It's been hard trying to ram into liberals' thick skulls that the "lesser evil" voting shtick that comes every four goddamn years doesn't quite energize people to haul their asses to the booths, especially when said lesser evil is the incumbent. But I've seen some come around recently, so it's something.
Yeah. I'm cool with it. Fuck those fascist shitheads. Some
were handwaving "Genocide Joe" saying it was a GOP talking point. Fucking hell. I used to wonder, how could the Holocaust happen? How could so many people be complicit in something so horrible? I still don't understand it, but I'm afraid I'm starting to.The rhetorical refuge of libs trying to vote scold right now is that genocide is going to happen either way, so you need to swallow your selfish pride and vote for the least bad genocide enabler.
A vote for someone endorsing genocide is apparently not approval of the genocide either. Vote for genocide but shake your head while doing it so everyone sees you disapprove.
At this point, does it even matter what their spin doctors and their strategic autopsies conclude? If an electoral system only presents two options against genocide: feverish support, or guilty complicitness then it's fucking useless, it belongs in the garbage. It sucks that it took me a genocide to really really recognize how useless partisan electoralism is, because it's hard to dispell the illusion that maybe it'll give you some crumbs if the right guy comes along. Nope, not even in the face of genocide will it cede an inch.
Idk tho today's election results look pretty bad for the GOP lol. Just like the midterms did. Its possible that Joe himself will lose the presidency while GOP lose heavily elsewhere though? But like, the GOP is still dealing with a deflated base that got what they wanted in Dobbs and don't care anymore, and continue to run on culture war bullshit that noone actually cares about.
There's also the issue of RFK Jr, who is apparently mostly pulling votes from Trump.
Like yes absolutely 100% the genocide is going to deflate the zoomer vote* that helped Dems out so much in the midterms but I think the GOP is having electoral problems too, not the least of which that they support the Genocide too, which is going to make the whole thing a mess.
*Not to mention the Muslim vote which obviously tanked for good reason, and is a material thing in at least one swing state.
I'm expecting Islamophobia to become even more ingrained as usual with libs leading the charge and going "If Muslims didn't want Islamophobia maybe they shouldn't have voted for the Muslim ban president 💅"
Nah, havent you heard? The dems won the Kentucky governors race by a few points so absolutely nothing has to change and Biden will breeze to victory in all the swing states polls say hes seriously underwater in
Obama had a close election against Romney in 2012, but that was with Obama who has a lot more charisma than the wet noodle that's Biden. Romney isn't really charismatic and the only reason libs like him is because he's "respectable." Trump has genuine charm and anyone who says otherwise hasn't spent a considerable amount of time in rural parts of the US where he's still adored.
I hope the democratic party loses the next thousand elections
I don't see why that should concern us. It was annoying to be blamed for 2016 because there was nominally an electoral left that was trying to win over "progressive" liberals. Getting tarred for spoiling the agenda of the party was counterproductive to the goal of improving the agenda of the party. Now that that strategy has failed utterly (largely because the non-voting population could not be convinced that that shit actually mattered) and the champions of the electoral left are riding the Sybian for AIPAC, it doesn't really matter that we're the enemies of the Most Progressive US President in History. Damn right we are. The whole thing's a farce, and we only neutralize all hope of resistance by pretending otherwise.
There's a lot of time between now and then. I'm sure there will be an updated reason it's the left's fault by then. Perhaps even a different genocide!
Please, join me in writing in Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. I don't even know what his politics are (I assume generic centrist feel-good crap) but god damnit we have to get these pro-wrestlers to start running for president. The country is fucked no matter what electoral outcomes, so why not have it at least be more novel?
Nah he would most likely still win today imo because Trump can't make a meaningful campaign that actualy attacks Biden from the left. The left can't really make an anti-NATO stance that doesn't boil down to real communism(good for movement building but you'll never win at electorialism lol) and anything from the right is just poisoning the well.
But the main point is yeah the left will always be blamed. I can empathize that Bernie was the millennial voters first experience with this but anyone that is old enough to be politically active for the past 8 years doesn't have an excuse to fall for this rhetoric anymore. If you're still giving any shits about what libs say or think and let that affect your own decisions then you are also part of the problem.
I legit was even planning to vote for Biden in spite of everything just cause of Afghanistan. Yes yes yes I know all of the asterisks and caveats you can give and just take it as how low my standards are.
This shit though...no...not in good conscience. I'll vote but I'm writing someone in. Anyone. I wouldn't endorse Joe Biden, let alone vote for him.
Doesn't apply to me because I'm "not a real leftist" lol. We're real leftists when it comes time to blame the left for shit but we're "not real leftists" when it comes time to convince everyone to support establishment Democrats.
Also, its literally an entire calendar year until the election. Trump was at 2% right now in 2015. Polls don't really mean shit rn and I would never underestimate an incumbent.
