I've never met a single person in my life who "simps" for the Democratic party. These are not real people you are referring to.

I'm not a lib, and I blame the people who spent literal days here posting hundreds of comments convincing people to vote third party or not vote at all.

Progressives are also capable of critical thought. You make us look bad.

With respect

Their comment is deleted, but I can tell you that they didn't deserve this.

A couple of things... First, this is where you are different than them. You will actually feel it when Trump escalates the genocide in Palestine. Those other people that were pushing people to not vote, don't give a shit. That already separates you from those people.

Second, this is just based on my own personal understanding of fascism, and history, but I have a feeling that you are going to be nothing but disappointed with the Democrats moving forward. Because they will be controlled opposition. Assuming they continue to exist at all.

They will exist as props to get nothing done, and become scapegoats for every problem the Republicans cause. So get used to that feeling. We are going to have much bigger things to worry about than political parties (assuming more than one exists).

Third, to answer your original question, Harris had a very thin line to walk with regards to the topic of Israel/Palestine. I'm not sure if you are aware of the extent of the influence that AIPAC and the rest of the Israel lobby has on US politics (every side, does not matter), but it's extreme. Just look at what happened to Ilhan Omar when she dared to mention the $$ involved in their lobby. And it has just gotten worse since then.

If Harris had come out in favor of ending the genocide, AIPAC would have ratfucked her and she would have lost. I think the fact that she signaled support for Muslims a day or two Election Day confirms this. It was the only way she could do it that wouldn't give AIPAC enough time to completely blow up her campaign.

There was nothing she could have done, so she tried not to talk about it.

You did vote for genocide though. You can tell yourself whatever it is that you think you need to hear in order to preserve your sanity, but you are directly, partly, responsible for what happens next.

I hope you will be paying attention.

And if Harris would have won, and if she would have nominated Mike Huckabee, and if she would have been doing the things that Trump is about to do in the coming months, I would be saying and feeling the same way about myself.

It's called being honest with yourself. You should try it sometime.

I would say definitely more than just possible.

And nobody can say that they didn't know, as I know I probably lost a year of my life repeating the same arguments over and over again to people. pleading with them to vote for Harris.

I am not a Liberal. I'm not the biggest fan of the Democratic Party. I am also not a fucking moron, and I have a firm grasp on geopolitical history.

I would like it if people stopped generalizing that all leftists are idiots who sat out or voted third party.

Hey, can we please stop lumping all leftists together with the idiots who refused to vote, or chose to vote for Trump?

Some of us understand reason.

Yep. All of this talk about the makeup of Congress, and having an opposition party becomes moot when you hand power to fascists.

Lol Trump doesn't pay his bills. He still owes several cities from campaign rallies he held in like 2015. He's infamous for not paying his bills, and was so for decades before he became president.

There is no chance that Trump paid for this.

Oh I'm sure he'll have a nice well-done steak with ketchup every now and then.

(I died inside a little bit just typing that)

Because it's a fucking Cybertruck lol... In nearly any other situation, I would say you're right. Take the kid's choice into consideration, but then maybe ask if they have a second favorite car.
