    And if you’re a politician and people don’t vote for you, you have no one but yourself to blame. I wish Harris hadn’t run a dogshit campaign, but she did, and I’m not gonna blame voters because she was bad at her job.

      You’re entitled to your opinion but I’ll readily blame people who vote for a wannabe facist dictator

      People are responsible for their own votes

        You can go ahead and blame them, but apparently they heavily outnumber you so I’d get the fuck out of the way if I were you.

        Oh, you mean you’ll blame them on lemmy and never associate yourself with one of them in the real world because you live in a nation split into echo chambers. Cool. Cool cool cool. I’m sure that helps.

        There’s nothing wrong with blaming them, but we still need to figure out how to get their lazy asses into the booths in 2026, 2028, and beyond.

      It’s funny how when she losses it’s a dog shit campaign but nobody was saying that before the election.

        Just because you’re not aware of something, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. There wetr plenty of people in the media who said the same thing. Hell, you can go through my post history and see how many times I said, “seems like she needs to shift her stance on Gaza,” or, “why the fuck is she campaigning with Liz Cheney?” before the election.
