Are you talking about the time communists ran the only candidate who wasn’t either Hitler or the guy who appointed Hitler chancellor and the social democrats voted for the Hitler supporter to stop the communists and allowed Hitler to come to power instead?
Yeah I’d say there’s some similarities between that and communists opposing fascism today.

I guess not all Communists are genocidal dictators, just the most famous ones.

There’s no good way to argue with trump supporters so this is the easiest, least brain damaging way. All the arguments have been beaten to death 10 times over. And those that still claim 3rd party votes in november will change anything for the better won’t be swayed either.

Exactly, why did they feel the need to tell us?

It was just a honeypot. Served its purpose.

I will cast my vote between tears but nobody ever promised preserving democracy will always make you feel good.
In fact, I am close to launching into a really hard condemnation of every last one of you lazy-ass motherfuckers who expect everything to always play out like a 2-dimensional anime plot where you’re the good guy so you’re supposed to always feel good, and any struggles are easily overcome. Go back to your discord safe-spaces and let adults out here make the hard choices.

Okay? Oddly specific

did the image originally say trump? or is it from 2016 and said bernie? or maybe even ron paul?

I’m a capitolist, and I’m not voting Biden.
Enjoy the Trump win everyone. We deserve it. You can thank the DNC. And Hilary Clinton.
Also, who’s actually making the calls and decisions right now? It’s not Biden. Obama? Clinton? Or are the DNC themselves deciding?

As a transwoman of low income, I refuse to be sacrificed so you can take your moral high ground and smile as the world burns away the “unworthy”

Didn’t say you couldn’t vote how you want. You don’t have to smile, either

So who does the capitolost vote for? The rich control the decisions. Like always. The ones who fund the parties. The ones who back the people in power.
If the people got who they backed we’d probably have Bernie or someone else who got grassroot funding.

Not sure who I’ll write in yet.
EvilEyedPanda@lemmy.world 1 week ago
An administration is more than a man, Trump with absolutely 0 political experience was able to keep the country rolling, albeit making awful decisions, then the current mental state of Biden means very little. Having said that, as someone who watched my grandfather pass from Alzheimer’s, it’s really sad to see.
RatzChatsubo@lemm.ee 1 week ago
Normally I would agree as a democrat. But I genuinely think trump is a better pick over Biden rn. That’s how bad he is

I agree that it is heartbreaking that the democrats keep pushing candidates no one wants. But no amount of incompetence is a reason to give fascism a try. I don’t live in America, but considering they run this joint, I’d hate for it to become a shitier Russia.
Biden is definitely not fit to do anything him self, but he’s surrounded by good advisers and he actually fucking listens to them. Under his term not nearly as many horrific things happened as under trump. Trump’s an immediate menace to the world order as we know it. I find it really ironic how he claims to be pro American, but actively destroys the reasons people look up to America and let it have so much influence in the first place.

Quite frankly, go outside and have someone slap you in the face and wake you the fuck up.
It’s not remotely close. Biden still has an actual solid policy agenda, Trump is a senile and decrepit badger, shitting himself and scratching at everything he sees.
RatzChatsubo@lemm.ee 6 days ago
Idk man it’s really a hard decision this year. How can you say it’s not remotely close at this point?

Stay Mad, Tankies! While debates rage on, it’s always good to have financial options at hand. For those in need, cash advance apps no direct deposit required can be a lifesaver, offering quick funds without the usual banking hassles. These apps ensure you’re prepared for any situation, even when the discourse gets heated. Financial flexibility is key!

I wonder how many of the dyed-in-the-wool DNC supporters would stay home or vote third party if Biden wasn’t the candidate chosen at the convention.
rwhitisissle@lemmy.world 1 week ago
This is the thing. People like to blame Berniebros and whatnot for Clinton’s loss in '16, but the reality is that the centrist Democrats that vote for the party’s corporate-backed candidate wouldn’t vote for a progressive one, so even if Bernie had won the nomination, he probably still would have lost because he would have lost the support of these DNC hardliners. I heard people literally say in '16 that if Bernie had somehow won the nomination over Hillary that they would have just stayed home. It’s wild to think how ideologically balkanized the Democratic party is, with so many people fervently belonging to the leftist minority that holds their nose every election to vote for another mediocre person whose best attributes are being “not an outright fascist” versus the people who will never vote for a truly left wing candidate because they’re fiscally conservative but socially liberal and just allergic to compromising in the same way that they’ve forced the leftists in their party to do since forever.

What is sad is the American people DID vote for progressive policy. The problem is American politicians represent their donors, and turned their backs on their constituents.
There is no expectation for an elected Democrat to align with their party platform. Likewise no one can or should expect a Republican to break from their party. Any reliance on either is a fool’s errand.
I mean about 70% of Americans support at least a public option for health insurance. Yet there is no pathway forward for 70% of Americans with either party.
So it sucks that such an intransigent faction isn’t even representative.
