Drag rides dragons and also “rides” dragons. drag/dragself person-independent pronouns. That means drag’s pronouns are the same in first, second, and third person.
He was elected at the end of 2016. Drag is talking about the rest of that year, when America had just had 8 years of Obama. Bernie could have beat Trump in 2016, if we had pushed hard enough. The will to choose a progressive candidate finally came… In 2024 when it was useless. Some people just don’t adapt fast enough, even when the stakes are clear.
Good thing Republicans didn’t control the white house in those years, then.
There is no next time. Don’t you understand? The people who hated Harris more than they hated fascism, voted in a dictatorship. The goal from here isn’t to win the next election, it’s to get our trans friends out and start a revolution. Trump’s reign will only be ended by violence. We aren’t getting centrists’ and moderates’ help with that. They are the enemy. They are the complicit citizens of a nation we are going to war with. Some of them will try to stop us, and we need to be prepared to kill them.
It was obvious in 2012 and 2016 that we needed somebody further left than Obama and Clinton. It was obvious in 2020 that Bernie was the best choice of Democratic candidate. We weren’t rewarding neoliberalism then. But when Biden won the primary, we put our feelings aside and rewarded neoliberalism, and we bought our trans comrades 4 more years of life. Then, in 2024, we stopped rewarding neoliberalism.
If Kamala had won yesterday, then you and drag would currently be talking about AOC 2028. We would be able to stop rewarding neoliberalism. Drag would be posting clips of Harris saying that she’s overseen the greatest growth in oil production in history, and calling her a genocidal maniac. It would be clear.
But Trump won, and it’s equally clear what we have to do in this timeline.
When are we supposed to stop rewarding mediocre neoliberalism then?
When neoliberalism is consistently beating fascism.
No, it can be more than one person’s fault. It’s Harris’s fault, and it’s also the fault of the people who decided fascism was an acceptable alternative to capitalist liberalism.
Last time, his coup failed. Drag was worried what would happen if 90% of people believed he was going to win, and then he didn’t.
Because Donald Trump is clearly planning, should Harris win, to use the earlier results as evidence that the election was stolen and they need to start a civil war about it.
The news media creates reality as the people see it. People make decisions based on their perception of reality that inform their political decisions. Therefore the news media is part of democracy, and it must construct reality democratically. That means waiting until the votes are counted.
They should at least actually count the votes before calling the election. That’s what democracy is.
Drag forgot to vote in the nonbinary elections this year.
Drag speculates that 200 years ago some bad writer mixed up “nothing but” for “all but” and now we’re dealing with the consequences because nobody since then has bothered to do any critical thinking. It’s a very simple problem with a very simple solution.
Drag disagrees. Drag thinks they were actually very few things but irrelevant fifteen years ago. Perhaps in addition to being “irrelevant” they were also “old fashioned” and “pointless”. But not much else. Mostly just irrelevant.
Drag has never heard of this. So much for this being posted in “world”
Drag thinks the bot smells.
Drag thinks giving guns to murderers is the political suicide.
No, fascism is capitalism’s version of old age. Fascism is what capitalism decays into.
Does your theory explain Nazi Germany?
