    You blame the dnc doing a poor job campaigning (trying to pull in some centrist vote) as the reason they lost, it’s the same as blaming the gop doing an effective job campaigning (by lying). Nope. It’s the fault voters who are stupid and blind that failed to see through the posturing and effectively voted for the fascist assholes who are now destroying the U.S. You shouldn’t need handholding to see the gop is evil and the dnc isn’t as bad. You had a choice between those, and you picked trump 2 - you own the result.

      Seriously. It’s the bare minimum obligation as a member of society to be informed and engaged in the civic process, including understanding how our system works in practice and the ability to look past what pols say and simply see how they vote, and how those policies actually affect the country. It takes very little time and effort and intelligence to be at least this engaged, and 70 percent of Americans can’t be fucked. Trump and maga are fully the fault and responsibility of the average US American non and third party voter.

        Must be a coincidence, but most the people defending the DNC and blaming voters instead, I’ve tagged previously for defending Israel.

              Listen buddy, I’m an American and am actually aware of how our political system works and, quite frankly, don’t give a fuck that Dems are soft on Israel because the republicans are worse and that’s known to anyone who isn’t a fucking moron. You wanna get Israel out of American politics? You vote dem and primary with progressives running on election reform and getting money out of politics but all y’all are too fucking principled and stupid to do the literally only viable in the US option. So yes, it’s all y’alls fault. Everyone who hasn’t voted straight blue and in the primaries since 2016 voted for explicitly this and deserves ice in their neighborhood.

                I do, not going to change me criticizing politicians for being pro genocide.

                So yes, it’s all y’alls fault. Everyone who hasn’t voted straight blue and in the primaries since 2016 voted for explicitly this and deserves ice in their neighborhood.

                You don’t give a shit about why the Democratic Party has gone down in popularity, why it’s approval is at an all time low. I do. I give a shit about what needs to change in order for them to be a genuine opposition party. One that actually runs on improving the material conditions of all Americans.

                Harris lost because her campaign sucked, because of the proximity of her positions to those of Republican positions.

                Mamdani won because he ran on exactly what the entire Democratic party needs to run on in order to regain popular support, sway independents, and fracture the Republican base.

                Everyone who hasn’t voted straight blue and in the primaries since 2016 voted for explicitly this and deserves ice in their neighborhood.

                No one deserves the Gestapo, fuck your cruelty.

                  Harris’ platform never changed, just the messaging, which was apparently enough for the low info left that always suspiciously seem to criticize Democrats but never republicans.

                    I routinely criticize Republicans, and Democrats who love their policies. You can an analysis of Harris’ failed messaging below

        This is basically how I feel. I agree generally with the original meme but it’s also still absolutely the voters fault for being so fucking stupid and uninformed.
