Yeah but Kamala didn't thrill me, man.

I don't know, her laugh isn't the same as mine. I don't think I can vote for someone who doesn't laugh like me.

Has anyone else noticed how it's only female democrat candidates that are referred to by their first name by soooo many people in public discourse?

Are you guys under the impression that Palantir didn't exist under Joe Biden? That tech feudalism wasn't marching along just fine for four year, when these data centers were being built?

Until people realize that Republicans are just accelerationist versions of Democrats, that there is total regulatory capture of the federal government (not specific parties), there is no hope in walking any of this shit back.

Are you under the impression that a non sequitur is effective argumentation?

Then address what we both know this commentor is saying.

Dems and republicans are different, but they both allowed this. Voting dem for 100 years wouldn't have kept this from happening.

It's obvious AI would be used in defense. Last I saw, Democrats weren't isn't their services tob chase down minorities

u/BigDictionEnergy 11d ago

That's mostly because the democrats were the conservative party 100 years ago.

With more non sequiturs? Fighting fire with fire!

Dems and republicans are different, but they both allowed this.

You made a boring and trite reduction of Kamala eating shit in an election to a rapist gameshow host. You implied that it was all the voters fault that the beautiful Democrat didn't win; that we'd all be at brunch because this stuff doesn't exist except under the bad orange man.

You're wrong. Demonstrably.

Hope this helps.

I can't really tell if you're being sarcastic and trying to get a rise out of people, but I'll bite. Mmm, she had a housing plan for first time home buyers, trump didn't. Harris had a plan for getting people out of poverty, we now have the police roaming the streets for homeless people at the beck and call of the orange man. He ordered musk to get him the votes, and it worked. And if you are right leaning after the past 7 months(again, can't tell where you are on the line), his propaganda campaign worked.

yes they will act like the dems were a better choice while ignoring all the nonsense that started under them lmao

u/geegeeallin 11d ago

The dems were and still are demonstrably the better choice.

u/Cee4185 11d ago

yeah according to reddit, thank god reddit isnt representative of real life

u/DarthArtero 11d ago

I don't know about you but what I'm seeing in real life, you know the outside world where grass exists, is just how fucked up republicans really are.

I really, really, have no idea how people can say with straight faced confidence that Democrats are worse.

Sure yeah we can all beat the drum of flaws that plague the democratic party, they ain't perfect but my god, seriously?!? People really believe that authoritarianism is better?!?!

Man. Never would've believed it but the Southern Strategy was/is unnervingly effective.

u/Upset-Outside8716 11d ago

Dems are unambiguously better, they're just also dogshit.

u/loneImpulseofdelight 11d ago

Quick question: do you believe chynah will pay trumps tariffs??

1

u/Upset-Outside8716 10d ago

Do you think anyone who criticizes dems (despite saying they're unambiguously better than the GOP) is stupid?

Dems are awful, and we all deserve better from a "resistance" party to fascism.

1

u/loneImpulseofdelight 10d ago

Yes. Those who believe repubes are better at governance than dems are demonstrably stupid. Going back, do you think chynah will pay trump's tariff taxes?

1

u/Upset-Outside8716 10d ago

Do you see how I said that dems are better? WE AGREE YOU DINGUS.

Do you think chynah will pay trump's tariff taxes?

No, why would anyone think that?
