This thread is fucking ridiculous. I get people are angry about the camps and feel like they're losing, they are. I get that people are mad that Pelosi threw their darlings under the bus, she did. What's insane are the fucking mental gymnastics on display here.
The only take in this thread worth a shit is by the very few who want nothing passed and wanted to rely on accelerationism to try and change public opinion and force the camps closed. It's a dangerous gambit that'd probably cost a lot of lives and further scar a lot of people already detained but at least it's logically fucking consistent. But anyone who would have been ok with the bill that AOC wanted passed but is jumping down everyone's throats for accepting the bill Pelosi ultimately passed, that's fucking silly. Because everything happening now would have happened under AOC and the rest of the squads' preferred bill. What would your reactions in this thread be in the alternate reality their bill passed and the Senate was the one who caved? "God damnit AOC, you never should have trusted these fuckers?" Fucking Progressives, more like regressives am I right, really just a bunch of centrist scum?" What would you guys be fucking doing right now? Honestly? It's a cult of personality not unlike Trump's where your entire perception of events are colored just by the nature of which team won, since their bill failed all of this is because their bill failed in your eyes when in reality this was all happening regardless and every one of the takes in here about moderate scum funding camps and shit would still 100% apply even in the situation that the Justice Democrats' bill was the one to pass.
