The problem with right wing populism is the right wing part.

Why do you guys hate populism

Not right wing populism mind you just the concept of populism as a whole.

Like please stop rejecting the concept causing only the right to be associated with it when its so incredibly popular.

Basically change the fucking basic civics them cause what is currently happening is not working for fucking anyone.
January 28, 2026 at 12:22 AM
Ill formulate it better cause yes the way I said this was vitrolic.

Basic Civics is not fucking helping anyone and the dems are seemingly the only ones playing with it anyways. People are getting more than a little tired of just getting "well it sucks but it is how it is" when shit is burning
January 28, 2026 at 12:21 AM
I said it in a dumb way, but maybe listen to normal people and realize that "basic civics" isnt fucking helping anyone atm and is only really played by one side.

Like thats part of the issue here. A lot of people myself included is tired of "basic civics" fucking everything over.
January 28, 2026 at 12:19 AM
Cause yes ill admitt my bitterness got the better of me and I just said shit in the most acidic way possisble.
January 28, 2026 at 12:16 AM
Thank you for formulating my feelings in a far better way than I did
January 28, 2026 at 12:14 AM
Why should I?

Like why should I yell at the hurricane for destroying houses?
January 27, 2026 at 9:43 PM
Yes cause mom keeps getting dad new belts and arent doing anything to actually help.....
January 27, 2026 at 9:38 PM
Pretty sure the idea is more that ypu need more activist action than just voting to change anything.
January 27, 2026 at 9:36 PM
I mean.....yeah?

What do you think will happend exactly, thats litterally how it always goes.
January 27, 2026 at 9:35 PM
Then get better at marketing it.
January 27, 2026 at 9:34 PM
Harris or the Dem party at large.

Voters arent wrong. You dont blame the voters.
January 27, 2026 at 9:33 PM
Its still up to the dems (or up to any party) to get people to vote for them. Its up to the party to change the voters.

Thats why people dont attack the GOP as much. Cause they arent really failing at what they are supposed to do. Quite the opposite. Yes they are evil but they are doing their thing
January 27, 2026 at 9:32 PM
Evidently something went wrong since they didnt vote for her? Its a politicans job to get people to vote for them.
January 27, 2026 at 9:30 PM
Be just a bit more populist it would do wonders.

Im not talking about the right wing populism crap either.
January 27, 2026 at 9:29 PM
Cause the people who did the wrong thing are the majority so we have to get some of the people that did the wrong thing to do the right thing.
January 27, 2026 at 9:27 PM
You can do that as a liberal. Obama did EXACTLY that as a liberal.
January 27, 2026 at 9:26 PM
I actually dont think they neccesarly need to change to be leftist even tho thats a direction I would like.

But I think they need a charismatic likeable presidental canidate that belives in whatever they are saying. Preferably someone who is also percived as an outsider and isnt ancient.
January 27, 2026 at 9:26 PM
You are talking as if I ever thought he was better. I didnt.

But many definitly did. Cause they presumably felt she would be too similar to Biden, who was historically unpopular and most people, not just hardcore MAGAs viewed as a disaster.
January 27, 2026 at 9:24 PM
Never said anything about reasonable or justified. Just that they did and will in the future and trying to see why they did it.
January 27, 2026 at 9:14 PM
Why do you keep bringing up if something is "sane, rational and reasonable"

Like no but thats irrelevant.
January 27, 2026 at 9:11 PM
I very much do not like Newsom lol
January 27, 2026 at 9:10 PM
Eggs where symbolic of a greater fustration, altho yes Eggs in paticular wasnt on him.

Still any opposition worth their salt will throw any argument they can on the government even if its dishonest.
January 27, 2026 at 9:09 PM
I mean you can try to adress it all you want but its not really something you can do anything about. So yes it should be panerad too.
