Y’know like a real revolution to overthrow a tyrannical government with overwhelming numbers by far.

    100 million people even getting involved twice every four years (once for the primaries and once for the election) they could literally put anyone they wanted with any policy into the white house.

    Pretending voting fixes issues? My brother in Christ you guys couldn’t be bothered to vote! Trump lost ground in terms of absolute number of votes. Fewer people voted for him in 2024 than did in 2020.

    Like jfc imagine saying voting doesn’t fix things 2 days after an election where you forgot to vote.

      I think we need to discuss the serious chance that the Free Palestine message was designed to disrupt and demoralize the left.

      We already know that the LA Times non-endorse + WashPo non-endorse + Gannett (who owns hundreds of local papers) non-endorse was specifically designed to demoralize us in the days before the election.

      One Billionaires being scared of Trump making a non-endorse play? Okay I can believe that. Three that happened all within days of each other as a seemingly pre planned strategy??

      No. Just no. We have some major enemies working against us and specifically trying to demoralize us this year. And it worked.

        So you guys don’t have free will or something? Papers don’t endorse a candidate so you don’t vote?

          This is an election where people didn’t even know Biden wasn’t running anymore, as Google Trend searches of “Did Biden Drop Out of the Election” skyrocketed during the election.
