I've been hearing that it's the most important election of my lifetime since at least 2008. The problem is that this kind of rhetoric becomes meaningless over time. The Democrats need to stop telling people it's the most important election of their lives and starting telling them why it's important. "The policies that Trump is advocating for are literally fascism, and the right-wing extremists in the Supreme Court won't stop him," carries a lot more weight than, "Hey, I know I say this a lot, but this is actually a once in a lifetime, super important election."
What do you think we've been saying.
LOL, name a single sitting Democrat that has said that. Every day I listen to left-leaning pundits avoid the word fascism or talk about Trump's batshit policies like he's just another Republican. When is Nancy Pelosi going to go on Meet the Press and say, "Donald Trump is preparing a fascist movement that will end American democracy?" It's great that Liberals and Leftists of Lemmy agree on this one, but somebody should tell the party leadership.
Forreal lol, it's like when Trump would learn some basic, middle-school level fact and then would talk about it and say, "No one knew this!"
