    Oh so there were primaries and you fuckin lied above. Tracks. Arms getting tired lugging those goal posts around? The democratic party comprised of registered democrats picked the Harris ticket, and yes, since the whole fuckin succession works the way it does it was with the understanding that Harris would likely have to step in because Biden was fuckin old. Why are you so fuckin obsessed with Biden and Harris? Why are you blaming democrats for the republican destruction of this country? Are you an accelerationist? Because if you’re not, and you’re also not fucking dumb as fuck, then you well know that getting democrats in office and primarying democrats with progressives is literally the only way we come back from this. It’s already almost too late and then it’s a republicunt dictatorship until total collapse. So unless you want a fuck ton of people to die including yourself get people to vote for progressive democrats in literally every election.

      I don’t blame dems for what the GOP is doing, I blame the dems for not winning elections. Why is it easier for you to accuse me of being an accelerationist than to accept that I don’t want to see dems keep losing? The opposite of anger is understanding and all I am getting from you is anger.

          It’s also good parenting advice, which might come in handy in your quest to infantilize voters.

            I’m not infantilizing them, I’m blaming them for looking at Trump and Harris and not seeing enough of a difference to ensure Harris won, because that’s what happened and it’s all our fault.

              Oh no, some overposting lemmy guy’s “blame”. Man do I feel “slammed”. I’m going to change my behavior to whatever it is you demand right now. No one can argue with your electoral success or how you’ve gotten the dems to care about the issues the voters care about. Your work speaks for itself. *Respect.

              and it’s all our fault.

              I actually agree with you on that one. Though I am finding i believe that less as time goes on.

                Nah if voting was compulsory and people were even minimally educated on the positions of the people they’re voting for we’d have drastic positive change.

        Blame your rhetoric for convincing idiots to not vote democrat in every election. The voters and non voters own this. We the fuckin people, but go ahead and absolve yourself from responsibility while doing republicans work for them.

          You actually think i have that much sway with voters? Then maybe you should be asking me how to achieve such influence for yourself so we can stop losing. But I don’t have such power, I am simply observing how the majority of Americans feel about things and that reality makes you upset so you blame the messenger.

                  You’ll make a great servant in the upcoming fascist system. Don’t ever think for yourself or champion any issues specifically, align with whatever the rich donors of your party tell you to align with. Heres a gun soldier! Go shoot those kids!

                    Behold an example of American reading comprehension. Build better strawmen. Jesus Christ lemmy makes reddit seem halfway intelligent.

                  No no, you convinced me that the only reason Harris lost is because people are dumb. I hope that motivates you to continue to tell others how dumb they are.
