I don’t get why they’re still going at it over this. This lefty infighting is exactly why fascists that hate each other somehow manage to gain ground.

There’s nothing wrong with using what little power one had in voting blue. It doesn’t mean they’re “pro-genocide”. We’re elbow-deep in a shitty system where we had two awful friggin choices, and the system is designed so that objection is simply removing your voice entirely.

I can understand that rationale on a moral level, to want to abstain from this nonsense entirely. I get it. But also there’s no way we could’ve convinced the majority of a brainwashed country to say “none of these.” (That’s not even an option on many ballots btw). It’d be awesome! But not realistic.

But for the people actively bashing those who voted blue in last-ditch desperation, seriously can you not understand it? Believe me, we know the Dems bring nothing to the table besides “Not being those guys.” I doubt there were so many “Kamala fans” compared to how many were “Not this Cheeto-Toddler shit again” fans.

It’s not about “enabling genocide” or not, to those folks. We figured that a blue win would mean a government that could still be swayed by the people to act against violence, even if the chance was slim!

This compared to a tyrannical regime that will simply iron-fist any dissent to their single-minded aims, and actively make the world worse every day.

We had a razor-thin chance to give ourselves just a little more time to change things.

But here we are:

• It was a struggle to motivate people to vote at all.
• Apathetic squabbling over moral nuance didn’t stand a chance against zealoutous fanaticism.
• What now? Can we finally demolish the Democratic party for failing us while replacing it with those who would speak for us?

It’s time we learn to get along and focus on what is and claw for every inch of ground if we’re going to fix anything. Because they aren’t going to give us any breathing room while we keep dunking on each other for not being “pure enough for the cause.”
