        Yes but even unsympathetic Dems aren’t very likely to attack someone for their choice of sweatshirt

      Remember last time Trump was in power our feeds were full of Republicans behaving poorly in public? (in between the police beating protesters through most of 2020) - looks like we’re going to get that back again now.

        their perception of how welcome their violence is intensified, too. the movement that killed Heather Heyer considers themselves ascendent. last time they had the electoral college and not the popular vote. this time, thanks to 10mil likely democrat voters who cculd swallow their pride for joe biden in 2020 but not for kamala harris in 2024, the very worst people on earth consider their view point to be the norm

        Thats more like reddit. Go take a look, its full of pro israel stuff. Some are even sympathetic to Netanyahu and compelete disregarded the civillians deaths in the pager attack in Lebanon and claimed it was some sort of genius strategy that had “minimal civillian deaths”.

              Most people are not very much political or interested in politics in general.

              Most people do however support actual leftist and progressive policies.

              If any president just looked at polling and supported the implementation of policies that more than 60 percent of Americans support, or even only the issues with 70% approval (from both dems and republicans). That policians agenda would be a progressive, leftist agenda.

                I actually agree with you. However, the right wing won, full stop unfortunately.

                Arguing “no true leftist” or “Your side” is pointless. The Right won and no amount of semantics or told you so is going to change the results.

                So when they start mass deporting or rounding up trans people we can just say “the dems didn’t run progressive enough policie for me” and wash our hands of it I guess.

                  Trump won every swing state. He lost my state and all of my states electoral college delegates are going to Harris. I could have voted for Mickey Mouse and this fact would not be different.

                  Other voters in swing states had real issues with the economy, crime, and less so the genocide in Israel.

                  Kamala unfortunately pivoted to the right and embraced republicans and corporate CEO’s. Why vote for republican light (Kamala) when you can just vote republican (Trump)? I assume this is what people were thinking.

                “Your” party didn’t even show up, why would anyone listen to them?

                Edit: hey at least a couple of you learned how to vote! Maybe try doing that irl and not just on the internet!

        Wait a second. You would assume the person votes for Biden/Harris because they support Israel while trying to keep Israel under control. You don’t assume the person voted for the person who said he wants Israel to “finish the job” and enacted a Muslim travel ban?

        Are you really that stupid? Or are you just trying to make a political point?

        Just wait until you see what Trump does for Palestine, boy are you in for a rude awakening. Congrats on sticking it to the democrats, I guess. Enjoy the next four years.
