Its because "theyre pedos" has been a major rightwing talking point for decades. Its difficult to flip a talking point the other side has devolped over that many years. The right is fully conditioned to view dems as pedos and the left is fully condition to disregard political pedo claims as baseless

I agree. If left leaning voters were more active in the primary we could fix all of this. BUT we have to realize primarying centrists isnt about shitting on centrists, its about uplilting an alternative. Leftidts big pilrimary push in 2024 was 'undecided' which was bullshit.

If we want to talk about who REALLY abandoned marginalized people ot was never-kamala leftists who decided they rather have a white supremacist fascist autocrat than a black woman as president.
March 10, 2025 at 2:21 PM
They didnt drop support for marginalized people, they just tried to appeal to more people as well which is what you have to do to won and election. Its not a zero sum game. Dems reaching out expanding to the center does not mean theyre screwing over everyone else.
March 10, 2025 at 2:14 PM
Trying to win an election in order to be able to help marginalized groups is not abandoning them. You really think focusing your entire campaign on the smallest possible groups is a good way to win a national election?
March 10, 2025 at 1:43 PM
You'll find primarying them and replacing them with further left candidates difficult because 1) leftists dont run for office and 2) leftists dont vote. They dont participate at all they just bitch and moan about everyone else not doing enough.

You really think Trump is authentic? When he ran on grocery proces you really think he gave a shit about prices? You really think he has a healcare plan or thought mexico would pay for the wall? Trumps entire platfom is phony, real question is why being phony works so well for him
March 10, 2025 at 7:12 AM
Democrats entire message in 2024 was "vote to save democracy" and they were dragged over the coals, accused of fear mongering, and constantly told what voters really care about is egg prices. Trump won the election with his unauthentic grocery price BS.
March 10, 2025 at 7:07 AM
How did they abandon marginalized groups? They shifted center right because thats who votes. Check the exit polls. Most american voters thought dems were too far left. They cant help marginalized groups if they focus so much on pandering they lose support from the majority of voters
March 10, 2025 at 6:03 AM
Even if that description of dems wasnt absurd and false, if I really did have to choise between full trump and "trump lite", id do every thing i could to keep us from going full trump.
March 10, 2025 at 5:34 AM
No its not okay. The only way fascism ends is if the facists lose elections. If you spend all your time attacking the only practical alternative we have to facism, youre just ensuring it continues.
March 10, 2025 at 5:31 AM
Thats true of every republican. Democrats didnt hand republicans power, the voters did that despite dems doing litterally everything in their power to convince us not to
March 10, 2025 at 5:28 AM
Theres a concept of picking your battles. If democrats treat every nomination the same just becayse theyre republican it normalizes the truly horrible unqualified noms. Obviously dems dont want republicans leading the gov but thats what happens when voters elect republucans
March 10, 2025 at 5:25 AM
He was one of the few somewhat qualified people trump nominated. Obviously trump was going to fill his admins with republicans one way or anothet, and republican noms will do republican shit.

Why TF are universities complying with this. The federal government can't ban words from being used. Where's the pushback?
February 11, 2025 at 12:47 PM
Those are people that want Republican fiscal policy without the full throated racism. I dont agree with it but i get it.
February 5, 2025 at 10:33 PM
You think the rest of us are electing democrats just for its own sake? You think I was out here begging people to support Biden because I enjoy listening to him ramble? Bro it's a means to an end for all of us. I'm trying to save as many vulnerable ppl I can
February 5, 2025 at 10:23 PM
Well at least you acknowledge supporting a politician in an election = attacking their opposition. The transitive property applies here. Thats my main point. A lot of leftist gave Trump a lot of free suppot. As long as your aim is to help the dem nom win in the general we're good
February 5, 2025 at 10:06 PM
Then don't renominate them. Find primary challengers you support and go all in on supporting them. Then when the primaries are over get to work on doing everything you can to make sure whatever dem was picked beats the republican
February 5, 2025 at 6:49 PM
And until they do you're going to keep working to get Republicans elected? Not a good plan. We need to do everything we can to keep Republicans out of office. Helping reublicas win, then blaming democrats, is not going to help this country.
February 5, 2025 at 5:45 PM
Democrats responsibility is to vote on bills. Thats their job. It's the media's job to present information to the public, paint the picture and set the narrative. Thats what the media is for. When you post about politics on social media, you become the media, you make it your job
February 5, 2025 at 5:40 PM
People believe what they hear the most. If the geneal population hears reason after reason that democrats are bad and never hears any attacks on Republicans guess who thyre going to believe are the worse? That's why we fing lost last year
February 5, 2025 at 5:35 PM
And you think the sit-at-homes made the right choice? Obviously not. There was enough information available to paint a very clear picture as to why Trump had to be stopped. The sit-at-homes sat at home because no one presented them with that picture. We were too busy attacking dems
February 5, 2025 at 5:31 PM
If preserving the very existence of our democracy & their own basic human rights wasnt enough to vote for in 2024 no policy position ever will be. It's not a policy problem, it's a propaganda problem. They don't know how imperative it is Dems win because we're too busy attacking dems to tell them.
February 5, 2025 at 5:16 PM
OK. If Republican voters are lost causes and Democrat voters are already on board then obviously your target should be undecided voters or people who didn't care to show up. How do you think constantly pointing out flaws in democrats but never republicans will effect those people?
