There was, I voted in it, Harris name was on it and everything. There you go with the fox news points again.
Why do you think people should have been satisfied with the "primaries" the DNC held when the majority of voters rejected the candidate? What do you think of Biden's promise to only run for a single term?
Because the other candidate is an unqualified fucking pedophile conman on a dementia riddled revenge tour you fucking fuck and you shouldn't be too fucking stupid to vote for your own best interests. Jesus fuck.
The observation that Americans elected a pedophile is just more evidence that the DNC kneecapped the primary. When the establishment gets every alternative to not run it's not a primary that offers a choice. But you are here saying there was a choice.
No it's evidence the average American is an ignorant belligerent bigot willing to shit their pants so others have to smell it. The system exists by the will of the people and I'd say Americans are largely represented in the white house right now.
Sounds like democracy is working as intended and you're blaming leftists for being a more effective communicator than Harris.
I'm blaming everyone that didn't vote for democrats in every election for the last thirty years because it's their fault. Hell, last fifty years.
Yet you blame me, not because I voted wrong, but because you think I can actually convince someone you weren't able to convince yourself.
I blame you for blaming shit on the DNC and not also telling people to primary with progressives and fuckin leftist tea party the dems because that's the only way we save the country without full on societal collapse. I don't want societal collapse because with climate change we won't rebuild society, we'll just mostly all die.
I do blame thr DNC for being stupid but I also tell my family and friends to vote in the primaries and to vote democrat if they can. So maybe stop lashing out at those who do vote as you say but also have more faith in the people they choose to engage with.
Oh so there were primaries and you fuckin lied above. Tracks. Arms getting tired lugging those goal posts around? The democratic party comprised of registered democrats picked the Harris ticket, and yes, since the whole fuckin succession works the way it does it was with the understanding that Harris would likely have to step in because Biden was fuckin old. Why are you so fuckin obsessed with Biden and Harris? Why are you blaming democrats for the republican destruction of this country? Are you an accelerationist? Because if you're not, and you're also not fucking dumb as fuck, then you well know that getting democrats in office and primarying democrats with progressives is literally the only way we come back from this. It's already almost too late and then it's a republicunt dictatorship until total collapse. So unless you want a fuck ton of people to die including yourself get people to vote for progressive democrats in literally every election.
I don't blame dems for what the GOP is doing, I blame the dems for not winning elections. Why is it easier for you to accuse me of being an accelerationist than to accept that I don't want to see dems keep losing? The opposite of anger is understanding and all I am getting from you is anger.
That is meaningless nonsense pseudo intellectual bullshit.
It's also good parenting advice, which might come in handy in your quest to infantilize voters.
I'm not infantilizing them, I'm blaming them for looking at Trump and Harris and not seeing enough of a difference to ensure Harris won, because that's what happened and it's all our fault.
Oh no, some overposting lemmy guy's "blame". Man do I feel "slammed". I'm going to change my behavior to whatever it is you demand right now. No one can argue with your electoral success or how you've gotten the dems to care about the issues the voters care about. Your work speaks for itself. *Respect.
Well if progressives and leftists actually fuckin voted... So many assholes here just abdicating all responsibility for their own lack of civic engagement like none of you have any agency. Fuckin pathetic.
I actually agree with you on that one. Though I am finding i believe that less as time goes on.
Nah if voting was compulsory and people were even minimally educated on the positions of the people they're voting for we'd have drastic positive change.
Blame your rhetoric for convincing idiots to not vote democrat in every election. The voters and non voters own this. We the fuckin people, but go ahead and absolve yourself from responsibility while doing republicans work for them.
You actually think i have that much sway with voters? Then maybe you should be asking me how to achieve such influence for yourself so we can stop losing. But I don't have such power, I am simply observing how the majority of Americans feel about things and that reality makes you upset so you blame the messenger.
Stop repeating republican rhetoric for starters. But you're having trouble there.
You know, you finally convinced me. Thank you for opening my eyes.
Clearly. Now go on and continue discouraging democratic voters like you have been.
You'll make a great servant in the upcoming fascist system. Don't ever think for yourself or champion any issues specifically, align with whatever the rich donors of your party tell you to align with. Heres a gun soldier! Go shoot those kids!
Behold an example of American reading comprehension. Build better strawmen. Jesus Christ lemmy makes reddit seem halfway intelligent.
No no, you convinced me that the only reason Harris lost is because people are dumb. I hope that motivates you to continue to tell others how dumb they are.
Also racist, can't forget the racist.
