I am really wondering if comments will start being unsafe with a lessened expectation of free speech continuing and revenge being the new normal. Im going to start a new account thats not linked to my email address. I’d suggest everyone else do the same.

Sure, Bud.

We are all a bit stunned, but we have 4 years to think about what happened and why. Lets not just jump to an easy conclusion on hour 1 day 1.

Stein voters werent a deciding factor in any swing states. So maybe they contributed, but theres more to it than that.

I’m saying as a subordinate in the Whitehouse she cannot largely deviate from the official position

She absolutely can. VP is an elected position, whats he going to do, fire her? cut her out of decisions? Decisions already literally werent her job. And he could read a poll the same as the rest of us. He should have understood that she needed to play to win. You’re confusing loyalty with her inability to grab the ring and lead.

Today we’re all clowns.

She was doing better than the old white guy she replaced though

Was she really though? She couldnt identify a single thing she’d do differently than Biden, who has a truly remarkable and historic level of low approval.

The holocaust branded with trump’s name

Bullshit, Harris Biden and the DNC are 100% oboard with it too. Its a little late for lies isnt it?

She didnt “have to” align with Biden as much as she did. That was a clear mistake and a missed opportunity. She also didnt have to support the far right wing israeli genocide. She didnt have to spend the entire last month of her ground game trying to appeal to disaffected repiblicans, losing dem base support every single day in the process. She didnt have to do so poorly on the economy issue either.

Lets face it, she was a flawed candidate. She’s a political noob who by her past performance appears hesitant to take policy positions.

Any cortortion you have to in order to not ask the leadership any questions whatsoever, or question their motivations or strategy even a little bit. You’ll go far in corporate life.

Panelist on pbs live election coverage was saying Harris ran a flawless campaign. They just dont get it.

You have no way of knowing that because anti-genocide voters basically didn’t show up.

how do you know what they did?

Nate Silver said a few days ago that the pollsters were making the race look closer than it actually was

there are communes you can work at in venezuela.

The DNC needs to be cleaned out. Every last person in leadership there needs to be fired and blacklisted.

Its a historic win for accelerationists I guess. Viva la revolution.

Sometimes I wonder if the centrists are crypto-accelerationists, because they always run to the center for nonexistent votes like clockwork, and predictably always lose.

I think the dnc feared a desantis candidate more than they did a trump.

Only a small handfull of countries in the world dont at least claim to be democratic. Heres a map. https://www.reddit.com/r/Maps/comments/1b0md42/countries_that_dont_claim_to_be_democratic/?chainedPosts=t3_1cfr8lx

Some thing that also might have played into this “brokenness” you speak of:

• The dems saying the economy is fine – or great even–when the public feels its not made the dems look out of touch.
• The DNC supporting a far right wing war and counting on the base to get 100% behind them.
• The dem candidate running to the right to look for republican votes in their ground game and losing a steady amount of votes from their base every day for a month without a strategy change.
• The dem candidate failing to renounce or suggest they’d depart from policies that poll extremely unpopularly.

Back when I was younger “slamming” meant something. But lately its meant a hot stone massage and a bj behind the curtain.

agreed, Dem centrists havent even reached the concerned letter writing stage over a genocide. Thet are pretty far from any revolution.
