Political Memes

the US system is broken, this is what happens when there is only two choices 🥲

Can we get the fuck over this pointless nonsense, consign her to history, and do something about what's happening now, please?

Brother she ain't running no more. What are you fucking talking about?

How many times do I have to say it? The party lines are drawn in such a way to distract you from the actual cancer of late stage capitalism. Yeah yeah, "vote blue no matter who". How about "educate your neighbors no matter who" to get some actual fucking change instead if this ridiculous in-fighting?

This is stupid people who didn't like Kamala because the was a genocide enabler weren't saying vote Trump wtf.

And anyway shit's over. This finger wagging told-ya-so bullshit is less than worthless. It's abundantly clear you can still lose to the worst person alive if people don't like you... So maybe force the Dems to run someone decent or make the Dems disappear. You're not gonna shame the electorate into the lesser of two evils crap, how have you not seen this yet? Regardless of how logical you think it is or how right you think you are. I think it's clear it's not working.

It's true.

Democrats are fucking stupid. The voters told you what they wanted, and it was affordability and no more WMD's for Israel, and Dems concluded it was too much to ask. Of course people didn't want to fucking vote for you.

who keeps upvoting this bullshit?

Again genocide isn't a small thing, Harris also was very questionable on trans issues and extremely pro imperialism and cop.

My handler said it was my turn to post "whatabout kamala" post today.

😡😡😡

Oh my god when will you people shut the fuck up about this

Please stop. This is disingenuous trash. No one concerned about Israel said vote for him.

You forgot the swastika and the pedobear under Trump.

Acting like Harris is an ally for queer people and isn't an imperialist is genuinely out of touch with reality. I get you want to blame people because the "worse" white supremacist was elected, but narratives like this will be used by the Democratic Party to continue the fascism if and when the Republicans lose power. Gavin Newsom isn't intentionally abandoning pro-queer performative politics for nothing.

Another insultingly stupid take of blaming voters for the problems caused by greedy people. THIS VIOLATES RULE 1 of the forum.

Ah, liberal wokescolding first thing in the morning

Yes, thank you for opening our eyes, none of us knew this, even though we all held our nose and voted for the woman who was suddenly thrust on us as it became apparent that Joe Biden couldn’t win, who herself was winning UNTIL she said we’ll have the most lethal military and who cozied up to Sarah Longwell and fucking Liz Cheney and spent time chasing Republican votes and basically promising nothing to anyone from the moderates to the left

You fucking Overton shit shovelers are insufferable.

Hey you know what we might not have had climate change if Al Gore had gotten elected in 2000. Why aren’t we doing more hanging-chad memes?

Yeah Top Cop over here definitely would have done something about gun violence lmao

And so, to avoid this from happening again, next time the Democrats are going to propose a candidate that doesn't have that weak spot, right? RIGHT?

We don't have to settle.

The dnc is at fault here for not letting us choose the democratic nominee.

This is not on the people.

Field better candidate next time instead of a genocide accomplice.

Ok it's paraphrased but like yeah I really felt like she had our backs in this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbVPee2UdJk

I voted for Kamala. But her weak spine-ass would've let Israel do the exact same thing to Palestinians. She said she wouldn't be any different from Biden, and we know Biden was a huge Zionist.

Of course though, Democrats will clutch their pearls even to this day saying that it was someone else's fault as to why she lost. No it fucking wasn't. Kamala had the MOST support immediately after Biden backed out. She even brought Tim Walz on board who seemed decently progressive at the time. And then Dems started capitulating to the Right. It was sickening to hear at the DNC, "the world's strongest military".

And then just yesterday, the DNC votes to block a resolution condemning dark money, including AIPAC, in elections. Establishment Dems are cancer in my eyes. We know Republicans are evil, so Democrats should be the ideological opposite - yet they aren't. They let Republicans get away.

We urgently need Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) in this country so we can finally break free of these horrendous 2 choices. Or we don't and stochastic terrorism rises because politicians refuse to curtail corporations and people suffer more and more financially.

can we please stop relitigating 2024 all over lemmy right new? everyone's being just as inneffective and useless rn 2026 as they were two years ago. if you're actually interested in doing something about all this awfulness get out into the streets, go to mutual aid projects, train with community defense groupsg and actually do something useful. this is like the 5th fucking thing i've seen on lemmy, from either side of what action should have been taken 2 years ago (ie: vote for Kamala, don't vote for Kamala) and i'm fucking sick of it.

just like i didn't encounter anyone with lemmy's "vote 3rd party, it's the only way forward" political stances out in the real world, i'm not encountering anyone who's still thinking this hard about a day 2 years ago who's actually doing anything to address these problems

Oh boy can't wait to rehash this braindead take again tomorrow. I swear guys she only lost to DT because you weren't locked in

Every president in the USA has supported Israel as long as Israel has been a thing, but none of them before Trump let Israel goad them into starting a direct war with Iran.

Impossible to say definitely, but there's no reason to believe Kamala Harris would have either.

So if this is why the Democrat candidate failed then the next candidate they put up won't support Israel since the Democrats will learn from their mistakes? I would like that, but I don't think it will happen. I think the new candidate will be the same as the old candidate and the Dem's will have learned nothing. Pro-business, pro-Israel, soft on regulations, soft on Republican lawbreaking, and corrupt as hell.
