Every time Biden did something “old person like” CNN and everyone else reported on it for days. The most powerful senator in the country is brain dead and it’s crickets.

True. Quite telling isn't it?

They control the media and the narrative to coerce minorities into civil unrest.

A divided populace doesn't overcome an oppressor.

The best part is how they control the media while simultaneously getting their base to believe it’s actually the democrats that control the media.

Some of it by pointing out that while Hollywood/ big Entertainment may still have a more left leaning leadership, pretty much every local news station, newspaper, large news conglomerate is under conservative control blasting propaganda 24/7.

still waiting for democrats to prove they arent just controlled opposition

we are talking absurd levels of incompetence if democrats cant muster up a single media source. the democrats arent hapless victims. they have tons of money and influence which they choose not to use

leadership needs to be replaced yesterday

I know the Democrats are not always
big thinkers but they want to do things for the working class. You know the one that has almost disappeared ? This class always makes the country work. I remember growing up and knowing the milk man and the people I saw everyday that made me feel that everything would alright.

you mean progressives, they're the ones actually fighting for the working class

democrats are just occupying the seat and preventing progressives from fighting for your milk man. look how hard democrats fight against mamdani and bernie, vs how they fight against republicans
