Serves them right.

Well shit, Janelle, maybe you should have asked the lava frog before posting his picture on Twitter.

So if how good of a time it is to switch to Linux is always on an upward trajectory, then wouldn’t waiting to switch be the best thing to do?

When a better outcome is possible, but fails to happen, everyone who would have preferred it but did nothing to contribute to the effort is at fault. Had Kamala Harris won, a peaceful solution would not yet be achieved, but would still be possible. Now that Donald Trump has won, a peaceful solution is no longer possible. Is that what the people who stayed home or voted Green want?

Edit: the other stuff I said was kind of mean, so I took it out.

Because we live in the real world where we recognize that Trump or Harris were going to be the next president, and Harris’ ambiguity on Gaza and susceptibility to pressure from Democrat voters is, while not ideal, still better than Trump’s open lust for Muslim blood and complete indifference to what pro-palestinian voters want.

This is like saying “my vote doesn’t matter, it’s not like the candidate I would have voted for lost by a single vote”

“Their votes alone didn’t swing the election” and “Their actions were the opposite of helpful in preventing genocide” can both be true.

Donald Trump’s numbers barely changed from 2020 to 2024. He won because Democrat numbers collapsed. So their answer is to give their own voters even less to be excited about?

The lesson that he can do whatever the fuck he wants? I agree, he has learned that.

The meta verse was kinda fun to talk about, though. Because it was a train wreck.

No they won’t. They’ll repeat “promises made, promises kept” and if they’re forced to comment on prices they’ll blame immigrants or something. Reality has no influence on what Fox News reports.

No shit. If only we didn’t have a whole media ecosystem dedicated to keeping that sort of information from its viewers.

Dems unmistakeably snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, but it beggars belief that all the indictments and treason didn’t undermine Trump’s popularity any. The right-wing media machine must be one of the most effective brainwashing apparatuses ever to exist.

I expected someone to be evangelizing for Linux as an alternative to enshittified Windows.

Shocked this thread is an hour old with no mention of Linux. Whoopsie.

I recall reading early on that DNC campaign advisers were recommending against continuing with the “weird” rhetoric, and the article mentioned some specific people who had worked on the 2016 campaign. It floored me that those people still had jobs. I guess they got their way eventually. I now have no expectation that they won’t be doing the same shit in 2028.

DNC Leadership would rather lose with a neoliberal candidate than win with a progressive one.

Pretty sure this is satire.
