The fascist conman promised kicking immigrants, banning muslims, protecting pedophiles, triggering libs and tax breaks for the rich, not to burn the system down. Project 2025 was there for all to see. And people just didn’t vote against him.

As long as the have been primaries the leftist candidate has lost. Maybe leftist should start acting instead of whining online?

That in itself is a choice.

I think the post is glorifying it.

Democrats put candidates in primaries and people votes for them, that’s my point. Just because you don’t like doesn’t mean Americans as a group don’t. Even if they disagree on a single issue.

If only lemmy kept context.

What about the 240 years before 2024?

By undercut you mean outvoted, right?

No. I’m saying that democrats already have the position that a wide majority of their constituents hold (as shown by the primary victories of corporate democrats time and again on a national level). The lemmy echo chamber doesn’t represent “wide majorities” whatsoever. Hillary and Kamala both lost by less than 5%.

Iif a few more idealists would have held their nose and voted blue despite the terrible candidates you would have problems right now of the type “the solar energy incentives are going to big corporations instead of homeowners” or “Kamala-Care offers too many loopholes and doesn’t provide a single payer system” instead of the current “the pedophile criminal is executing citizens in broad daylight while transferring 10 billion dollars to his slush fund and threatening war with Venezuela, Iran and Denmark”.

But at least you didn’t vote for an impure candidate, so you have that going for you… I’ll be enjoying my universal Healthcare, 14 months of paid maternity leave and 30 days of PTO over here. Peace!

So the other pizza was a pie of shit, not a bowl? I don’t see that as a major problem with the analogy…

Anyhoo, enjoy the 3 years of shit ahead…, maybe even 7 (Trump 2028!)

Microwave pizza? You have two hours to get me a gourmet truffle caviar pizza, or I’ll eat a bowl of shit!

Tell that to primary voter they seem to disagree with you.

You can also do it without blasting anyone.

Let’s popularize it! How about advertising?

But I’m sure lemmy geniuses know more about it…

It’s almost like there’s a multi billion industry based on it!

Someone should. I’m sure it has never been tried.

Surely companies will ignore decades of psychological studies and own marketing experience for a random article full of made up numbers.

My heart goes out to Musk…

So, chicken? /s

I am currently in India and I have absolutely no impression that people are controlled by terror. Those who oppose Modi seem to be very open about it.

EDIT: maybe it applies more to opposition politicians?

Source? I think speaking one language is pretty rare. Most Europeans speak at least two, most Africans I’ve met speak 3, lots of Indians speak 3 as well…
