This wasn't the Democrats being failed, it was the whole country being failed. It wasn't about voting for the Democrats, it was about voting against Donald Trump, and there was only one way to effectively do that. Everyone who refused to do that got exactly what they voted for with Trump, whatever ends up happening, but rather than accepting that maybe this was the worst option, they're just posting memes about how everyone didn't push back against the democrats hard enough, so I doubt it'll sink in.
Do you think continuing the slide into fascism as Capitalism continues to decay is a good thing? If not, how do you plan on stopping it?
The fact of the matter is that the Democrats ran to the right of Biden in 2020 and committed fully to genocide. They lost the support they had, and they lost enough to lose the popular vote as well as electoral college. This was a massive failure, and if your plan was simply to vote Dem and hope for the best, then it's clear that your plan A failed. What's your plan B?
What's yours? Since letting Trump get elected was apparently Step 1, what's Step 2? Where are we going now? Come on, fill us in.
Or, alternately, stop putting words in other peoples' mouths and consider that what we have now is worse for everyone than the alternative would have been.
Not letting Democrats run a Nazi candidate was step 1. Liberals failed that.
Should have pushed back like I did so Genocrats would have changed course before it was too late. Instead Blue MAGA condoned it all and silenced dissent.
This is the result of capitulating every demand because "But Trump".
Ironically "But Trump" is what got you Trump.
It's actually got us Trump twice now.
This type of rhetoric is why I and many others just cannot take you folks or your views seriously.
being taken seriously is like the last thing I want. The FBI agent assigned to me might have to actually do something.
Fr when I'm filling in my spreadsheet for the people I have to watch, it's a lot easier if everyone goes in column A or column B.
Column A is titled 'Radical speech but thinks that voting will change anything – no action required'.
Column B is 'Radical shitposter – maintain eyes, no immediate action required'.
The other columns, though – damn it's a lot of paperwork.
Column O, 'Organising their community, feeding people, and providing healthcare' is the worst. Luckily for me, the agency's action means they don't stay on the list for long so the paperwork is finite. I probably shouldn't be saying all this as it's top secret. But we do know what's up in our department.
