Mitch McConnell escorted away from cameras after freezing during a news conference - tchncs

Has the appearance of a transient ischemic attack. But apparently “he’s fine” [https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/26/politics/mitch-mcconnell-freezes-press-conference/index.html]

Lmao

The libs bending over backwards to lick his arse despite spending every single day of his life working to kill the poor deserve the same suffering.

Just because he doesn’t have empathy doesn’t mean I don’t.

Paying him empathy is a slap in the face to all of his victims.

You wouldn’t do this shit for anyone else that murders children. I 100% guarantee you that this man has killed hundreds of children in his lifetime.

The issue you libs have is that you believe that the institutional murder that these fucks perform is magically different to murder that isn’t institutional. It allows you to look the other way when they perform horrors that are unspeakably more evil, and then to performatively pretend you’re on some moral high ground for being nice to someone far far far worse than any person that has directly murdered with their hands. You’re not on moral high ground for it, all it does is highlight the incredible lack of principles that liberals have, that institutions and performing in the ritual acts of the civic religion are more meaningful to you than the actual pain, suffering and death they’ve reaped upon people.

It’s one of many reasons so many people continue to stop calling themselves liberals and start calling themselves socialists, anarchists, communists, or some other variant of real leftist.

Spot on man. I used to call myself a democrat and now i hate (yes actually hate) the party with more fiery passion than the Republicans.

it could be the part they play in this farce, the browbeating to vote for them as if it’s my duty to vote for them as a citizen to fight the Rs regardless of the Ds platform. Then they do fuck all and tell me its not that they don’t want to, i just don’t understand politics to know that they cant.

I prefer the naked hated of the R party. L, frankly. Its frightening, but less paternal, insulting, and demeaning.

I hear you, but I think there is still value in voting D, if only to make the Overton window shift slower.

If the election is close or contested, Dems can pretend their hands are tied and let Rs enact their facist bs. If Dems own the house, they’ll need to do something or come up with some other bullshit excuse not to enact more left leaning policies. In an ideal world there’d be real consequences to them if they meandered like they usually do.

It’s not great though, happy to hear your perspective.
