Why is this being downvoted?
Our only option is a guy who was, and continues to, be deeply unpopular? Who only won last time because (4?) establishment candidates rallied around him in the primary. Oh and who could very well die of old age before finishing his term…
Trump is a threat to anyone who is not a fascist. So why is the establishment(the DNC) continuing to prop up a candidate who is as unpopular Hilary Clinton: a candidate who already lost to Trump?
It does not matter if the economy is doing ‘better’, inflation is down, crime-rates are down, unemployment is down, etc etc etc. You’re average idiot does not pay attention to any of this - its all team-sports to them. They will sooner not vote at all - voter turn out was only 66% in the last election - the highest rate for any national election since 1900.
And all this before we even get to his foreign policy… what the fuck
I do not accept this is the only option. Find another candidate DNC.
profit over everything
humanity is too dumb to survive
Dont be obtuse. That minority gets the shit they want, regardless of public opinion.
Look at the supreme court. Look at climate policy. Look at the popular vote. Look at gun policy. Look at reproductive rights. Look at trans rights. Look at the fairness doctrine. Look at health-care. Look at infrastructure. Look at public education. Look at higher education. Look at privatized-prisons. etc etc etc
Im suggesting the democrats should do what they were elected to do; pass progressive policy and legislation.
You missed the greater point, in exactly the same way Dems do. I will try to put it a better way:
Your thinking and planning is constrained by rules. Their thinking and planning is not. You play fair, while they cheat. This is a losing strategy.
I swear the finger-wagging will work this time! Come on everyone, behave and follow the rules! /s
Seriously though, when will Dems key into the fact that the right doesn’t give a fuck about rules or institution? They’ve been doing obstructionist politics since Obama. They are obviously not interested in playing fair or governing effectively.
So, at what point do Dems become complicit?..
*I am not saying; don’t vote blue. Im saying we have to demand more from those who we elect before it is too late.
Its almost too late.
I initially thought this was the way to go too, but imo theres a problem: the only individuals who could produce high-level unwatermarked content would be those with access to GPU clusters—state actors and corpos, who would undoubtedly use it to manipulate the masses that have been trained to trust the watermark
I think in the best-case scenario, we’re just going to have to ride out a couple of very strange years while people adjust to a new reality. Shits gonna get weird
on top of doing nazi shit - in the 7 or so minutes he was covering his camera, he only uncovers it for the second or two that the teacher bends over in front of him. what a scum fuck
You’re not wrong. Turkey would support the US vs Russia. idk about US vs China though. Still, I’d say its a “dont put all your eggs in one basket” mentality from the defense dept. Then again, Im just some dumb guy on the internet so take it with a grain of salt lol
Israel and the US have a long history fighting “communism”. If America ever goes to war with Russia, Israel will almost definitely remain an ally and allow the US to conduct military action from inside their territory. The same goes for America vs China. Other allies in the region are less likely to. Especially if its US vs China.
Personally I think its dumb, but its going to take a long time to shake almost a century of red-scare propaganda. The west still views Russia (and China) as the Soviets - godless commie atheists. ie Israel is ostensibly on the side of capitalism and the christian god. Russia and China are not.
I think there are two main reasons
One, support for Israel is a huge part of wasp-end-of-the-world-prophecy and has been a life-time project for many boomers that are now very elderly. They will go all in on this last push before they die
Two, Israel is an American military base located in the middle of three continents. Congress will print infinite money to maintain it and Israel knows it
The whole thing is fucked
To all the upvoters: Average disillusioned leftie here.
Saying “I won’t support Biden in the primary.” is not the same as "i sTILl not goNna vOtE”.
I do not want ANY GOP to win any power, ever, anywhere.
We were saved by the young vote in the midterms and Biden has almost entirely lost those voters. Like it or not Biden is deeply unpopular. And I believe Biden would likely lose to Trump.
So how is pleading for a candidate from the DNC who stands a better chance at winning against the GOP an irrational position?
