New Headline: Kamala Harris Doesn’t Know Difference Between Army & Marines.

[-] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 34 points 11 months ago

The American left: I won’t vote for an old white man! We want change!

“Ok he’s gone, here’s an educated, youthful black woman”

The American left: ew, not like that!

(No need to reply I’ve heard all the excuses you’ve all made to explain why the black lady is hitler and just as bad as trump, by the way those excuses like typical Americans, focus on other countries and what they’re up to, instead of fixing your own damn country)

"Ehh, it'll be easier to block Trump on fundamentally everything he does as he dismantles the country and straps American prosperity for his own gain than to influence Harris' foreign policy. I think I'll make my voice heard by just not voting."

Idk I think many Americans are that shallow but I think the majority don't care about skin color or gender. I think she would have won if the Dems hadn't tightened the leash and let her run a more progressive campaign instead of forcing her to go into lock step with Biden and campaigning with Cheney.

Ive seen that one of the major demographics that swung the election was Latino Men, and a lot of the follow up was that there was a lot of sexism/racism in that. They couldnt fathom a black lady being president. At the time, Trump was already threatening to throw them out of the country, and they still voted for him.

And yet the Mexican President?

[-] Makhno@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Mexican doesn't encompass all latinos...?

[-] RvTV95XBeo@sh.itjust.works 7 points 11 months ago

Maybe the majority of Democrats, but make no mistake, the "DEI Hire" comments being shouted in from the right are nothing more than racism and sexism.

She was (and still is), despite the shit circumstances of her nomination, one of the most qualified people in the country for the Office of the President.

[-] FriskyDingo@sh.itjust.works 6 points 11 months ago

If she'd kept talking about housing and price gouging she wins, maybe even without distancing herself from Biden on Gaza. If she does all three it's the landslide the ppl were predicting before she went on tour with Liz

I don't think Harris was progressive at all. She seemed disingenuous, media-trained to be as uncontroversial as possible, and every talking point focus tested. Her major economic policy was to give more money to business owners. I think Waltz is somewhat progressive, and they did put a leash on him. I agree she would've won if she was more progressive, especially if she focused on policies benefiting labor.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 11 months ago

the hilarious thing is that they had tim walz as a running mate, and everyone obviously LOVES him because he seems like a genuinely good person, and kamala just kinda.. did nothing with that?

like especially when contrasted to walz, harris just feels like a cardboard cutout, and democrats are just puzzled why people give up on voting as a whole

The amount of people who are BuT GeNoCiDe screaming is pathetic. They didn't give a fuck about Sudan being in a civil war, they don't care about Myanmar. They don't care that trump wantonly supports Russia who's ethnically cleansing Ukraine right now, it's just all about Gaza for them.

Somehow, trump gets a pass from them with Russia, but Israel doing what Israel has done pretty much since it's existence is the fault of only Kamala.

[-] Furbag@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

True. I know these fake ass leftists who cry about "Genocide Joe" are disingenuous because they never gave even 1% of the same amount of fucks about the ethnic cleansing of the Uyghurs. I have to remind people that there are still multiple genocides going on as we speak, but the only one that seems to get any political attention is Israeli cleansing of Gaza. Those crimes against humanity are but one of the horrible things being carried out and not only is it not a new/recent event, but it shouldn't come as any surprise that our government both Democrat and Republican, have never lifted a finger to curtail it since the state of Israel was formed after WW2.

The Dem voters who stayed home and let Trump win because of Biden's foreign policy with Israel are beyond moronic. Congratulations, you voted with your conscience, now the pro-genocide candidate is in office and Israel has 4+ years to glass over Palestine and completely eliminate it's peoples. Well done.

[-] AnalogNotDigital@lemmy.wtf 2 points 11 months ago

Yeah man I'm in the exact same camp as you on this.

I've said it once and I'll say it again. The "left" isn't a big enough voting bloc to swing an election. I'm an anti-electoralist and I voted for the fucking cop. Most of us vote despite our opinions on the two party system. Blame white liberals. They're the ones who didn't show up

[-] crusa187@lemmy.ml 7 points 11 months ago

Blame white liberals. They're the ones who didn't show up

100%.

As a fellow leftist who also held my nose and voted for the anointed Kamala, these tired attacks on the left with our “incredibly massive amount of political sway” are getting quite old.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

Seriously. If the left are to blame for harris' loss, if they really can swing elections like the centrists who hate them claim, the left are kingmakers and should be treated accordingly.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

No one on the left would've ever said that. I think you're confused about "the left". You're calling uneducated idiots "the left"
