Dems punched left instead of right… Enabled a genocide and lost the support of their base.

Wow! What a great campaign /s

I voted so I’m sure you won’t mind hearing from this leftist. The problem isn’t people who didn’t vote. The problem is how the Democrats ran their campaign. They continue to punch left to try to appeal to moderate right-wingers who will never vote for them!

Instead, they should have punched right and tried to appeal to their base on the left. Even the “scary far left people” like me.

How to do that? They should have come out against the genocide in Israel instead of sicking the police on the fucking protesters.

But sure blame random individuals and what they chose to do. That sure sounds like The first step in fixing a large structural problem. /s

Not that it matters anyway, we won’t be voting again not for real anyway.

Nah you be assuming lol

I never said Bernie… That’s why you have to insert him in () to make sense. I’m talking about general sentiment. The push overall is to get people to vote for the lesser evil not make the Dems better. I don’t like that. 🤷‍♂️

I think you should assume less stranger. Glad you stopped the friendly fire lol

Take a deep breath

I don’t know what you think my positions are but you’re wrong. I am a socialist. I’m not in a swing state so I did vote third party but I would never dream of telling someone in a swing state of doing the same I would tell them they have to vote for Kamala.

I’m not talking shit about Bernie Sanders, I know he has made attempts to be on the right side of this issue but because he does not have support from his party he’s been unable to. I’m simply lamenting the fact that our political system is so un-nuanced and so shitty that we have to pick between two genocide enablers for the highest office in the land. And that even the better party is pro-genocide. That’s all.

I wish we lived in a political system that gave us enough power as the people to just have choices we actually want. Not this lesser of two evils bullshit that we constantly do.

You good?

I’m hoping this will be the year we see Texas flip blue. That would be beautiful.

Ok… Just saying it’s sad. Do you not think it’s sad?

Edit: actually no what the fuck is this reply? What fact don’t I care about? That Bernie agrees that this is fucked. What did I say that you take issue with?

Jesus Christ. I’m so tired of you genocide minimizers

I’m clear both are for the extermination of Palestinians and will support Israel in all their wars. I think we’re kidding ourselves acting like the difference between the two on those issues is substantial at all. They both are lobbied to so much by Israel’s pac

Source for lobbying

Based on this i’d think its harder to lobby the Dems but I really think neither party is movable on their positions in respect to Israel.

Totally agree that Kamala will be better on everything else though. Just find it fucked that we’re told to suck it up on the pro genocide stances.

Can I ask what state you were voting from in 2016?

Wish the push was to tell the Democratic party not to engage with genocide not to tell us we have to suck it up to vote for genocide anyway.

Lol so dramatic

Thanks friend 🙂. What exactly did it cost me?

All the weird Jill Stein hate on here is what made me decide to vote for her lol. Just sent in my ballot last week. Don’t worry I’m not in a swing state. 🤣

Not really 🤷‍♂️

You act like there is a American presidential campaign consulting company that’ll do business with a third party on every street corner lol. How do you know there are “enough” other options lol. I think you just want this to fit your narrative

Sure but how many consulting firms for political campaigns are there?

I’m like if I pay my plumber and then it turns out he was a January 6ther. Does that really say anything about me?

What moves this beyond Third party pays consulting firm for political campaign work that had previously done work for one of the duopoly parties… Like who else is there to hire for this kind of thing?
