let me say it again:

Trump didn’t win by a majority of votes. compared to 2020 his numbers in 2024 didn’t improve significantly.

so what changed?

#Israel and the crushing of #StudentSpring protests brought the plausible deniability for Democrats to lose the popular vote.

YET THE POPULAR VOTE DOES NOT ELECT A PRESIDENT

my alarm bells went off by the speed in which the ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES where coming in.

ELECTORS DO NOT HAVE TO FOLLOW VOTERS TO SEAT A POTUS

the EC voted Trump in.

the only reason Trump has gone after foreign students is because Biden attacked the #StudentSpring while both Clintons idly watched and called antisemitic anybody calling out zionists for their gleeful support of #Gaza #Palestinian #genocide

and Bill Clinton gave us Putin, peddling globalization as a capitalist kumbaya and not the gringo, corporatist fascism that it is.

anybody yassing HRC and any Clinton these days need to take all the damn seats and STFU

there is no future with the Democratic Party.

the only ones with a clear vision are AOC, David Hogg and Bernie Sanders ―who isn’t even a Democrat.

yet Bernie has had all along the cheat code for a new party: all progressive democrats should be on ballots as INDEPENDENT as well.

🗣 USA’S LARGEST VOTING BLOCK CANNOT VOTE IN PRIMARIES

and after the party’s treachery with #Ukraine #Gaza #StudentSpring they have less reasons to join the party.

2026 MUST BE THE YEAR OF THE INDEPENDENT

the silver lining about #TikTok is that it is further radicalizing the largest and brownest of USA’s generations.

Biden Democrats sealed the deal with their attacks on the youth, not just during the #StudentSpring but how they treated young, anti- #genocide incumbents. the “good guys” brushed off #Gaza ―and the colonialism it represents― as a real issue. now, more than half of the 180 million Americans using it will end up, in 4 years, singing anticapitalist chants in Mandarin or Cantonese.

2024 isn't about Trump winning. he virtually had the same amount of votes in 2020.

TOLD DEMOCRATS
TO NOT FUCK IT UP
AND THEY DID.

2024 was supposed to be the year of the Zillennial wave and all the goodwill and enthusiasm progressives like AOC amassed for the party during the Midterms in 2024, the fascist-lite zionist gerontocracy squandered it in the #StudentSpring

calling Trump childish, normalized GOP fascism. Americans do not see fascists as existential threat thanks to Biden et al

#GENX FOR POTUS
#GENZ FOR NEW VOTERS
#MILLENNIALS FOR BROKERS

USA doesn't have the political culture for coalitions like the ones in #France. we're trapped in the cartel politics of the GOP/DNC duopoly.

so what kind of coalitions can be made when people say they want to vote for a Democrat but not THAT one? Generational.

as i have said, Democrats fucked it up when they gaslit the youth during #StudentSpring. they forgot ZOOMERS stopped the 'red wave' in 2022

if 2024 weren't about the TRILLIONS that the house of Saud has dangled in the face of the American oligarchy and their kakistocrats and kleptocrats, we wouldn't have had the unhinged reaction of the elites to kids in tents on university lawns.

#StudentSpring should have been the wake up call for everybody who is a registered Democrat.

the reaction was seriously unhinged but not unprecedented. we latinoamericanos know USA exports fascism and we've seen this tragedy in 3 acts before.

LET ME SAY THIS AGAIN
& WITH THE CHEST

the Democratic Party did not hold primaries in earnest this year... against Biden
thehill.com/homenews/race-poli

do you know who got primaries in the Democratic Party?

BLACK ANTIFASCIST INCUMBENTS

it's bullshit that the party's Black apparatchicks know better

if they did, AT THE VERY LEAST, they would have looked at the demo numbers and defended the #StudentSpring in solidarity with Zoomers, the biggest block of new voters

but they didn't

right as i finished my Cerro Maravilla posts, i see this by @AnarchoNinaWrites
mastodon.social/@AnarchoNinaWr

immediately thought what do South African Elon Musk, South African David Sacks and American Bill Ackman have in common?

#GAZA

a misnomer, really. these 3 "billionaires" are made men by the investments of the only trillionaire on the planet: Saudi Arabia's MOHAMED BIN SALMAN.

here's is a short thread articles that should bring clarity to Biden's handling of #StudentSpring

such a horrible tragedy that Trump was perfectly photographed with some blood smeared on his ear and cheek with a fist high up in the air yelling, FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

it's a horrendous tragedy.

"there is no place for political violence in America", i have seen so many already say.

there is no place for political violence. none at all. unless you're kids protesting genocide during the #StudentSpring

but a horrible tragedy, indeed.

NORMAN FINKELSTEIN is having the biggest "i fucking told you so" moment of his life and am sure, though well received, it is more bitter than sweet.

jacobin.com/2024/05/norman-fin

this is an important article for his focus on the cognitive #linguistics of protests:

«"I believe the “Cease-fire now” slogan is most important. On a college campus, that slogan should be twinned with the slogan of “Free speech.” If I were in your situation, I would say “Free Gaza, free speech”...»

jacobin.comNorman Finkelstein: Build a Majority for PalestineHolocaust scholar and pro-Palestine activist Norman Finkelstein expresses his support for the student protests, insisting on the importance of free speech and uniting the majority of Americans around solidarity with Gaza.

«This week, the Senate may pass a bill granting the executive branch extraordinary power to investigate and strip nonprofits of tax-exempt status based on a unilateral accusation of wrongdoing.»

Democrats have a narrow majority in the US Senate. tell me again how exactly are Democrats proving they are antifascist?

HERE'S THE THING ABOUT 1939

the moderates, the fascist appeasers, went really hard against anybody who were against their tactics. they literally demonized their grassroots & voting base; with mass incarcerations and violent repression.

not only did they lose most of the parliament; when it came to defend them and the whole country against the paramilitary police supporting the Nazis, there was nobody to heed the call.

YOU are repeating history, not the #StudentSpring kids & professors.

ARRESTING JOURNALISTS
covering protests is fascism

BRUTALIZING STUDENTS
protesting #genocide is fascism

DISMISSING #COVID19
to push public health policies that are nothing but eugenics is fascism

RATIONALIZING #POLICE TERROR
under one president because it's not terror under another president is fascism

CAPITULATING TO THE LESSER EVIL
while actively sabotaging antifascist voices in your political party is fascism

SO: if not now, when will Democrats be against fascism?
