I sympathize with the commentor who you are responding to although I know my present crap life could always get worse and probably will. Just doesn’t feel like much to lose

We couldn’t defeat the Nazis or the Confederates with dialogue. They are not going to even let us vote them out no matter how badly they do.
You basically can’t teach conservatives. If they were capable of learning and changing they wouldn’t be conservatives in the first place. Consider that the majority of self avowed conservatives in the US literally believe the world is less than 10,000 years old created as is and jeebus is coming back real soon now. Literally 30% of the US population believes this!
White supremacy and the flat earth are actually gaining ground in this group.
Step 1 round up 5M people.
Step 2 announce what everyone knows that you can’t actually deport 5M people.
Step 3 rent them back to their former employers
Later on we can allow subcontracting people and fully restore slavery.
They can even theoretically work their way to freedom except housing food etc can just cost more than they earn making it impossible to achieve
Why not set it in 2030 with y’all quida as the enemies
The vaccines kept those vulnerable parties from dying. The fact that vaccinated people had less severe cases isn’t theoretical it is extremely well studied. It was reasonable to suppose it would slow the spread as less chance of infection means less chance of spreading it but factually vaccinated people were much more likely to take risks ergo this certainly more than canceled out benefits in that respect.
Also your concept that Biden killed millions is just un-mathmatical. The total deaths in the US after Biden took office is ~800,000. There aren’t millions of deaths to lay at his feet period and laying even those 800k at Biden’s feet is nonsense. Logically if you want to explore the impact of the president you would have to compare not vs a fantasy world in which there is no covid but a hypothetical one in which an alternative Biden made better choices with justification as to how your counterfactual is both foreseeable AND actionable.
For instance it makes no sense to ask 2021 Biden to act on scientific insight earned in 2023 or enact policies which is out of scope of his power, illegal, unconstitutional, or up to the states.
By forcing people to vaccinate or lose their jobs, people just wholesale discounted the entire pandemic rather than take other meaningful precautions.
It is profoundly weird to blame the left for conservatives refusing to protect themselves or others and blame their entire weird psychotic philosophy with its own proponents, memes, influences, and twisted perception of the world on the lefts vaccine mandate. Relatively few actually lost their job and the the entire movement pre-existed covid and only gained additional adherents and credence.
Also by the time Biden came into power n95 was already promoted as better unless you think Biden is at fault for not getting Trump’s regime to promote better masks.
To recap
1.2M died since 19ever not millions
Of those 800k died after Biden took office.
It’s not clear that many could have been saved by superior federal policy.
Your claim that Biden’s actions led to the deaths of millions appears to be your fantasy unsupported by any objective reality because you are both scientificly illiterate and don’t even know how many people died.
Please explain how Biden’s policies killed millions
Millions were not killed by Bidens covid policy nor was he in any fashion fascist outside of your fantasies
Voting third party while the choice is between normal if shitty and a literal fascist dictator who wants to put millions of people in concentration camps knowing that a lot of people may literally die if we lose at this juncture is performative shittiness.
My family has been impoverished since basically fucking forever and I thus have little space for performative shit by shit stains who would kick us while we are down to make what they misperceive as a point
Perhaps you are failing to notice that I’m just taking a passing dig at the fact that you use a trash rag as a source and the actually unreliable party is Israel and reporting on a different party which is just reporting the literal statements of the unreliable party isn’t itself more reliable
I don’t think Bebe’s regime should be deemed a reliable resource anymore than the Washington examiner.
This is literally the Biden deal negotiated in May 2024 and not instituted before election so as to avoid helping Biden. You are assigning Trump who isn’t even president credit for Biden’s peace deal.
Like 99.9999% of liberals I’m not actually in charge of the Democratic party or their broader strategy. Come election season I can choose
A) To vote against republicans in the general election B) To vote for more liberal parties in primaries
That is basically it. The effects of electing Republicans is often substantial risk to our nation and to myself personally so I cannot afford to score political points by voting third party nor is there good reason to believe this would be effective. The historical fact for 40 years has been that winners on the left side of the aisle had to appear attractive to moderates and liberals which limited how far left it was useful to get. Not to mention most far left positions are bad for the rich and corporations at least in the short run which leads to money drying up and the moderates who get said funding and more support from fellow moderates winning.
Basically folks like you are threatening other folks with losing if they don’t execute a losing strategy. This is why it didn’t happen because you weren’t actually offering a path towards victory. Maybe after Trump completely ass fucks our country and probably impoverishes it for a generation we will actually have more will for real change but I wouldn’t have chosen to sacrifice my family to achieve it.
Because we generally didn’t get to pick between genocide and Trump it was between genocide and bigger genocide
Blue maga is a stupid stupid term by stupid stupid people
100x is ridiculously unrealistic it’s what you would expect for a community that was literally about being trans vs what one would expect from a community that accepts trans people.
You mean being dubious of an online poll
MAGA is a movement that glorifies a Hitler like figure who has promised to put tens of millions of honest workers in concentration camps because somehow immigrants are the cause of all their woes. These folks were both willing to deny any loss for any reason and willing to kill their neighbors in a civil war to “take their county back” if they lose.
“bluemaga” are people what mad that America’s Hitler won?
Its going to double or tripple if we deport or scare half the ag workforce away and don’t offer an exorbitant wage to do the time sensitive work leading to food rotting
