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.
That is meaningless nonsense pseudo intellectual bullshit.
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.
Well if progressives and leftists actually fuckin voted... So many assholes here just abdicating all responsibility for their own lack of civic engagement like none of you have any agency. Fuckin pathetic.
I did vote. Just not for who the Dems ordered me to. I didnt vote for any republicans though I can tell you that. Never have in my life.
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.
