This shit is so fucking stupid....
People ask why Kamala is so far right on so many issues compared to the Dem voter base...
And rather than say "yeah, I can't provide a valid reason she keeps going to the right", we keep getting these posts about how it doesn't matter?
Imagine if Kamala's line was just to the right of yours, whatever you care most about, she's just going to agree with trump on.
And when you go around, asking why you aren't important enough to be on Kamala's side of the line, everyone told you to stop being a baby and be happy with what you get, even tho what you want isn't included in her platform
Like, we don't gain votes by supporting a genocide.
We don't gain votes from a border wall and Trump's other border policies Kamala adopted.
Shit. Just being pro-fracking is going to lose us PA, and trump can't win the election without PA.
That one fucking issue that not a single person can explain why she holds. That's all it would take to prevent trump.
But instead of using your time productively to try and get Kamala to change while there's still time...
You want to shit on the people the party left behind?
Like this doesn't even seem like trying to bully them into voting anymore, you're punching down on these people constantly and gleefully....
You're acting exactly like a fucking trump supporter.
TLDR:
The people trying to pull Kamala left are the ones helping Kamala
You're trying to do the same thing Hillary supporters tried to do in 2016....
Do you honestly not remember how that worked out?
Or is this all intentional?
Same.
I’ll just sit out. You can’t reason with extremists.
Username checks out
Sorry but he's wrong. History shows every time the Dems go left, they lose. The only times the Dems win is when they go center to find voters.
(Ib4 Obama, he saw Gore lose on a progressive ticket. So he learned to stay broad and ran on "hope". His thanks for the ACA was to lose control of the house of reps for years 3-8 and couldn't do anything else.)
Take this fracking example of his.
Did the environmentalists show up for Gore? No they did not.
Did the environmentalists show up for Clinton who said she'd have a map room to fight climate change? No they did not.
Were the environmentalists going to show up for Biden after he passed green energy and ev policies? Polls said no they were not going to show up.
Harris saying she'd ban fracking is an instant loss. She and everyone advising her knows this.
You mean they actually had to get up off their arses to support what they preached?
That was too much effort for them man. Easier to bitch about a subject while sitting on the couch and complaining no one is doing anything, and when their preferred candidate loses, they have bragging rights that they are not listened to.
