you what I mean by that within this context.
You haven’t DM’d me so… is this your request for the last post?
As for your adherence to Burgfriedenspolitik, it’s demonstrated by your very first reply to me, dimissing my point because of the instance where I have a second account.
Understanding the point of view of a Hexbear user and thinking the way it’s presented is ridiculously aggressive and full of people who come across as they have no joy in their life and live to be angry is a good way to present that point of view are two different things.
This is not about your point of view no matter how much you try to make it about that.
It doesn’t matter what justification you use to keep burying your head in the sand, you’re still blinding yourself in a desperate attempt to safeguard some hope about the upcoming election no matter how false it may be.
No, you keep trying to deflect from his shitty record to me having a second account on hexbear. I just keep trying to have you take an actual look at the guy and not just blindly cheerlead whoever the dems put in front of you.
I am not a moderator in this community. Believe it or not, I am not able to shut you up or shut you down. You can post a response criticizing Walz in reply to every person on this thread and there would be nothing I could do about it.
Gotta love how people on Lemmy claim you’re trying to silence them.
If you’re worried about people deflecting from your claims, maybe your claims aren’t very good and you should find some claims that people can’t deflect.
Since you seem to have forgotten your own post, I’ll help you out:
No, you keep trying to deflect from his shitty record to me having a second account on hexbear. I just keep trying to have you take an actual look at the guy and not just blindly cheerlead whoever the dems put in front of you.
I can’t deflect from anything you write. However, you are the one who has decided you don’t need to talk about Walz anymore and just bicker with me instead. I didn’t force you to do that. I can’t even force you to reply.
He waited to verify that there was a rioter and looter problem before calling them in. Explicitly so he wasn't calling them in on mere protesters, but looters who deserve it.
you don’t understand, those people definitely deserved it. they were the bad protestors, not the good protestors. the foot-soldiers of the state only attack people who deserve it. this is basic freedomology.
If you actually listen to his recounting of the situation… Yeah, actually. I would say that the way he handled that was absolutely the way a (good) dad would.
Including the bit afterwards where they tell you they were wrong for the initial overreaction, but they did it out of fear for your safety.
But after actually listening to why you’re mad, you talk it out and guess what? He recognizes that your anger is valid and opened a dialogue to help fix those problems.
If that’s not “great dad” energy, then I dunno what is.
But let’s not let actual facts get in the way of you pretending to be a progressive on the internet to make leftists look bad.
Got any links because the search engines are cluttered with articles fact checking trump who keeps wanting to take credit for calling in the national guard.
edit:

How can I if I only get downvoted with no replies? I’m not even arguing here just asking what it is that I haven’t seen.
Ok, but the poster above is saying that Walz admitted to being in the wrong and that his was an overreaction. I would like to know the context of this.
Casual racism is what laid the foundation of his cult. He stoked the flames for 8 years with an obsession when Obama hurt his fee-fees at a correspondents dinner and he’s been riding on that wave this whole time
Forgive my cynicism, but even if they get caught for egregiousness, I can’t imagine they won’t just get a “cost of doing business” slap on the wrist. I can only hope I’m wrong.
I agree the fines that are issued for these companies is way to low. But on the bright side the FTC is actually doing their job and if it is making C-suite executives even the slightest bit nervous I’m for it. Yep I know that is a low bar but it’s something
It’s absolutely something and a direct result of Democrats being in power.
Could you ever image a republican even asking about price fixing?? They’d probably be passing tax cuts for the offending corporations instead of fighting for the consumer.
It’s not that they’re indifferent- not that they don’t care. It’s punishment. Anything to make their lives worse is a good thing. The prisoners “deserve” this treatment. Also, they’re slaves and have no real standing to challenge the treatment under the law (source: vibes).
So the bear was already dead and rather than miss his flight he decided to dump it somewhere that other people would have to deal with it? I get that it isn’t the right thing to do, but this is rather minor in the grand scheme of things that messed up politicians do. I know people love to hate on anyone that they think takes votes away from Democrats. I know Biden is no longer running but I can give you a list of things Biden did that is way more awkward than this and no one here would have said a thing. Heck, they would have been calling people fascist for pointing them out.
Have you ever hit an animal? I never said it was normal. I said it was already dead and that there are far bigger issues to worry about. Is it weird that Biden is okay giving Israel more weapons being used to slaughter children?
Bro, it would be one thing if he hit the bear and just left it there. Accidents happen. Heck, I could even understand talking the body with him, especially if he intended to make use of it’s skin/meat (waste not, and all that). But the point where I draw the line is when he decided that his not-drunken actions have inconvenienced him and he irresponsibly dumped the bear in central park, rather than taking it somewhere to be disposed of properly. Say nothing of the attempt to stage it as a bike accident as a joke. True psychopath behavior right there.
I am not sure we should be playing death count olympics. Besides, it’s a bit weird that Hindus only care about Hindus and we didn’t hear shit when civilians were dying already.
I think nobody really wants to talk about it, because this is sadly just what happens in a power vacuum after dethroning an existing leadership. Lots of people think there is no law and order and try to grab power by whatever means.
Its not like this isnt preventable tho, the military and police are still there and should be perfectly functional. They either dont care, are scared or are with the terrorists.

Minnesota State Fair is in a couple weeks and the DFL booth always brings the fire with their shirt selection. I’ll definitely be buying a few this year.
It’s not about the spelling… Trump has trouble reading so he always sounds things out that he doesn’t quite understand or when he’s unsure of himself. It’s a pretty standard coping strategy for people who are still learning to read.
He does this constantly: Whenever he slows down (weirdly) during one of his endless rants it’s usually before a word he has difficulty with. Examples of words he regularly has trouble with: Chinanuclear, Venezuela, felony
In the past he’s said, “United Stage”, “respectered”, and often starts making noise sounds like, “ding!”, “boom!”, and “bam!” to distract from his mistakes… Like some elementary school kid in class that’s been forced to read out loud.
My personal estimate is that he has somewhere around a 4th or 5th grade reading level. After reading this, if you hear one of his speeches it will suddenly become so obvious that he has trouble reading that you’ll wonder how you never noticed before.
Everything that’s ever appeared on his teleprompter is the simplest words possible except in cases where avoiding complicated words is impossible. I’m certain he practices these special words with his handlers regularly and tries to repeat their emphasis of certain parts of words which is why he says some words strangely (e.g. whenever he says “China”).
