a year of repression and lying every day, someone's being punished for speaking out against genocide every day, the u.s. government is blatantly lying about the targeted assassination of aid workers and ignoring every single thing they tell us about what's going on in gaza

It didn’t really take root but this is a kid who has never been interested in Middle Eastern affairs and all of a sudden is really angry with his government.

I think that is ridiculous. Sounds very lefty/righty though.

Election after election it is obvious that faith is used to sway popular opinion. Much of history demonstrates that this trait most often culminates in theocracy just before the dissolution or reformat of that religion in the inevitable revolution.

@godpod.bsky.social Bingo.

Conspiracy theory much?

It is isn't it? It's entirely clear what was responsible for 10 million people not showing up.. these are absolutely biblical numbers, and nothing says biblical like Palestine

No.

We want to CHOOSE our candidates based on actual policies, not joy. If this continues, you are going to see a lot more voters voting Blue downfalls, but leaving the top spot blank. Wake up, folks. There were plenty of warnings. Give the people real choices, or the party will fail.

Yes, perfectly true. Well women in countries where they are severely suppressed visit immense cruelty on the other women with lower status.

The majority will not act against their own best interests. It is obviously for no other reason than this was a stolen election.

It is…not obvious to me. What point are you making?

Wait’ll they get a load of what’s coming. Genocide GOP is lining itself up as we speak. How do they not see this? Like, at all?

The Covid 2020 election had voters truly afraid of Trump. Living among death. No vaccines. Mail in voting easier everywhere.

LOT of young people were JAZZED to hate the Dems by The Young Turks. They have a huge following and are the left version of trumpers. A few months before the election they POURED grease on the fire of HATING Dems and HATING Kamala. AND Racism AND Misogyny YOUNG PEOPLE lost it, many Young Turk ppl.

I had a Harris sign on back of my car. I was constantly tail gated every one of the nut jobs would yell something “fuck that bigger bitch” I had proud boy wanna be follow me into public spaces cuz just wanna know why a white guyp have a her sign. It was never about policy or qualifications

Absolutely correct.

Yup... 🎯

Like a year late. What I'm coming with this is that the explanation that we loss because bad people didn't vote, is cheap. We need to demand better politics to get better electors.

democrats dont want to accept that the working class has very little reason to vote for them. "trump bad" is not a convincing argument even if its true

Cast system thrives and knows no political party, IMHO that's why they didn't vote, because rightfully so, they couldn't vote for the #OrangeFelon You nailed it sir 👍🏽🫡

Also, Trump has been campaigning for 9 years, Kamala had such a short time & there was so much about her campaign strategy that wasn't thought all the way through. Also, people were lumping her in with Joe Biden, believing that she be carrying out his policies.

What are you talking about? How did Harris offend her base?

Biden’s failure to step aside sooner given his obvious problems communicating also cost us votes. She had a very high heel to climb.

I do think that that has a lot to do with it. I read that only 13% of Republicans think of women should be president and only 75% of the electorate. Those are great odds we are a very backward country.

You're an idiot

Yep.

Pretty stunning when you remove the background noise and look at it in plain terms. Disgusting.

That part.

Yes, the racist stayed home.

Bingo. 😡

We didn’t have the House. And the margin in the Senate is razor thin.

so it went from 2 years of total control to "well it's not like we could've had total control that's impossible " www.voanews.com/a/usa_us-pol...

Wow - really drew the trolls with this point. Must be something they'd rather keep us confused over.

Polling said Kamala was doing pretty well after the debate. Her momentum dissipated when she couldn’t deliver a coherent message about how she would be different to Biden. If you have an unpopular incumbent who’s a shambling corpse then maybe you should hold a primary?

Some will say they are too left, and some will say they are too centrist. But you just go ahead and sweep the gender angle under the rug. Maybe ask Latino men why they didn’t vote for a woman. Maybe ask why Trump got more of the black vote this time than any Republican in history.

100%. I don’t know enough about Gavin Newsom to form an opinion, but from the few clips I’ve seen of him, coupled with him being a “white, straight American”, he’d have probably gotten it over the line.

Absolutely what I think.

The saddest part is that every single one of them are online, with the Internet at their fingertips and perfectly capable of finding out exactly where non partisan Fact Checking is. Or where they could research the truth. But they just couldn't be bothered. All you had to do was Google Is this True

IDK. I see the numbers are still changing.

There were two possible outcome of the election; one much worse than the other. And non-voters/thirds party voters enabled a Trump fascist dictatorship. Gaza isn’t going to change for the better under Trump. Yes, the Dems were far from perfect but a Trump dictatorship will be devastating.

Then say it. Why did they stay home?

Plausible deniability is a standard corporate practice to avoid consequences
