        it was so blatantly naked, too. we had to cordon trump from power, vote the republicans into irrelevance, and then launch a progressive political movement. now trump has near infinite power, voting may never happen again, and our progressive movement has to operate in an environment where participation may legitimately get you killed.

        this is why accelerationism doesn’t work. does chuck schumer seem like he’s learned his lesson to you? have you actually punished the democrats for running to far right? or have you punished uninformed voters and yourself for not knowing how horrifically bad donald trump is?

        the elites have always, and always had enough access to protect them. and running mutual aid networks is not somehow easier when everyone is dependant on them rather than just some.

        If you believe they were genuinely left wing and not concern-trolling shills.

      Everyone who voted third party still wouldn’t have made Kopmala president.

      Maybe instead of blaming the minority of people who have decency you blame the 80% of white men and 60% of white women who voted for Trump?

      I mean, Kamala wanted to be trump so bad didn’t she? Supporting israel, saying trump was too soft on the border, dunking on trans people, surely it’s our fault for not voting for a ghoul.

      Get over yourself.

        I blame everyone who didn’t vote for Harris. They all contributed to Trump and his fascist takeover.

        Gaza protestors were tricked into voting against their own best interest and that is a lesson that should be learned from instead of repeated.

        But bad faith actors like yourself don’t care about Israel or Gaza. You are just trying to get less people to vote against fascism.

          Bad faith actors? If you don’t care about my people’s plight for self determination why should I care about yours?

          It’s a two way street, the policy on Palestine didn’t change between Biden or Trump. Maybe blame your own party for that.

            You don’t care about “your people’s” plight as we can prove with Trump’s 2nd term.

            Policy on Palestine definitely did change. Protestors are disappearing and Trump plans to own Gaza and much more.

            This is the result of bad faith actors like yourself helping Trump get elected.

      Joe Biden and his administration sent 8 billion dollars worth of hellfire missiles, artillery shells and bombs in January. He sent 20 billion in August. Your quotes aren’t necessary.

      You mean the dude who fully supports this genocide and led us directly into fascism?

      Yes. Good thing nobody voted for that trash.

        The people like yourself, that complained about our only choice other than fascism, are the ones to blame for getting fascism elected.

        Just admit you thought that republicans would fuck up so bad that you would be able to start a revolution
