I never thought I’d ever say it. But I am glad that democrats are starting on outright insulting and mocking their opponents. They need to take it a step beyond. They need to not simply call out the weirdos that they are, but just the sheer degenerates and freaks that they are and how they are never close to what their claimed ideal is.
This attitude of clapping back at the absolutely insane actions of the Republicans has made me feel represented for the first time in my life. It’s also making me happy that I’m excited to vote for a candidate rather than just voting against the worst option for a slightly-less-worse option. Love to see that.
Kind of torn to be honest. I find AOC’s tit for tat brattiness to be pretty unproductive. And when you get into a fight with a pig, you both get covered in mud and the pig loves it.
But - just being the adult at taking blows hasn’t worked for anyone else since these smooth brains chidlish antics because their primary attack tool. Maybe that’s why “weird” is getting some traction. It is a backhanded insult that doesn’t really demean you the same way as back and forth churlishness does.
Whatever gets under the republicans’ skin is fine and dandy.
You don’t need to sling mud in the same way, you need to really show case their faults. They have tons of them. There is no need to make anything up.
Using subdued language does nothing. Republicans have been calling all liberals and democrats and anyone they don’t like fascist for decades. The closest thing democrats ever got to was when Biden used the term semi-fascist to refer to some of them a while ago.
Calling them weird and weak is actually very good. You need to understand what hurts them and do that. Because they will never stop. Even if you endure their shit and are truly unaffected, their actions still turn people against you whether you realize it or not.
