Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

TLDR;
Virtue signal all you want but it won't change the fact that ANY OPTION was more stable than Trump and when American needed people like you, you failed.
Bringing better candidates only works when the system works and this system was teetering on the brink of collapse that we didn't have time to do "purity tests" that the left does constantly for its candidates.
But I'm sure the LGBTQ community appreciates your concern for Gaza. ;)
Edit: Fun fact, Medicaid funding is primarily what Foster kids use for services. It would be a shame if that was slashed by a trillion.
But I will concede this, if the left is so adamant about being right, then they'd better fucking show up for Mamdani in New York considering Adams and Cuomo are striking unholy alliances with Trump.
Liberals will be voting for him. Let's hope the left is more than just rhetoric at this point.
Edit 2: Many of us groaned when she was even made VP considering her persecution of Black Men for minor weed charges. But she's still a better option than Cheetolini or Couch Fucker.
Reminder that she was made VP as a reward for helping a dementia riddled corpse ratfuck an actually progressive candidate out of the primary.
How's that Super Delegate system treating you?
"when American needed people like you, you failed."
Shove your condescension up your hypocritical ass you self-righteous blowhard. You've no idea what I did or didn't do to try and avert this fucking crisis and if you think for a moment that "people like me" weren't and aren't fighting for our goddamn lives and those of our communities you're so ignorant it's galling. Fuck you
Right back at you with your Gaza virtue signaling.
