Watch Biden supporters lash out at communists and muslims if Biden fails to get reelected, rather than looking at the horrendous position the Democrats have taken.

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 26 points 5 months ago

The great thing is you don't have to wait! They're doing it now.

I suspect their time is spent with leftists just because it's so infuriating to talk to Republicans at all. The leftist will argue long term versus short term strategy, the Republican will argue about what his imaginary friend wants.

Lol I've been yelled at so much today I can't even tell if this is sarcastic

Watch LGBTQ+ people get genocided right here in America because lefties decided not to vote against Fascism. Remind us again that you didn't vote against it when that happens and see how people react.

Conservative with a gun

LGBTQ dead body

Liberal: "Leftists did this. Now vote for me so I can pardon the conservative."

We're armed, although liberals are doing everything they can to prevent it.

Red states are expanding their 2A rights while blue states limit their own. You have fascist militias popping up all over the place and what legislation do you think will disarm them? That cat is out of the bag. Us 'lefties' understand that Jon Stewart is not going to show up and save us with a witty quip when some christian nationalist has us on our knees in front of a ditch.

There may come a time we'll all wish we had access to non-nerfed rifles and normal capacity magazines. Liberals are doing nothing productive to deal with this rise of fascism.

I'll be voting democrat, but let's not pretend that voting republican light is going to defeat christofascism.

[–] Seasoned_Greetings@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

Voting republican-light might mean being able to vote again at all

[–] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 20 points 5 months ago

This is a painful argument because this whole protest vote issue revolves entirely around the refusal to take the political risk of acknowledging or trying to stop a genocide.

[–] retrospectology@lemmy.world 16 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah! And watch immigrants and migrants get deported en mass and draconian fascist law be implemented at the border....oh, what? That was Democrats too? Damn...

Well uh...bodily autonomy? No, dems had a chance to legislate that under Obama and refused to do so.

Hm...

Campaign finance reform? Oh, nope, they take the same corporate money.

The union won the civil war but the confederates won the reconstruction and have been winning since

[–] Strawberry@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 5 months ago (1 children)

As one of those LGBTQ+ people, I have no faith in people protecting me who won't speak out against genocide

[–] Seasoned_Greetings@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

You still have to acknowledge that democrats aren't going to be the party leading the genocide of LGBTQ+ people.

It's one thing to say you don't have faith in them protecting you. It's another thing to clear the way for the party that actively wants to harm you by not throwing in with the only other party big enough to hold them back.

It's not a pretty decision. But reality isn't pretty.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 11 points 5 months ago (1 children)

But Biden was able to negotiate with the more moderate fascists!

Most progress we've had since Reagan!!!!

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Actually not since Reagan but since Trump.

FTFY

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 11 points 5 months ago

As is tradition.

[–] null@slrpnk.net 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Owwwww my nose! Worth it though, piece of shit face!

[–] archomrade@midwest.social 6 points 5 months ago

Face: democratic coalition Nose: voters upset about supporting a genocide

[–] blackbelt352@lemmy.world -4 points 5 months ago

Which conservative activist judges installed by trump to the supreme court overturned Roe v Wade?

[–] DAMunzy@lemmy.dbzer0.com -5 points 5 months ago

I'm constantly fighting with liberals and leftists that only think of themselves. Harm reduction is not working.
