Should the DNC have put forward a candidate that was fairly selected with grass roots support among the wider voting population?

No, it's the voters who are at fault.

do you think there was enough time?

use your fucking brain.

Americans that purposely withheld votes cause this to happen. point. fucking. blank.

when it actually mattered 20 million Americans abandoned their posts to protect democracy. full stop.

when a house is on fire, do you save the stuff or the people first?

Nevermind, you just want to blame the fire dept from not showing up faster.

do you think there was enough time?

Yes. Other countries manage just fine.

Americans that purposely withheld votes cause this to happen. point. fucking. blank.

Maybe they didn't purposely withhold votes. Maybe they were just not enthusiastic enough about the DNC candidate.

20 million Americans abandoned their posts to protect democracy

This is not democracy. It's a corporatocracy that's one candidate away from dictatorship.

when a house is on fire, do you save the stuff or the people first

The house is on fire because the two greedy landlords have refused to do basic maintenance and listen to the concerns of their tenants.

You just don't get it. You still want to argue about why the house is on fire, instead of trying to save the people in the house.

That's the problem with ideological extremists. You just can't admit that your idea sucks.

I'll admit that the Democrats suck.

Can you admit that your socialist goals were unachievable in the previous political environment?

Wait a second. 🤔 Was that your goal all along?

No, if that was the case, you would be no better than the Nazis.

right?

If the house wasn't on fire we wouldn't need to save the people. Your strategy will never save the people in the house. Neither landlord cares about the people, only the companies providing services.

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

again, you're trying argue about if or how the house is on fire.

it was on fire!

now it's burned the-fuck down. People, things, everything has burned.

it's too late.

And the fault is the landlords in charge of the house. Not the people living in it.

The people wanted a fire extinguisher

One landlord was offering a wet blanket.

The other was offering petrol.
