I voted for harris. You don't care. The only thing you care about is that no one breathes a word against your only policy.
Thank you. It was a bitter choice. They gave you no opportunity to choose a successor but as I understand it, that was because the Democrats held the seat? That said, I think you should have been allowed to choose and it should not have been Harris, who was never popular.
That’s not true. The day Hamas made that strike I knew what was behind it. I was sad not just for Palestine, which I knew would be destroyed if this played out and Americans who would be fooled by it and possibly elect Trump through non participation.
That said, I don’t care what Americans think of me. Not when they’re doing what they are around the world and what they aren’t at home to prevent or stop it, what they elected and what they are standing for. It might be a badge tbh.
It’s. Not. Mine.
There is no requirement that an incumbent president must be the nominee. Centrist pro-genocide-and-nothing-else democrats sued to make sure no challenger to biden was on the ballot in all 50 states. Then biden stepped down and appointed harris. At no point were the voters asked. Anyone who voted uncommitted in the primaries was screamed at for being a traitor by people who demand affirmative support for genocide and nothing else.
People like you.
No, they are not like me. That said though, there’s no requirement to hold a primary, either, right?
I am like Mamdani. You want me to be a shitlib, but I’m not. I’ve wanted a progressive nominated for years and was as disappointed with Harris as I was with Clinton. I knew they’d put up no one else though.
What I understand, though, is that a) the only way that your current system, the way it is, can be fixed is by infiltration of one of the parties, like what has happened to the Republicans. That was ground up, and it needs to be the same through the Democrats so ranked choice et al can be introduced and b) not a single Democrat, even the worst, is up there with the Epstein Coalition
I would have opposed that court action.
I’m getting tired of this though, I’m telling excuse makers who have a bit of blood on their hands just simply to vote and they’re going fucking stupid over it as they do. Kid killers. I guess that’s why you're so pissed.
You're telling someone who voted the way you wanted despite hating the options presented that they're a kid killer.
Based on nationality, for you personally yeah.
If it pisses you off, have a drizz. I don’t care anymore what you or your countrymen think of me now and many foreigners feel the same way.
You all should have stopped this shit years ago. If you tried, shut the fuck up and don’t swing or you might get collateral because you’re all responsible for it.
You demand silence only from people who are upset at genocide.
You sound like some kid with a Che Guevara poster on their wall and sand in their vagina because they got schooled by the big bad foreigner.
Fuck you’re a whiny lot, like the president you elected
And you sound like a genocide supporter because that's the only thing you have ever been or ever will be.
For you sweetheart, yes
Anything to make you go away at this point
You finally admitted the only thing you are.
