Me Talking About Some Dumb Stuff leftish People Are Saying and Posting

Specifically:

1. January 6 was a “working class protest and party that got a little out of hand” (!)

2. The MAGA base is basically the working class and all about proletarian economic grievances/neoliberal abandonment.

3. “Russia didn’t inade Ukraine.”

4. Iowa can be a blue state again in 2025 cuz it used to have a bunch of Democratic governors.

5. The White House will stop backing genocide in Gaza if the Democrats just stop listening to AIPAC/the Israel Lobby.

6. America is a democracy/popular sovereignty.

7. The US Founders were for and about democracy/popular sovereignty

8. Trump Derangement Syndrome (the sick accusation of “TDS” vs. the smarter acccusation of “TDS”).
