they got exactly what they wanted. They have nothing to say, they can continue to complain without reason about things that are unimportant.

(before people @ me, yes i'm right, they would care about like, children starving, or something else if the importance was what mattered)

I actually think less of them than I do of Trump supporters, and that's really saying something.

So let me get this straight:

The Democratic Party snubs the left— even the progressives. They court the right wing, parading the Cheneys around.

The democrats lose.

The rightwing voters get riled up by the mask-off hatred, while their politicians straight up lie to Muslims and Latino people, winning some of their votes.

The democrats lose ground across the board. Their entire turnout was depressed. No matter how many times they learned their views were losing them votes, they refuse to budge on the issues they were undoubtedly wrong about. The fuckin meme says “we didn’t vote for genocide!!!” We can all agree voting…for genocide is…bad, right?

And you’re blaming the people who were ignored and told once again to go fuck themselves? Because they couldn’t stomach voting for people publicly and unflinchingly supporting the genocide.

Not the lying fascists, not the losing party for being told they were going to fail and still failing?

This is exactly how you continue to fail and lose to fascists.

And im telling you right now. History won’t look back and say “those fools! They didn’t vote because of a teensy little genocide!” They will say “all of those people stood by while a holocaust was happening.”

Not a doubt in my mind.

This is your brain on the two party system. His team lost, but it can’t be his teams fault because it’s his team, you see?

90% of them were Russian/ Iranian/ Chinese/ North Korean trolls or bots. They got what they wanted, so it's on to the next thing. Probably undermining support for Ukraine.

Throwing your vote in the trash is a vote for garbage, and garbage won by a landslide.

The garbage voters really hate to hear it.
