    And fuck all the accelerationists who, instead of telling people to vote for Harris anyway, shouted her sins from the rooftops down at the voters.

      Shouting Bidens sins was the only way to get them to run a candidatewho coukd have had a shot. Its the DNCs fault she positioned herself to commit the same sins.

        So you’re saying you took a risky gambit hoping the Democrats would improve, and they didn’t, and you got a fascist elected?

        Who could have predicted thaaaaaaaaat.

          I did not make genocide unpopular, the only way the dems could have won was if they did everything in their power to fight Republicans and improve people’s material conditions and promised even more after the election. The only thing I could do was try to stop them from deluding themselves that they could win with dogshit policy and 4 years of telling their constituents to eat shit while working with Republicans.

            I can’t tell if I have a higher opinion of you because I think you could have done better, or if I have a lower opinion of you because you won’t accept you failed. Either way no, you didn’t choose the best strategy you could have.

              The only strategy that could have worked was to get the dems to run an electable platform. Telling critics to shut up and vote helps them maintain the delusion the can win with the right messaging or moving further to the right. Nothing I could possibly say to a random potential voter will be as effective as “the dems ar e the reason you have free healthcare”, “the Republicans will restart the genocide in Palestine”, or “remember that time Biden’s AG threw Trump and a dozen republican congressmen in prison for treason?”

                And you thought the democrats were smart enough to run an electable platform? Well then I’m sure you won’t take it as an insult when I say your intelligence is akin to theirs.

                Your plan failed, and you should have known it would fail.

                  They have proven that they can be forced to do the right thing when they have no alternative. They got rid of Biden when even their most optimistic polls showed him losing, and Harris’s popularity didn’t crater fast enough when she started to embrace the policies that killed the Biden campaign for them to get back on course.

                    Didn’t you hear? It’s actually because she’s a woman. Women can’t win now that progressives have an obvious popular female candidate and centrists don’t.

                    So you’re saying even when they listened to you, they still picked a moderate liberal who’s complicit with genocide and brags about drilling for oil.

                    You cannot scare them into doing the right thing. They’re too stupid. Stop going after this pie in the sky and accept the world we live in. I can’t believe that I have to explain to you that the democrats are stupid. Why do you have so much faith in them?

      We are not accelerationist. We are realist. And you have your head stuck up your bum. America is an imperialist empire and fascists are the useful idiots of the empire. The chemist watches chemicals change, so do people who have political literacy. What is happening is not a surprise. Liberals are controlled opposition and they work on behalf of the military industrial complex. Love me, love me, I’m a liberal. Leaning in to smell your own brand I bet. Kahlama lama ding dong there’s nothing but a pig. And as I change my framework and I’m honest with myself, I listen to her talk and she sounds almost like she doesn’t even want to be there. The Democrats are losing. Not only because there is no way you’re going to stop this train, but because they’re too fat and happy. Oh Nancy! Where’s Nancy? Probably too busy getting rich. You can’t just watch YouTube and TV and act like you’re an expert on politics. I listen to the right wing because they are the byproduct of a failing capitalist system and they have needs as well. And they might project their insecurities on you, but at the same time, they are the confused proletariat.

        You’re right, Kamala didn’t want to be there. She wanted to lose. And you were fool enough to give her exactly what she wanted. Why did you work with Kamala? Why help her?? Are you working for the liberal oligarchy too?
