    Yes liberals aren’t great and all. But this is sort of brain injury levels of dysfunction. A state level issue in a state where it’s elected officials are attacking the citizens. And people whine about why the out of power largely unelected group isn’t exercising more power? Because your mother f****** neighbors didn’t put them in power. For all the problems liberals have. This is a voter problem. I’m not sure what they’re hoping or expecting? New York or California to invade and set up a provisional government pending new elections?

      People who bitch about “the libs” are usually tankies so anything short of rising up in violence to “do somthing” is doing nothing.

        I don’t know that I would go quite that far. But if I had a dollar for every time I saw someone doing that. And then looking at their Post history to see them defending similar actions elsewhere. I would have a nice little nest egg.

        There absolutely are genuine criticisms of capitalism. Unfortunately people often disingenuously make them. Especially leninists. If there’s two groups who have no business criticizing each other it’s capitalists and leninists. They’re both just awful.
