If we were large enough to sink the election, why didn't the DNC cater to our needs? Or even liberal needs? We said defund the police, not elect a cop. Or maybe if the DNC let Bernie run in 2016 as elected, Trump would never has been President. Stop blaming us for your problems.

Yall should remember that you’re just MAGA but less organized. You take the rage bait and ratfuck the rest of the sane population because you’re impatient little brats. Us lifers have been fighting tooth and nail for marginal gains for decades and you keep throwing them away because your fee-fees.

mephistolist.bsky.social•16 days ago

Lifer? When was the last time you helped the homeless in person? Or when was the last time you scared the police at a protest? Something tells me your equivalent of 'lifer' is putting a BLM or rainbow flag on your car and calling it done. Get over yourself and...

Same every election. Fuck off you don’t matter! Fuck you you cost us the election!

tsrhodes.bsky.social•17 days ago

They should pick one and stick with it. It gives whiplash they way they switch back and forth every cycle

eyilanke.bsky.social•17 days ago

They won’t, it’s easier to make boogeymen of leftists than to answer difficult questions of why we are where we are.

tsrhodes.bsky.social•17 days ago

There's real stuff to be done to protect people but these losers just want to sit around soiling themselves over Schroediger's leftist, simultaneously too insignificant to merit talking to and powerful enough to sink elections.

me not voting sunk her campaign but those 10s of millions that voted for trump? "well they already said they were gonna do that so thats expected"

commiebasterd.bsky.social•16 days ago

💯

thedeathcarp.bsky.social•17 days ago

Shame they didn’t vote for her though as many publicly and repeatedly announced

eyilanke.bsky.social•17 days ago

I’m afraid I don’t understand what you’re talking about, given my post.

vjy1.bsky.social•17 days ago

All about you isn’t it?

eyilanke.bsky.social•17 days ago

Well yes, it’s my thread.

The gaslighting has been so strong. We all wanted Israel to stop. But the reality on November 6, 2024 was that one candidate was our mortal enemy on every single issue we care about, including the one we are holding against his opponent. Netanyahu stayed in power because Trump moved the embassy.

eyilanke.bsky.social•16 days ago

“We all wanted Israel to stop”… obviously not. Biden was shipping bombs out in violation of Leahy until the very last moments of his presidency and there was a barely a whimper of protest.

mikepittsburgh.bsky.social•16 days ago

Good thing I didn't vote for Joe Biden.

eyilanke.bsky.social•16 days ago

Okay.

mocutobi.bsky.social•17 days ago

I think it’s simpler than that. The right was able to use wedge issues to deflate left-of-center turnout, even while openly being substantially worse on those wedge issues. Whereas we could’ve pushed Harris from the left on Gaza, now our best option is Gaza becoming a US colony. Y’all got played

erinthebrave.bsky.social•16 days ago

Oh, yeah, just like you we're going to push biden to the left? 😂

mocutobi.bsky.social•16 days ago

Biden *was* pushed to the left, specifically on climate and union stuff. Harris likes Netanyahu less than Biden does, there was a pretty clear line of sight there

erinthebrave.bsky.social•16 days ago

Omg you're not making the argument you think you are here 🤦‍♀️

mocutobi.bsky.social•16 days ago

When dull people have nothing of substance to say, they resort to condescension. Make a point or keep it pushing

erinthebrave.bsky.social•16 days ago

Take your own advice 😂

mikibosanac.bsky.social•16 days ago

Only if you call progressives and center left. I haven't seen Biden pushed for the greater good of God into establishing dictatorship of the proletariat. The only thing distantly resembling the left in US is Bernie Sanders, a run of the mill meek social democrat.

trappiste.bsky.social•16 days ago

They can’t cope. They all know what they did and they’re all over social media trying to absolve themselves.

eyilanke.bsky.social•17 days ago

This would be believable if they hadn’t spent 15 months happily, joyously, murdering people without consequence. “Push Harris from the left” and you couldn’t even get them to not send Ritchie Torres to Dearborn. The only people who deflated dem turnout was the dems.

eyilanke.bsky.social•17 days ago

“Our best option”. Please.

mocutobi.bsky.social•17 days ago

Yeah the simplest and truest explanation is the fascists outplayed the left-of-center. And yeah Trump hasn’t floated any ideas for Gaza other than “permanently relocate the Palestinians” so our options are IDF colony or US one.

eyilanke.bsky.social•17 days ago

If by left of center you mean the DNC, we agree. It was always a colony, the difference now is in whether it is directly managed by the vassal state or the imperialist one. You’re implying a practical difference between a genocidaire and an ethnic cleanser. I disagree.

mocutobi.bsky.social•17 days ago

By left of center i mean left of center. So everything from liberals to marxists and anarchists. fascists outplayed them just as they did in the run up to WW2. history rhymes. And no I don’t think if Harris, who openly supported a two state solution, had won, things would’ve been the same

And leftists massive liberal crime is refusing to co-sign genocide, and wanting healthcare, housing, food, and education for everyone.

Totally understand why liberals are punching leftists instead of the oligarchs and large corps.

eyilanke.bsky.social•17 days ago

And the people who voted for 45/7 in the first place.

duchess-van-hoof.bsky.social•16 days ago

The enemy is simultaneously strong & weak. Strong to be an ever-present threat to rally against, weak enough to be mocked & scorned.

Where have I heard that before...

duchess-van-hoof.bsky.social•16 days ago

Do not forget us queers. It is somehow also our fault, if only we did not exist, surely they would have won then.
