MODERATORS
it's because the dems tacked hard right to appeal to the mythical "moderate conservative" while telling everyone to the left of them to fuck off for months and months on end. people were shouting from the rooftops that this was going to cost them the election, and damn wouldn't you know it, it looks like it did! will they learn from it? probably not!
Just commenting to say I love your name lmfaooo
Why would they learn? They'll be fine.
This is what people don't seem to understand. This is not some mythical "huge force." Democrats elect their people through primaries and they rise. Same as ever.
But all the people who don't participate? YOU are the ones that have to suffer. Harris was a fine candidate. Sure she wasn't Santa Claus on Christmas but she was fine and a million ways better than Trump. But people said "eh, I'm ok with Trump then" and didn't vote for her.
She isn't gonna suffer. The DNC isn't going to suffer. YOU and I are. This is what we call an "own goal." And all the people wanting more left policy? Well good fucking luck when they stack the SCOTUS with 40 year old right wing fucks, stack the rest of the courts, and move everything back another 20 years progress-wise. Think you're getting better healthcare soon? Think again. It got a ton harder now. Worried about the climate? Great! Because it was fucked before and it'll be fucked a fuck more now. What little we were doing is going up in smoke.
Besides that- two things can be right. The Dems need to refocus AND shithead lazy ass nonvoters need to get off the fucking couch and vote no matter what. Well, if they can still vote in a free and fair election in 2/4 years.
Are you suggesting that if a voter doesn't feel that either candidate will represent their needs, they should vote anyway?
They should be smart enough to vote for the one who gets closest to their needs. If they're not a complete moron that is.
The car is moving in one direction or another. It'd be smart to at least move it in the direction you think it should go.
And theyre jackasses for that. It's a civic duty. Go write in Mickey mouse. But you should be voting regardless.
And if you don't then you can just stfu about anything because you never did the bare minimum to change anything.
this literally did not happen this year.
man, Hard Times really was right on the money, Dems aren't going to learn a single thing from this. I don't know how to tell you that people are not going to get excited to go vote for Diet Republicans that don't represent their positions. they will simply stay home! that's literally what happened here, and you're sitting here going "errrrmm they're actually just lazy 🤓 don't they know about DRUMPF???"
And their dumbasses will get fucked by trump just the same. Congrats to them.
You guys think the dems really care. They'll be fine. But hey, act like youre really sticking it to them. Im sure theyre so hurt and won't make ends meet now.
