Haha, we can agree to disagree. At least we seem to be on the same general team 😜

"played a part in getting trump elected" this is so vague though. Because I can argue that you played a part on getting Trump elected by voting for Democrats for the past 50 years.

The lower class has been dying. It's either death by a thousand cuts or whatever Trump and his cronies are doing. The faster the death the faster the lower class will react.

So you can see that as the silver lining on Trump's election.

Yep. And that's why we are sliding into fascism.

Of course I am happy that they have rights! I am just saying that it should be irrelevant. It shouldn't be the platform that the candidates run on. They should just give LGBTQI+ rights, and run on a more socialist platform that will raise the poor and lower the rich. But of course DNC is run by the establishment, and they have certain agendas, so that would never happen. So what's a point of contention that the two parties can easily have? LGBT rights!

I know my quotes too.

β€œThere is nothing I dread So much, as a Division of the Republick[sic] into two great Parties, each arranged under its Leader, and concerting Measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble Apprehension is to be dreaded as the greatest political Evil, under our Constitution.” John Adams

"The two-party system teaches you that there’s a constant battle of good versus evil, when in reality, it’s just a fight for power.” Ross Perot

β€œThe smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum.” Noam Chomsky

Want me to go on?

I totally agree that the GOP is shit. Thing is that the DNC was preaching one thing and doing another, while simultaneously raising issues that were completely irrelevant to 95%+ of its base. "You can't feed your family? OK, but that trans kid who you probably never interact with at any point in your life has now rights, and I will base my whole identity around that!" Do you know how many people are transexual in the United States? Less than 1%.

You are right, if you want equality you don't vote for the GOP, but you sure as hell don't vote for the DNC either.

And this is prime "You didn't vote for my shit candidate, therefore you are literally Hitler".

It is certainly nice to not have blood on my hands.

My part in getting Trump elected is minuscule to the part the Democratic Party played to get him electable.

[–] thesven@lemm.ee 1 points 7 hours ago

Did he have only one opponent? Last time I checked there were more than two candidates.

All these are just a smokescreen. Inequality is the real issue, and the rich got richer, while the poor got poorer.

I am not saying that fascism should be allowed in. I am just saying that people who feel left out, and who feel that society has betrayed them, they will start searching for other alternatives to our current system. Who left them out?

Yep, we saw how much the Biden presidency helped.

If I had voted for Kamala I would't even have that delusion.
