and republicans exist the dnc can put a boogeyman every election so we will have to vote for these corrupt scammers. our political system is so broken that we either get lobbyists controlled genocidal hacks or a dumb racist genocider.
its like asking to eat either dogpoop or vomited dogpoop
Two sides of the same coin am I right!? Get the fuck out of here with that bullshit.
I grew up listening to Rush Limbaugh and other hate radio. There is no liberal comparison.
They regularly called for the death of liberals amongst other horrible shit. The toxicity comparison is ridiculous when the other side is liberals saying they wish conservative voters were not misled.
I get you don't like the government. I don't either, but this is not a god damned game of good cop bad cop.
they are the same vocal minority as those on dnc side who have said if trumps wins then they want all muslims who didn’t vote for harris to be deported to gaza.
they two parties may not be the same but they are both bad and corrupt enough that we need to start voting them out. after 2016 primaries i have no confidence in dnc to not rig the primaries against an actual liberal candidate again.
there are easy things harris can still do to improve her chances but she is not even moral enough to disapprove genocide, progressive enough to disapprove fracking. she has failed upwards in the corrupt dnc as a token minority whose career has been of a smug prosecutor who has only looked down on minorities.
but hey why not just run a propaganda campaign against jill stein who has been pro-climate since 1998.
Trump fomented anti-muslim sentiment and literally passed a travel ban against Muslim countries.
The RNC completely rolled over for Trump in ways far worse than the DNC snubbing Berny.
Harris is not pro-genocide no matter how many times you say it. You make it out like decades of gloves on diplomacy with Israel is suddenly her fault.
Trump is open to letting Israel do whatever it wants and while in office stroked tensions between Israel and Palestine several times.
To blow off the fact that she would be the first woman president and to trivialize her to a token representative speaks a lot about your mindset.
If Jill Stein endorses Harris knowing she is the only remotely pro-climate candidate that could win then perhaps she isn't the piece of shit everyone says she is. I won't hold my breath waiting.
One side is climate change denialists and the other isn't. Two sides of the same coin right?
Dude you're arguing with a horse
What an unwarranted insult to the noble equine!
This Shadowfax is a cheap, flawed imitation. A dollar store replica. A sad, sad doppelganger.
Temu Shadowfax.
Shadowfaux.
let me detail out the “tokens” here. do know that i am of indian origin as well.
and then there is her advocating for border wall and getting tough on immigration so basically adopting trump policy from 2016.
so yes she is a token candidate from establishment.
i am not even going to address other points as i am not voting or supporting gop. if a vp and presidential nominee don’t not even have power of condemning mass killing of children with our money then what’s the point of voting for them. choosing lesser evils never works it only brings more evil as we saw in 2020.
then there are stunts like this which confirms to me that she is just a lobbyists placeholder.
Are you voting for the only other viable candidate?
No?
Then you're supporting the GOP.
You're what's called a 'single issue ~~cunt~~ voter' and frankly it's stupid
Because politicians can’t just put somone in jail. The judiciary is an independent branch.
Also you seem to be a 29 minute old account who has like 15 comments on a single issue and nothing else. Which is always sketchy.
The entite purpose of your account seems to be “Harris bad”
You're talking to antiyanks, a troll that has been banned on over 30 accounts on this community. Don't waste your time with anyone with "yanks" in their user, as it's just them.
Yeah that was them
Remember when abortion was legal?
this excuse again ? talk to some women in real life ? they don’t want this cause insulted by even comparing it to butchering of all the women and children by our money ? what choice they had on getting aborted by idf ?
did she got a choice ?
or them https://truthout.org/articles/idf-shot-at-pregnant-civilian-outside-gaza-hospital-under-siege-staffer-says/ ?

Still is federally
That's news to a lot of women's corpses in Alabama, Georgia, and Texas
Sounds like a alabama, Georgia, texas issue. Easily handled by the people in those states. Just like it has been in every other state. Harris isnt even the solution for abortion nationally, she even admitted this; she wouldn't do anything differently than biden. Congressional dems are.
Learn to properly focus your energy.
Except, I'm reasonably happy with what Biden's done in his term. Especially when one considers what a second Trump term would be.
agreed, its too bad harris is fumbling the ball on such minor issues too, like labor rights and genocide. 🤷 no one to blame but herself.
