They are upset you are trying to turn their china bashing into a discussion on propaganda
The fucking cybertechnicals, I can't even
Jokes on you, 60% of nothing is still zero!
Kinda, for context, at this time in America, Nixon founded the EPA, proposed a bill for ubi*, and reparations were being discussed. This was without a doubt the high water mark for progressivism in the west. The governments involved were still rabidly anti-communist but they understood that a well off populace was far less likely to become revolutionary.
Keynesian economics is the basis of programs like the New Deal, short version is that during economic busts, the government should reduce taxes and deficit spend on work programs to revive the economy, and during boom times to cut spending and raise taxes to pay off the previous deficit.
But vassals don't change color to match the overlord, the man wants to map paint
Yes, but no. More years for context (count in millions)
2016: 66 Hillary v 63 Trump
2012: 66 Obama v 61 Romney
2008: 69 Obama v 60 McCain
2020 was a rarity in terms of turnout, 4 years of trump motivated a lot of angry Dems, but 4 years of Nothing will fundamentally change doesn't really excite the base. Add on top of that the Dems last second changed their nominee to a person who dropped out of the 2020 primary because she did not have a base.. If I remember right, it was so bad even mayo Pete had a higher percentage of the black vote.
Look at the vote totals, (as of right now) Harris 66 mi vs Trump's 71, compare this to 2020, 81 Biden vs 74 Trump.There is also this Pew article which shows the breakdown of non-voters
The simple conclusion is that the singularly most important thing a politician can do is excite and move their base. For how awful/low energy his campaign was this year, trump still excites and moves a base, while kamala was confused about what base to cater to- first calling Republicans weird then copying their platform and getting the dick Cheney approval.
This all could have been avoided if the Dems actually had a primary this year, but I think the DNC is actually afraid of progressives taking the party back over
Poor dude swallowed watermelon seeds
Once again joining the pandemic on the side of the disease. Praise Grandpa Nurgle!
The founding fathers were afraid of the "tyranny of the masses" so they intentionally designed every step of the US government to be as conservative and undemocratic as possible. It is less stupid and more malice which drove our cluster fuck today.
Chinese organ harvesting has gone too far this time!
They probably heard you call monarchies cringe
