    What’s going on is that you have FAFO’d that you should never have compromised with the GOP like we fucking told you

      If you told them not to compromise with the GOP and still voted for them anyway, then there’s not much FAFO here. Unless of course, you’re trying to say that the FO part of their FA is a result of your not voting for them in protest- which in this case, you then would have to admit your responsibility in helping to install trump in the white hose.

            First of all, you have no idea how I voted. Second of all the reason we have Trump is because Biden absolutely refused under any circumstances to do the number one job he was elected to do. He literally shirt his responsibility to defend the country and the Constitution and said outright that he’s just going to have faith in the American people to deal with it. You stuck us with an ancient daughtering fool who has never been out of Washington DC since 1974 with all of the center and left Democrat voters screaming to not force us to vote for him but you did it anyway and it went exactly as predicted. He made performative gestures to the left while making sure that there was no protections for his actions: he refused to deal with the supreme Court problem even after losing women’s rights: he refused to remove and replace his attorney general when it was blatantly obvious that he was never going to do his duty either; and he absolutely refused to acknowledge and defend against a party that had embraced full Nazi fascism until after he had already lost all ability to defend against them. So please fuck off with your arrogant high horse bullshit about people not sucking the same cock that you do.

              [Then goes on to post a wall of text illustrating their ability to perform precise mental gymnastics and not providing a single shred of evidence to support it- while simultaneously defending accusations that protest voting was part of the reason trump was elected]

        I’m dizzy with this circular logic here.

        Dems need to behave and act like an opposition party. Organize local outreach and fund down ticket candidates. Who any of us voted for no longer matters.

        Organize and resist. Moving forward is how you win. Gloating about the worst possible outcome at the end of the world doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

        If we don’t get off our asses there won’t be another chance to vote. It’s not 2000, Trump isn’t Bush. Our systems are being dismantled. If that’s not a call to unifying action I don’t know what is.

          No one is getting off of any asses. The bed was made and now we’re sleeping in it.

            Honest question, are you ashamed that you don’t feel empowered? Is that why you shit all over anybody’s efforts to organize.

            Or are you just so confident you’ll be able to pass the coming Mischling tests?

              Why would I be ashamed? I voted to stop this. I canvassed. I did the work. I’m proud of my efforts to stand in the way of a fascist dictator.

              And I’m not shitting on anything. I’m just observant. I don’t lie to myself others.

              Organizing protests won’t do shit even if you could gather enough people. I’m not happy about this. I don’t want this, but inept that this is how it is.

              We had a chance to stop this. We were warns this would happen. We were TOLD this would happen. And yet- NINETY MILLION ELIGIBLE VOTERS STAYED THE FUCK HOME.

              So no. I’m not ashamed at all. I’m just DEEPLY disappointed and angry that she lost our only chance to avoid this. And on top of that, I’m furious that there’s people that have the audacity to cast aspersions on those that knew there was a way out of this. I’m furious that these people smugly accuse those that busted their asses to stop this of not trying to help.

                  You people LOVE using the past as a battering ram to break the bullshit of the present.

                  News flash: IT DOESN’T FUCKING WORK LIKE THAT.

                  I don’t give a shit about your links to events that happened decades ago. That’s not now, those weren’t the same people, and this is NOT the same situation.

                  We had the chance to stop this and ninety million people chose to stay home. So go ahead, protest all you want if it makes you feel like you’re doing something. I suppose it’s better than doing nothing- but I hope you suffer no illusion that it’s going to do fuck-all about anything.

                  We lost that chance in November. No more finger in the leak… the damn is broken.
