Lemmylibs: "We can fix him! I don't know how, but you all must vote for him!"
Him: "How can I better appeal to the block that swore never to vote for me?"
We just need to write Jasmine Crockett's name on the ticket. Fuck the rest of the dems.
Talarico beat her in the primary. He's to her left.
American Elbe like…. 
The Democratic Party has really been a right wing party this whole time.
America hasn’t ever really had a real left wing
Correction: It hasn't had a real left wing since Truman. The Taft-Hartley act effectively excised the trade unions from having anything to do with the Democratic party. Half the Democratic party voted in favour of it, which allowed them to override Truman's veto.
I don't think Truman wanted to change the mode of production lol. Amaleka never had a real left wing.
oh yeah they're about to slide right from neocon-warhawk to SS-Totenkopf tattoos but still you have libs crying about "vote in the primaries!!"
Hey they got one of those Nazi tattoo guys and they're telling me I gotta believe he's practically Karl Marx!
"Vote in the primaries!"
"I do but the party actively undermines democracy during those. Repeatedly, openly, and unashamedly."
"Yeah well they're allowed to just choose whoever they want anyway so you have to vote for the neoliberal in the general."
You can vote but not be critical of any candidate or else you are just trying to help the republicans win....
You can vote but not be critical of any candidate
before or after the election or ever.
Offer void for anyone left of party leadership. Even bigoted attacks were perfectly fine against Mamdani. But say that Harris shouldn't have supported genocide and centrists will insist that you personally coronated trump.
Seriously, so fucking infuriating. How am I supposed to not be critical of the people who handed Donald Trump the presidency twice? And the first time they literally directed media outlets to prop him up in the Republican primary.
Right, I'm the problem with my one vote in a state that's gonna give their electors to the Democrat no matter what I do (but I vote for the shitty neoliberal in the general anyway). Not the elite class who gave our country to the fascists because that's what their donors wanted.
the United States is also a one-party state but, with typical American extravagance, they have two of them. — Julius Nyerere
I shall not go to the polls. I have not registered. I believe that democracy has so far disappeared in the United States that no "two evils" exist. There is but one evil party with two names, and it will be elected despite all I can do or say.... — W.E.B. Du Bois
Same thing in the UK. Just replace Democrats with Labour and MAGA with Reform.
Same in Canada. But switch the red and blue colours and our party names are more on the nose (Conservative/Liberal vs Republican/Democrat)
Same in Germany: The center right CDU tries to get voters from the far right AFD. Never worked, but they keep on trying.
the democrats are going to try again; that's why they blocked the release of their post-mortem investigation into the last election.
That's more like our Conservative party doing it (which they are), but Labour is meant to be a worker's party.
In 2002, twelve years after Margaret Thatcher left office, she was asked at a dinner what was her greatest achievement. Thatcher replied: “Tony Blair and New Labour. We forced our opponents to change their minds.
