Oh wow now they're Trump supporters and Communists? LMAO

This is getting ridiculous.

You're absolutely right, it IS ridiculous how many supposedly left-leaning people are willing and even eager to see a Trump presidency to 'get one over on the shitlibs'.

The convention could always select a different democrat. Or it could have if the democrats hadn't purposely put it after the ballot deadline in many states so Biden would already be on the ballot, before the convention that supposedly nominates him.

It's just not the either/or situation you're looking for. It's entirely possible to be so disgusted by the state of American politics that you just don't vote. Or you vote third party. Your memes are having a negative impact at this point. Nobody who was on the fence is going to say, "Oh gosh I don't want to be commie, I better vote Joe!"

Ah, yes, the good old shift from "NOT DEMOCRATIC ENOUGH" to "Fuck the voters, the DNC should nominate someone else!"

Your memes are having a negative impact at this point.

Then you should have no problem with them, since you're convinced that neither side is worth supporting.

[-] Maggoty@lemmy.world 15 points 5 months ago

There is a side that could be worth supporting. But you're making very hard to do so. Biden could win the election today by cutting off military aid to Israel. Instead he has goons out here threatening everyone. So far I'm not sure what I get for supporting him. You guys talk about plan 2025, but this kind of bullshit used to just be Republican stuff. So from where I'm sitting it looks like the DNC is giving up on Democracy too. It's certainly giving up on listening to it's voters.

God, I love how detached from the reality of the American electorate this constantly repeated point is.

Instead he has goons out here threatening everyone. So far I’m not sure what I get for supporting him.

Threatening... everyone... by telling them exactly what the opposition is promising to do?

God. What a horrible threat.

You guys talk about plan 2025, but this kind of bullshit used to just be Republican stuff.

Fucking what.

So from where I’m sitting it looks like the DNC is giving up on Democracy too.

... because it... isn't having a meeting in a smoke-filled room to remove the current candidate without any input from the electorate?

Or because it's running against a fascist who has pledged to be a day-one dictator?

That's a coherent paragraph. Each sentence is meant to support and provide context for the others. So taking it all out of context isn't helpful in decoding it's meaning.

"It's out of context, I didn't say the things I said"

They are not team blue so they are team bad. The rules of ~~football~~ politics are simple

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

They want Donald to win so that China gains ground. They claim to love leftist economies but are simping for countries that produce plenty of billionaires.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

Billionaires are just symptomatic of Socialism with Chinese Characteristics!
