The Democratic Party is already dead. They’re the 1850s Whigs but just don’t know it yet

A The Whigs of Tinder account would expose some really interesting content.

"We went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists."
This 33-year-old nurse told the FBI she knew she was “going to set him free” after border patrol agents brought in a man whose face was bloodied and seriously injured. She treated him and helped him escape, and she faces charges now.

He got away, and they never relocated him.
A Michigan nurse is accused of helping an injured immigration detainee escape from a hospital while in federal custody.

In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.”
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

There's a meme going around that other place that asks for a perfect 90s album that isn't by Nirvana or Alice in Chains.
I submit to you:
Matthew Sweet's Girlfriend
Tricky's Maxinquaye
The Afghan Whigs' Gentlemen
The Afghan Whigs' 1965
Tori Amos' Little Earthquakes
REMAutomatic for the People...

If you can’t successfully message against this you don’t deserve another cent in fundraising and should go the way of the Whigs.

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.

::Antebellum Whigs energy increases::
If we’re going to get America out of this, might have to mass primary national Dems for people who give a shit, think fascism is Actually Bad, get the political and informational environment, and stand up for their voters’ values instead of normalizing, same washing, and kissing up to the opposite.
Can confirm. I generally think of myself as an institutionalist, but watching most Democratic leaders treat encroaching fascism like a stupid parlor game is beyond infuriating.

The Republican Party is deeply immoral. It has gone to the dark side. Our country will not be safe until the GOP goes the way of the Whigs.
RNC Chair Joe Gruters defends a Paxton ad that uses AI to smear a deepfake version of James Talarico: "Listen, this is the way of the future. It's gonna happen."

If the Democrats don't move toward AOC, they'll become the Whigs of the 21st century.
There are legitimate critiques of AOC on this or that issue from the left.

But really, if there were 100 more representatives like her in Congress, we’d be living in a very different country.

She represents what the Democratic Party must become.
AOC 🔥🔥🔥

Can’t vote for Whigs any more because of Polk.
Can’t plug in my guitar anymore because of folk.
Can't put baseball cards in my bicycle tires any more, because of spoke.

"We went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, compromise Union Whigs & waked up stark mad Abolitionists."

Whigs in 1850
Most generously considered, what is happening with your Ezra Kleins and even your David Frenches of the world is to attempt to broker a compromise between racists and anti-racists, bigots and anti-bigots that might leave things stable for those who prioritize stability over racism or anti-racism.

None whatsoever, its time for this party to go the way of the Whigs.
