Voting blue didn't stop shit

Dirt Owl with one of those doctors' reflex hammers, meticulously tapping every possible lemmy lib struggle session topic and standing back to watch.

I'm here for it

You forgot the restoration of child labour.

Also found out you aren't allowed to strike if you work for railroads

Biden has been demonstrably, measurably worse on covid than Trump. If I had to vote for one of them today, and I was going to do it based solely on “who is going to get less people killed?” I would vote for Trump, and that’s fucking horrifying.

The bar was buried 6 feet underground along with hundreds of thousands of people dead from covid, and Biden still didn’t clear it.

Depressing how this comes back here every few years like the ongoing history of american politics doesnt spell that out. It's like people spent 7 years forgetting everything we talked about last time

well, it's either the guy who's terrible or the guy who will adopt the terribls guy's policies in 7 years

no more half measures walter

I mean, they are blue conservatives. American politics are horribly skewed to the right, so your options are between conservative-lites and literally Nazis lol y'all are fucked.

The democrats are as bad as the republicans, they just use different methods

based and bourgeois-democracy-is-not-democracy pilled

Death to America

The Democratic Party just represents another faction of the bourgeoisie. They only “support” different social issues to opportunistically appeal to a different voting blocs, but they have little or no intention to truly do anything. The only constituency they serve are just a different group of capitalists. Once you understand this, that all bourgeois politicians don’t represent you at all, US politics and policy decision making becomes crystal clear.

That's the problem. We don't have a liberal party and a conservative party anymore. We have a conservative party and a regressive party

I’m not keen on defending democrats, but there would absolutely be a federal abortion ban right now if Trump had been re-elected.

Our government is in extremely bad shape, one federal election isn’t going to fix it.

Doing an insanely small amount better than the other slave master is not a good thing. "They stabbed me five times, but the other guy would've stabbed me seven!".

Sure, please vote for five-times-stabber instead of ol' seven-timeser, but by gods neither are worth defending in any sense.

Trump never blew up NordStream and killed thousands of poor Europeans with that heinous act.

The inflation reduction act invested heavily into renewables and green tech. There is always more that could be done, but you really think Trump would've passed something like that?

Its less cruel to vote Blue, so you shuld still do it. Its whats called harm reduction.
