    I mean she can be a bad candidate and still be the only logical choice. I don’t think letting fascism take root was a good idea. But you do you.

      Keep blaming the victims. I’m sure that’ll get them to listen to you.

      To the average, uneducated and heavily propagandized, American citizen there is very little difference between Democrats and Republicans. Each side calls the other fascist or communist or nazis so often the words have lost meaning. Each side is owned entirely by corporate interests (often the same corps) and often don’t even pay lip service to the working class.

      It’s on party leadership to communicate a message that earns votes. They failed to do that in 2024. “Don’t vote for that guy” is not an effective way to say “vote for me” unless you actually present an attractive alternative. That’s going to require actually talking to people rather than at them and listening to their concerns.
