Another day, another Lemmy post blaming leftists instead of Republicans, conservatives, racists, and their enablers.

Some of us have real lives to get on with and are willing to do the work behind the scenes, while we get on with that. My community has buried three since the since the end of October, two have recently been diagnosed with cancer and another two are in stage four. There are also considerations of paying bills. Just because we’re not wallowing in self-pity doesn’t make anyone anything other than busy. Mutual aid, direct action. Voting for the major parties isn’t the answer.

One of the candidates was against Palestinian genocide??

Jesus shut the fuck up. We lost because your moderate ass, milquetoast policies are fucking bad and tweaks around the margins without meaningful structural change aren’t going to be enough. “Vote harder” isn’t the answer you asshole, if you haven’t learned that then your head is buried in the sand.

Kamala would not have been much better than Trump. She was far right democrat with zero policy at best.

Or you could have just not supported a genocide so that people would vote for you. Stop blaming the electorate for your own failings. No one is obliged to vote for you. Especially when you have terrible policies like funding a genocide.

What’s this, a sudden influx of votes and comments that visibly oppose the votes and comments that came from the intended community, made apparent by older, lower-visibility comments such as those under folds having completely opposite positions and ratings? Why that almost sounds like a brigade! Surely not, we left those behind on Reddit, right?

They are certainly responsible for Trump doing what they will do. No amount of mental gymnastics can make that go away. You had a vote, it was what it was, you had to accept reality or live in a bubble roleplaying that your vote was something it was not.

Hey did you forget the dems are supporting a genocide? Better vote for them anways! Hey did you forget the dems are supporting a genocide? Better vote for them anways! Hey did you forget the dems are supporting a genocide? Better vote for them anways!

Like fucking clockwork.

If you thought the people who were critical of the Democrats went quite after the election, you’re saying more about the echo chamber you’ve built for yourself than anything else.

Kamala “Frack the Planet” Harris was not going to save the planet.

I’m comfortable with my decision to not vote for genocide, and I will continue to not vote for warhawks.

The only people making noise are the centrists looking to blame everyone but themselves for a sweep of all the levers of government, and a gradual loss of the judiciary that will doom the republic. It was an epic asswipping of historic proportions with you lot leading and owning the losing strategy. You dont even have the diginity to be embarrassed about it.

You geniuses lost voters across every single demographic except college educated whites, flatly ignored the economic hardship of the lower and middle class and told people they were delusional to talk about it, and on top of that they enabled and participated in obvious far right war crimes. You lost minority and youth support and trust across the board. And you have no way of earning it back beyond your same tired playbook of being slightly better than Trump, on just a few issues.

Even if Harris had done the right, legal, moral thing and indicated she’d halt the shipments, she still would have lost on her idiotic low-polling economic policy that polled the same as Joe Bidens presidency. So you all supported war crimes and soiled the dem name for basically no gain at all. You doomed the republic, soiled the global understanding of “democracy”, and showed the western world order to be a hollow shell of what it once was, where laws and justice dont really matter. All so the DNC elites could take some zionist bribes on a single election cycle, which you then lost. Heck of a job. Its hard to imagine screwing the globe any more thoroughly. Its breathtaking. You couldnt have done a more thorough job if you were maga republican fascists yourselves.

they got exactly what they wanted. They have nothing to say, they can continue to complain without reason about things that are unimportant.

(before people @ me, yes i’m right, they would care about like, children starving, or something else if the importance was what mattered)
