    ignores core voter issues

    spends entire campaign talking about how opponent is worse

    Tells entire uncommitted voter base to fuck off

    “Why did the voters do this to us? Those must be 10 million russian/maga/chinese shills in disguise.”

        In the context of people that claimed to care about the genocide, yep - the voters were undeniably wrong. That doesn’t make the Democrats any more right.

      I would tell the entire “uncommitted” voter base to fuck off. Here, I’ll do it again… “fffffuck off”.

      The main things these clowns are uncommitted to are democracy, rule of law, secular society, the constitution, justice, etc.

      And now, unsurprisingly, they have helped enable a fascist authoritarian takeover of the United States by taking our democracy hostage in the name of some stupid ~1500 year old holy war and a shitty piece of land governed and funded by the worst possible people. Is that good politics? Is that supposed to win people over?

      So, in return, I’m now “uncommitted” to giving half a shit what happens to them, here or abroad. The people who didn’t vote to stop Trump are to blame for what happens next.

        “I only care what happens to me in my country and give no shits about what happens to the rest of humanity that is brought about by what my country does. They can kill all those people so long as I have the freedoms those people are fighting for. Oh and I hope I can buy eggs for not an expensive price while my country is intrinsic in starving another population for no good reason”

          • If you had any valid point to criticize what I said you wouldn’t have to make shit up and put words in my mouth.
          • Neither of my countries created the situation in Israel/Palestine or the war that has been waging more than 50 years before I was born.
          • The Palestinians aren’t fighting for “freedoms” any more than the Israelis are, and both countries were a fabrication of the United Kingdom and the League of Nations. Netenyahu and Hamas were both fighting for conquest and genocide against the other side, in the latest chapter of a holy war over delusion religious cults that have nothing to do with me or my life. I believe in a peaceful two-state solution, it’s the Israelis and the Palestinians who unfortunately don’t.
          • The Unites States under Biden delivered more aide, food, and civilian resources into Gaza than any other country or organization on Earth. Is that our responsibility? Do we really have a duty to feed the world when we have people living homeless, starving and diseased in our own country? I really don’t think so. Palestine has powerful allies in the region and abroad that they can beg from.
          • I would argue that it is the Gaza-fanatics who put humanity and the world in danger when you look at the existential threats we face from the prospects of World War 3 and climate change, these people held American democracy and hegemony hostage in the name of their pet project which has little-to-nothing to do with America in the first place.

          Ultimately you can try to blame me all you want, but I did my part to help Gaza by voting for the person who was most likely to handle the situation the nuance and compassion required. Likewise, I voted against the person who will obviously give Netanyahu carte blanche to do whatever the fuck he wants with Palestine and the Palestinians. I’ll continue to vote for the better candidate and against the worst one, will you?

          Surely, Doland J Trump and his administration will fix all these problems and will not make them worse.

          Good thing I didn’t vote so that this stable genius with a traceable track record can take office and lead the World in peace and justice.

          Right? That’s what you’re saying?

              Ah right, didn’t mention Trump but commented in a thread on a meme about Trump, replied to a comment regarding voters abstaining from voting in a US election in which Trump won, and made sarcastic “high ground” comment. Are you lost?

        Here’s a 33 minute video explaining the tactics the right uses and the failures the Dems have in dealing with them. Please watch it. It is very interesting to learn about and too complicated to be summed up in a Lemmy comment.
