If someone left chose not to vote because she wasn’t left enough, then that person wasn’t paying attention. The choice was her or this. Anything other than choosing her was choosing this.

Apparently “almost won” is a “win” for liberals, because examining precisely WHY she LOST without trying to blame everything and everyone else is what adults would do, and adulting us hard.
She didn't win a single swing state and lost millions of Democratic voters that turned out in 2020. It was a disastrous loss. You are not a serious person
By continuing to do the exact same thing, you accomplish what now?
She lost because of her choices.
You blame me for her choices.
You demonize your own base, for the choices of Capitalists.
Never said nor do I mean by doing the same thing.
Agree she made some head scratching choices both as vp and as the candidate. I blame anyone who sat it out or voted for facism or voted third party. That was and this is NOT the time. If a post from the president saying to buy the dip isn’t enough ?
You need to blame those who get elected and then abandon their oath of office.
Trump should have been executed or put behind bars following Jan6.
Instead, they chose to debate him like an equal, and hand him legitimacy.
You can complain about leftists not coming out all you want, it doesn't change the outcome. I voted for her, but a lot of leftists felt abandoned & stayed home. A lot of moderates felt her message was jumbled. You simply can't try to woo a nonexistent electorate (moderate Republicans) & hope to win
You can't woo the entire left either, because many factions within the left don't even consider the rest of the left as their allies, because they're not "left enough."
For the record, I'm a leftist, just not Kantian. I know others who decided to protest vote against the objectively better candidate. I'm just looking at what could be done differently, and what might've been done differently to avoid the mess we're in now. It's on everyone, not just one person.
Maybe, there's really no way to know. What I do know is that all the Palestine protestors focusing exclusively on Harris instead of Trump who had a worse position certainly didn't help the momentum.
Following Jan6, Biden had all the authority to have Trump executed for Treason.
Instead, he allowed Trump free reign.
Even chose to debate Trump when Trump wouldn't debate his own party.
Why?
That's the thing I'm angry about. All those fuckers should've been immediately tried for treason.
The problem is that he's an old neolib who cares more about his pride and "being the better man" and following the standard even against those who shit on said standards.
Capitalists are on both sides, and none of them appear to understand it, or refuse to understand.
They've been convinced we are a Capitalist nation and that we must accept this.
It's not mentioned anywhere in the Constitution.
"Capitalism" doesn't appear in print before 1854. Just before Civil War.
Y’all can argue who is more right/left/capitalist/marxist/nationalist/taoist/agnostic all day long.
The much MUCH larger problem is that more than a third of this country still can’t be bothered to cast a ballot. That has been a consistent issue unrelated to any one campaign for over a century now.
The trick of slavery is convincing the slave they are better off being a slave.
You'll work for me because you want to.
It's really your only choice.
Was Kamala the kinder slave master?
Sure. Go with that.
Capitalism is Greed Worship is Mammon.
The math works.
I hoped she would win.
I live in a deeply red state.
You misunderstand many peoples point.
She to be the lesser Evil.
Defending her now is cultish.
She sold you out.
I also live in a deeply red state where my job is being directly impacted by the orange wave. I’m very angry at people who voted for him and people who opted out and essentially voted for him.
If a nonvote for X is a vote for Y, then by the same logic a non vote for Y is a vote for X. You can literally use your own logic to argue they voted for Harris
Republicans have been screaming the elections are rigged.
They rigged the elections.
Kamala folded like a dollar bill.
And why choose to debate Trump at all?
He should have been hanged following Jan6.
Democratic leadership fears their non-Capitalist base more than Trump.

Anyone voting third party and any third party candidates last time round should’ve realised the harm they were causing.
I’m all for reform and progress but not until skidmark is poisoning the ground they dump him in.
But my point is by creating the illusion that there was somehow another viable option has caused severe damage.
With what ?
3 months of a campaign ?
Pretty fucken viable if you ask me.
Add in sissy space x dropping a lazy quarter billion in the last month…
Toddler.

We are picking at 'old wounds' now, essentially.
Though we ["the masses"] are still understanding exactly what happened.

Then when they lose, they can blame their base, for the betrayal they did.
