Nobody said Trump would be better, just that it's unconscionable to vote for a party defending and enabling genocide. The goal is simply to not reward genocide with votes. The whole "lesser evil" shtick doesn't work anymore, people see through it.

She's just the lib version of Tucker Carlson.
I'm glad someone's finally addressing this because i've been noticing this trend in entertainment for years now and it's been really pissing me off.
Same cuck energy as when the US bootlickers here in Europe go on and on about what a wonderful symbol of freedom and democracy the US is, how it's the greatest, strongest country on earth and won't you please protect us from big bad Russia. Fuck i hate these losers, at least one good thing that might come from this result is that it will hopefully shut them up for a while.
I heard some of the degenerate gambling streamers on Twitch lost a huge amount of money on betting sites over this election.
Fuck around and find out.
Give it some time. The German government is looking real shaky at the moment, might be the next we see fall.
I wouldn't bet on it. Westerners will understand nothing until they experience total societal collapse.
the dems would be more successful if they tried to move more to the right than they already are. [...] Plus, if you convince some republicans to vote democrat it's like you're getting two votes (you get one vote, and republicans lose one).
But this is exactly the logic that the Democrats have operated under since 2020, and now that strategy just lost them the election. You can't out-right the right. Even their win in 2020 was more blind luck that Trump happened to be president when Covid hit, since Biden only ran on "vote for me cause i'm not Trump". And any US administration would have mismanaged that just as horribly since they all serve the same class interests. There is no conceivable scenario in which a US president would put people's lives ahead of corporate profits.
Yup. Saw a few of them already saying they look forward to buying property in ethnically cleansed Gaza/West Bank.
Also this:
They really cannot keep their masks on can they?
To them anti-fascism is just a vibe, and social justice causes just an aesthetic, a way to signal team loyalty. When push comes to shove and they get scratched, all of their feigned sympathy with the oppressed goes out the window and they become foaming at the mouth Nazis indistinguishable from MAGA.
That would take a coup in Kiev.
I think you should read the article. The title sounds a bit libby but the piece itself is quite good and has, i would say, overall a correct analysis.
The only thing i'd criticize is the title, because Trump is just a symptom, he's not what needs to be defeated but the entire system that put people like him, Biden, Harris, Obama, Bush, Clinton, etc. in positions of power. The corporate uniparty is what needs to be defeated, regardless whether it dresses itself in red or blue, whether it wears its fascism openly or disguises it with liberal platitudes.
Then again i suppose you could argue the title is clickbait to get more people to read the piece... Makes it something you could share with a liberal friend or relative and trick them into reading a real materialist analysis for once.
