Elections have consequences and this is what they voted for.

"But when he said he was going to kick out all foreigners, remove all subsidies, kill expensive medical programs or change import/export, and I'm still in favor of that, I didn't think he was going to change anything about my cheap workers or my Medicaid that I need to live. And the stuff that I order for my business is so expensive now. Oh yes, I would vote for him again in a heartbeat."

They're seem to be a lot of those.

But her weird laugh😣

She didn't go on Joe Rogan🥱

She's going to start a war😰

Did I miss any other excuses?

[-] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 26 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The biggest one.

Kamala: I stand with Israel!

Trump: I stand with Israel, and I'm a fascist!

Leftist: it's the same picture

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Exactly. And even better - that bunch is/was so busy telling everyone what morally superior creatures they all are...

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

All the "genocide" shit. As if Taco and pals were going to be any better. But we had a lot of single-issue idiocy on this anyway.

FFS. Now we might just get blood in the streets in Gaza, AND here at home AND in random countries that Taco decides to go to war with.

Way to go. This is some real 9-dimensional chess.

i dont like her, she dint say anything about her plans,

she cackles like a hyena she was a cop that was hardlined against african americans, she wasnt a good AG.

-we know you all sexist/racist conservative are saying.

It's almost like things might have been better if we had some kind of primary process to choose a candidate that suited us instead of having one thrust into the candidacy without any vetting whatsoever.

[-] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sorry but do either of you folks believe we'd be four months from societal collapse if Trump hadn't won?

I didn't much care for her, either but she would've bought all of us another four years of boredom before we had to deal with Trump again, and by that time he'd be four years closer to death and a voterbase four years over him and onto another obsession.

The long-game is the only one that matters. Gaza could've likely not been prevented, but eased? I'm willing to bet what Palestinians are left would be better off of she were president. Gaza itself likely not, but we can't have everything unless you're all willing to throw some bricks and start some fires.

A fellonious pedophile sits in the white house and you're still on your ass, so... guess not

I was told by many stupid fucks that Trump winning would do a thing to activate leftists or that these uber sexy single leftists were already hot and available in my area and doing all of the activisms and organizings that could ever be done, so it wasn't actually a problem if Trump won.

Then he wins and shocked Pikachu face, these marvelous leftists that own the streets were nowhere at all to be found.

Democrats are pathetic, sure. But so is this supposed mass movement of online leftists, that just needs a bit more accelerationism to activate bro, I promise bro, just a little more fascism and we'll revolution, bro! I'm definitely not a concern troll, bro! No way bro!

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Well said! No notes.

Bang on about the concern troll thing. I'm so very sick and tired of that. I'm sure all their sanctimony is a great comfort to them as they watch shit get worse nearly every day. That's if some of the trolls even have to live in this country, that is...

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

this is how I feel. that there is some sort of civil/revolutionary war romance idea when people really need to look at history and how often civil/revolutionary wars actually resulted in a better situation and of those how many had some sort of external assistance to get them to a better situation.

[-] socsa@piefed.social 2 points 1 year ago

It's because these spaces are just infested with fascists pretending to be leftists, telling the actual leftists not to vote, and they fall for it as reliably as Trump falls for teenagers.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think gaza would have been much better off. I don't think israel would have moved forward with annexation and more aid would have been pressured in which would result in more pressure on thier safety.

[-] HubertManne@piefed.social 1 points 1 year ago

oh yeah. the primaries are the problem with who was elected in the general. thats totally the problem.
