I just want to point out that the MAGANazi party tried the culture war bullshit with Zohran Mamdani.

@Lana Narrator: meanwhile in Germany the Centrists tried to get rid of Nazis by doing nazi politics. They failed. Again.
@reep @Lana that wasn't German centrists trying to get rid of Nazis. misread. that was the centrists refusing to let someone else be the Nazis. big tent, opposite of closing the door.

They tried the socialism thing. He waved it away by leaning harder into workers rights.
They tried the trans thing. He waved it away by leaning harder into trans rights.
They tried the immigration thing. He waved it away by leaning harder into immigrant rights.
The lesson here for Centrist Democrats is simple. You don't fight Nazis by giving up ground to the Nazis. You fight Nazis by leaning harder into the wind and standing up for individual rights.
Also, you fight nazis by punching them.

You have to want to win against fascism though.

There are an unfortunate number of Democrats who want to be the Nazis because, for now, that's where the money is.

@Lana Also, New York City can be considered sui generis in some ways, but Andy Beshear also refused to throw trans people under the bus and won re-election in a landslide.

Like a Freudian slip of the tongue he can't help himself. And together with his party he's ushered in a new age of mainstream Nazi collaboration

@Lana THIS!
would be good advice for all parties around the world who have to counter fascist movements. -

It's like they think throwing potential allies to the wolves is a good way to build a coalition.
And inviting the enemy inside the fort is a good way to stave off attack.
Incredibly silly, and I would laugh if it did not do so much harm.

Every single capitalist is first in the queue for Government handouts. They are hypocritical socialists; they don't believe when they say and take the money when demanded and offered.
Calling someone a socialist is far from a slur as it's possible to get

@Lana The problem, as I see it, is that anyone who is "centrist" in this, the Year of our Bob 2026, the clownshow of all possible timelines, is not our friend.
You cannot be a centrist in the face of genocide. You cannot be a centrist in the face of starving American children while billionaires buy yachts to fit inside their other yachts. You cannot be a centrist while everything America has ever built is dismantled in front of you, fed into the voracious maw of capitalist grift.
Those centrists have gladly moved the Overton window to the right and to the right and to the right...always with their compromises and their "let's not revisit the past".
Centrists got us here. We cannot afford to mollycoddle them any longer. This is a fight for our lives, our futures, and chance to fix the rot the centrists have papered over.
