That’s not their purpose, they just need to look the part.
They are comfortable in the ‘my hands are tied’ position.
They can propose bills they know will not make it.
When they have a supermajority, like they had not long ago, they are in trouble.
They have no choice but to stop proposing bills and find reasons to say they are ‘sabotaged’.
They played this game for centuries, still works.
They in this case being libs in liberal democracies, not democrats specifically.
One way to resolve the contradiction between the capitalist class, which the state represents, and the masses, whom the state requires to maintain power is for the masses to believe their representatives want what’s best for them, but are powerless to implement it due to foreigners or nature or some other group, or are trying and it will happen some indeterminate time in the future.
What’s this today?
Been in the fediverse for barely 2 weeks only to be dissapointed by the same manufactured consent from its users (minus the bots).
All of a sudden I see anti-capitalist posts and based comments.
The ‘libs’ in Europe would be the shamelessly named socialist parties.
Invariably being horrible and keeping the status quo with only difference that they now and then throw a bone to the beloved working class and have their larping day on the 1st of may, sing the internationale like they mean it.
You’re on .world. It leans right-wing, essentially trying to be reddit 2 and having de-federated from the explicitly Marxist-Leninist lemmygrad.ml and Communist/Anarchist hexbear.net
I know it’s tough, but consider making another account on an instance that is defederated with as few instances as possible. Then you can pick and choose which instance you yourself don’t want to see anymore.
You can block instances, communities, and users in your settings menu.
They are not afraid of being wrong. They don’t actually care about your well being, they are just here to make money for their corporate friends and themselves.
That’s the thing, the left adhere themselves to unwritten rules and current precedences. Whereas the right will break all precedent and scoff at unwritten rules and will try to change the written ones in their favour. It happens everywhere, it’s not just a US thing
Democrats so afraid of being wrong they don’t even try to do what’s right.
It’s just theatrics. They are as conservative as the Republicans.
They do differ slightly on social issues. But that’s it.
Exploitation wearing a friendly mask
Vs
Exploitation wearing its true face
Either way, the masses are exploited. A better alternative is possible

I know about these 2 also just learned they defederated (and what that means).
Any more tips?

Any recommendations for such an instance? Or recommendations on where to find such information?
You’re on .world. You’re gonna see Reddit libs first and foremost
Blue conservatives
And nothing from lemmygrad since .world defederated from it.

More like too much interest in rules
