It’s laughable that you claim to have done any introspection and still blame 3rd party voters for Democrats losing elections in the same post, as if it wasn’t the choice to run a brain dead candidate, ditch said candidate and do zero democracy to find another (granted, as we’ve established, democrats don’t run democratic primaries anyway), and then the replacement candidate spent their whole campaign telling millions of people watching their friends get genocided or working 100 hours a week to live in a roach-infested studio to just be joyful about it.

My brother, we lived through 2016 and the superdelegates. Democrats don’t get to punch someone in the face and then complain that they broke their hand, and the votes aren’t coming back until they start caring more about workers than they do about finding more money and WMD’s for genocide.

And we’re not winning just because the person doing the fascism wears a blue pantsuit.

Vote third party?

Yes, for starters.

Also, do some introspection. Democrats do not support democracy. Despite all the nice things they say, they are fascists. Voting against them is a moral act.

I’ve been saying it since June. I know I’m shouting into the void. Unless you’re willing to go full Player 2 or you’re a billionaire, you have no power here.

The only thing worse than the morons too stupid to see that Trump is going to do what he says, are the morons who think that you can just drop all aid to Israel overnight and nothing will happen.

That’s one of my favorite excuses for Democrats breaking promises and/or doing nothing: It’s hard. (As if we shouldn’t expect the people we elect to do hard things.)

And yes, when Israel wants more WMD’s to perpetrate a genocide, I would expect a conscientious president or legislators to do something about it and say no.

The primaries are where the accountability should happen.

Democrats do not run democratic primaries. It’s why they invented superdelegates and fought for their presumed right to run dirty, undemocratic primaries in court.

It’s this simple. Dems knew since their primaries that voters wanted them to stop sending WMD’s to Israel. Multiple state level primaries had double-digit percentages of voters that voted “undecided” specifically to communicate that they wanted change on the Israeli genocide.

Democrats just shrugged their shoulders and ignored it.

That part comes after, once democracy is assured.

LOL, sure Jan. Did we just watch the same Biden presidency?

Refusing to hold Democrats accountable is also voting for Fascism.

They really are out here pretending that Genocide Joe didn’t enthusiastically help Israel stack corpses for the last 15 months of his presidency, literally down to the final day.

I love that your defense here is: “Look at that, you’re just as big of a piece of shit as we are.”

But in reality, they’re objectively more moral than you are in voting against genocide. That it may happen anyway doesn’t change that.

Jesus, there are so many ways.

He could pressured the party to take away Manchin and Sinema’s committee assignments. He could have gone after them for insider trading. He could have gone after Manchin’s daughter for price gouging insulin, etc. etc. etc.

Instead he (and his lobbyist golf buddies) accrued even more money they’ll never actually live to spend anyway and just pretended to be powerless.

It’s going to happen.

Biden could have changed it had he wanted to, but instead, he made sure the wealthy accrued even more power.

I wake up to a quiet, clean house every day. Not having kids is the best.

That’s not 100% true. One can make educated guesses based historical patterns. Here are a couple of examples.

For instance, in 2008 when the markets crashed, the travel industry crashed harder and oil stocks tanked. The same happened in 2020 and the oil stock I bought at a 90% discount paid off my student loans a few years ago after the rebound. (Thanks, Permian Resources.)

Another, you can follow the portfolio of a federal legislator like Nancy Pelosi or Ted Cruz, because for them, insider trading is legal and they profit handsomely from it, and when given the opportunity to make it illegal Congress always votes it down.

You’re right that things can never be 100% predicted, but we can make educated choices based on historical info, yes. This is why every mutual fund page you look at gives you the name and tenure of the fund manager.

I had so many neat adventures growing up, in part because we just got out and explored the woods behind my parents house and the neighborhood. Kinda glad I got to have a Goonies / Stranger Things existence.

We 80’s kids know the benefits of risky play well.

The problem is Canada doesn’t want a bunch of Americans.

It’s going to be glorious.

Probably, but don’t let it distract you from the fact that crypto has boomed, almost on schedule, every 3-4 years over and over again.

Buy in a dip and hold.

It actually will. Don’t forget, European countries have actual laws against promoting certain terrorist ideologies, unlike the US. Digging into the algorithm will prove that his platform is promoting illegal content.

Musk doesn’t want the EU to become the next Brazil.

May the spirit of our beloved Italian plumber be with him.

Further, Daniel needs to read up on Zuck’s history. He’s been a motherfucker since he was a kid.
