  1. I need a hashtag. Can anyone help?

    I need a hashtag for comments on posts by people who are supporting the DNC, either intentionally or as useful idiots. We're seeing more and more people who are actually claiming that the Democrats will make everything "normal" again, and reminding us that Obama and Biden and Kamala Harris were SO much more "moral and respectable" than that crude and foul-mouthed Trump. Somehow they are completely oblivious to the fact that Obama and Biden and Kamala supported the surveillance state, supported the extrajudicial murder of anyone in the world including children, and supported the genocide of Gaza. That the Democratic Party itself is a wholly owned subsidiary of the oligarchs, just as the Republican Party is. That they play the good cops to the Republicans bad cops, but they are •just• as fascistic in the end.

    So... What would be a good hashtag to identify posts and posters like that? #DNCshills ? #DNChypocrisy ? #DNCtrolls? #Neoliberal ?

    None of those seem exactly right. I'm hoping someone smart out there will be able to come up with something more apropos.

    It's not a mistake. It's quite deliberate. I don't know what it takes for people to realize that the Democrats are just Republicans in drag, serving the same fascist oligarchs. But deluding yourself into thinking that the Democrats will somehow make anything better is simply pathetic.

    They don't do it. They never do it. Even when they have supermajorities AND the presidency, they don't do it. If anything they use their power to advance the cause of fascism even more strongly than the Republicans do when they're in power.

    "Look forward, not back". That was the excuse the Democrats gave for not investigating (much less prosecuting) torture and war crimes. They support Israel's genocide of children in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. They enabled the surveillance state well before Trump was on the horizon. Obama gave himself the unaccountable power to kill anyone, anywhere, for any reason—and used that power to kill a 16-year-old American child, along with uncountable numbers of children and innocent civilians in the Middle East.

    Democrats are fascists, just like the Republicans. If you can't see that, you're part of the problem.

    Here's the thing: Democrat voters are convinced that the DNC will undo everything that Trump and the Republicans have done.

    They are tragically wrong about that. Much of the damage would take decades to be undone, if it can be undone at all.

    But more critically, the DNC has •absolutely NO desire• to undo ANYTHING but the most cosmetic of Trump's damage. They serve the same oligarch donors that Trump does. If anything, they'll pretend to be trying to make things better (as they always pretend) and fail every time, using the classic rotating villain strategy.

    They will also advance the fascist agenda as stealthily as they can.