"why don't those people just immediately and magically fix their problems?" -this guy
I swear, some people should not be allowed to reproduce. Understand nothing, but the first to speak up and argue.
lol, says the person ignoring the literal mountains of evidence saying an abortion ballot measure will pass literally in any state. it literally passed in kansas. Now if you want such a bill elect congress critters that will pass it. harris is immaterial until that happens. for some reason I doubt trump would veto such a bill; not because he said it but because he doesn't generally care about shit unless it impacts him personally. But given congress has avoided passing such a bill in the past color me doubtful it will now. what else will they run on if not abortion and not trump? looks at harris' policies
frankly if abortion is your defining reason to vote for harris well shrug that makes you a single issue voter and I thought they were bad? but maybe I'm fairly indifferent since my state already has enshrined abortions as law and I can't solve all the worlds issues. especially the ones that are easily resolved at the ballot box.
so again, trump is an abomination, and learn to focus your efforts. harris isn't some magic solution to americas problems. I'll be over here getting ranked choice in my state.
I'm sorry, let me just elect representatives in a different state, brb.
If it was so simple, explain why it has taken so many state governments so long to do something about it? It's almost like it's way more complicated than you make it out to be. My state has abortion on the ballot this time around - I don't expect it to pass. In addition, the state wants to make my harder for citizens to get further measures on the ballot. It's like lots of us are working against the awful bodies of government. Imagine that. Land of the free, mmmmhm.
Also lmfao, yes, mmhm, absolutely, I'm a single-issue voter. Honey, I'm gay as fuck, the day a baby pops out of my partners asshole because I knocked them up, the day I'm the fuck outta here. It's almost like people with a broad worldview can have multiple issues they care about or something, and - stay with me here - they don't need to be a member of an affected class to want to help them improve their lives and well-being. Crazy, right?
The loudest people don't have a damn clue what the hell they are arguing about, they just want to hear themselves speaking louder than others. "I got mine, suckers, ez pz" energy is strong with this one. It's okay though, they are getting ranked-choice... aaaaaaaaany day now... (it's okay, it's ez pz)
You sound like someone who would have questioned the need for ending segregation because it "Sounds like a [Spanish Word For Black] problem to me!"
mmmmmm; probably would have been shot in the war fighting against it more honestly. let me know when harris can single handedly pass abortion rights on her own that the discussion can go somewhere. as I said the fastest route to protecting access is via state legislatures. hence why what 8 states have it on the ballot this year? would I prefer it federally? sure. sadly for you all my reps already support such a position and I doubt trump would block it if the bill passed. but since such a bill won't pass congress shrug.
Its not a compelling reason by itself to vote for harris; since you know... she can't single handedly make it happen.
She can appoint Supreme Court Justices that can re-instate Roe V. Wade
Voting for Harris means voting for a blue congress assuming you voted down ballot
https://www.propublica.org/article/nevaeh-crain-death-texas-abortion-ban-emtala - This woman was murdered because of people with your kind of "Not my problem attitude"
You say you'd have been shot fighting against segregation, but you can only say this with hindsight having lived in a world where you were already told it was wrong. Judging by your current actions, if segregation was already the status quo you'd just say that black people should solve their own problems despite the fact that attempts for "Colored-Only Areas" as they were called back then to create a "Black Wallstreet" were met with white police officers burning down "Black Wallstreet"
Jesus havent seen someone be so wrong all month and ive been dealing with genocidal asses all year.
My reps already support the things you're asking for. Harris is literally the greater evil in my state because trump isnt even on the radar. Ive done all i can for you. 🤷. You at least still currently have a vote. Pray Harris' horrible campaigning hasnt put that at risk.
You dont like what im telling you because its hard. But if you want the things you claim to want you have to put the effort in.
You dont get to rely on me. not because I don't want those things for you and others, but because im not in your area to help you carry the burden and short of an armed insurgency for you my state is maxed out on the support it can offer, though we do export a lot of blue babies to other states...
I don't think it is?
No its neutral federally which is to say it is neither legal or illegal.
This is how unaware and/or uneducated some people are. It's been over two years since federal protection was removed.
And people like this are voting. Given licenses to drive. Reproducing. Totally oblivious.
Checks watch: phew, only 4 days left before the "gEnOcIdErS" leave forever.
RemindMe! 4 days "Has Lemmy stopped talking about the genocide?"
Make another named "gramar"
Think you need to lay off the crack.
Pff, eleven year olds doing crack nowadays.. what is the world turning into.
Block button: a thing that exists.
Goodbye.
Blocking them won't work. They'll be back on a new account within the day as soon as this one gets banned. They're approaching 35 accounts now.
