    Other voters in swing states had real issues with

    I’m not sure those voters exist. Lemmy thinks that they do but i don’t see any evidence that they’re real people.

    At any rate there’s little difference between not-voting and not-existing in the grand scheme so now we get to see what happens when an unashamed fascist wins and surrounds himself with yes men.

    Unless those principled non-voters are ready to arm themselves and actually agitate, they might as well not exist and we can proceed accordingly.

      I still don’t understand your point.

      All you’re doing is continuing to shame voters who didn’t vote for your candidate, even after these voters told your candidate what their priorities were.

      The only substantial thing Kamala ran on was that she wasn’t Trump. Outside of not being Trump she is a shell of a human being who has no real values and will always change her views based on the campaign contributions she receives. Voters saw through her fake personality.

      Continuing to try and shame voters for not supporting your candidate isn’t going to accomplish anything, much in the same way Obama and Hillary trying to shame voters accomplished little as well.

      The DNC can’t even beat a buffoon like Trump because they are so bought and paid for by corporate and dark money PACs.

      Maybe try stop trying to blame voters and focus your energies in that direction.

        I don’t disagree with anything you’ve said except.

        Continuing to try and shame voters for not supporting your candidate isn’t going to accomplish anything

        Who was MY candidate? I had to vote for the same milquetoast dem every other functional adult did. I weighed the options and made a decision. If some hypothetical non-voters think they have a better solution let’s see it, they should be ashamed. Sitting in basements screeching online doesn’t accomplish anything so let’s fucking go.

        I’m just waiting for the revolution to start, that’s what we all want right?
