Stop dividing the left!

heeheehee! if only the world was as simple as the mind that made this meme

Heeheehee! If only not voting brought us further away from fascism
- Heeheehee! If only voting brought us further away from fascism
  
  Heeheeheehee, don't vote, it's pointless!
  -Donald Trump 2016, while making a winkie face, and Donald Trump 2024, also making a winkie face
  
  "reach for the sky!"
  "there's a snake in my boot!"
  "this town aint big enough for the two of us"
It's not as simple as this meme. But it did, however, basically happen back in 2016
- i wonder if that's true.
  
  Cringehallry wins
  Trumpism dies in the cradle
  Roe v Wade Stands
  Joe Biden never president
  No "sleepy president" movement
  We don't deport protestors
  Being Trans isn't illegal
  People aren't sent to torture prisons without trial
  No exec orders against lawyers for disagreeing with the government
  I don't drink myself to death
  Seems a better timeline tbh.
  
  stay in your own thread, woody

Wow I didn't know that "Glass Gaza Now Donny G" was the better option. You almost got me convinced, Eepy Joe was so much worse than "Remove the Gazans, let's build a resort" DJT
- You didn't have an option moron. No matter what you losers do at the ballot box you get the same results. Maybe if your shitty party stood for something and all the people who didn't vote for them actually cared enough to vote you'd have what you want. Instead you get what you fucking deserve.
  
  Explain exactly why "kill the Palestinians, build a resort, send anyone who protests to a concentration camp" is a preferable policy.
  
  The republicans and democrats have the same policy. The only difference is Trump has a big mouth. Maybe, just maybe, instead of fighting people on lemmy and guilting people for not supporting genocides you actually changed the policy of the party to make the Democrats accountable and had them state with words "We would not supply Israel with billions of dollars to murder people" then you would have won. You couldn't do that. You can never do that because the policies of the parties are not different. The democrats have been in power for just as much time as the republicans or more this century and look at where that got you. You failed. This is your fault for supporting a party of losers.
  
  If you did not vote in this last election when you could have, you are complicit in the Trump administration. You OK'd everything Trump is doing, plain and simple :(
That happens no matter who you vote ... So yeah sure, pretend voting 3p means you're doing anything other increasing the chance of oppression

They said the same thing about every Republican as what they say about Trump. If you live your entire life in hyperbole people get desensitized.

Thank you for your input my Gen Z pal, but I don't recall any other president destroying law firms for representing their political opponents, nor calling for blatant retaliation against journalists that don't jerk them off.
Also don't personally recall a president deliberately destroying the economy through sheer stupidity, but maybe someone older can check in, it may have happened historically.
No, no they didn't. I've been through a number Republican presidents... Well 3 others .. And not one of them was said to be a threat to democracy, not one of them was said to be a threat to the rule of law, and not one of them was it questioned whether they would leave office if they lost election.
It is a bullshit statement to say Trump is a standard Republican and what Democrats are saying is just hyperbole, and this is what they always say. The only way you can possibly think this is if you've only been exposed to Trump presidencies.
