Epstein Scar | New LEGO Video from IRAN

This stuff is happening on other parts of the internet, and I think it is highly effective to engage a younger generation, and actually attempts to take over the narrative rather than the reactionary kneejerk journalism (and reposting here on Lemmy) of the "hE SaId WhAt?" brigade.

The USA is one of the strongest propponent of AIs so I see more this as like a Thanos "I used the AI to destroy the AI" moment. Not the best, but from what I can see no one else is even trying to hit the US. Heck, they themselves have failed to kill Trump at least twice.

Lemmy is sliding to the edge of absurdity now. Everything remotely CGI or artificial is labeled slop and automatically downvoted without even looking at the content. Or how sometimes very progressive crowds can act super conservative.

It's the exact same purity mindset that got Harris voters to stay home imo.

I mean this is straight up slopaganda but it’s funny at least.

And most of the ‘very progressive crowds’ here hate both parties in America but are too lazy to do the work to create an alternative so they want to tear everything down and hope someone else will create the utopia communist purity party.

[–] SailorFuzz@lemmy.world 9 points 6 months ago (22 children)

The work to create an alternative party is contingent on changing First-Past-The-Post and the Electoral College. Both of which seem nearly impossible to accomplish.

The people aren't allowed to vote directly for it. Rather only allowed to vote for representatives who can then go on to vote for that. But they wont, because they directly and massively benefit from them staying in place.

Not saying "let's do commie utopia!", but I definitely understand the frustration and wanting to just tear shit down.....

MAGA also put their rancid cocks inside a hundred thousand toddlers, you want to follow their footsteps in that as well?

They took over the party because they all lie, cheat and steal their way into power, then follow that up by dropping all pretense of being a human being. They are the concentrated essence of what makes people think politicians are despicable animals. If all we have to look forward to is "that, except blue flavored" then maybe we really should just let it all burn.

My argument is that you are trusting the establishment to run the resistance, and they are the controlled opposition. Don't project your own lack of reason onto me here. If you don't realize by now that fact, you never will, and you are the problem, not everyone else as those ivy league suits tell you as they sell out America.

I think a line can be drawn from the Tea Party to MAGA, so, 2009-2016 to get an "outsider" candidate elected and it still took until 2024 before MAGA managed to take over the party completely.

The equivalent on the Democrat side would be the DSA. The DSA was a minor, mostly irrelevant faction until Bernie's first candidacy in 2016. It has since ballooned in membership and elected a bunch of officials across the country and it's still growing, but they're still in the Tea Party phase of development and struggling to find their outsider candidate. Bernie wasn't the one, maybe next time.

DSA has a hundred thousand members which is about 0.03% of the US population.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 1 point 6 months ago* (9 children)

So? We're not talking about taking over the US, we're talking about taking over the Democratic Party. It has been slower than the Tea Party's meteoric rise (mostly a result of not being backed by billionaires) but DSA candidates are steadily winning primaries against establishment Dems and going on to win elections as well. The Tea Party started the same way, winning primaries and winning elections. The comparison is still useful for understanding what might happen in the future. It's slower, but similar.

slow-and-steady vs move-fast-and-break-things

I expect them to win a decent chunk of their elections in the upcoming midterms and then just continue growing after that.

The movement certainly stalled while Biden was president - opposition movements don't grow when their party is in power - but now things are moving again because Democrats are out of power. Mamdani just defeated the Democratic establishment and went on to get elected, that takes a movement.

Notably, close to half of the DSA's growth since the recent lows came from the Mamdani election campaign. Expect them to pick up more positions in the midterms, and more membership as people join because of their election campaigns.

I can’t read that map because dark mode and transparent background makes the text black on black but if your point is that Biden was popular enough that socialists didn’t move away from the DNC then we might finally agree on something.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 0 points 6 months ago* (5 children)

Here's where I grabbed it from. Note that it's from January, DSA membership has grown more since then.

My point is that opposition movements in the US only grow when they're in opposition to the president. Biden didn't have to be popular to cause the DSA to shrink, all he had to do was be the president. The DSA is still a Democratic Party organization, it won't try to splinter the Democrats away from the acting president. They weren't in opposition to Biden, so they shrank.

Now they're in opposition again, so they're growing. The question is if they can grow enough in the next few years to get someone on the presidential ballot, because if they can they'll be able to do to the Democrats what MAGA did to the Republicans.

DSA's membership grew from about 50,000 in October 2024 to over 90,000 in December 2025

Wow if it continues at that rate of 40,000 per year in the year 3158 it will surpass the DNC’s 45,400,000 members.

Does that chart look linear to you?

That's not how movements work. They advance and retreat in response to conditions, you can't just project a straight line from their growth over 14 months and expect it to have any predictive power. Before Mamdani's election they were growing at a rate of roughly 2,800 members a month. One month after electing Mamdani they'd added another 8,000 members to reach that 100,000 milestone, blowing the previous rate out of the water.

Also, notably, over a million people voted for Mamdani. People don't have to be DSA members to support them.

We'll see in the midterms, won't we? If you're right, the DSA won't grow much more by the end of the year.

If I'm right, the midterms will see DSA membership sharply increase in response to DSA candidates winning elections.
