    I hate when they smugly act like if Trump is elected then a switch magically flips and leftists will start to be oppressed.

    NEWS FLASH ASSHOLES. IT’S BEEN HAPPENING THE WHOLE TIME AND BIDEN HAS ESCALATED IT. THE DEMS HAVE SPENT A BUNCH OF MONEY TO KICK LEFTIST CANDIDATES OFF OF STATE BALLOTS. THEY DON’T HIDE IT. YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.

      The left in America has been literally attacked for decades. They’ve murdered and imprisoned so many leftists, we have to rebuild our institutional knowledge from scratch every new generation. Meanwhile, the same libs and reactionaries who killed Fred Hampton or Sacco and Vanzetti are still in office (okay maybe not for the latter, but it sure feels like it).
