It’s Joever for the Democrats no lie. I know polls are still pretty even and something could happen to give them a shot in the arm but honestly all the videos I’ve been watching and conversations I’ve been having IRL are just pointing to a complete anti-Democrat vibe. Watching a few videos that are saying the same thing and it could just be algorithm bias but idk. I don’t even mean just for 2024 election like long term this party is fucked. I used to think they were going to be bent over and moved out of the way by the Republicans (consequently establishing a further fascist government) because Dems are spineless but they’re actually doing such a terrible job that they’re going to get voted out and allow the Republicans to further fascist-ize the US if that’s even possible.

I’m low-key here for it, going to be interesting but I’m very scared for marginalized people and the proleys in general.

    It’s okay they’ll just blame Black people for not voting instead of coming up with any sort of comprehensive plan that actually matches our interests

      Noo you OWE the Democrats your vote to prevent FASCISM and if you DON’T vote for us you actually are to blame for the further oppression of your people (which will happen under us, too)

      If you don’t vote for this shitty party then the other one will make things even worse and also you have no other choice and also we are the greatest democracy the world has ever seen and also skill issue bootstraps you can’t shoot your way to liberation!!!

        Be prepared for more bamboozlement under the guise of journalism. Understand that Black politics will not be part of any discussion. Making it so would create a problem for people whose goal is to win office while also excluding the people whose votes they need. Media are an important part of sham democracy. No one should expect anything more than, “But Trump!” between now and November 2024. – Margaret Kimberley

      They’re literally already telling the left to fuck off and simultaneously already blaming us for their loss a full calander year from now.

          Yup I’m at the stage of “good luck with that, can’t possibly imagine how that’ll work out for you, if you need me I’ll be over here loudly and repeatedly saying I told you so”
