It's crazy the amount of people that think the evil voters are at fault and not the political party that made a wedge issue out of fucking genocide of all things.

So glad the current guys got in! How's that going for ya btw? That genocide stop? No? It's accelerating? So glad more children can die so you can still confidently hold your nose in the air.

I hate the current guy even more. It seriously bothers me that the dems lost to him because they thought genocide was more important then you and me. I really wish they would have ran a proper platform, so we didnt have to vote for democracy and genocide at the same time, and still lose.

Keep blaming everyone but them and maybe we can have the same circus next election too. We all just have to come together and accept genocide, apathy and status quo like maybe three or four more times.

We will remember the devil's bargain we were forced to answer, so will the rest of the world.

This is a watershed moment in world history.

Repeat after me: Israel is committing a genocide.

[–] InvertedParallax@lemm.ee 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yes they are.

As is Russia, half a dozen countries, and oh we stopped funding the who and usaid.

So we're now aiding multiple genocides.

MISSION fucking ACCOMPLISHED.

Yeah, fucking duh! I'm not arguing that brain child.

[–] piefood@feddit.online 5 points 4 days ago (8 children)

Wait, you mean the thing that we told the Dems would happen, happened? Crazy, who could have seen that coming? It's almost like we wanted them to be a party of decency, so we could tell people to vote for them without having to defend the killing of children.

Maybe next time, the Dems should put up a candidate people want to vote for, instead of shaming people for being against Genocide.

So glad that you held the country, and especially vulnerable populations like LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, immigrants, and disabled people, not to mention the Palestinian and Ukrainian people, hostage while demanding that Dems do things that have zero historical evidence of them agreeing to. I can't speak for all of us but, I bet the others are also glad that you were able to keep your moral high-ground and didn't feel at all betrayed and upset about it. /s

Yes, you successfully ushered in fascism, just like you threatened to do. Give yourself a pat on the back.

[–] piefood@feddit.online 3 points 3 days ago (16 children)

It was not a threat, it was a warning. If you keep putting up bad candidates and bad policies, people aren't going to want to vote for you. I voted against fascism. The Democrats told me to sit down and shut up so that they could assist in ushering in fascism. Get mad at them, not me.

So you're saying it's not any fascist's fault for voting for a fascist, because they were manipulated?

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I think they are referring to the protest non voters because of the Palestine Israeli conflict.

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 days ago (35 children)

Oh, well that's okay. Nobody has a moral obligation to resist fascism. Calling people evil for letting a neo-nazi wannabe dictator take control of the government is absurd
