Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

marinus18

For what it’s worth, most far-left people I know personally, for as loudly as they curse Harris and the Democrats, still plan to vote for them (if they’re in swing states) and are trying to get the others to do the same. The only ones who are doing otherwise are the extremely online PSL and Green Party dipshits who seem to think that Republicans getting their dictatorship will radicalize people left faster.
No, the actual outcome will be it being almost impossible for us to organize, most leftists being jailed, and the general public acclimatizing to the new status quo after the first year or two. In established fascist regimes, daily life goes on, acts of heroism are few and far between, and the only reward for those acts is death.
Better to prevent it from consolidating power in the first place.
A weakness of the far left is that it’s 2 very different groups. Highly educated middle class and highly impoverished lower class and getting them to work together is hard. They often divide them by getting middle class people to be racist and getting lower class people to do scapegoating. When they unite they are almost impossible to stop.
(the most famous reference to this is in the famous book 1984 where the middle and lower classes are entirely segregated for this explicit reason.)

I think i read that one too. It’s less a “I like this person” fascination and more a “this is fascinatingly weird and foreign, look at the dumb monkeys.”
Pretty normal response.
Trump was an on-ramp for many’s intro into politics by making the thing into a trashy WWE episode.

Europeans also like to define themselves as more civilized than Americans. Trump really is the embodiment of every single stereotype Europeans have about Americans.

As if breaking God’s rule of not adding to the bible was bad enough, Trump is trying re-write our government’s laws and history to suit him. Sweet Jesus this man lost his mind.

Netanyahu claims Hezbollah has put a missile in every kitchen and a rocket in every garage in Lebanon.
that sort of rhetoric is mental.
He just therefore claims every civilian household to be a target.
Is this who you want to be seen hanging out with, America? This your homie, America?
Goddamn. You’re crazy.

I remember that the Nazis took their cues from American eugenicists at the time.
Was a real sobering moment for America that all their locker room talk got taken very seriously by some.

That wasn’t the only thing. The eastward expansion was pretty much Germany trying to do the same thing as America did. They even had their own version of manifest destiny.

I remember hearing in a university class that here in the USA some even forced some people to no longer be able to reproduce before we learn that the Nazis loved that idea. It sadly wasn’t just an idea people talked about.

Kamala’s campaign has officially reached $1 billion in fundraising since she started her campaign like 3 months ago.

The fundraising is one of the reasons why I’m skeptical of the polls.
She’s pulling in ludicrous amounts of money from mostly average folk donating.
Harris has a lot of fundamentals pointing her way.

Found this in the comments. Hope it’s true and it’s only some practitioners.

@Zincy
Maybe but Kamala is selling herself on “change”. This was an unforced error of the highest order.

IDK if it’s just me but why is America always addressed as if it’s a person with its own moral agency? I don’t hear people saying “Britain, you…” or “Australia, you…” etc.
