“Someone that clean has to be dirty”
— maga, probably
I have literally been told that, about myself, by conservatives. This was while I was in The Navy, and holding a Top Secret security clearance. They didn’t approve of their daughter dating a “hippie.” (That was their descriptor not mine.)
They didn’t like having hippie semen in their daughter, who could blame them?

TBH violently participating in the injustice system is a financial fraud and treasonous grift on americans.
This is a real hard chart to follow… Are both sides the same??
Yes, but what about [single political issue here that Trump is as bad or worse on]?
Clearly this means we should vote for [candidate least likely to win but most likely to split the vote of the non-fascist party]!
“As an upper-middle-class white male, I just don’t like politics, so I don’t vote.”
Fuck you, you selfish little pricks.
I vote now.
I don’t think I was selfish before … Just ignorant and/or sheltered.
I don’t think I disagree with your point, but the messaging is unlikely to convert many non voters.
I’m just yelling at the choir on Lemmy, I believe. With my actual friends, especially married ones with daughters who say this stuff, I approach it differently. “You always tell me you disdain deadbeat dads, but not voting is another form of failing your daughter. You should be a champion for her rights man, not sitting on the sidelines trying to play nice with ‘both sides.’”
It seems obvious, but half the country thinks Harris controls weather machines and hits Florida with hurricanes for some reason. They show up and vote, because they believe this nonsense deeply.
Please acknowledge the threat and act accordingly. If you are in a swing state, please vote for the rest of us. Your vote matters so very much.
there was an interview where a woman said something to the effect of “they’re controlling the weather and letting the hurricane hit red districts because they can’t rig the election otherwise”. like yeah hacking motherfucking weather is somehow easier than hacking ballots.
It’s not half. It’s a minority in this country. It SEEMS like half cause the electoral college is a moronic system.

Then there are tens of millions of people who cannot complain about what happens next. Death of democracy in the USA ? “Well I didn’t vote for them” Wife/mother/sister/cousin/friend died due to pregnancy related complications? “well I didn’t vote for them” Etc.etc.
There is never a party you 100% agree with. If there is then you are probably guilty of blindly following. Your job as a voter is to express your opinion whether by writing to your representative, protesting or simply voting. Then hold them to account when they don’t follow through or do something you don’t like.
Don’t let them tell you what you want. Tell them what you want.
And yet, here we are. How is this even a choice?
Because nothing is real, everything is a game, and us poors are just pieces.
Because conspiratorial thinking has flourished, creating a whole set of fantasy worlds to believe in where anything can happen as long as it proves you were right all along when you were an asshole.
Her unwaivering commitment to genocide and corporate donors, flip flopping on major issues and her gratification of Dick Cheney
Isn’t revising your positions when you get more information or change your morals a good thing? I hate the villainization of changing your views. It’s such a childish understanding of the world where that’s a bad thing. It’s probably part of why our society is so divided now. We’ve used “flip-flopping” as an insult, so anyone who ever admits they did something wrong or changed their opinion must be a bad person. In reality the opposite is true. Admitting fault and growing as a person is a virtue that should be rewarded.
Everything you said is Donald trump. And he’s a convicted rapist, insurrectionist, conman, serial liar and everything else in the image. Again, how is this even a choice? Or do you consider chocolate and shit equivalent?
Okay. No where did I ever say I was voting Trump. It’s just feeble minds can’t imagine any other scenario.
If Harris started saying “from the river to the sea” at her rallies, she’d drop 10 points overnight. If she was still for a ban on fraking, she’d lose Pennsylvania by 10 points. Cheney is really a waste of energy but a non- factor.
Being against genocide in Gaza is a populist statement and position. So are things like sensible regulations and remembering what happened in Flint, Michigan. This whole, “you must either be for genocide or an antisemite” claim you got going on isn’t a good look.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

