Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Sunday, October 12, 2025

When one thinks of the Democratic Party in 2025, most don't think of compassion or relatability. Instead, anger is the first word that usually comes to mind. Here are ten examples of anger on display during Trump's second term:

I'm angry and I'm scared. I think that I have the right to be given objective circumstances. The concern starts with finances in the mindless Trump economy and continues with horror over a spreading military occupation.

Whereas you don't seem to have a nervous system; neither do you project an real awareness of the worls around you.

The point of this thread isn't about how people who vote Dem feel. It's about how Dem pols conduct themselves and communicate on a big platform. It's very off-putting and it's mostly just repugnant anger with little alternative messaging. The minority party should be trying to persuade voters, not alienate them.

Mission - Deliverance (1990)

Back in the day, the group was known as Mission UK on college radio. My guess is that there may have been a name conflict with a US group. Similar to Charlatans UK.

In any case...

Lyrics excerpt ...

genius.com

...
[Verse 1]
Believe in magic believe in lore legend and myth
And the hand that guides in the cunning of hope in the weaving of dreams
And the lady of the lake takes my hand and leads me
To the holy isle and the fairy rings and the circles of stone
Forever and again

[Chorus]
Give me, give me, give me, deliverance
Brother, sister, give me, give me
Deliverance, deliver me

[Verse 2]
Surrender to the wisdom of age and the spirits of time
Remember our souls entwined for eternity
And the healing hand of the fairy queen will come to all who have faith in her
And the apple tree will bear it's fruit in the gardens of Avalon
Forever and again
...



Yeah, imo, they don't write lyrics like that anymore ...

Husband smacks wife around. Wife finally has enough and slaps him back. Husband acts like slap was unwarranted and gets more aggressive and violent, starts limiting access to bank accounts, phone, internet/computer in response to her "violence."

People like KWRX- why didn't she think through slapping him and why is she surprised that he's smacking her around...?

Great analogy with the domestic abuse...

The wife lashing back out, probably warranted, and a feel good reaction. But did it improve her situation? No. The husband will just do worse, or he'll have her charged and she'll have been the aggressor that time. She probably should have left, or, or, etc...

So yes, the feel good action and the improve the situation aren't going to be the same.

Neither side of the Aisle is doing anything to improve the situation, and just keep upping the intensity of the divide between the two.

In the current time the Left is on it's heals, and you all cheer for their non helpful actions, because what aboutism.

and the cycle continues

The analogy to what Trump is doing to the Gov and the People might better be his conviction for finger-raping a woman. Or defrauding banks.

Or attempting to rig an election with fake ballots from states. Or sending his goons to halt the peaceful transfer of power in this country.

Don't 'cha think?

So many good analogies.

Biden spent 4 years respecting the magats who disagreed with him. He invested heavily in their districts

It got him exactly zero support.

Magat scum are stubborn jackasses.

The vast majority of magat scum will only learn in 1 way. When the consequences of their actions break through their ignorance.

That break through will be difficult because they live in a world of propaganda spewed by state run media, utter cowardly representatives and a lying president.

Again

"... Left is in a prime position to shine a light on the Right and win people back..."

I ask, but you will not give an honest answer

How does one "win" back people who voted for a rapist over a normal human being?

What light can the Left shine on people like that that will result in meaningful change in them?

Finding out what they want and accommodating them?

Biden did that, it did not work.

The left would be better served by engaging in some more even keeled discussion. I know it seems contrary, but all of my leftists friends personal posts, conversations, etc, are heated. Which I get the anger, but when you engage a moderate who has slightly differing views some of which may lean right it immediately turns into a litmus test and the moderate is vilified. If the left courted moderates there could be a unifying voice pressure our leaders. Instead we have the far right with too much control, the far left with too much anger, and the middle being shouted down if any sort of nuanced discussion is attempted.

For reference I'm referring to a long time friend I have that I have just stopped engaging with. Every one of their posts starts with at least two or three all caps MAGANAZI or NAZIFACIST riddled sentences that at this point are almost bereft of a point. If I do anything less than meet that with equal vitriol 100% in line with her point of view I am then called one too. Her posts are an attempt to persuade others to join pushing back against Trump. She is probably right about Trump being in the wrong, but it just makes me scroll past. If you think this is a unique situation, you're not listening to the middle.

That's what KWR is talking about.

People like that speaking out like that on facebook or wherever is precisely what Trump wants. Attack the entire right with those labels (including everyone near the middle or even left leaning moderates) so that it marginalizes every decent thing the democratic party tries to pursue.....so that no democrat is trusted no matter the issue.

That's the result of dumfuqs like that woman screaming "MAGANAZI" to anybody who doesn't completely agree with her.

- but not label everyone every ism,

Trumpers are in general in denial of the Facts; this current Admin is the very definition of Fascism:

"Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology defined by a dictatorial leader, state control over society and the economy, and the forcible suppression of opposition. The ideology emphasizes aggressive nationalism and often employs racism and scapegoating to mobilize support."

more

www.google.com

Not to mention Nazism:

Nazism is the far-right, totalitarian ideology and political practices of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party in Germany, formally known as National Socialism. It was based on extreme nationalism, racial supremacy, and the persecution of minority groups. This ideology is characterized by antisemitism, anti-communism, the belief in a superior "master race," and the authoritarian consolidation of power.

www.google.com

Trumpism has most of the elements of both, and denying that is denying reality; it's why JD Vance called Donald Jessica Trump, "America's Hitler".

Now, ya'll can whine about the Facts all you want, but they are not going anywhere.

If you deny reality even once, to placate a bully or autocrat it's over.

You might as well just accept the status of a Subject.

Trump deserves no Deference. At All.

The office of the President deserves some Deference.

But Trump's way of demanding a belly crawl worthy of the Natives Prostrating themselves before Kurtz in "Heart of Darkness" is unacceptable, offensive even.
