Imagine reading that and thinking they are bad ideas.
Looks like they know their base is so stupid they can make them hate good things just by saying it’s left. They used to hide it better.
Also there’s the possibility it’s a plant and this is reverse psychology. I dont know this person and i trust no one now. They’ve done that enough times i wouldn’t be surprised.
Good policies, but see how Fox adds “far-left”, “democrat” and “socialist”, just to make them look bad to their oil & gas party viewers.
Oh shit. I’m in Wisconsin and didn’t know who was running to replace Evers. I knew he was retiring. Thanks for this, now I know I’m voting for her.
Politician called “far-left”.
Expectation: Installation of an egomaniac dictator, which will lead to cult of personality, crackdown on speech and expression based on said dictator’s feelings, and installing loyalist to key positions.
Reality: Bare minimum policies.
I’d love it if she won. I can’t think of a faster way to ensure that MAGA shitstain Tom Tiffany is the next governor of Wisconsin than for her to win the nomination, though. WI isn’t California or New York, even if it is all bullshit there is just too much red meat for the MAGAt puppetmasters to seize upon to vilify her and whip the dullards up into a blood frenzy, even if it is in their own’s heads.
They did this exact thing to AOC’s Green New Deal when she introduced it, and I couldn’t comprehend how people could read it as a bad thing (at least those who weren’t top 1%ers wanting to evade taxes).
Who looks at that and doesn’t want that? The people who own FOX ok gotcha.
You know, this guy ^
Sums it up pretty well
Lol she reposted it herself on socials with no changes
“Endorsed by Fox News!”
Thanks for the advertisment, FOX News!
“BUT how would be pay for all of that ???” Which, not surprisingly, doesn’t ever get asked when the DOD’s budget gets increased annually.
Yeah, that used to work, until they learned to say “We’ll just take it from the billionaires,” and everyone said “Okay, that’s perfectly acceptable.”
Now all they can do is scream “SOCIALISM!” and people are starting to think THAT sounds pretty good, too.
They’re losing their rhetorical weapons quickly, and that arsenal was pretty low to begin with.
Or some dumb cage that gets built behind the white house, which itself is a mess
Radical left now just means “anybody”
When you are so far right, everyone is far left.
That said, US politics is so bad that this platform is legitimately further left than like 95% of electeds. If this candidate is a Democrat it’s likely that her own party will favor a candidate to her right in primary and if she beats them, possibly still not throw their weight behind her in the general.
Remember that the leader of the Democratic party is basically a domestic spokesperson for Israel and refuses to acknowledge support the most popular politician in his own party.
I’m not sure it’s even possible to frame this list in a bad light? those are all unambiguously excellent things
$20 an hour minimum wage is garbage, it should be much higher.
In Wisconsin it isn’t. Sure you’re not going to buy a house in Madison with it, but you’ll be fine in most of the state.
It still can be sold as a bad thing to those who think like iT’s BetTEr tO hAvE a BaD jOB thAN NO jOb.
It’s an excellent step up from 7.50 though.
25 should be bare minimum these days. Most people should be making at least 30+.
Conservative voters have been trained to dislike things that are good for them. That’s why many Republican controlled areas of this country are almost indistinguishable from 3rd world countries.
The really sinister part is seeing that even some “liberal” Americans have the seeds of conservatism planted in their viewpoints. These are the centrists that tend to say one thing but act out a different way. The brainwashing is deep.
The Conservative Propaganda Machine has been able to control the political messaging in this country for decades, and some of their messages have become standard belief, like the concept that everything the government does is ALWAYS incompetent and wasteful, and that simply isn’t true. MOST of what the government does is very effective.
The government is an enormous bureaucracy, and if you root around enough, you’ll find issues, but overall, it does a pretty amazing job, when responsible people are managing it.
We need to challenge these standard beliefs that have become dogma, like Dem are bad for the economy (when ALL studies prove that it’s MAGA), Socialism is terrible (when many of the best things in America are Socialist, and it still offers better outcomes than whatever we are doing now), etc., and start moving in the direction that we have been so carefully directed away from.
We can’t raise the minimum wage! Think of the poor shareholders at Walmart paying my salary! They can’t afford $2 more an hour AND a summer home in the Hamptons. Fuckin libtard
