I 10000% blame the Jill Stein voters and non voters

[-] krashmo@lemmy.world 40 points 3 weeks ago

But not the 73 million people that wanted this explicitly?

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 3 weeks ago

Of course those too. Thought thats obvious

[-] WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 3 weeks ago

Most of them at least (misguidedly) think they are doing the best thing for themselves/the country. Non-voters just couldn’t be bothered to take any responsibility at all.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

A lot of them thought it won't be that bad, or it's just a bluff.

[-] Freefall@lemmy.world -2 points 2 weeks ago

Wow, what an incredibly stupid point to make.

We didn't win the race because we only put two wheels on the car. yEAh BuT whAT iF ThE fiNish linE WasNT So FAr FRoM THe StaRt...NoT thE RaCE TeaMs FAUlt.

Really? You wouldn't blame the millions of people that explicitly voted for a convicted, fascist criminal?

If Americans had any sense the race would've been between Stein and Harris, not between Harris and someone who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a presidency.

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

Its obv. Trump voters are to blame. Just as much the non voters and Stein voters.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 22 points 3 weeks ago

Trump got more votes than every other party combined. I blame the Trump voters.

[-] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

Be sure to add in the protest non voters. Because all 100,000,000 of them cost us the election in 2016 as well.

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 weeks ago

Thats obvious. But I blame the non voters and third party voters just as much. They are no an iota better than any MAGA voter.

[-] Freefall@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Well, mathematically, non-voters ARE trump voters in that election.

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah and they should be treated the same way.

[-] Scolding7300@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Would those votes have mattered? Last I checked on Nov 5 only 70k votes went to 3rd party and the gap between Harris and Trump was much greater

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

The 20 million people who voted Biden but not Harris would have mattered. Non voters are the same kind of trash as MAGA

[-] Freefall@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

3rd party defenders coming out of the woodwork. Sorry you are all to blame. Let's make it easy for these fools and just say "everyone who didn't vote blue" instead of "3rd party and nonvoters". Put all the garbage in the same garbage bag.

[-] lemmingthelemmers@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

Basic math tells us that you haven't the capacity to actually comprehend the situation.

Sit this one out Blue Maga Guy.

[-] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

And you are correct for doing so.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
