MODERATORS
The democrats didn't do anything wrong! Who could have known doing nothing to help your constituents and also facilitating genocide is unpopular?
If only there was some historical precedent to tell us whether trying to be the "moderate, reasonable, competent republicans" will get republicans to vote for you or if it just lowers turnout.
Did not voting Democrat work?
Pretty much everyone you are talking to voted Democrat. You know who didn't? People whose families were murdered by US munitions.
You know who also didn't? The mythical anti-trump Republican voters who the Biden/Kamala campaign exclusively tried to win over.
Maybe instead of getting mad at people calling out the Democrats losing strategy you should get mad at Republicans who are destroying everything and the feckless Democrats who learned nothing from this last election.
Upvoted for feckless. I love that word in general, and it's perfect attached to Democrats.
It’s a word with no proper opposite.
Have you ever heard anyone use the word “feckfull”?
Well, you just did. This being a conversation in English, feckfull is now cromulent.
To my semi-surprise, 'feck' is a word.
Exhibit A. Congratulations!
You can be critical of the democratic party and still have voted for them. You can think they have their heads so far up their ass that they are walking around inside out, and still have voted for them.
Some of us hate the Democratic party in it's current state and want nothing more than to over turn it and "drain the swamp" but realize they are unfortunately the only safe option. That doesn't mean they don't need to change.
Even if you didn't vote Democrat, you have every right to rip their proverbial heads off and shit down their proverbial necks.
They are the opposition party... and they're doing nothing.
Yes, anyone who has a problem with the Dems is automatically the bad guy. Democrats are perfect and never deserve criticism even from people who voted for them every damn year
Who said that? I said the people and non protest voters are hanging themselves. Nice strawman!
The only way the democrats could have won is if they changed direction. Nothing I did could have made Harris promising to build the wall popular.
