One side aligns with my views 70% of the time. The other actively wants me and everyone like me to die. I refuse to acknowledge the differences between them. I’ll actually deploy this lack of understanding as a weapon to depress voter turnout and make sure the second group gets to wield power!
Do you not care about GENOCIDE???
/s
Genocide Joe!
Making sure the party that continually starts new wars in the Middle East gets elected will surely help my cause!
“Yeah but you support GENOCIDE!”
You say 'Genocide Joe!' like he didn't actually support and enthusiastically aid a genocide.
"If it hadn't been for Genocide Joe, I'd been married long time 'go..."
It must be so nice having worldviews that can be fully encapsulated by trolley memes
i'm somewhat of a centrist so i think it's gotta be somewhere between these two:
Can you explain this to me like I'm dumb? Cause I am. Is this making fun of the people who choose someone who's literally not connected to the track?
So, actually that question though? Genocide used to be a really, really bad thing, and here you're making light of it. I feel like people have lost the plot a bit if they talk about an actual genocide like this. "Yeah, sure they committed a bit of genocide, but have you seen the other guy?" I feel like I'm losing my mind
False.
One side SAYS they align with their views, and then do the same shit as Republicans, and kind of just expect you to swallow excuses. Meanwhile we've watched Donald act unilaterally with near absolute power for two years, so we know objectively that the lack of power was (and is) never the problem. It was that they didn't actually support what they said they did.
You don't know his views, he could be really into fracking, small business owners, and war.
That last one for sure.
Still, this is very obviously the worse outcome. Democracy isn't make a wish. You grow up and vote for the least shitty option to prevent the even more shitty options like an adult. Or you can keep crying about not getting your will like a child in the toy isle.
It was never about lack of power, but upending the democratic process.
Any president could plow through using executive orders, but no sane person would want that, and the fact that Trump is using that kind of power virtually unopposed because the GOP controls both senate and congress, should terrify everyone. Instead, here we are, asking why his predecessors wouldn’t resort to despotic measures.
LOL
People can't pay their grocery bills, rent, get an abortion, and are being criminalized for being homeless and I'm still hearing people talking about norms as if that is the important issue.
It is a massive negative that Democrats, having had the power to change the (air quotes) "democratic process" at least twice in the last 20 years, across multiple economic calamities for workers, chose not to do so. (Conveniently while increasing their own wealth exponentially in the process.)
Congrats on not being brown, or from a third world country
I am both brown and from a third world (both in the original unaligned sense and in the newer impoverished sense) country. You fucked us over with Trump.
The slaves didn't care that Lincoln said in his debates with Douglas that whites were superior to blacks and that he supported an Illinois law against miscegenation. They cared that he removed them from bondage. Smart people take whatever progress they can get.
no sane person agrees with democrats 70% of the time lmao, maybe like 25% at best
That's an optimistic percentage, and yet still not an excuse to avoid voting for them.
If I know somebody who agrees with the Dems 70% of the time they're basically the white dudes from Get Out.
it is propaganda method by the right, like your vote doesnt matter. thats how we end up getting schumers and hakeems of the congress, when less people vote, more conservative candidates are elected, this includes the DINOs. maine is currently fighting with susan collins, mills and platner 2 of them are conservatives.
