That's why tankies don't want to support kamala.

It's painfully clear by now that Gaza is just a trump card for them to whine about. It sucks.

Sadly some people think "revenge" is a good enough platform to qualify sometime for the top office. As long as the revenge is at least pretending to target people they already don't like or that they've been programmed to think had wronged them in some way.

High school mentality.

Lorde's "Yellow Flicker Beat" sounds like it was written for this guy.

Trump supporters be like: "Um, ackchually, Trump wants to lower taxes, maybe only for the billionaires, but they can invest that into new jobs instead of paying for the state. Even if he outlawed homosexuality or transgenderism, a next president can re-legalize it!" (The last one was a real conversation I had with my mother about the child protection law of Fidesz, which so far seems only protecting the sensibilities of her boyfriend, who often makes such homophobic rants on disgust, you immediately know the real motive wasn't the protection of children, unless you call childishly homophobic men children.)

He has concepts of revenge.

[-] SomeoneSomewhere@lemmy.nz 31 points 5 days ago

Unfortunately, Project 2025 is a whole book/organisation devoted to getting effective permanent revenge.

Sadly a lot of people unironically think that these captions should be reversed, because revenge = violence and that's Chad af and helping others is for wusses, or something

Also, hundreds of years of prosperity gospel. If you're poor or suffering, then you must have done something wrong because God is punishing you. If you're thriving, then you must be good because God is rewarding you. That's one reason why the police go after poor people more heavily. There more likely to pull over an old beater car than they are a new pickup truck. So if you want to commit crimes just drive a newer truck because they won't even look at you. Even better if you put a thin line sticker somewhere.

The results of this election should look like those rigged Central American dictatorship elections. So ashamed that so many of my fellow Americans can't get the mental health help they obviously need.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 22 points 5 days ago

Harris needs to douch more than just help US families. She's either going to rebuild the political system from the ground up or next elections after her will be the last. Dictators are knocking on the door and damn near half of the US is desperately trying to get that door open because they've been brainwashed into believing it's the right thing to do

The entire winner takes all needs to go out the window, it will destroy the country. Electoral college, out the window, it's a stupid idea to begin with. Gerrymandering, out. The supreme Court members should have a 4 years max tenure and requires VERY strict rules to avoid corruption

Concepts like fox news should be prohibited, too. Freedom of speech? Sure, but if you claim to be a news organization you either do your dned best to be honest or you get shut down. Fox news and honesty is like fore and water, it doesn't go together.

Just a few ideas to begin with

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago

I like where your head's at, aside from Harris needing to douche.

They already had that out in Court. Fox successfully argued they’re an entertainment channel not a news channel and so the judge said what they were doing was fine.

They’ll have a to-do list for sure. Are they going to do it, that’s a whole different question.

Yeah I don’t know, like Harris isn’t perfect enough yet for me. She hasn’t danced to my tune yet /“undecided” voter

[-] Luminocta@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

As a European,

Wtf.

Like how can you ask for perfection when you have so much BS going on in a country

[-] madjo@feddit.nl 1 points 3 days ago

As a fellow European I’m equally baffled.

True, the Harris-Walz ticket isn’t amazing on all fronts and atrocious in some. But even their turd sandwich is better than whatever the GQP has cooked up. And there’s a tiny chance at progressivism with the Dems, but none with the Rs.

If Trump wins, it's not as simple as that. Which means that when he eventually discovers he still doesn't have automatic fascist powers, he would immediately fall back to Project 2025. Which is why it is so foreboding - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_2025#Reactions_and_responses

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 26 points 5 days ago

I don't care how selfish that dog acted, I would vote for them 1000 times before ever considering Trump.

[-] zeppo@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Nobody’s ever been as mean to anyone as Bad Democrats are to poor trumpie :(

[-] HawlSera@lemm.ee 5 points 4 days ago

I'm a centrist! I can't tell the difference between these statements!

[-] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 5 days ago

As an enemy within, we're only mean to these people because they're fascists.
