    You guys don’t deserve it. This election proved to me that you’re leftists can be every bit as hateful as your right

      Leftists can definitely be as stupid as rightists, and we’re seeing it in full technicolor in this thread. “Waaaahhh, there weren’t any good options. I should be able to click on something perfect!”

      It’s easy to paint a huge group of people with a broad brush, but that’s exactly the mindset that got us here.

        That’s rich from a group calling everyone a Nazi in the last few months unless they fully agree with you on Gaza, and I’m a leftist and one that’s been at this a while, and you Americans are toxic as fuck. You don’t perceive that we around the world who are actually leftists are aghast at the stupidity of your country.

        The right was always toxic, but the left really went with it this election too. Nobody was good enough for anyone and nobody was leftist enough for everyone. And if you saw someone you thought was less left, you shouted “Nazi” at them. Not just at the right wingers, but your own allies on the left.

          You have every right to be frustrated and angry, and if it helps you to direct that anger at me, then go for it. I want you to know that even though it feels like there are so many people against you, there are people around the world you’ve never met that are pulling for you. I sincerely wish you the best, and I hope that you’re able to find happiness.

          Nailed it. The Dems didn’t fail the voters, the voters failed themselves. Some fell in love with a con man and some sat on their purity pedestals and refused to help. America is full of all kinds of idiots.

            oh so sanctimonious “purity pedestals” like, Stop abetting an exterminationist campaign

            It was only broadly popular with most of the country and polled well in swing states; thank goodness party leadership had the stones to stick to their values and loose on this issue. Nobody to blame here but people who didn’t make campaign choices and do not have access to the levers of power!

      Why do liberals have to get in the way and make enemies of us? We’ll have to go through you all then.

      Leftism isn’t a stranger to being attacked on all sides and being pushed to the margins, but we’re still here generation after generation even as the most rich and powerful nations organize their militaries and media against us.

      You’re from El Salvador. Should I suggest that El Salvadorians deserve MS-13 because you’re stupid brown people who can’t get away from drugs?

      No, you bigoted piece of shit.

        That suggestion would only be as bigoted as calling criticism from an El Salvadoran bigoted. I’m a white male American and I say America is full of idiots. That was how Trump got into the White House to begin with, and it’s why he’s going back. It’s not either party’s fault, it’s that the majority of Americans are just stupid.

        They’re not hateful, just too stupid to face the reality that one of the two viable choices they had was clearly much better than the other.

      The DNC isn’t entitled to Americans votes. They lost us and lost folks to the Republicans because they promised to fix the economy and are actually talking to people directly. The DNC is fucking dead to me.

      I voted Kamala but I knew she didn’t stand a chance. I knew we were cooked when it was Biden/Kamala

        Thank you for choosing Kamala even though you didn’t want to. We’re in this mess because too many people were the cartoon character somebody posted above.

      That’s a solid take.

      Far left and far right are just “far”.

      Far from truth, reality or the burden of existing in a social system with people they don’t agree with.

      This makes them mad and they traded their honor and honesty to pwn the libs.

      The only difference between tankies and the magats is a red hat made in a Chinese sweatshop.

          What failed was millions of people deciding that walking across broken glass barefoot was better than wearing shoes they didn’t like.

          This country is full of fucking idiots.
