Republicans are worse than democrats in general, but on this issue they really are the same.

It’s frustrating how shitty Republicans can be and yet Democrats still insist on adopting all their positions and getting endorsed by them.

If you look at the x axis it may not be new to the fossils running our government, but it’s new to anyone under 40, Harris massively underperforming with young people is pretty directly that.

I voted PSL actually, and I don’t even use tiktok.

That you’re running into the same opinions on there too indicates that this is a broader sentiment and that if younger people are complaining about blue maga it could be a behavior/performance issue from Democrats rather than regarding propagandists on a niche forum poisoning everyones minds.

I doubt that my many international readers had any impact on the election.

Expressing an unorthodox political opinion online has a comparable impact to kicking millions of people off their Medicaid. noted ✅

My state went for Harris even with my protest vote. 🤷

I don’t have a citation for you of Kamala saying exactly that- but yeah that was more a Biden line.

Your party is in power, it gets held responsible.

I’m not here to make you feel better about their mistakes

One of the frustrations was that they would be talking about how the economy was doing great… if you were a homeowner. The inflation was also in things like rent which they have no intent on really addressing, but disproportionately gets omitted from broader stats regarding inflation despite people getting $500+ rent increases shortly after the end of the COVID eviction protections.

Blank check? they already had one and have been bypassing Congress to fund them already under Biden

The origins of “the far left” (as I understood it) was basically promoting heavy government involvement. For example, breaking up monopolies, many government subsidied programs for it’s people, which in turn needs higher taxes for it people (so the rich get taxed more, the poor get taxed less).

People on the far left were actually interested in expropriation of private property and a more egalitarian distribution of those resources and decisionmaking. They also wanted actual democracy (as in power to the people) rather than Democracy™ where it’s only for a handful of the population who aren’t getting actively disenfranchised.

If you nationalize industries you get to use the profits directly, rather than messing around with taxes after the fact.

Further, over 25 million people were disenrolled from Medicaid during unwinding, even though overall enrollment only declined by about 13 million people.

As of 6:50 a.m. ET on Nov. 7, Trump had 72,641,564 popular votes and Harris had 67,957,895. Trump currently leads Harris by approximately 4.6 million votes.

3 times as many people got kicked off medicaid under Biden as Harris lost by. Maybe try reading what I’m saying next time.

Who am I kidding, you’ll never learn anything from this.

I’m still here, the Democrats lost so bad that all the protest votes combined couldn’t close the difference.

Democrats let more people get kicked off Medicaid by “ending COVID” than they lost by too.

If you want to be considered the “lesser evil” option maybe get less innocent people killed in your term.

Democrats deserve contempt for supporting a genocide trying to win at electoralism and still losing.

being taken seriously is like the last thing I want. The FBI agent assigned to me might have to actually do something.

Ironically “But Trump” is what got you Trump.

It’s actually got us Trump twice now.

trolly

I hate to break it to you, but Democrats are also genocidal and through a combination of their policies and incompetence (charitable reading) created the situation which led to trump getting elected. Twice.

Here’s what actually works for getting a trolley to stop running over people:

Agreed, though that’s also why I don’t think anyone is expecting the EU to be particularly helpful either

The point is that the US was never really helping the people of gaza, just enabling the people murdering them.

support for the cause has been trending among young women voters who are vowing to swear off men.

hell yeah

Remember when Joe Biden had them make an “aid pier” that was only really used to launch a massacre from before it collapsed?

Americans, the bombs getting used to vaporize the children of Gaza are paid for with your taxes.

America is not full of progressives.

No it is not and I’ll toss another example on there -

Gay marriage was only legalized nation wide by a bunch of unelected judges, and the second most-recent Democratic president “evolved” on the issue less than a decade ago.

US postures as the world’s defender of LGBT rights when it’s “bringing democracy” places, but it’s not great at doing that internally.
