You seem to be assuming that they didn’t vote for no apparent reason.

The back half of the shell is easy though, I swapped mine with a transluscent purple backplate a few months back. ^_

Conservatives, liberals, and neoliberals are all just subtypes of the classical liberal.

I get one of these long hairs on the very top of my ears. It’s weird.

These terms are rather well understood by leftists, it’s only liberals who think they mean the same thing.

I have much respect for drag and don’t disagree with that point in general, but in this particular case I must protest.

Democracy is a process for legitimizing a government. The voters cannot fail at voting, they can only be failed by elected parties that don’t faithfully represent their interests once in power. The responsibility is entirely incumbent on the parties themselves, as they get to pick how they manipulate public sentiment into supporting them and the voters have no agency in the decisions those parties make.

It’s been so frustrating to have to put up with Democrats that try to enforce a Republican-style party line instead of building the coalition they need to win.

It’s even more frustrating when they put a hundred times more effort into trying to build a coalition with members of the party they claim to be a threat to Democracy instead of their own left wing.

“Thoughts and Prayers”

Seems a fitting epitaph for America.

Sure, blame the voters for the lack of choice they were given. That seems very productive and totally not just an excuse so you don’t have to admit that the Democrats are responsible for enabling genocide.

Harris should have lied, then. There’s no punishment for promising the world and failing to deliver.

You’re not wrong, but there’s no way to get there from here that doesn’t involve the American political system becoming something else first.

I use Masa Harina, that same Mexican corn flour that’s used to make tortillas.

There was never any democracy here to save, and no way to make it sustainable without tearing down the constitution and starting over, and no way to hold a new constitutional convention that wouldn’t be poisoned by money and power from the start.

an AI market that’s projected to reach $1.3 trillion by 2032.

I wish there was a way to short an entire industry., I could get rich on betting against techbro hype.

I wouldn’t, too many people think the less-harmful fascists are on their side and would only actively resist fascism if the worse ones win.

I enjoy political discussion and will happily argue just for the sake of it.

Also, the faces of liberals and other right-wingers turn all sorts of interesting colors when you explain basic political realities to them, like how the Democrats are fascists on par with the Republicans.

Hey @1984@lemmy.today, did you forget about me?

A solid blue one where my vote will count for nothing.

If you’re talking about your other post, you’ll find I responded to it line-by-line, and then you called me a Lib. XD

Of course not. You posted a wall of text in response to a very simple question and captioned it “This is good.”

If you have a point, please do make it. XD
