1. A society owned by oligarchs

And bought politicians

[Poiuyt]

7. Yep

[berni_mccoy]

9. A society where public education has slowly been defunded

And where public education has been replaced with religious and private entities that indoctrinate their students with propaganda.

And no one wants to go to college to get saddled with a debt they can never repay.

The people that come out of this system end up not trusting government and is why we can’t get passed 60% vaccination rate in this country. It’s also why half the population votes against their best interests.

And it’s this half that is armed to the teeth and spurred on by the right to use violence against the other side.

22. Sadly, you are correct in your summaries....

My question….?

Do you see a path forward without major internal conflicts?

[crickets]

10. Right you are. nt

[Eyeball_Kid]

11. Yeah. And someone owns Joe Manchin.

My guess is that Joe has a sordid history and someone caught wind of it and let Joe know how terrible it would be if everyone knew.

[PatrickforB]

14. You said it.

Geez.

[madamesilverspurs]

2. Manchin apparently felt the need to remind us

that Trump doesn't have a lock on malignant narcissism.

3. Positioning himself for life after the next coup?

[BlueTsunami2018]

4. Why? Because those are the rules.

That’s the system. Manchin must be drunk with power, he’s the most powerful man in the world.

[betsuni]

5. 50-50 senate.

[housecat]

6. Looks like we've been played again

[KY_EnviroGuy]

8. We need to be hammering the 50 Rethugs equally with Manchin.

Methinks he gets way too much media attention whereas the other 50 get practically none for blocking this much needed legislation.

Manchin is causing our Party far, far more damage than he should be able to due to vast media exposure and we know the wingnuts must be having a field day with it. I'm tired of seeing his mug everyday on my news channels.

One man does not hold absolute power over 330 million people but fifty-one U.S. Senators do....

Let social media see 50 more similar graphics by Occupy Democrats for the 50 Rethugs.

[Brainfodder]

15. YUP, those 50 lock stepping a$$holes need a reckoning too!

Just as guilty as Joe.

Corporate greed over the people has to end or we all will die/suffer via Covid or climate change?
Looking like sooner rather than later, they have kicked the can a bit too much just to score political points for their side and it really is obvious AF!

Meanwhile, follow the $ on all the military spending, IMHO something doesn't smell right on that never ending huge expense!

[ancianita]

16. +1

We could lay out how each of their states will be harmed by their no vote.

Call the 48 Repubs up, tell their staff how we're going to publicize all over social media their senator's 'no' vote harm to their state.

[Rebl2]

12. Because he is

OWNED by the filthy rich, gun lobbyists, coal, etc.

[BigmanPigman]

13. Manchin is a greedy sadist at heart, just like the GQP.

Bah Humbug

[ancianita]

17. He is mothman in a suit.

18. maybe irs need's a look see !! TFG has been fighting for 5 yrs. hummmm!!

[bahboo]

19. Crush this fuck...

We'll find an old fashioned democratic populist hellraiser to run. Or not...

[Vdizzle]

20. Yeah he is an asshole...

But let’s not forget the other 50 assholes in the Senate that could also do the right thing. Fuck all 51 one of them. Republicans don’t believe in government so they shouldn’t be in government. Manchin is a republican also - or at least behaving like one.

[AllaN01Bear]

21. you sir have just sealed the fate of the planet .
