What in the Jill Stein bullshit is this? You honestly think shit would be just as bad if a dem was in the Whitehouse? Do you need some help off the toilet?
Then why bother commenting?
Blackrock Inc. & Vanguard will continue profiting well after your quokk instance dies, so why bother blocking someone who knows how economies are debts games?
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris both supported the genocide in Gaza. Nancy Pelosi stood and clapped when Trump was making pro-interventionist remarks about Iran at the state of the union address.
I don’t like it either, but we can’t keep denying reality. The two party system needs to go.
Your skirting of my question and the demonstrably untrue claims you’ve made aside, yeah of course there are Dems that absolutely need to GTFO. Bad faith content like this is what keeps people from bothering to vote those people out.
I have to concede that 99% Hitler is better than 100% Hitler in the short term, that much is true, but if 99% Hitler wins then 100% Hitler can become 110% Hitler. Then 99% Hitler becomes 109% Hitler. That’s Blake’s Lesser Hitler Theory.
We need to LOUDLY and unanimously reject “Vote Blue No Matter Who” narratives, otherwise there is no incentive for the Democrats to ever move towards progressivism.
We also need to work on alternatives to electoralism broadly. I think the Black Panthers are a great example to follow.
Criminy, ‘vote blue’ doesn’t mean vote and then sit at home thinking your work is done. It means voting for the lesser evil and then continuing to leverage the whole of your might to making the system better. It means fight just as hard for justice, just do it while trying to pick a less evil bad guy to have to fight. You want a whole new system? Then fight for it, and vote blue while you’re at it because it’ll be easier to kick those idiots out than the outright fascists.
Sure, I get that, but if you always vote blue no matter who then there is no long-term harm reduction, it actually increases overall harm to have that philosophy. If you aren’t willing to withhold your support and vote third party then there is no incentive for democrats to try and win your vote.
What is going on here? Can’t be an LLM because at least the LLMs responses are based somewhat on what they’re responding to. This reads more like a script. I’m getting flashbacks to 2015.
Which of your instincts was to read my reply before responding because I would have gone with that. I don’t see how anything you’ve said is relevant to anything I’ve said.
That’s around when reddit really started getting astroturfed by right wing and ‘leftist’ boys and r/conspiracy became r/thedonald and r/the Donald was all over the front page all day every day.
2016 actually. i noticed around the time after the election. signifcant bans too, on seemingly implying anything about race or a politician should be “dealt with”
It’s someone who was indoctrinated in September / October 2024, was never deprogrammed, and has somehow navigated the interceding 15 months without reading anything?

Don’t bother.
There’s like 4 of these idiots on lemmy that parrot these both-sides memes.
One of them posted in nostupidquestions last week asking how americans can be the ones paying tariffs because they’ve never been charged a tariff.
You can’t unscramble an egg. Just block them and move on.
It’s more than 4, unfortunately. And if you inject even a modicum of nuance, you fail their purity test and are deemed a dirty liberal.

having your world view challenged is scary :(

FYI your arguing with a tankie about “vote blue no matter who” when that fucker’s never even voted.
I’m not a tankie, and I have voted in every election I have ever been eligible to vote in.
Says the legit fascist.
Oh no. Tankies defending libertarians. Everyone run! They going to stand by and do nothing.

What about short term crisis avoidance?
It’s been a decade since Trump won the presidency and we’re still on the same path
Whew then! Trump avoided jail 22 times!
I love FBI assets! It sure qualified immunized him! /s
but your entire government is fascist…

sounds botty as hell too, normal humans dont respond with that much " fake percentage pulled out of the behind" being thrown around.
I’m just autistic :(
…and you called me bad faith. My first instinct was to ignore your reply, I should’ve gone with that.
Which of your instincts was to read my reply before responding because I would have gone with that. I don’t see how anything you’ve said is relevant to anything I’ve said.
I was directly responding to the question you pointed out that I “skirted”
I can understand the confusion but you can just ask for clarification politely instead of calling me an LLM and saying I’m scripted :(
Seems reddit slop really got to him, esp. when he was flirting with Obama slop.
What happened in 2015?

Oh, I created this calisthenics account way after corporate slop AstroTurfed your binary mind. How was /r/Anarchism back then boomer?
lmao

we have whole communities demonstrating voting fixes nothing.
Are you this genocidal too?
