This dude is the guy everyone pretended Bernie was. I still love Bernie and am glad for his politics but Walz has a kind of dad charisma you can’t replicate
He mobilized the national guard against protesters. I still like him, but Bernie is better. Bernie is too old now though. We fucked up and don’t deserve him.
Mobilizing the national guard against protestors is a really strong way to put him only sending the guard after buildings had burned down, looting had occurred, and the Mayor requested it.
Here’s a quote from Walz at the time.
As Governor, I will always defend the right to protest. It is how we express pain, process tragedy, and create change. That is why I’m answering our local leaders’ request for Minnesota National Guard to protect the peaceful demonstrators, neighbors, and small businesses in Minnesota.
this is the perfect response to protests where a handful are violent and destructive. not spraying crowds with pepper spray so Trump can hold a bible upside-down for a photo.
Right wingers always pretend like left wingers want violence to occur at protests. Lock up the people who commit crimes, leave everyone else alone
There is absolutely a small faction of leftists who do fetishize political violence. You see them all over Lemmy.
violence against who?
edit: there’s a big difference between advocating for violence on people surrounded by security personel who have personally ordered deaths of thousands of people (eg Netanyahu, Putin) vs some random person who happens to be a minority.
omfg PLEASE let harris walz memes take off the way obama biden memes did
Return to 2012: Obama Memes Edition.
Seriously, I really want to see that happen.
Obama gets a lot of shit for not being perfect, but his was a golden age of memes.
Thanks Obama.
