Her record is not spotless tbh.

Anyway, easy solution to the problem: ban Trump and the GOP. Bam, fascism is no more.

[-] deaf_fish@lemm.ee 2 points 1 hour ago

Well, fascism will still exist if you ban Trump and GOP.

Is there a person alive on this planet now with a so called "spotless" record? OP, are you of all the major decisions Kamala has made and you agree with them?

[-] surph_ninja@lemmy.world -3 points 41 minutes ago

She’s already said she will continue arming Israel, which is a felony at this point.

Proudly proclaiming she will commit a felony day one is a good indication of how I expect the rest of her term to go.

[-] Randelung@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Four more days. And then another year? Maybe ten?

It's exhausting.

Apparently putting a huge number of people in jail for minor possession of a drug that is only illegal because of racist 70s politics is spotless, and doing so to support capitalizing the prison system, is spotless. I call it dehumanizing and unconstitutional, but I just care about empirical data that apparently is completely unimportant in tribalist capitalist worshiping countries like the USA.

Agree on your points, I honestly fucking hate cops and by extension prosecutors that enable and collude with them. However the only other option is worse than a pig.

I don't count "spotless prosecutorial record" as a win, but given the two viable choices I'll take it over "shockingly successful fascist demagogue" every time, and twice on Sundays.

I holding my finger over the button as long as possible in the hope that the button that the "spotless prosecutorial record" will suddenly add the "stop abetting a genocide" portion we've been asking for since before they changed out the previous button, but I guess I'll be going for the option that isn't currently telling me how my existence is threatening to them and hope that they'll follow through on valuing human life this time around.

A perfectly good meme but I would say it might still presume a little too much good faith.

They're not undecided. They want to vote for Trump and are desperately hoping for a socially acceptable reason to do so.

[-] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

It's only them and God in the voting booth. What's stopping them?

[-] Edgarallenpwn@midwest.social 2 points 2 hours ago

I think you answered yourself with the question. Someone better with words could make an OK joke out of it.

You not only need to vote for the candidate of their choice, you also need to match whatever they pick. Yey! Democracy!

Enter to win!

Prices included: " new president!"

Rules:

-Pick whoever you want

-If the electoral college picks the person you picked, then congratulations! You picked the winner 🏆🏆🏆🏆!

-if the electoral college picks someone else, then congratulations! You got a different president than the one you picked because your vote is worthless!

Yey! Democracy!

But do go vote, this is just a sarcastic comment about the stupid way we pick...the electoral college picks presidents for us like kings. The rest of the ballot is full of things that you do actually vote for, like local representatives, education leaders, district judges etc. Only the presidential election is not actually your thing. The rest of it is probably more important anyway so who cares if the electoral college picks Mexico's president to be our president. They could pick Kim Jung Un, but our president is usually a lame duck anyway the entire time due to the Republican party cock blocking their every move....like your student loans! Remember those? The fucking republican party block all attempts so far. But again, don't worry about it, it's not our thing. Let's let the electoral college to worry about it.

The rest of the ballot is full of things [...] like local representatives, education leaders, district judges etc.

Maybe OT, but I've been watching a lot of voting advice on twitter, reddit, etc this year, and whenever someone mentions how important it is to get educated about your local options on the ballot, they get a flood of comments accusing them of encouraging people to abstain from voting or to vote 3rd party. It appears to be one limb of an aggressive anti-vote apathy or disinfo campaign.

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Not sure if it's OT, but we definitely forget that the ballot affects you more personally within the other non presidential elections. Like the president, ultimately is just a guy. He's not gonna come here locally and fix my potholes. It's the local guy who does that shit. That's the election we should be really keen on. And then sure, let's build some more raptors and finish North Korea indirectly somehow before they do something stupid.
