Obama’s comments appear in a new video supporting Gavin Newsom’s Proposition 50 which would allow the California legislature to draw new congressional boundaries ahead of the midterms
Barack Obama has entered the political fray ahead of November’s special election in California, accusing Republicans of attempting to “rig the next election” in a new ad backing Governor Gavin Newsom’s Proposition 50, a ballot measure that could reshape the state’s congressional map.
“Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years,” Obama says in the 30-second ad, urging voters to approve the proposal. “You can stop Republicans in their tracks.”
He’s a capitalist. Fascist I don’t think so. We have to stop purity testing left candidates, it’s a trap. So what if he doesn’t have every opinion we have - he’s more in touch with the average voter on those issues, frankly. We need to start thinking like we want to win, not like we want to be right.
He’s an American politician. Of course he is.
Inb4 I’m not calling you (specifically you) out. The you is aimed at “People of America” as a whole
independent of left or right, I’d like to say you guys need to elect someone that doesn’t expand that list further more:

In other words, Could You All Please Stop Fucking Raping The “Global South”? Pretty Please???
And I’m using the word rape both metaphorically and literal at the same time. Also, I’m not downplaying the word. I’m just pointing out the fucked up things US (as a nation) did to all of us outside of “global north”, “western civilization”, “first world” or whatever term you guys keeping using to refer to us, the “inferior” class of “subhumans” people.
The US was always imperialist, but now the masks are off and Trump is just bringing what US did to other countries (see the list above) inwards to US. That’s why most of the population are worried.
Except for the few leftist that called out what US always was, most people aren’t worried of US raping other countries. But they are now worried because the military force is turning inwards against the enemy within.
And has Newsom said he’d like to add to that list?
Leftists in USA do need to band together, and I feel like it is more difficult to do so because of our individually. Most of our goals are common.
