  This isn’t a gotcha. Most ideological demographics are tiny minorities too small to succeed alone, but 3% of the vote could be the difference between a narrow win and a narrow loss for the DNC.

    If you need their votes, start acting like it.

      Because nothing the United States is doing under Trump is different than what it was doing under Biden, and under Trump I, and under Obama, and under Bush, and under Clinton.

      Fucking nothing.

      bull fucking shit.

      look, hate harris all you want, but iran? venezuela? cuba? migrants in cages?

      fuck off with that bullshit, it’s not the same, you simply cannot fathom the concept of harm reduction and will happily burn all your allies because you didn’t get your way.

      POLITICS IS NOT MARRIAGE, YOU DON’T GET TO PICK YOUR IDEAL PARTNER.

      you fucking children damned us to all this bullshit. great fucking work.

        Remember Afghanistan? Iraq? Syria, Libya, Yemen, Ukraine? And also Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, and a dozen others? And all the proxy wars and “interventions” I’m forgetting about or that never made the news?

        Pre-Trump America was less blatant in its warmongering. It made the effort to build “international consensus” before bombing the fuck out of poor brown people. And it preferred to made economic warfare, through sanctions, which don’t make headlines when they kill poor brown people.

        Harris would have killed Iranians with sanctions rather than bombs. And perhaps you think that makes a difference. But whether a little girl dies of starvation from American sanctions, or is blown up by American bombs, she’s still fucking dead.

        As for migrants in cages: Trump made no new laws. Trump made no new policies, even. Trump enforced existing laws more harshly and blatantly and publicly than America previously had. And Harris promised to do the same fucking thing in her campaign.

        What’s happening to migrants today is what the American people wanted. Only it’s happening openly, on the streets in Minneapolis, in front of a million cell phones and cameras, instead of out in the Texas desert where the only cameras belong to the Border Patrol. And that makes it harder for Americans to ignore.

        You got your ideal partner. You got genocide and don’t care who provides it.

      You’re very confident in your prediction that accelerationism will work out in the end.

      Did you vote for Trump? Because that would have been the rational decision based on your worldview.

        I don’t vote.

        Good people don’t vote.

        I may not be a good person but I try my best.

        And at least I can claim the dignity of knowing I didn’t participate in any of the Epstein class’s popularity contests.
