We were hoping the democrats would realize their mistake and alter their platform
After losing. So after Trump wins and permanently fucks up our country?
Smart.
Personally I hoped that the threat would be enough. I hoped if we were all really loud about it the Democratic party would go, "hey I think we might lose this one if we don't stop murdering thousands of people". I hoped they would choose winning the election and at least delaying fascism over genocide. They didn't and it lost them the election. Now we have the beginnings of fascism AND a genocide. Fantastic. Maybe losing the election will motivate them to do better in the next one, if we have one.
Honestly, I'm mostly just shocked they didn't even try. It's insane to me that they didn't even bother lying. They were just that dedicated to genocide. It sucks that Trump made it in to office so soon, it really does but the Democratic party had the opportunity to prevent it and chose not to. I consider them and their donors far more responsible than anyone in this comment section or in any of our actual lives. They have us in such a twist that we are scrapping with eachother over their decisions.
Some people here on Lemmy are also accelerationists who actually want things up get much worse before they get better. Even dumber.
Absolutely. Yet they hide behind bullshit excuses about how they couldn’t support Harris when they KNEW having Trump win would be terrible for America, and therefore great for their own personal goals.
Fuck those disingenuous trolls.
