Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Drag doesn't mean your excuse for not voting. Drag means your excuse for justifying other people's decision not to vote. They elected a fascist and you're defending them. There is no excuse.
Blame the Democratic Party for not winning their vote in "the most important election of our lifetimes" and instead trying to appeal to the center right.
To sort of reiterate the point in my original comment, let me ask you two questions. You don't have to give me the answers, but at least ponder them internally:
What's your opinion on people who voted for Trump despite everything he's done, and try to blame all their problems on immigrants and leftists?
Why do you refuse to hold the Dems accountable for their campaign and the policies they run on, and keep trying to throw the blame on other people?
Blame isn't finite resource. Blame is infinite. Harris deserves all the blame. The voters also deserve all the blame. And people like you who demotivated the voters also deserve all the blame. You are all 100% responsible. And drag still doesn't care about any of the excuses you've continued to give.
When you make assumptions, you make an ass of you and me both. Here's the last comment I made on the electoral race, July 25th, after Biden stepped down.
Since then, I haven't said anything about it. But sure, if it makes you feel better, just keep on throwing blame everywhere except where it lies, like a monkey throwing feces everywhere. I don't have to excuse anything.
