    And Harris voters behavior is equally awful, they overlooked a genocide to vote for her to “prevent fascism” and “protect democracy” meanwhile the democrat party doesn’t participate in democracy or we would of had a real primary.

      The only two possible outcomes were

      • genocide

      • genocide plus fascism and other bad shit

      By voting third party, you supported the latter.

      Sure, killing the two party system is the long term solution, but this particular election was not the time.

        By voting third party I SUPPORTED THE THIRD PARTY.

        Fuck outta here with your liberal bullshit. Go be mad at the DNC for royally fucking this up.

        You supported genocide AND anti democratic behavior (refusing a primary and forcing their unpopular unelected candidate down our throats then chastising us for voting wrong) and you have the FUCKING NERVE to pretend you give a flying fuck about fascism or democracy? Go back to fucking brunch lib.

          You could have voted for your next door neighbor too and told yourself you were voting against genocide, but you’d be wrong then too.

          You didn’t support the third party’s chances of winning because there was no way that was going to ever happen in this election. Elections aren’t about voting for candidates as much as they are voting for outcomes.

          The word liberal is not the insult you think it is.

            Liberal is definitely an insult. It means having no morals or ethics or inherent beliefs and just voting blue no matter who, no matter who they genocide. It’s pathetic.

            How’s chastising voters for voting wrong working out for you? You ready to lose 2028 too?

              If you look at the dictionary definition, it means pretty much exactly the opposite of what you said. Also, the D party is not highly aligned with the definition of liberal, so you’re also wrong about it meaning always voting blue.

                The democrat party gave up on democracy and traditional liberalism after they lost in a landslide to Reagan.

                  Then why do you claim that liberal means blindly voting D no matter what? Your statements don’t seem consistent.

                    Both can be true when we take into account propaganda!

                    The dems run on “liberal” and “progressive” ideas and immediately run to the right as soon as they’re elected. Although I would argue part of liberalism they’ve abandoned is free speech rights.

                    Leftists call this shit out for what it is, and liberals eat up the propaganda and then gleefully overlook a genocide and vote blue no matter who, smugly insulting anyone who doesn’t do the same as voting wrong.

        A third outcome would have been to demand the dems not support it by voting uncommitted and talking about it as an issue the voters cared about. Bide/Harris could have changed their mind at any time, and they decided not to. each voter had 1/400 millionth of the choice that Biden Harris had. Dems should blame them for their choices.
