What you are trying to say is 'fuck you for not voting for MY interests

My interests in this scenario is not having mass deportation, and keeping my gay friends from having their marriages dissolved thus kicking them off their partners healthcare

I dont support war, genocide, and fascism.

Through your inaction — you do, and have.

All you’ve done is virtual signal, while allowing those you claim to care about to be in a worse position than before.

If you can explain to me how giving the federal government over to the GOP will help any Palestinian in Gaza or the West Bank, I will go away forever. If you can’t though, then that proves you don’t give a shit about the reality of genocide, only that other people perceive you as being staunchly anti-genocide.

You were too lazy to leave the house on a Tuesday evening and are just dressing that up in a way that doesn’t make you a shamefully stupid idiot

He’s going to adjurn both houses to make his recess appointments and they’ll let him do it.

There’s pretty likely to be compromising information on Gaetz, so that could qualify.

Gabbard is a hindu facist, she’s part of that international right-wing reactionary coalition that formed after the arab spring freaked all the authoritarian leaders from Modi to Putin.

Those people aren’t on Lemmy so I can’t chastise them here. Believe me, I am writing incredible vitriol to Anita Dunn too

The democratic party shares most of the blame, but those that withheld their vote exhibited extremely poor strategy which have made their positions and the position of everyone they claim to care about much much worse.

They surrendered what little influence they had. Instead of trying to grow their power like evangelicals in the 70s, they chose to give up and hope that the results are so horrific it creates a left-wing backlash that can sweep in and fix everything.

Hope is not a strategy, and the most likely outcome is what little progress the American left has made over the last 30 years will be completely undone and we will spend the rest of our lives trying to get back to where we were in 2014.

They’re stupid, well-meaning, idiots.

Imagine if evangelicals sat home in the late 70s and 80s because the GOP wasn’t regressive enough for them yet.

You’ve literally ceded all your political power and are too stupid to see it.

Being a complete phoney didn’t help. She had all the charisma of a late night preacher. That doesn’t play well with most people.

You’re quite literally bitching in the original comment but okay

You will be surprised to learn how little money the most famous actors in Hollywood actually have, that’s why they’re all trying to sell vagina candles and tequila.

How did their solution of not voting help the Palestinians?

If it didn’t, and they didn’t expect it to… Then their reason for not voting had nothing to do with their empathy for the Palestinians.

I hate using this word, because it has been co-opted by shitlords, but what they did was virtue signal at the expense of every trans, disabled, immigrant, leftist, gay person, and yes even Palestinian.

That would require ongoing funding outside of election years. These are paid for by Mercers and Kochs or the Kremlin on the right, and i don’t think Gates or Cuban is too eager to fund left-wing propaganda.

What ever you need to tell yourself to get through what’s to come. You carry your share of the responsibility, even if you don’t want to acknowledge it.

So you believe god is real? Billions of people can’t be wrong, right?

This is why it’s so important to the dems to run charismatic celebrity figureheads who will let the VP and secretaries run the government.

People like you can then focus on how much the President reminds you of your father and how much you wish you could have a beer with him, and not be worried about boring stuff like not having mass deportations.

Those people could only be motivated to vote when it was as easy as possible and they had nothing better to do. They voted for the party that would handle COVID better and let them get back to their lives of not worrying about politics.

It’s so easy to just blame the Democrats for everything, requires no self reflection on your part.

Lol, you don’t think their plan to force 50% of the population back into domestic slavery won’t raise wages for the remaining 50%?

Something that piece of shit David Frum said on his Twitter once regarding the rightwing/leftwing media system was ‘the left is awash with talent but has no funding while thr right is awash with funding but has no talent’.

Biden and the Dems saved the teamsters’ pensions against the GOP’s best efforts and it didn’t even earn them an endorsement from the teamsters’ union.

This was highly publicized, especially if you yourself were in the union

Internal polling of Teamsters members showed:

• In an electronic poll conducted after the Republican National Convention, 59.6% of rank-and-file Teamsters favored endorsing Trump, while 34% supported Harris.

• A more recent poll indicated a similar trend, with Teamsters backing Trump 58% to 31%

Having the backs of labor and the working class amounted for jack shit in actual results for dems.

You know why? Because these teamsters spend two hours a day sitting in a car listening to right-wing radio jockeys telling them how Democrats are only interested in policing their language and getting them in trouble for flirting with women.
