So you want trump to win? /s
You say that but op has said that seriously before
Independents can't win without a base.
seems the democrats can’t win with a base. guess they are going to have to change their position…
I don't care if independents win or if the democrats start to become slightly less evil. But for fuck's sake, the democrats victory should be contingent upon them pulling support for Israel. And they should have no problem doing that. Anything short of that is horrifying.
I don't care how the Democrats win, I just want Trump to lose. I'm scared.

The difference between serious leftists and performative leftists on Lemmy is that serious leftists use Lemmy to talk to voters. Performative leftists use Lemmy to talk to politicians.
Perfectly stated. If you have a problem with a politician's messaging, that's fine and normal, but that's a conversation to have with that politician and their staff. As I put it in another thread, it's my dentist's job to encourage responsible dental hygiene, but if I don't brush it's my teeth that rot.
Democrats care about messaging (especially to centrists and republicans). Leftists care about actions. Leftists tend to hate imperialist action with a progressive hashtag more vocally because it’s just as deadly and twice as deceitful.
Assuming the metaphor is that western society is a mouth of teeth, it was full of rot before we were born. Republicans want to eat more candy. Democrats want to eat the same amount of candy republicans ate 4 years ago but brush every couple years at the voting booth in the hopes that the rot gets brushed away. Leftists want the rotten teeth pulled since it’s starting to affect the entire system now and will soon ~~destroy the world~~ cause heart disease if action isn’t taken.
Correction: Democrats can't win without convincing everyone that accepting a politician who's worse than Bush is the only way to stop the next Trump

Damn maybe they should start trying to get votes instead of thinking "I'm not the other guy" will somehow work this time.
