Most disingenuous comment ever. Like the dnc didn’t actively discourage everyone from running against biden and they tried to block RFK Jr on the ballots (dudes a nut job but that’s irrelevant)

You’re completely correct. It explains their otherwise inexplicable behavior towards roe v Wade, where they ran on it as a wedge issue for decades always promising yet failing to make it law, and then shocked pickachu face when it’s overturned. And the nerve of them to continue to use it as a fundraising issue? It’s straight up offensive to my intellect.

Also it’s not a mistake in thinking, I’ve thought your comment for a while. If they cared about saving democracy they would do everything in their power to do so, like making concessions to the left, not courting dick fucking Cheney, stopping the arms sales to Israel. They don’t give a shit about winning, they care about money and power and keeping their owners happy, who own both parties.

Agree, at the same time, biden didn’t act alone, nearly the entire democrat party establishment and operatives worked to make that happen and block out any real challengers who don’t have brain worms…

That’s why I ended my post with these people get paid way too much to be this stupid, I’m referring to the swamp monsters of the democrat party.

Because the blue MAGA crowd are completely fucking delusional and can’t cope with the fact that they lost because they’re incompetent and corrupt.

I completely expect a repeat of this behavior in 2028. And a repeat of blame the left and third party voters… despite the fact that trump won with enough votes that all the third party votes combined going solely to swing states wouldn’t of changed the outcome.

They want somebody other than themselves to blame.

Thanks for playing the game, both sides are genociders and neither are acceptable choices.

How is dismissing a genocide working out for you?

Tone policing a genocide and the anger in the democrats once again selling us out to fascism rather than embrace anything remotely progressive. So liberal.

The coin toss during the caucus for starters. I’m home now, I’ll edit my comment in a bit. I worked for his campaign. It was beyond obvious that they were heavily weighing the scale against him.

I know a ton of republicans and people sympathetic to republicans. All of them thought bernie was a decent guy and they would of preferred him over Hillary.

Then after the primary he increasingly took up democrat talking points and would occasionally finger wag at them while not materially doing anything other than get angry in a speech. His embrace of democrats on gun control was a mistake, if he just maintained his view that he had most of his political career he’d court a lot of crossover voters. But now he’s far too old and the damage is done.

I voted for him multiple times, in primaries and eventually as my senator, but his milquetoast stance on Gaza made me for the first time vote against him for an independent. He’s really disappointed me over the past almost decade - I went from raising money and canvassing for him to finding him to be a has been and sell out. I still think he’s the best elected official on the national scale that we’ve got but I’m so disappointed in him.

No lmfao

Lol, biden against who? RFK Jr; the fake candidate that was a trumper the whole time? Who the democrats tried to block? Or who else, some no name nobody running a vanity campaign? There wasn’t a legitimate primary like there was in 2008 full of qualified competitive candidates. And so they lost.

Nobody following trumps footsteps has his charisma, which gives me a little comfort.

Lazy. Replace Gaza with “refuse to court base” and it would be a hell of a lot more accurate.

If there hasn’t been a worldwide turn to fascism then where the fuck is everyone? This isn’t just an American phenomenon.

And then we end up with 100 Supreme Court justices. It’s a childish solution.

I’m banned from most popular social media for being anti fascist. This is my very first post on lemmy, after IRL friends are losing their goddamn minds over this when I’ve been saying it since biden nominated himself. The day he announced he was running for reelection. Then in the last hour he drops out and Harris is nominated without a single vote… how could anyone not seen this coming?! I’ve ranted and raved about this to anyone who would listen IRL for months and I was told I was crazy.

I’m at work and on my phone so I don’t have the time to prove the 2016 shenanigans. 2020 was a coordinated effort to have all the candidates drop out just before Super Tuesday except no path to winning Warren, to split the progressive vote. It’s rigged. You’re naive.

No, at the end of the day it’s the political parties responsibility to run electable candidates. Not even having a primary makes it so they ran someone untested. And lost.

Enjoy brunch! “All my friends are queer”

Lmfao, I’m visibly queer and have been physically assaulted since I was a child in the 90s for it. The democrats have not nor ever been our friends. They manipulate us for votes. They refuse to see how THEIR ACTIONS made them lose an election they should of won in a landslide.

Keep minimizing a genocide, fascist.

As long as he drops dead of natural causes. If he gets assassinated he becomes a martyr.

You’re so woke you’re letting visibly queer people like myself live under threat of a fascist regime because you refused to hold your party accountable and “push to the left”.

They spit in our faces and minimize a fucking GENOCIDE and then expect us to vote for them? Fuck them and fuck you too.
