    Oh you didn’t like Harris’ . . . what. Appeal? Her . . policy positions? And in the face of all of the insanity and horror you’ll now experience and all the pain you’ll watch people go through, you’re still fussy about it huh?

    Is it still confusing? Is it? That’s a shame. It could not be a simpler choice. Hit yourself and the people you love in the head with a brick, or have some okay ice cream. You still wanna complain about the ice cream.

      Sure, I’m not a fan of Harris. I wouldn’t support anyone who will arm a genocide.

      But this isn’t about my position. This is about years of polling showing that Harris was always unpopular. You claimed people other than the Dems were to blame. So again, how did anyone trick the Dems into running a nominee who couldn’t win?

        No. No, it’s not.

        This is about letting trump win by not supporting his one probablistic victorious challenger.

        that’s all this is about. Anything about Harris is beyond irrelevant. If you want to talk about the DNC today, or whatever party you prefer today, fine. That’s a different conversation. But that’s not what this particular line of criticism is about.

        My point is that there was one act everyone needed to do by a certain date to prevent a very preventable horror that will soon engulf the world. One simple thing. One binary choice. And many people here, based on thier comments before the election and even some after, did not do that thing.

        They are cretinous fools and useful idiots. They have - despite a chorus of warnings and explanations - opened the door to a generation of chaos.

          So I see y’all have decided to learn nothing from this. Getting a head start on losing the next one?

              Yes, blame & shame. No matter what, blame & shame. It’ll start working any day now!

              Or maybe earn votes? Wild idea, I know.

                Oh sure, do go on about what the Democrats should do. While you’re at it, what direction do you think Open AI should move in next? Also, any thoughts on how to shore up the historical ineffectiveness of the Man City development of youth players?

                Or, you could consider that’s not how any of that works. Here’s something that does work this way though:

                If you’re a US registered voter and didn’t vote to defeat trump, you are. to. blame. And you should be ashamed. Didn’t like the candidate? Then you failed at being involved. Dislike the DNC platform on [?] Don’t care. Didn’t think the media strategy was as effective as it cou- DON’T CARE. You had one job. One responsiblity. If you pissed it away, because you can’t be bothered to defeat fascism, you are to blame.
