MODERATORS
Well then you're about to get what you want. You'll teach her a lesson. Congratulations. Hope it's fucking worth it.
Lmao they’re not going to learn anything. Their takeaway will be “we didn’t try hard enough to capture moderate Republicans” and shift further to the right.
Instead of getting mad at people for not voting for a candidate that doesn’t align with their interests, maybe you should be mad at the Democratic party for running a dogshit campaign. Even from a pragmatic point of view, its a lot easier to put pressure on the party than to yell at hundreds of thousands of people with varying reasons for not wanting to vote for her.
I'm deeply pissed off at democrats for a lot of shit... I'm still not willing to murder women or Palestinians to express it.
If Trump is elected, women will die easily preventable deaths and he has promised to accelerate the genocide.
I'm not even advocating against voting for Harris, just don't blame the people that didn't if she loses.
No, I'll fully blame 3rd party voters. Fuck em just as hard as actual Republicans.
We all want better candidates. Literally every single democratic voter. But we understand what's going on.
I won't, although they should feel deep shame for contributing to a genocide.
I think Harris was a weak pick and our lack of a primary was a serious mistake. I blame the DNC for hand picking the next candidate instead of allowing the democratic process to proceed.
But, at this point, Harris is our candidate... so I hope to fuck she wins.
Do more. Get her and others in office, and then let them have it with your demands that we not only stop helping the war, but be active in forcing it to stop. Do that regardless of who is in office, but even in the "both sides" mentality which is more likely to sway to a huge public outcry, left or right?
This didn't begin with this election or Harris' campaign, although it sure feels like coverage ramped up around that time. Coincidence?
A side note on the primary - I do agree that Biden shouldn't have started a second run and we should have had a proper primary. We didn't, and the change to Harris was so late in the game doing a primary (if that's even legally possible) would have done more damage and missed the effect it had on Trump. We can't fix the past, only try and navigate the present, otherwise we'd probably be best to go back to 1947 and prevent this whole mistake of using superstition and western colonialism dictate what borders are where.
Oh good. At least you're aware you're killing Palestinians, taking away women's bodily autonomy, persecuting immigrants, and pushing the Democrat party further right. I guess I appreciate your honesty.
Crazy how you can look at the Democratic administration taking zero action on any of those things and somehow make it my fault, but go off king.
They're trying to get people who will vote to vote for her. The aren't going to count on people who are saying they won't show up.
They've been doing it since Clinton won as a third-way Democrat in the 90s.
It's the only fucking way, demographically, that Democrats can consistently win. I consider myself a progressive, but I'm also aware that people need to participate more than once every four years if they want their party to change. But until that happens, they have zero reason to believe that it makes more sense to go left than center to get more votes (enough to win).
Blame yourselves
Good luck at the gulag.
