      It would have worked if the tankies and the normies had actually bothered to vote! But no, you rather vote for genocide and fascism by staying home.

      Liberals suck so much. She was probably told the talking point “protect children” yada yada and just signed it hoping to score political points without any critical thought on how it’s the opposite.

      She also signed an EO that lets people get covid shots without a perscription because the fed is run by people intent on destrying the country, so.

      Voting blue no matter who turned out to not be a good strategy.

      It’s funny how you relabel harm-reduction in voting, and imply the alternative wouldn’t have been far worse. It’s an art.

        Nothing makes me more hostile to the idea of voting blue than this fractally abusive rhetoric. If you’re a RNC operative, you are a very very good one.

        It’s harm reduction to vote for someone who just lets fascists implement their policies, anyways?

          Yes because they’re quieter and the white cis middle class liberals can all pretend everything’s okay. The gay ones too, until recently.

          Harm reduced. Not even some bullshit evisceration of a homeless guy (which I wanted) or harrowing shit done to trans people (which I could not give a single shit about) or immigrants dying in cages (behind tall walls where i don’t have to see them); harm to me! Harm that matters!

        The larger problem is that the Democrats are worthless and unpopular by design. So they are incapable of defeating the Republican. There is no alternate vision, they are playing defenseon what the Republicans do.

        So while it might be better than the alternative, the alternative is inevitably going to happen because they suck.
