I voted Kamala, but she and Biden let me down. It wasn't one or two issues, it was a total breakdown of her campaign communication strategy. When you look at what apolitical idiot voters got from the media, it's a wonder she didn't lose by more.

Part of that communication failure was in not taking serious issues seriously. People aren't going to get off the couch for someone who summarily dismisses their legitimate outrage.

I hate virtue voters

I don't care if the democrats ever "win again" now.

So, what you're saying is that they got there ahead of you. I guess we do become what we hate.

I don't fathom how you don't understand this. Its fucking over.

Not while the Earth still spins and my heart is still beating. It's not over, it just got hard.

The allies weren't led by the United States. The US industrial base was critical and the US military involvement was significant, but we were late to the effort and the Russians did a lot more of the fighting. (With a ton of US equipment for sure.)

If the left ever actually abandons the Democrats, they will never win another election again. Leftwing activists are the only activists the Democrats have. What do you think the Democratic ground game would look like without activists?

As a self appointed representative of left wing activism, no, fuck you. You did this.

one or two issues

Damn, I wonder what it was about the outreach to these people that failed. The Democratic attitude of addressing issues by minimizing or dismissing voter's legitimate issues couldn't possibly depress voter turnout. /s

Fucking neoliberal brain-rot.

That's a false narrative. The people who stayed home weren't the ones "demanding" anything. The ones making demands were almost entirely the ones who understood that other people would stay home. Your attacking people like me who were outraged by the actions of the Biden administration and the incompetency of the Kamala campaign, both because of the horrors they represent, and because we knew the vote would be suppressed. I voted for Kamala, but she let me down.

The people who stay home aren't the left wing activists, they are the apolitical schmucks who don't even consider voting until the week or day of the election.

Top names on that list are Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the Democratic political consultants who destroyed her campaign.

The Nazis didn't start by rounding up the Jews, they started with the "sexual deviants". The parallel is a lot closer than you think.

Transgender people in Nazi Germany

Wait until you see how much money this saves you at the grocery store. This is going to be one hell of a "find out" moment for a whole lot of bigots.

You also missed the point. Why even pay the high cost of a military flight when they could just send them on commercial flights? It's because they love the visuals of human beings in chains being loaded into military transports. They kicked the porn out of red states, so they gotta get their fetish material somewhere.

As if Congress wouldn't already be having hearings if Biden was still president. If it happens on Trump's watch, then it's Trump's fault until proven otherwise. Some people don't get the benefit of the doubt.

I think it's safe to say that nobody will confuse Elon with a Nazi.

JD Vance is waiting on the wings.

Anyways, it's not Trump making these decisions. He's just signing whatever the Heritage Foundation puts in front of him. Trump isn't even capable of actually writing an executive order.
