"Those dang ol' chromo's ruining the nondiversity of good old fashioned black and white. Why, back in my day, the grayscale was seen as a threat, and dammit when we have our way they're getting erased too!" - A chromophobe who votes against that they cannot appreciate, see, or understand.
has a great track record, including in the election that literally just happened where the candidate openly pivoted to the center right and immediately all of their numbers got worse then they lost
absolutely wild that mere days after their strategy fell flat on its fucking face in full view of everyone they're like "we need to get serious about this continuously failing strategy that just failed again disastrously." cynical fantasists.
trump getting reelected is a disaster so bad that few people seem to even grasp its implications, but sure! let’s get serious. In reality, democrats lost by a tiny margin.
But maybe, shitting on democrats nonstop while NEVER focusing on or criticizing trump for being 1000x worse was a bad strategy
once my leftist friends on Instagram started repeating word-for-word Russian propaganda about FEMA abandoning western NC after the hurricane (while FEMA was actually pulling out all the stops and working around the clock), I had a feeling we might be cooked as a country
Feels like maybe this would be better addressed to your Instagram friends, or someone talking about punishing Biden, not to people talking about how becoming more right wing and transphobic is bad.
Perhaps if Democrats didn't abandon their constituencies at the drop of a hat to move yet further to the right in search of these embarrassed Republican votes, their constituencies wouldn't be so quick to criticize them.
seems like we're never gonna find out. seems a lot like Demorats would rather willingly give up the country to a fascist right wing oligarchy that represents almost no one, many of them participating in that directly, than pursue or even allow substantial reform from the left
They lost by whatever margin, ok, AND ALSO, Kamala Harris pivoted openly to the center-right, started campaigning with moderate Republicans, all her numbers got worse, then she lost
If pointing out that a failing political strategy that also happens to be self-serving to America's wealthy elite is frequently failing--and they regularly resort to throwing marginalized ppl & causes under the bus to pursue it--is "picking on Democrats" its no wonder they fail so catastrophically
Yeah.
I do realize we need a different communication strategy, but I refuse to compromise my own values to do it.
I don’t know how to say “I told you so” for the next 2 years without annoying everyone…🤷🏻♀️
Look, it's very, critically important that we find excuses to explain it. If not, we might have to face the fact that do nothing center right politicians with no messages for or about the poor in this country will consistently result in turnout and enthusiasm failures. What will the donors think?
who are they? i can tell u put u probably won’t like it. they are blackrock and vanguard operatives who are paid handsomely to playact as the blue team
I'm European, this is about useless political parties that only give fair weather support to minorities and then shift right when losing elections in general.
Such disregard for the humanity of others must be itself a mental illness. I am well, I know that because I am curious and compassionate. Whatever is wrong with people's brains, it's not mine. Just because they can't understand it doesn't mean it's wrong.
Oh okay I'm sorry for straying from the subject, shaming me for trying to contribute to conversations is something a lot of NT people do so I'm used to it it's okay.
It's not even good strategy. Being Green is a very polarizing issue, most people are either fully accepting of green people, or want them eradicated, without much middle ground, so distancing oneself when the other side is aiming for eradication *already* puts you in a losing position.
By supporting green people fully, you're energizing the base. Good strategy, in this case, is to control the conversation and forcibly reframe the issue away from arenas where the other side can score points with witless morons (such as "green people in sports" even though it's total nonsense).
Not every argument needs to be won, if swing voters are too stupid to understand the argument in the first place. Sometimes, just preventing the other side from dragging you into the argument to begin with is all the victory you need.

I will be here on this nice beach saying "We told you so" every day as I watch DC become St Petersburg / Minsk

"We just lost! Quick, prove that there's no real difference between us and our opponents! That'll scoop up votes from our opponents, probably maybe!"
LEFT HAND USE NOW MANDATORY [but only for rainbow people]
Not what the post is about
The post is a joke about whether it's even possible for any of the characters I write to not be autistic.
Like this entire discourse is fake.
