MODERATORS
The USA has always been a horrid country but to act like neoliberal Democrats are the same as the warmongering fascists that make up the Republican party is pretty fucking stupid.
The American population could have voted in Harris and then pushed for change but instead voted in a party that is repeatedly pushing for the invasion of Canada, Greenland/Denmark and Panama while also ACTIVELY bombing Venezuelan fishing boats in an attempt to instigate a perpetual war.
Fuck off with the whataboutism
Those neolibs aren’t without fault though. Abstainers and protest voters got us where we are today.
they dint want a women, especially a POC one in power. besides from supporting Israel, its only her sex that bothered male voters, when pressed, they give the excuse of "not liking her, or dont know her policies,,,etc" they can say they hate women, but are too afraid to say it out loud.
They're not the one doing whataboutism. The topic of discussion was the impacts of farming and the use of migrant labor. "Whataboutism" is leveraging an off-topic criticism to distract from something that disproves your belief. As an example, imagine someone who was both unable to defend the exploitive labor practices Harris advocates for, so they suddenly pivot to talking about something wildly unrelated like military policy.
