Imagine loving capital and zionism more than winning an election.
At least 2 investigative journalists think that the election was stolen. America didn’t choose him.
Your username needs some explaining
Anger is a form of attention and apathy is the lack of attention. If you imagine the voters who didnt turn out to be more mad than apathetic, you’re not gonna reach them next time either.
That’ll send the Dems a message!
What message?
“The far-right gets more votes than a moderate, and there is no sizable left-wing voter bloc in this country”?
Huh.
Maybe that was the wrong message to send.
When Obama won on a message of hope and change they decided to use that popularity as currency in exchange for corporate/moderate policy.
I wanted Harris to win. I hate Trump, but I can be mad at the Harris campaign for being shit and giving us Trump. I can be mad at everything.
Let’s not forget Biden, who dragged his old ass around on the carpet until the 11th hour before being forcibly ousted by his backers. Same guy who “committed” to being a one term president…until his enormous ego wouldn’t allow him to let go.
Cap that off with anointing Kamala instead of any democratic process, like Primaries, and the argument could be made that Biden ushered this entire timeline into existence.
Maybe disappointed at the Harris campaign and mad at the fascists who voted for trump
Obama at least managed to deliver the Affordable Care Act; which despite not being Medicare Part E (Medicare for All), was a significant improvement over what existed before.
What the US needs is a proper progressive firebrand from the Dems; someone from the Bernie school - or hell, just pick from any one of the other Western democracies.
If that’s their takeaway, then we’re doomed. They did nothing but court Republicans with their “We can be tough on migrants too” shit. It always blows up in their faces. Biden ran a moderately progressive campaign and blew Trump out of the water. Maybe… just maybe the supposed left party should stop courting the right. Most Americans agree with progressive policies (once you couch them to not sound too “socialist”)
If that’s their takeaway, then we’re doomed
Hate to break it to you, but we’re doomed. We voted in a fascist.
The best we can hope for is that Trump is less vicious than his rhetoric or that his incompetence prevents him from doing the many awful things he promised on the campaign trail.
If that’s their takeaway, then we’re doomed.
Yes, which is why we should’ve sent a different message.
The only other message that could be sent is “Yes, good, keep doing that.”
“And we’re cool with genocide as long as it’s not BlUe MAgA supported genocide! That’s just a bridge too far!”
Nothing to do with her politics. Everything to do with the BS the Dems pulled to get her on the ballot. Dems told me to hold my nose and vote for democracy. . .for a third time and it just got old.
You believe they were all in good faith? I’m convinced some, or even most of the people sending that message got exactly what they wanted.
Some, sure. Most of the time, I assume that when people say stupid shit, it’s because they believe something stupid. Usually because their stupid beliefs are parroted in a community of people which are driven by bad actors - like how most conservatives are feeding from the bad actors in Fox News and acting as a self-reinforcing circlejerk of bad opinions.
That’s certainly part of it. There are also those on the far left that would rather see acceleration towards collapse over another moderate in office. They may not have the numbers, but that doesn’t stop the message from affecting undecided voters.
