...So you agree advocating against Harris was a mistake? The thing that everyone else said would be a mistake?
How are these people any different than "I care about the economy" voters who never verified any of Trumps claims? Just a little mistake, nothing to hold against them.
What the ever loving fuck are you talking about? You think when I said the powerful, i meant Muslims and anti-war protesters who couldn't bring themselves to vote for Harris? Or working-class voters who decided Harris' shitty economic plan wasn't worth standing in a poll line? And I guess you must have thought the powerless were the people who spent over a billion dollars campaigning with Mark Cuban? Is that how broken your brain is?
We're talking voters, dude. No idea why you keep bringing up POWER as if people are incapable of blaming two things at once. The Democrats blew it, no doubt about it.
But anyone that didn't vote for Harris helped Trump win.
It's literally the first comment, dude. I detail a huge fucking list of powerful people who fucked up so bad the Democrats lost to one of the least popular Presidents of all time, then ended it with, "Anyway, once we've held all those people accountable for letting Trump win, then maybe we can see if there's any blame left for protesting leftists or apathetic working-class voters." It's literally a politicians job to win elections, but this community is full of memes blaming the left because the Democrats suck at their job.
The existence of people more deserving of blame doesn't absolve the people less deserving of blame for their faults. Stein voters/non-voters are not blameless here.
I despise the Democratic Party. That doesn't make me less pissed off at the voters who campaigned against her
