    Listen.

    It is the dem establishment’s job to get people out to vote. They did an abysmal job. With not just running Joe Biden first and then switching to Harris last minute, but also largely refusing to engage with media. They had a shit fucking campaign. And yes, voters have some responsibility, but you can not deny outright the fact that many people just didn’t show up to vote. Because the Dems did a shit job.

    Also, she is more of the same. Not saying Trump isn’t, but there is a deep fucking need for real change and she wasn’t it. And yes, a lot of people who are anti genocide will refuse to support anyone who is Pro genocide, like Harris. If you’re putting blame on anyone, let it be the absolutely dogshit cowardly DNC leadership

      It is not dem establishment job or fault. Stop this farse. There is tons of people today that votes for the GOP despite the voter suppression, the genocide, sex trafficking of minors and systemic destruction of the constitution of the US. There has never been a clearer case for voting anything but the GOP. The voters are evil idiots.

        This take allows this to keep happening time and time and time again, while the dems wallow in self-pity and hysterical funding drives to take more money from people for doing evil things.

          And nothing will change if we do not recognize that a perfect dem campaign will do nothing to fix years of Fox News indoctrinated fascists.

          This metaphor is not good enough. Stormy weather is an inevitable reality. Poisoned propaganda media landscape and billionaires oligarchy are not. Let’s focus on the real issue please

            The money in politics and disconnect from the voters are the real issue. You think reconditioning the American populous to be accepting of centrist war hawks is a more fitting way of tacking the “real issue”?
