Short Form Videos!Who could have predicted the gold horders would have been right all along.
lol, ok. I’m not interested in people who are not interested in learning, or listening. So peace out.
Blaming “protest‑non‑voters” for ICE brutality misses why Kamala Harris lost the 2024 election, and why Democrats keep failing vulnerable communities.
Yes, Gaza cost Harris votes: about 422,000 Democratic‑leaning voters stayed home or voted third‑party, with roughly 122,380 directly linked to protest (Al‑Shabaka). But protest voters were a smaller factor compared to the 6.8 million former Biden voters who switched sides or stayed home due to broader campaign failures (Common Dreams).
The Democratic Party’s own autopsy points to larger failures: voter disenchantment as millions switched sides or stayed home, a chaotic primary process, abandoning the working class to court Republicans and donors, alienating young and minority voters over Gaza and the economy, and losing Black and Latino voters who shifted toward Trump (NPR).
ICE brutality isn’t a Trump‑only problem. Obama deported a record 2.7 million people (Migration Policy Institute). Biden’s Title 42 expulsions removed over 2.5 million migrants without asylum hearings (PBS NewsHour). The agency’s culture of violence was built by successive administrations.
When we blame individuals who refused to vote for a candidate supporting genocide, we ignore why Democrats offered such a candidate. The answer isn’t that voters failed the party, it’s that the party failed voters. A political machine funded by corporate donors cannot deliver protection for vulnerable people.
If we want to stop ICE brutality, we need to confront the system that produces both Republican and Democratic presidents who expand its powers. Focusing on “protest‑non‑voters” lets that system off the hook.

Curious if any of you could do a better job of explaining this persons position here.
You should watch the video.
Barbarism.
This man is a demon, it is true, but you can do better than using a misogynistic slur, come on now.
Just in time for war.
Serious purity testing here. What he actually says:
I’m transphobic!
This all seems very reasonable and fine. I’d vote for him.

U.S. troops to Iran? Join tomorrow’s (3/7) nationwide protests!
BREAKING: New reports suggest that the Pentagon may be preparing to deploy the 82nd Airborne Division to take part in a ground invasion of Iran. The Washington Post reports that this elite unit has been instructed not to participate in scheduled exercises, and is awaiting further orders. Will they be the first “boots on the ground” as Trump escalates the war with Iran to new heights?

😔 Sorry for all the spam!
I merged the bug from a few weeks ago back into the code after trying to reorganize it to make it better to manage. Thankfully, because of the first time, I have tools now to deal with this kind of thing. I’m in the process of purging over 500 posts from the feed that are all dupes.
✅[resolved] I am aware of a duplication issue with presstv.ir. Duplication should be resolved, but existing duplicates still exist. Working on removing them currently.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Hey!
🪲 Bug Fix: I discovered that only the Undetermined language was set for all communities. I have updated them to accept all languages.
On Lemmy, your default language is set in your profile. You might have set your language to “English” at some point, and in doing so were not able to comment on threads here, since the only language the comms allowed was “undetermined” which is the default language for all comms and accounts (to my understanding).
Introducing c/ecosocial, Green & Indigenous News!
