...keep insisting people like this need to be out front of their movements. Name a single person who punches a clock with a regular 9-5 job and cares about stuff having to do with his immediate family, would choose to be part of something like this. Who in the blue hell would ever look at this and say, "Yes. These people get me!"?

MAGA may be Taliban, but these people are fvcking nuttier than a fruitcake.

Somewhere between "Let's let Elon run rampant through the treasury" and "Let's have a bunch of whites sing an old negro spiritual to fight Elon running rampant through the treasury", lies the truth. I hope we find it soon.

i agree that this is a terrible display of optics, but of the two things you mention only one is literally controlling/expanding the power of the executive branch right now

Yup. And my point is, it shouldn't be that hard to find a handful of adults on Capitol Hill who can make an opposing case to that, without breaking out in to a song or chant or any other kind of idiocy. There's a lot of people out there who don't like what's happening but has no one to represent them in response to it. So, they end up just tuning it all out and just work on fending for themselves.

They really can't help themselves. Same for many of the MAGA, there is just no common sense.
The thing is, there are several posters on there that subscribe to this idiocy and have created many of the MAGA.
Strange times

If you look closely, Huey is in the second row.

Whatever happened to a happy medium between two extremes?
My brother, apparently those of us in the middle are too apathetic to slap down the crazies on each side of the spectrum.

That video is cringe and I don’t think OP is wrong that average folks look at that and say “not for me”.

Can't disagree with the premise but I do like the tight camera angles to mask that it's literally 20 people. I am sure they are extremely fringe. Not directed at you, but I'm sure our resident Maga's will try and paint every lib with their broad brush and unleash the rain of laughing emojis.

They are no more retarded than 75% of the posters on this board.

Well, yeah, not for me either.

But something ear-splitting and vomit-inducing doesn’t compel me to dive headfirst into a heaping pile of maggot-infested elephant shit.

I guess I am just weird like that.

No, no. As OP pointed out your average American will see the Nazi's on the overpass in Ohio last week and think "hmmmm, maybe that's bad." but then see these people singing poorly and go "ah, but I have to side with the MAGA because of this!"

I get they aren't all like this. And that's also my point. But even friggin' Chuck Schumer started an awful white guy "we will win" chant, not to mention the DNC Chair candidate who sang a song for her opening speech. There are normal ones out there. Put them out front. You've already got the nutbag contingent. No need to do that shit. Boring is better than crazy.
 
I get your main point and don't necessarily disagree. But the people "Libs of Tic Tok" chose to make examples of don't represent true democrats. It's an extreme point of view that only few will follow.

If I posted a clip of Proud Boys doing the Nazi salute and claimed it to be everyday republicans, that would be wrong as well.
 
Why is it in order to justify not supporting Trump one must first defend literally everything that any Dem anywhere does or says when the right can't offer a legitimate real world not conspiracy based bullshit defense for the literal president of the united states?

President blamed a plane crash on disabled people with no evidence. But instead of talking about that we have to defend every time some rando Dem does something weird?

President also tried to appoint Matt Gaetz as Attorney General knowing full well that he paid a minor for sex.

Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying. People are way more likely to join Nazis that don't sing old negro spirituals than commies that do.

Yup. You're making my point. It should be easy as hell to mount a defense/ offense against Trump and his nonsense. But instead we get the nuts in the OP and these Dem leaders doing this shit...

the democrats and trump's republicans are held to 2 completely different standards

there is simply no denying this fact

Well...then where are the leaders of the Dems mounting a legit offensive? The shit in t he OP is why the phrase "nature abhors a vacuum" was coined.

It should be easy to choose the Dems over MAGA. But it's not. It's damned near impossible. Nothing they do, say or represent is anything close to what "the average American" wants to do with.
you can calm down on the hyperbole

2024 was the first nationwide election in which the dems didn't win the popular vote in 20 years...even after that terrible election cycle, the dems are outnumbered in the house + senate by 9 (out of a total of 535 members)

i won't argue that the dems need new leadership (preferably someone younger than 70), but let's not act like americans want nothing to do with them

Imagine handing out for a week with that lady in the purple in sunglasses. Imagine the things that would come out of her nutjob mouth.

Would be rough “handing out” with her. I wonder if she would say things like “The final seven minutes of the Iowa-Nebraska game determines the fate of the season.” You know, hilarious nonsense like that.

Only time will tell. Until then I suggest you refrain from getting all your news from Libs of Tic Tok.

The world is a much more enjoyable space when you omit the extremes.

Come on, man, who doesn't want to castrate, maim and mutilate kids and send them off to drag queen shows rather than math class?!?!?!

You keep ignoring the point. Americans don’t want nothing to do with THAT. They need to get the Shapiros, Fettermans and Klobuchars out there being the face of the national party to stop the hemorrhaging. Or just keep pretending all is well and they have a grasp on things. There needs to be real “Anti-Trump” that’s up to the task. So far, this shit only makes him look more appealing.

I know Belem can’t handle this assessment but that kinda makes me even more correct.
