“The future ain’t what it used to be.”
-Yogi Berra
Yes we heard you the first 3 times. Its the voters fault. The Democrats are merely victims, completely maladroit at managing their own fate.
You aren’t making different any new points or clarification, just repeating the same, tired tropes that just handed the US democracy over to fascism. And we get it, you are incapable of expanding your understanding beyond the initial assumptions you made. No need to repeat yourself any longer.
I think your point is well made, and this thread is demonstrative of the entire point I was making to PugJesus.
PugJesus is the definition of incurious when it comes to understanding why their rhetorical approach failed.
What do you expect when you just keep putting the same performative toxicity on display?
This is all just the same toxic projection that I’ve been pointing out in this thread.
You want to blame third parties but there is basically 0, practically negative evidence for it.
I’m really sorry if you’re having a bad day,
Why did that lead you to respond in such an angry manner?
I think you need to take a breath and check to see if you’ve made any correct assumptions whatsoever in this conversation. The tone of my response couldn’t be more sanguine.
Its always interesting and telling how people respond to things. Your assumption that I don’t own a fire arm tells me more about you than it ever would myself.
aren’t you the nation with the most guns?
Yes, and ownership is predominantly with those who want to kill/ deport immigrants. In the US, there are ~120.5 guns per 100 people. However, this statistic is misleading, because you might expect most people to have 1 gun, and a few people to have more than one to get to that statistic. However, most households do not have a fire arm.
So the average gun-owner, actually owns from 4-8 guns, while the majority of Americans own 0 guns. We have a culture of gun-obsessed rightwing psychopaths.
There is a term for the act of only looking for evidence that confirms your bias. If the “strategy” worked, then why isn’t Kamala Harris president?
And if that wasn’t the goal of the strategy, what point is it that you think was being made in the first place?
No, it was just part of a broader culture of infantalism demonstrated by Democratic apologists. There was no there there. Just people desperate for something to blame for their incompetence.
Its so hilarious how this ridiculously toxic culture around blaming third party was developed, worked on for months, and then when it came time, the impact of third parties was so utterly irrelevant as to be laughable.
or maybe you just have naive comprehension of how people work
You can tune in right now: Nothing, forever.
For the previous 8 years, instead of fighting fascism and white nationalism, the Democrats have made their enemy the populists within their own party.
It ended expectedly.
I mean look around you. For years’ we’ve been shoulder to shoulder with apologists who claim to be on the supposed “left” but keep making excuses to defending the indefensible.
You can’t have bipartisan ship with fascism: thats just more fascism.
You can’t expect people to support the lessor two evils: its just more evil.
Policies that only ever do half of the job of fixing the problem never results in the problems being solved.
What we’re experiencing is the true cost of the half-a-loaf politics of the liberal, NPR, Pod-Save-America, Democrat. Obama-era nothing burger chickens come home to roost.
stop sending ALL aid to israel now.
To the first point I made. There is 0 evidence for this what-so-ever. This is just something you are making up to support a narrative. You have not even the suggestion of evidence to back this statement up.
The toxicity is a culture looking for punching bags rather than showing real introspection. Third parties were utterly irrelevant, and most of the “conversation” around them, were deeply toxic Blue-Maggots blaming them in advance for Harris’s yet-to-be-failed election. I mean, its the definition of the thread we’re in. Its what the comic is about.
Its literally absurdist. Everything you’ve said, the comic, the entire cult that you are a part of: its in direct opposition to all of the evidence we have.
And thats why I’m making these points, not because I expect to convince you, but because its important to put your, now obviously detached from reality, toxic approach to rhetoric, on display.
The blaming of third parties, or anti-war voters, or Muslims, or whichever punching down group you want to single out, on behalf of a Democratic party so severely detached from its own base, is the definition of Blue-MAGA behavior, and it lost the Democrats the 2024 election. Its all on tape. We’ve got it on record. Blue MAGA was told what the consequences of their rhetoric would be while they were doing it, so they can’t pretend to be naive to the consequences we all now have to experience because of their stupendous arrogance.
