    Because like it or not stopping aid for Israel would have pushed all Israel supporters to Trump. Sadly apparently most Palestine supporters are stupid enough to not see that is 1000x worse for them

      I don’t think this is a constructive way of looking at the situation. After all, being quiet about Netanyahu’s abuses wasn’t a winning strategy either. Besides, being scared of Israeli lobbying automatically makes you a bad leader.

      Regular people don’t live reading obscure threads on Lemmy so I’m 100% sure that the effects of the comments posted by tankies here are negligible.

      My point is that you can’t lose against the worst human being twice and keep blaming the electorate. If they want to lead, the dems have to stand for something instead of complaining about turnout or in general blaming anyone else but themselves. It was THEIR job to get out the vote.

      Trump is a monumental POS but the dems prefer to cater to the people who voted for him instead of the people who want legitimate pro-working-class policies.

        You can blame dems for a lot but to decide not to vote for them because of Gaza is the dumbest possible take

          But yes its the voters who are wrong… Who was it that said ‘only winning matters’? Oh right pelosi… Smart. Evil. Lady.

              That you’ve still learned nothing from this experience. The thing we were telling you for the last month.

              Harris’ needed to give people a reason to vote for her. In Wisconsin that was stopping the genocide. In Pennsylvania thats fucking reducing the cost of living, inproving wages, etc.

              If we’re lucky enough to get out of this with our country in tact next time stfu up about lesser evil and demand your candidate have policies that benefit people.

              In short dont be like ‘sit down im speaking’ harris, the lesser evil. And instead be more like ‘yes sir stand up trll me what you need!’

                    You literally didnt tell me anything. I am not Harris, in her campaign, democrat, or american. But people who donr vote for the candidate most likely to tone down the genocide in favour of the person who wants to enhance it are responsible for the worsening of that genocide. No one who did not vote for Harris can claim to be pro Palestine again. With Trump Palestinians wont exist much longer and it is partly the fault of the idiots not voting or voting for Stein.

            Yes, the voters are wrong? You think you’re making some amazing point, but really you just look stupid.

              Oh prole, divest yourself from politics its not healthy for you. You lack the ability to reason cause and effect. Someone in this thread has the correct take on the democratic party and their loss and its not you. Find the post about the democrats not being self reflective and how gaza is just a proxy for the root problem with democrats. They’re obsession with data, and focus groups. Its not the voters who are wrong when you dont inspire them to show up.

                  Sage advice. Perhaps take that mentally to all the people you’ve decided to disparage today and pver the last year in your fanatic quest to elect a terrible candidate who wasnt going to help them and they knew it.

                    Man, whatever you have to tell yourself to get to sleep at night.

                    Assuming that you actually give a shit about these people. Which I don’t believe that you do.

        If the electorate votes for the worst human being twice they definitely deserve a freaking hulking heap of blame.

          They didnt show up fam. We warned you. We told you harris wasnt doing enough. But you insisted that they were at fault if they didnt vote. Well guess what. They didnt vote. And now you’re stuck with the consequences. Thanks i guess.
