        I know but a lot of this both sides rhetoric just reduces voter turnout out and the republicans win.

          The thing that reduces voter turnout the most is Dems taking “centrist” positions.

            one side believes discrimination is completely unacceptable and the other belives it in necessary, there won’t be any bridges between those sides anytime soon

                thinking about my argument more made me realize that actually all sides love discrimination, it’s just that sone like to claim it isn’t discrimination.

                (I was initially thinking of democrats/left vs republicans because one side is openly racist and the other claims to opposes it)

                  Well, the actual left (as opposed to “democrats/‘left’”) wants to do away with the prison-industrial complex, borders, means-testing, etc, and ofc capitalism itself- all of which are just dressed up systemic discrimination. I don’t think it’s fair to say that leftists love discrimination. Some leftists (namely “tankies”) believe in what you might consider discrimination as a means to an end, but I don’t think that means they love discrimination itself

    If gruesome Newsom is the Democrat’s presidential candidate like they keep working him towards, I’m going to sit out on that one. Dude is no different from Republicans. I’ll still vote and strive for left leaning local candidates and in congress especially, but I aint getting burnt by this shit again.

      I am afraid it will be with AOC as a VP and we have to run the Gambit of disingenuous arguments once again. “How can she be a zionist? She only wanted them to have defensive weapons!”

          I have no such faith in her. From her zionism, her fighting tooth and nail for Joe Biden until the very end, her affiliations with the democratic party all the way back to her undergraduate degree, her weird presence in Nigeria during the coup, I see her as nothing more than a run-out sheepdog that’s now readjusting to just being a regular insider.

    I’m just preemptively going to write this in expectation of the influx of weirdos who will shout something about bots or shills because someone dares suggest democrats suck ass.

    1. People are vocal about not voting for democrats all the time, you just do not notice when you brain hasn’t been primed for the bi-yearly vooooote
    2. It’s election season, so it is not at all surprising that more people are talking about politics
    3. Do you really think that any government would waste resources creating a tiny bot farm for some niche webforum run by communists? Get your head out of your ass.
    4. Do you hold the same reservations when you see someone trying to get you to vote democrat? It’s not like they don’t also use bot farms

    - https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/americans-are-using-bot-networks-manipulate-public-opinion-study-finds-rcna178333

    The report found that pro-Democratic activists using the hashtag #BlueCrew played a key role in spreading the discredited idea that the shooting of Trump in Butler was fake or staged.

    NCRI identified 951 accounts that engaged in “coordinated inauthentic activity” associated with a pro-Harris campaign called #BlueCrew. Those accounts posted nearly 2 million times from July 10 to Oct. 10, “exhibiting behavior indicative of organized efforts to amplify specific narratives,” the report says, most notably the narrative that Trump was not shot.

                  Fetterman still votes with Democrats about 75-80% of the time. He is not ideal, but he is far better than any Republican.

                  He keeps allowing the Republican party to wage their illegal war, and consistently votes against key democratic legislation. Additionally, how does that statistic fare when looking only at the last 2 years?

                  Correct, and democrats suck ass on every other issue as well. People were willing to vote for them as long as they didn’t commit genocide, yet they couldn’t even commit to that.
