  • I think the comment above hits on some important truths:

    • The country wanted more, not less, populism. Kamala offered good economic populist policies, but failed to message them to the populace in a way that mattered
    • The entire political machine failed to respond to that the people on the ground are either in support of ending genocide, or at least are indifferent to genocide. No votes were ever won by supporting a genocide. Yet there they were, supporting a genocide and acting like it was the only way. The people indifferent to genocide were far more likely to vote republican in the first place
    • The democrats failed to hold the republicans responsible for the January 6th insurrection accountable, enabling them to just simply come back and do what they’re doing right now
    • The democrats failed to use the blueprint the republicans handed them for passing legislation without full bipartisan support because they’re a bunch of decorum addicts
    • The democrats are now failing to use the blueprint republicans handed them for how to obstruct the shit out of things (why the fuck is anyone voting “yes” on any of trump’s nominees regardless of whether or not they’re good, they fit into an overall system of bad



  • it’s also all nakedly obvious. it’s maddening how many people don’t see how everything all fits together, including (especially) here on lemmy. all the world’s oligarchs are gearing up to wipe us all out and secure as many mineral resources for themselves in the bloodbath. the frustration that biden did nothing to slow the genocides our nation was in contact with, to me, is not so much the “it’s alreadyea genocide, things can’t get worse than that” stance a lot of lemmings took, but rather that it enabled that thought process and that way too many people, including biden, kamala, pelosi, and schumer, underestimated what a fucking freak trump is. the palestinian genocide is going to be analogous to the armenian genocide between wwi and wwii compared to what’s about to go down in the territories controlled by russia and the united states being analogous to the holocaust.

    i genuinely don’t understand how other people aren’t seeing the ways all these things connect together.









  • I started listing them but eventually gave up because it was hard to properly distinguish the wars that started by invaded Poland and the wars that resulted in invading Poland. The problem is that throughout European history, Russia has wanted to invade other parts of Europe, or other parts of Europe have wanted to invade Russia, and Poland’s just kind of there.
