    I wasn’t super fond of the democrat’s platform either man, but I definitely wanted Not Fascism and Some Semblance of Human Rights to win.

    Now we have nothing, and I have to make plans to figure out how to get my girlfriend out of the country if she ever needs reproductive care. Great job!

      Well hopefully blaming progressives instead of the people who actually voted for trump makes you feel better at least?

      News flash, neoliberals are already fascist, they are just better at hiding it. They even endorsed Dick fucking Cheney.

      ‘But Trump’ got you Trump twice now, and you’re blaming the people that tried to save you from yourself.

        Children try to help with tasks they are incapable of doing as well, that does not mean we should alter our actions to cater to them.

        How has this worked out so far?

          You got Trump elected twice.

          Good job, if that was the intent.

          Your child analogy is sophistry trying to pin responsibility for the DNC’s failures on others to preserve the paycheck of checks notebook oh yeah, the campaign manager of John Edwards failed primary campaign who then went to work for Clinton in 2016 and Harris in 2024.

          You’re carrying the water for people who continue to fail up and then fail using the same strategy that failed them before.

          Good job.

          But… I’m guessing you’re not aware of the whole DNC consultant class that continues to drive failing campaigns that fail to get votes but succeed in getting billionaires contributions that get given to the consultant class so they can buy their next yacht. None of this is hidden either, it is public.

          Which makes the irony of an ignorant person like you repeating the lines that fail to win votes but maintains the jobs of the people failing calling other people children.

          EDIT: You’re like a musk fanboi with a paid for blue checkmark. Difference is that the musk fanboi at least knows they’re a fanboi.

            You seem to have extrapolated quite a lot from such a brief comment. Is it possible you may have misstepped in some of your assumptions here?

      A party that insists we have to support genocide is already fascist and has no regard for human rights except to use as bargaining chips to get votes. Sorry.

        There is more than one topic to consider. If they both are truly the same in your mind on that topic maybe look at other factors that heavily impact people? Voting for a 3rd party who has no chance of winning literally does nothing.