And she’d drop 5 more points in Michigan if she started the “from river to the sea” shit from her base that she would lose, even with 100% of the state’s Muslims supporting her.
If she loses she’ll just blame everyone but herself like Democrats always do. Obama is already trying to blame black men saying they are chauvinistic.
Both your posts just sound like someone whining because they can’t have it their way; in this case, apparently your complete inability to direct the conversation is the problem. Which would imply you’re whining at yourself…and you really are. It’s rather nauseating to be honest…
It’s always projection with these people. That and a willingness to sacrifice everything around them to fulfill their entitlement.
0 felony convictions.
I’m pretty sure she was responsible for convicting felons.
Oh she made people felons alright
Mostly black people.
Not like there’s an unclear choice when you Americans vote soon, but pleas don’t forget that part. Most two party elections are choosing the lesser of two shit options.
Sometimes they get carried away and forget the Democrat party is still a right wing party. I’m not happy voting for Harris, but I’m happy voting against Trump (or even happy voting for Walz)
Incorrect.
She’s got a shitload of those.
She’s just on the delivering end, not the receiving.
That we know of (points to forehead)
Yea “yet”
Sounds boring.
Personally, I think the world needs major powers with a bit more crazy to 'em. You really wanna live in a world where you go to bed and wake up to the same thing? Selling nuclear secrets is the spice of life.
Edit: Really? I honestly thought I was laying the sarcasm on a little thick. Whatever. lol
America already sends 20+ billion thank you checks for killing tens of thousands of women & children. What more could you ask for?
Are you not fucking tired? Imagine shilling this hard without even an ounce of thought.
Imagine unironically supporting genocide.

Yes, you’ve found me out, Republicans hate genocide. You heard it here first folks. Vote Republican according to this guy, if you’re anti genocide.

what is Trump’s position on the Gaza genocide? will he be better?
I have 0 faith trump will be better
Bless your heart.
$100 billion in weapons for Israel to keep the genocide going
Trump wants to end the Palestine resistance the same way he wants to end the Ukrainian resistance.
Doesn’t change the truth that Kamala is in power right now and she is currently using that power to make sure a genocidal leader keeps getting everything he needs to continue committing genocide.
Stop pretending that the candidate you’re endorsing isn’t a monster
She is Vice-President and does not make foreign policy at the moment and has been quite specific about protecting both Palestinian and Israeli lives as her position on the issue.
Her current role is advisory, the President decides actual policy and her’s as President would be exponentially better than Trump’s.
She has repeatedly said that she would not put conditions on arms to Israel and that her position is the exact same as Biden’s.
I don’t care that her position is merely advisory, she’s in a position of power and she’s using that position to run defense for a genocidal regime.
With power comes responsibility and I’m holding her responsible for what she does with her power
Stop pretending that the candidate you’re endorsing isn’t a monster
“But she’s the monster I prefer! How dare you?”
Humans are not so great, and I won’t miss them when they’re gone.
I understand that. It’s just that I’m tired of voting for the lesser of two evils. Can we please stop killing innocent people? Thank you.

We did that, your fascists gave us a conservative healthcare plan and nothing else.

Sorry I was suckered by your rhetoric the last time you spouted it. Not anymore.
amen
Just as soon as you stop trying to make it look like both sides are the same.
I want innocent people to not be killed. I am sorry that this offends you.
I am also sorry that you are offended that I won’t be voting in this election.
I am also sorry that you hate my ‘dumb fucking mouth’, which I will continue to use to state my moral expectation that innocent people are not killed, whether you like it or not.I suspect that, if you are to get the outcome you want, you will be perfectly fine with children dying in far off countries. “After all,” you will say, “I got what I wanted.” And you will continue to lecture people like me that we should “do your best to love the people around you,” even when you have shown you lack interest in people on a wider scale.
P.S. me saying “lesser of two evils” indicates that I think they’re not the same, but they’re not different enough to impress me. Learn to read.

Gonna be honest here.
I do not give a shit. Not a single shit.
