Dont make the mistake of feeling responsible for this. Sure theres some things you can do to help but its 99.99999999999999% out of your control.

Fwiw youre helping by not being another lib whos just gonna run away to bluesky.

Terminally online fs

Plus I think socialized medicine and healthcare would help a lot of problems fix themselves. Lets be real, a lot of these people are just sick in the head qnd desperately need help they probably cant afford. Im sure some of them would refuse but just having free access to that help would definitely have a positive long term impact.

I definitely agree to some extent. Theres always people youll judt never save.

Denied our birthright to free vbucks bro

Well.... i had a point evidently

So far Trump is winning the majority of votes as well as the majoritiy of the vote in Michigan , Nevada, arizona, georgia and Pennsylvania.

There is no "muh 3rd party" ing out of this.

Kamala.

Only because if Trump represents the culmination of problems we have to deal with under capitalism; Kamala represents putting those problems off and not dealing with them as long as possible.

Nailed the logo for both parties anyways

Its sad that honestly I dont think its out of your average cops wheelhouse to gun down a 65 year old lib wearing a pussy hat for no reason.

Honestly if Kamala wins, well get a nightmare scenario where liberals are going to pretend theyre the bastions of the fight against fascism or whatever every four years. Theyre just going to do straight up fascist shit in the name of "defending democracy".

Why do people act like Trump is gonna ban porn, shut the border, and shove trans children in concentration camps?

Dudes gonna govern like 3 millimeters to the right of Bill Clinton and do the usual Trump stuff of making a show of it all.

Still probably more predictive than that goober who rambles about the keys to the whote house or whatever

The reality is that their idea of a "democracy" is a fundemental perversion of human nature.

Our neoliberal "democracy" was founded by and for the interests of property owners. The safeguarded institutions that make libs cream their pants are the same onstitutions designed to protect the government from revolts by poor people.

We can see by nearly every objective measure that neoliberal capitalism has deteriorated our living conditions year after year. It is a cancer that is all consuming, constant and lacks any empathy whatsoever. It will not and can not be stopped unless it is forcefully destoryed. It cannot be "improved from within" for the same reason that dementia, cancer or any other similarly all-consuming illness cannot just be subsided on a long term basis.

As such, Donald Trump becomes a viable candidate. He is the mirror image of American values. Maybe we dont like it, but to some degree we need to acknowledge as such. He is the epitome of what our founding fathers cherished and valued. And only such a system of neoliberal capitalism could elevate someone like him to a high status. In many ways, he is the ultimate embodiment of the American President.

After all, what is the use of such "democracy" when all such a system can produce are two different ways of looking into the void?

I've been saying to people since biden dropped out that a lot of his terrible campaign staff was directly transferred to her. Not to underestimate their ability to fuck this up.

If she literally even supported conditioning aid to Israel and focused on abortion this would be a slam dunk.

Is she taking campaign advice from chat GPT? What the fuck???

Its not Rogan alone.

Its a clear cut general election strategy all around to target a certain type of younger (usually also white) center right independents. The guy who smokes weed, watches MMA, still listens to Eminem, maybe voted for Gary Johnson in 2016 if at all, Says hes socially liberal and fiscally conservative but also hates trans people.

This is a weird non voter demographic that presidential candidates usually dont touch with a ten foot pole. This definitely favors Trump in an extremely close race where any little bit could make the difference. Especially when Kamala is going after a group of voters that are already safe dems

Abortion is such a slam fucking dunk issue too. Why the fuck is she not screaming about this from the rooftops? Is there a weak point on this issue that we dont know that could be a scandal in bringing up abortion?

Tbh ive spent a lot of time in more nonpolitical spaces online. The energy to engage in politics in any online place is just more than its worth outside of leftwing spaces.

Like tbh this is the first time in my life where Id say public discourse in gaming and sports is far more productive, positive and less personal than politics. We know where everyone stands at this point and if you still support genocide then thays a scar on your soul that you'll have to reckon with.

The secret is that liberals love to talk about him more than anyone else. And the more you tell these kinds of people "not to do something " the more theyll want to do it. So when liberals talk about how "dangerous" or whatever he is, theres about half the country who thinks its cool or edgy and votes for him out of spite.

If supposed Trump haters stopped talking about him for a solid 6 months after 2020, then its likely he wouldnt have made it past the primary.
