One side aligns with my views 70% of the time. The other actively wants me and everyone like me to die. I refuse to acknowledge the differences between them. I’ll actually deploy this lack of understanding as a weapon to depress voter turnout and make sure the second group gets to wield power!
Do you not care about GENOCIDE???
/s
Genocide Joe!
Making sure the party that continually starts new wars in the Middle East gets elected will surely help my cause!
“Yeah but you support GENOCIDE!”
You say 'Genocide Joe!' like he didn't actually support and enthusiastically aid a genocide.
Good thing he wasn't on the ballot then
"If it hadn't been for Genocide Joe, I'd been married long time 'go..."
It must be so nice having worldviews that can be fully encapsulated by trolley memes
Well first you gotta gimme an example of one that wouldn’t fit.
I guess the view that I want to articulate could be represented as a trolley meme with the following changes:
If I try to simplify these changes, though, then maybe I could depict my view a bit like this?
Ngl I seen trolly memes set up like this before :p
Perhaps I should have said "worldviews that can be encapsulated by single-junction trolley memes", lol
Needs to be updated to add the Iranian flag to the GOP track. Man, do I wish there were a realistic way to choose that bottom track!
So, actually that question though? Genocide used to be a really, really bad thing, and here you're making light of it. I feel like people have lost the plot a bit if they talk about an actual genocide like this. "Yeah, sure they committed a bit of genocide, but have you seen the other guy?" I feel like I'm losing my mind
False.
One side SAYS they align with their views, and then do the same shit as Republicans, and kind of just expect you to swallow excuses. Meanwhile we've watched Donald act unilaterally with near absolute power for two years, so we know objectively that the lack of power was (and is) never the problem. It was that they didn't actually support what they said they did.
You don't know his views, he could be really into fracking, small business owners, and war.
That last one for sure.
Still, this is very obviously the worse outcome. Democracy isn't make a wish. You grow up and vote for the least shitty option to prevent the even more shitty options like an adult. Or you can keep crying about not getting your will like a child in the toy isle.
See you say the same shit as repulicans but thats literally what the post is about. Democrats were never going to repeal abortion rights or the voting rights acts.they were never going to start an oil crisis or a trade war and tank the economy the same way. They were never going to support ice the same way (they actually just held out on a partial government shutdown and exceeded my expectations in doing so). Saying that they do the same is a straight up lie. And I'm not saying dems are perfect. The bar is in hell. But they aren't doing the same.
I am both brown and from a third world (both in the original unaligned sense and in the newer impoverished sense) country. You fucked us over with Trump.
The slaves didn't care that Lincoln said in his debates with Douglas that whites were superior to blacks and that he supported an Illinois law against miscegenation. They cared that he removed them from bondage. Smart people take whatever progress they can get.
no sane person agrees with democrats 70% of the time lmao, maybe like 25% at best
That's an optimistic percentage, and yet still not an excuse to avoid voting for them.
it is propaganda method by the right, like your vote doesnt matter. thats how we end up getting schumers and hakeems of the congress, when less people vote, more conservative candidates are elected, this includes the DINOs. maine is currently fighting with susan collins, mills and platner 2 of them are conservatives.
