Hey, good for you, you voted. Most people didn’t.
They wanted Trump to win, or didn’t care who does. They are at fault. They had the ability to change the course of election and chose this way. Even trump supporters are less at fault, they’re in a cult, their brain fell off, they don’t have a choice.
Democratic party cares about opinions of people who vote for them, it’s that simple.
Those polls mean shit, if people who vaguely “want progressive policies” then turn back and either vote directly against them, or just don’t do anything. You can yapp whatever you want, want whatever you want, but if you don’t vote for it, or at least against polar opposite, you might as well put your head up your ass and express your opinions to the audience there.
People who saw Trump, and didn’t vote against him for a candidate that is obviously, demonstrably better on all the issues you can care about, didn’t do it because that candidate wasn’t better enough, they did what they did because they OK with Trump. As to who’s fault it is… I don’t know, human nature probably, lack of education, lead paint, huge number of factors.
Oh, politicians will do the changing all right. They will identify the people who vote and will cater more to them, moving further right. Many of them don’t want that actually, but since getting votes is the only way to be elected, and left doesn’t vote, they just have to.
People though? I don’t know, right now I’m disappointed in all the America, so I don’t believe change is possible. I however will continue yelling at idiots who don’t want right wing politicians but don’t vote therefore don’t express their wants. I will also continue doing public communication, maybe less yelly though.
Those are made on Firefox engine. That is made and maintained by the company Mozilla. Which is experiencing those problems.
It’s like those people who say that they don’t use chrome because it’s shit and breaks privacy, they use edge and brave.
Edge isn’t really better in any way. It’s both Google and Microsoft, like the marriage of awful
Firefox’s future isn’t looking good with all that layoffs and lost money. I am very scared that it might go the way of Opera, and then we will trully have nothing left.
Guess you didn’t listen either, since you thought they offer you nothing
And if they will spend the last minutes they had on primaries, first of all you wouldn’t participate in them anyway because you think they all rigged or whatever, and then you would not vote anyway because whoever won on primaries didn’t have enough time to campaign and you just feel like you don’t know enough about them to make a decision.
The levels of bullshit you have to come up with to avoid admitting you just collectively wanted Trump to win is astonishing really.
Progressive policies are actually popular.
Not according to voters patterns they aren’t. Comments on Reddit, threads on Lemmy and shits on Xitter doesn’t do anything if by the end of the day people who are incredibly active in those threads just don’t vote. It is either because it’s actually not a lot of people doing a lot of noise, or a lot of people who don’t know how American democracy operates, and it doesn’t matter if there is a difference. Promises of progressive politics don’t bring votes, simple as.
It is also shouldn’t be a surprise that political system not only doesn’t give a shit but also doesn’t have an idea about people who don’t participate in it. Almost by definition.
The entertainment corporation “Fox news” will tell them that the egg prices are lower than they are, and a median voter will believe it, and they will pay more money, while believing that they aren’t.
a few decades after this all blows over
Up. You mean blows up.
I am really surprised that it’s not universally liked, it’s such a good movie.
If they aren’t “glued to politics” they will not get any of the messages, so message itself is clearly not the issue here. You will never appeal to voters that don’t care about anything, they can’t hear you. You will never appeal to online left, they don’t care about politics, only about purity contest. You might appear to non-voters, it doesn’t matter they will find an excuse to not vote anyway.
The issue with this election wasn’t anything Dems could do or not do or did wrong. The issue is that America runs on hate and hateful part is united, and the other half isn’t and never will be and half of it actually runs on the same hate just scared to agree.
The only mistake Dems made this time is they forgot what America actually is. Next time they will run regressive right wing old dude and win again, but it will not be a win for anyone.
Win that I want, win for progress is impossible because America doesn’t want it.
Yeah, you’re right. I need to get back to my old instance that defederated that dumpster fire long ago.
When you knowingly help electing a bumbling nazi, but it’s liberals fault and they are actually the racist ones.
If voters needed additional motivation to vote against that, it’s entirely their fault. “You didn’t convince me enough so now I’m going to kill you”, a line that a cartune villain would say, and we all understand that it’s villain. But " you didn’t convince me enough so I vote for that one who is going to kill millions" is apparently an OK take
When did you fuckers started caring about policies? Concepts of a plans, that’s what matters apparently, and that’s what you deserve. She probably did herself a disservice even talking about any policies at all, you braindead morons fell asleap the second she started. Well you personally did, since you can’t name even one
“Small family maps” correspond to almost 90% in the “number of farms” graph and 21% in “value of production” graph, how else can anyone read it?
I’m continuing apologising for premium exclusively because it pays creators more, and more consistently. I never go on the internet without all the adblocks possible, the sight of an add makes me irrationally angry. I’m still paying for premium
