Trump plans to lift the Biden administration’s freeze on supplying 2,000-pound bombs to Israel and reverse sanctions against Israeli settlers.

    I think most of them were state sponsored psyops or really shit trolls. I don’t think most actual real marginally rational thinking people would have such a dumb af take.

      Trump being elected is enough proof for me to realize most people in our country have dumb af takes.

      You would think, and yet they’re still around parrotting the same narrative. Hell, there’s at least one in the comments of this very post.

      Assuming that anyone with a contrary opinion, no matter how ridiculous you might feel it is, is being disingenuous is an easy way to underestimate them.

        I don’t know about you, but I don’t “parrot”. Someone can be capable of thorough independent thought and be unwilling to support politicians complicit in/actively committing genocide. Crazy, I know.

        ^ I remember this dude was on the last post like this too. I think that “they’ve been real quiet since the election” post in PoliticalMemes that got me banned from the sub.

      I don’t think most Americans care enough about Gaza for it to affect their vote (or for it to cause them to choose not to vote). Some, certainly, but not enough to have made a difference. This was about groceries being expensive.

        It was a combined effort to suppress voter turnout. Provide every possible reason to tap into that bernie bro “the democrats deserve to lose because they betrayed me” mindset.

            The problem being that means too many people don’t show up, and only the fanatics get a say. And they have a lot more than us.

              That’s exactly my point. People should go and vote against fascism, but apparently they won’t.

              And Harris wasn’t inspiring enough to get them out to vote for her instead of just against him.

                Your point seemed to be “She sucks, maybe not as much as the other guy, but still sucks”, which is not exactly inspiring in and of itself. maybe you should do less to try and discredit the currently most viable defense we have against people like Trump.

                You have serious problems if you needs additional inspiration beyond literal fascism.

                  Thank God some lemmys here have actual brains. These folks will scream up and down the street to anyone who will listen how horrible the Dem candidate is, and then wonder why voter turnout is low despite swearing they “totally went out and voted for Dems” even when they didn’t want to. Sure.

                    I never spoke out about the Dem candidate before the election. It had its stakes, and backing the blue no matter who made sense then.

                    After the election loss, now, is the time to reflect and see what went wrong.

                    You can’t replace the voters, so if nothing changes now, nothing will change in four years

          That fake “Bernie bro” mindset, you mean. No genuine Bernie bro failed to vote (D) in the general, by definition, because that’s what Bernie himself recommended.
