What drugs did you get into?
This looks clearly like a sarcasm to me.
I'm still confused by what it's even supposed to imply. 🥴
That in spite of the numbers that Bernie and AoC are drawing, the Democratic National Committee will continue to push further right, and in fact are possibly stupid enough to see the crowds as validation for having shifted right already, or conniving enough to claim the crowds an an excuse to justify having done so even though they know the crowds are there demanding action against the right.
That the Dems have been provably and measurably shifting rightward since Reagan.
capitalist electoralism
I don’t understand why even the left in the Democratic Party will not try to help the ballot counting in the red and purple states; at least try to set up grassroots movements to demand the ability to recount electric voting based on paper ballots alone? Or even just use paper ballots like all the other democracies do.
This is something both parties have refused to touch for decades . Even Trump’s rant about cheating the last few years avoided all the real topics.
Until this topic is addressed nothing much will change in the long term
If only this was a year ago.
Politics doesn't begin and end in a voting booth.
These people wouldn't have come out for Kamala.
She was a "colored" woman... IMO the US still has a problem.
The Israeli deliver-the-shit-they-got-80-years-ago-and-all-politicians-are-blind-to-it thing was only icing on the we-want-the-good-ole-boyz cake.
The issue with Harris is that its both.
Obviously there's the sexism/racism component which is gross, and shouldn't fucking be a thing.
But she's also a genocide supporting, hard-line law-and-order DA. So a lot of people are refusing to vote at all over that.
Would've loved to see AOC run, though I don't know if she had hit 35 in time yet.
AOC was valid to run. The rule is the candidate must turn 35 before January 20, which she did.
But both candidates were pro-genocide... that wasn't a differentiating issue.
Notice how I said they didn't vote, not they voted for trump.
And, I say this as someone who voted for Harris:
Not voting is a vote for the candidate you like the least, but most people who made that decision weren't actively thinking that, and to pretend they where is in extremely bad faith.
