    Dems may have dropped the ball, but it’s still the voters fault for not voting. Anyone trying to blame the party for the choices of the people is just trying to deflect guilt for their shitty choices.

    We all knew this would happen, and some of us even said as much only to be told it was the Dems responsibility to make you want to vote, and not your duty to vote in the best interests of the country. 88 million people thought this was ok instead of making time to vote for someone they didn’t like. They are still to blame, because they made the choice to not participate and make their voices heard.

    Buckle up buttercup, you got at least 4 years of us telling you that you should have fucking voted, and we told you so.

      I voted for Harris. In two years, Democrats will be running in congressional elections with the same electorate. You can blame them then too. It’s clear that you would much rather have fascism win every election than move one Planck length to the left.

        LOL, because I knew that Trump would be worse than Harris means I’m a fascist? Shit like this is why no one takes you seriously.

          You would prefer a Democratic Party that continues its slow slide toward fascism, since you can remain comfortable. But given a choice between moving to the left and outright fascism, it’s clear that you prefer the latter.

            Oh wow, you’re getting blocked because you’re freaking mental.

            I’d prefer a party in power that I can actually try to pressure, not a fascist dictator, and I blame the people who chose not to vote that led us here. The fact that you’re incapable of grasping a simple fact would make me question your good faith, except

            But given a choice between moving to the left and outright fascism, it’s clear that you prefer the latter.

            I’m sure you’re not. Bye.

              The US has no such party, and centrists interpret all pressure as support for republicans because they don’t want to move left.
