I get you’re mad that Trump won, but you’re blaming the wrong people.
Oh there are lots of people to blame. It's a long list!
Right, I remember you now, you were the one talking about virtue signaling over pragmatism and trying to shift the blame rather than admit that Biden/Harris were flawed. Then dismissing the complaints everyone else had because your own selfishly mattered more.
You can continue blaming everything but the DNC, but it won't change the fact that they are complicit in genocide and no matter who was in charge, the US will continue it's legacy of genocide worldwide.
But thank goodness you have your very very high horse upon which you can crow about your principles! Congrats I guess.
and no matter who was in charge, the US will continue it's legacy of genocide worldwide.
Soo...what was not voting for the less-genocidey candidate supposed to accomplish?
well they’re not quiet now once they get called out
If you call people out, they're gonna respond, lol. (edited this part to not be accidentally included as part of the quote above)
tl;dr is we need more options than Democrats and Republicans, and voting third party should be only part of the solution to educate and mobilize the working class.
I think it is a false narrative that "voting blue no matter who" is the sole thing preventing the USA from succumbing to fascism. The reason government power see-saws between Democrats and Republicans is because it is hard for either party to maintain any legitimacy of being helpful to working class people when the only people both sides are helping are the wealthy. People get fed up with Democrats doing nothing for them and vote Republican. They then get fed up with Republicans doing nothing and vote Democrat.
Are the Democrats current policies better than Republicans in some areas? Sure. But the Democrats have also continued some of the worst Republican policies, and the ones they have better stances on are small and in my opinion offer no long term solutions to help the working class. So one proposed solution is to use our limited power of voting for another party that aligns more with working class needs. That should also only be one part of a larger scheme to educate and mobilize the working class.
You're right about third parties, and everybody needs to factor this in, or America will never get them:
And the best chance at getting that getting democrats enough power and then cracking their skulls until they do it.
I have not been quiet. The writing's on the wall. First undocumented immigrants, and the democrats are going after trans people next, and I can't stand it.
Right? .ml has been quiet...the CCP ran out of things for them to say?
fuckem. And honestly, if i get banned from a sub for calling out their bullshit then that's a sub I'm not interested in being in.
"But but genocide joe, such a catchy name! Why do I have to think further than some meme?" -💩
Throwing your vote in the trash is a vote for garbage, and garbage won by a landslide.
The garbage voters really hate to hear it.
Gotta love libs STILL blaming their overwhelming loss and support for genocide on people that they've banned.
